The Disengagement Epidemic: Why Stressed and Sore Employees Cost Your Company More Than You Think (Part 2)

Part 1 explored the worrying trend of employee disengagement and highlighted the hidden culprits behind the issue: chronic stress, burnout, and chronic pain. We also saw how these factors negatively impact employee performance, health, and company well-being. Now, let’s delve into a revolutionary solution that can address these challenges at their core: LinSublim’s somatic education program.

LinSublim: Re-educating Your Nervous System for Total Well-being

LinSublim takes a unique and science-backed approach to tackling employee disengagement. We focus on the nervous system, the body’s central control unit. Chronic stress, pain, and emotional challenges all send signals to the nervous system, putting it in a state of fight-or-flight. This constant hyperarousal disrupts cognitive function, sleep patterns, and overall well-being.

Here’s how LinSublim helps:

  • Somatic Education: Through a series of gentle movements and exercises, LinSublim’s program helps re-educate the nervous system. By bringing awareness to the body and its sensations, employees learn to self-regulate their nervous system response, reducing stress and promoting feelings of calmness and focus.
  • Pain Management: LinSublim addresses pain by focusing on the root causes, not just the symptoms. Our program helps employees improve posture, reduce muscle tension, and develop better movement patterns, leading to a significant reduction in chronic pain.
  • Improved Mental Wellbeing: By calming the nervous system and reducing stress, LinSublim’s program can significantly improve an employee’s mental well-being. This can lead to a decrease in symptoms of anxiety and depression, creating a more positive and resilient workforce.

The Science of Somatic Education: A Foundation for Well-Being

LinSublim’s approach draws on established [scientific principles]({{ref “research”}}). Somatic education practices, like those used in LinSublim’s audio exercises, incorporate elements proven effective in mindfulness and various therapies and modalities. Research on areas like the somatosensory cortex (the brain region processing sensory information) supports the potential benefits you may experience with LinSublim, such as:

  • Reduce stress hormones like cortisol. 1
  • Increase oxytocin which in turn may induce wellbeing by stimulation of dopamine release (somatosensory stimulation) 2
  • Improve sleep quality. 3
  • Decrease chronic pain. 4
  • Increase focus and cognitive function (increasing productivity!). 4 5
  • Enhance mood and overall well-being by improving emotions and emotional regulation, better coping with life. 6

Beyond these core benefits, LinSublim offers a range of potential individual advantages. Somatic education works by regulating the nervous system, a complex network that influences various aspects of our well-being. The intensity of lessons and your own level of self-awareness can influence the specific benefits you experience. This means you may discover additional positive effects on your overall health and well-being as you continue your LinSublim practice.
