Neuro learning to be your best self

Proactive wellbeing for all. Less wellbeing loss before it happens. More wellbeing strength in times of change.

Created from work with over 2M people, 500 workplaces, since 2005.

From inevitable illbeing to proactive wellbeing

In today's VUCA world, we face more Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. Causing more illbeing than ever before:

A trillion dollars in lost productivity every year.
80% of the total avoidable disease burden.
68% want to improve wellbeing but don't know where to start.
55% are languishing, not unwell but neither flourishing.

With illbeing we shut down to change. The exact opposite of what is needed in today's VUCA times of change. But NO PLACE exists to learn wellbeing proactively, as a skill.

That's why HAPPY SHIFTING GYM was born. To move from unavoidable illbeing to proactive wellbeing.

🧠

A workout for the brain's wellbeing muscle, to deactivate illbeing.

Recently neuroscience has discovered a new part of the brain that when activated short-circuits learned helplessness. When we activate this newer part of the brain, we naturally become unblocked. We no longer feel stuck like we can't do anything. We no longer learn to give up.

Because the brain's illbeing muscle is automatically activated under constant stress.

Under constant stress, the brain activates its illbeing muscle: the dorsal raphe, and we go into 'learned helplessness'. Think of the elephant tied to a thin rope all his life, who forgets that when he is a much stronger adult he can escape. This ancient part of the brain protects us from failing when we think a problem is beyond us.

🛞

Across the 8 Universal Wellbeing Zones that must be met, whether or not we act on them.

Based on studies from leading institutions such as Harvard. The 8 Zones of Universal Wellbeing represent science's best understanding of the total needs that must be met for sustainable wellbeing. Regardless of our age, stage or salary. They are needs that must be met.

Unmet or unbalanced, the 8 Zones of Universal Wellbeing disrupt happiness.

The 8 Zones of Universal Wellbeing are a wheel because without a balanced level in all the Zones, the wheel is unbalanced and our wellbeing is disrupted. But if balanced, wellbeing becomes a force that empowers our life, our potential and our ability to be our best version of ourselves.

❤️

To make your wellbeing proactive today and perform sustainably and healthily in changing times.

With illbeing we turn off to change. Just the opposite of what is needed in today's VUCA changing times. But there is NO PLACE to learn wellbeing proactively, as a skill. That's why HAPPYSHIFTING GYM was born. To move from unavoidable illbeing to proactive wellbeing.

From zones to understanding to wellbeing skills.

That's why HAPPYSHIFTING GYM is a gym. Wellbeing is like any other muscle or skill. The more we workout our brain's wellbeing muscle, the stronger it gets. But the reverse is also true. The more we workout our brain's illbeing muscle, the stronger that becomes. HAPPYSHIFTING GYM is the only place that works out the brain's wellbeing muscle across the 8 Universal Wellbeing Zones, to make your wellbeing proactive today.
