We Sit Too Much

We sit too much: at our desks, at meetings, on airplanes, in our cars. This lack of healthy motion is giving us aching bodies, slow thinking, shortness of breath - and setting us up for chronic disease. Not exactly the ideal scenario for a productive workplace! Research shows that incorporating movement into the daily rhythm of a corporate environment is one of the best ways to create a healthier, happier, and even smarter workforce. Motion Infusion works with your employees to naturally integrate movement throughout the workday. We offer a proven step-by-step process that will get your employees – and productivity – moving in a positive direction.

  • We sit too much!
  • Movement keeps us happier, healthier & smarter.
  • Motion Infusion gets companies "on the move." 

Health Costs Are Too High

Studies show that “on the move” companies have decreased healthcare costs, reduced absenteeism, and increased employee productivity and retention. And that’s good news for a company’s bottom line. According to a 2010 study by Harvard researchers, for every dollar spent on wellness programs, companies save $3.27 in medical costs and $2.73 in reduced absenteeism. The impact of improved employee well-being on productivity levels is even higher. According to the American Psychological Association, on average, a U.S. worker loses 115 productive work hours per year due to nagging health conditions. We can change that!

  • Effective well-being programs can reduce medical costs.
  • The impact on indirect costs is even higher.
  • Worksite well-being can increase productivity, enhance retention and boost employee morale.

Behavior Change Is Tough

Health, by and large = behaviors. Most people know what to do to get healthier. The real million-dollar question in wellness is "How do we get people to close the knowing and doing gap to actually make these positive changes?" At Motion Infusion, we're bucking the trend toward an increased use of incentives. Instead, our programs are built on intrinsic motivators - which are essential for long-lasting change. So, instead of luring people to change through carrots and sticks, we'll help you to foster a "meaning-based" behavior change process: setting your employees on the path for long-term success.

  • Real behavior change leads to real well-being.
  • Incentives don't work over the long run, and in fact may undermine intrinsic motivation.
  • Behavior change only happens through fun and meaningful programs.

Wellness Is Too Negative

It doesn’t take a PhD to realize that positive reinforcements and building on strengths works a lot better than negativity and zeroing in on weaknesses. But most well-being programs rely on scary statistics and long-winded assessments that are discouraging. To make matters worse, a lot of the "wellness in a box" solutions out there are just flat out boring. Instead, we offer well-being programs that are fun, motivating, thought provoking and most importantly – inspire real change.

  • We start by highlighting what's right.
  • We build up encouragement and confidence.
  • We make it fun.
