WORKPLACE WELLNESS

Let's get your team more connected.

☀️ Welcome to your happy (work)place. 😉
🎭 IMPROV
Build a culture of communication and collaboration.
How much productivity is lost each quarter due to poor or passive aggressive communication?
Help your team build mental agility, master clear communication skills, and develop a high-performance collaboration capacity through the world's most teamwork oriented art form: Improv comedy.
These fun and interactive exercises will create deep social connection within your team through laughter.
🧘🏻♀️ MEDITATION
Master emotional self-regulation.
Overthinking, fear of failure, indulging in low-priority distractions, and workplace conflict all have one thing in common:
emotional dysregulation.
Your team will learn fast and simple techniques for emotional self-regulation so they can take action confidently and collaborate effectively.
⚡️AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP
Help your team step up to their next stage with confidence.
We all know going bowling with your team twice a year doesn't create leaders: intentional practice does.
Leadership is a learneable skill, and we have to train for it consciously.
Authentic Leaders are self-aware and self-managed. They take action in alignment with their values, the goals of their team, and the vision of the organization.
Tevana means "Playground" in Sanskrit (n. तेवन)

💌 TESTIMONIALS
"We needed an onboarding experience when a team from our satellite offices was being integrated into our regional Hub. Barrett developed a 90-minute group session to create a stellar team-building experience. After the workshop, everyone stuck around for a catered dinner. Without any persuasion, the entire team sat in a circle and began sharing life stories, beliefs, values, and ideas of personal significance, it was calm and candid. I had never seen everyone sitting and talking in a big circle like that before. It was a direct result of the workshop.”
Carlos Correa
Operations Manager Midwest, Lyft
“An employee and I were having a walking 1:1 around the office. As she was describing a situation that had her stressed, I noticed her speech and walking speed increased significantly. Your exercises made me more mindful of how the mind and body are connected; I pointed it out to her and suggested we slow down. We eventually sat and were able to have a more meaningful and thoughtful conversation...It was pretty cool.
I’ve been through a lot of management training and have a lot of experience in the field, but this training was different. It wasn’t just preaching, it was practice."
Joey Baumer
National Director of Client Experience, Garten
"The Happiness Workshop was a great way to start our Wellness Week. Barrett did an amazing job of laying out what we would be doing in the workshop and what the outcomes would be. I definitely felt like I could take some of the techniques we learned and apply it to my every day... this is a great group and team building activity that people should experience. Thank you!"

I don’t know how he did it!
Without the benefit of much advance planning, and having just recently learned about our organization and our wellness meeting opportunity, Barrett became “one of us” for two days of meditations and games.
With empathy, skill, and panache he created a memorable, meaningful, and fun wellness experience.
Barrett demonstrated his agility and experience stepping right into a virtual room of 100 online attendees and led an experience that felt intimate, useful, aligned to our business vision, and tailored to our people goals.
Having Barrett lead our two days of wellness programs was a bit of a cultural stretch for my organization. So I was especially pleased when in her closing comments to the national group of attendees, my manager expressed her gratitude for Barrett and gave a ringing endorsement, “We all need more Barrett Vickery in our lives.”
David Holt
Director of National Agency Team, PR Newswire Team, Cision
“Barrett did a 2.5-hour training with my team of 13, our roles range from entry-level up to Director. He should work to secure a patent for his approach. Still, I’m not sure someone could duplicate it as successfully as he does—combining meditation and mindfulness, journaling, movement, and improv is a novel and incredibly successful approach for building better relationships and prioritizing personal, professional, and team health and wellness. We were breathing, laughing, and building relationships. We walked away from his session with a clear list of tools to implement as individuals and as a team and have stronger relationships because of his session. Thanks again, Barrett! Can’t wait to schedule part 2 in the near future!”
