Kicking off a New Year with a New Benefit Offering
Posted: January 10, 2022
Human Resources shares the following information on eM Life, a new mindfulness benefit.
Dear Faculty and Staff:
As this new year and winter quarter are beginning, Human Resources is pleased to announce the addition of a new mindfulness benefit: eM Life. This new benefit, in conjunction with the addition of Cariloop (our individualized care giving support resource) and Resources for Living are all intended to provide a comprehensive support network for our faculty, staff and their family members that is particularly important during the continued uncertainty and unease surrounding Covid 19.
eM Life offers live, interactive and on-demand mindfulness programs led by expert mindfulness teachers via a mobile app or the web. The solution will help you address everything from the stressors of daily life to chronic conditions such as weight, anxiety, addiction, pain and more.
What is mindfulness?
Mindfulness is being aware of your present moment experience with kindness and curiosity. Kick off your mindfulness practice by joining the 1% Challenge. Simply practice mindfulness for 1% of the day - just 14 minutes with live or on-demand sessions - for 30 days to develop healthy habits, give back to charity, and earn great rewards.
Simply create an account and complete your first day by participating in 14 minutes of mindfulness between January 3 - January 31. The more you practice, the more rewards you earn, and the more eM Life gives back to charity.
You can also access eM Life from a mobile device. When you enroll in eM Life, you will have 24/7 access from any device to:
- Live daily 14-minute mindfulness programs led by experts multiple times a day
- Live, immersive programs led by experts covering everything from stress to weight balance
- Hundreds of hours of on-demand content on a wide range of topics including leadership, diversity and inclusion and anxiety
- Expert-led community to gain support and purpose
- Game and meditation timer to help you build and sustain healthy habits
- Easy accessibility through the web or mobile app (iOS and Android)
