Burnout is an Occupational Phenomenon
According to the World Health Organization, burnout is a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. It is characterized by three dimensions: feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion, increased mental distance from one’s job, or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one’s job, and reduced professional efficacy. Luckily, there are many tools that can be provided to empower employees to self-manage their stress, anxiety, and focus.
Healium is Mental Fitness for Human Performance
Offering a paid mental health or personal day off in your benefits package is a great start. Studies show that 94% of employees had as much or more energy after returning from vacation. Innovative industries looking for an integrated, effective solution are incorporating an approach that takes it one step further. By providing tools for employee mental health every day, your team can reap the benefits of time away from work by taking a virtual vacation.
How does Healium work?
There are so many resources available to combat burnout, but not all of them have been tested for validity. Healium is clinically-validated to work in as little as four minutes. In multiple peer-reviewed journals, including Mayo Clinic Proceedings, our virtual reality experiences reduced anxiety, improved positivity, or reduced stress.
Step 1: Grab your virtual reality headset
Our virtual reality experiences are viewed using a compatible VR device. Place headsets in relaxation rooms, shared spaces, or send them home with employees for personal use. Place the headset on, open Healium, and select the experience you’d like to view.
Step 2: Select an experience
Choose from over 55+ experiences with new content added every 60 days. Most are nature-based with guided meditations that can be toggled on or off. Immersive audio contributes to the feeling of presence. Hear crickets chirping behind you or listen to the sounds of the waves crashing next to you. Follow along with the prompts or simply listen to the sounds of nature. Look around 360 degrees. You’ll find yourself immersed in the environment.
Step 3: Improve focus and productivity in four minutes
Employees who have these tools at work are more productive and enjoy better focus at work. Healium is a solution to reduce burnout by providing some of the same benefits that employees get from taking a vacation. With our virtual reality experiences, your staff can be in an immersive environment that creates a sense of presence. Visit the beach, float up the side of a waterfall, stand on the top of a mountain…see it all in a quick reset in as little as four minutes.
