Organisations & Teams
Does your team need an injection of creativity, collaboration, compassion or self-care?
Playful Wellbeing workshops are tailored to your needs, ensuring a safe, dynamic and enjoyable experience that brings creative insight, rejuvenation and lasting connection.
WHY?
Everyone has the capacity to be creative and playful. Even though these qualities make us more productive, and our work more enjoyable, we often find it difficult to nurture them in the workplace.
Playful Wellbeing draws on the power of play and the arts to enable teams - and the individuals within them - to tap into their creative selves. Together we craft strategies to sustain playfulness in your work lives and beyond.
Every workplace has its own politics and dynamics - these are inevitable. But it’s important we find ways to connect meaningfully with each other, to support healthier communication and stronger collaboration.
Playful Wellbeing uses games, collaborative exercises and creative reflection to develop understanding, communication and team-work in groups that feel stuck, frustrated or fragmented.
Compassion and self-care are often easy to push aside in busy or high-stress working environments. Unfortunately, this can lead to low morale, burn-out or high staff turnover.
Playful Wellbeing brings compassion-focused tools to support teams to reconnect with their passionate, kind and assertive selves, and build strategies for sustaining physical, emotional and mental wellbeing in the workplace.
WHAT?
All workshops are designed according to your team’s specific needs, following initial consultation with one or two team-members. Common themes explored include communication, vision & values, handling complex client-related issues, self-care in the workplace and growing team creativity.
TASTER: A 1-hour introduction to Playful Wellbeing’s approach, including creative and interactive exercises that support collaboration, creativity and compassion.
HALF DAY: A 2.5 hour workshop based on your chosen area of exploration. A typical workshop would include:
Check-in

Intention-setting
A 15-30 minute halfway break is recommended.

It’s important for any team to engage in continuous learning about how it functions, and how it can sustain a collaborative and caring ethos.
Ongoing reflective practice offers a safe, facilitated space for your team to check in and explore how things are going - to address difficulties, share experiences and celebrate good practice.
Individuals working directly with vulnerable people can face very challenging behaviour from those in their care, and in turn issues in boundary-setting, compassion fatigue and managing self-care.
Khulisa's trauma training provides a deeper understanding of how trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) impact the brain, body and behaviour of vulnerable people, and equips delegates with practical tools and techniques to manage behaviour, provide support and retain levels of resilience and wellbeing.
Playback is a unique form of spontaneous, improvised theatre where participants volunteer stories and experiences and see them played back on the spot.
It offers a fresh, dynamic way to reflect on your organisations’s needs, vision or values, service-user/staff experiences, research findings or stories to celebrate.
