Our outstanding Includability Committed Employers, Ella's Kitchen, recently hosted a remarkable event with our excellent Ambassador, Amy Polly, the Mindfulness Rebel, as part of their ongoing initiative to empower a happy and healthy team.
This collaboration, facilitated by Includability, is a shining example of the power of Includability ConneXXions.
A Mindful Session with Amy Polly
Amy, known for her innovative approach to mental health and mindfulness, brought a fresh perspective to the team at Ella's Kitchen. Her session focused on rethinking mental health, introducing practical tools and techniques to integrate mindfulness into daily life. It was a day of learning, reflecting, and even enjoying a mindful moment together during the team lunch.
For Amy, visiting Ella's Kitchen was more than just a professional engagement; it was a personal milestone. “I’ve been a fan and customer of Ella's Kitchen ever since my kid started eating. So, to go from their products at the supermarket, to their awesome HQ, was very exciting indeed.
"I felt so welcome there and the mental health and mindfulness session I ran for them was received so well. Even when I got them to all sit in silence at lunch time!” shared Amy.
Ella's Kitchen’s Mission for People, Planet and Purpose
Ella's Kitchen is renowned for its commitment to creating a positive workplace culture focussed on their people, the planet and better business, expressed immense gratitude for the insights Amy provided.
They posted on social media, “Huge thank you to the wonderful Amy Polly, Mindfulness Rebel, for joining us in the barns today and speaking to the team about all things mental health. At Ella’s, it’s super important we create an environment where everyone can be themselves and encourage a positive work life balance to empower a healthy + happy team.
"Amy encouraged us to think a little differently about ‘mental health’, shared some brilliant tools + techniques with us on how to integrate mindfulness into our everyday lives and why it’s so important to create + maintain our own mental health strategies. We even shared a mindful moment all together over our team lunch!”
