When Stress Is Part Of Your Job

Breathe better to work better.

Why Stress Is Rising — and Why Most Workplaces Are Unprepared

Stress and burnout are rising across ALL industries—from healthcare and education to tech and corporate leadership. Yet most professionals, despite years of schooling, have never been taught how to manage their own stress.

At People of the Prana, we bring evidence-based breathing practices into the workplace. Studies show that just 3 minutes a day of guided breathing can lower anxiety, regulate the nervous system, and improve focus and resilience.

These simple practices reduce burnout and help teams stay calm, clear, and connected—even on the busy days. Imagine the impact on your team’s performance and well-being with just a few minutes of daily practice.

Because in times of stress, breathing is your on-call therapist

 

When you spend your days caring for others- reading charts, answering calls, holding space, and holding it all together, when do you check your own vitals?

Breathing well isn’t just about staying alive—it’s about staying human in high-stress environments.

 

This practice helps you reset between clients, ground yourself after tough moments, and show up with more clarity, calm, and presence—when at work and also at home.

Your breath is your built-in support system and learning to use it well might just be the best clinical tool you never got taught in school.

This training boosts wellbeing, reduces burnout, and enhances overall quality of service.

Offered online or as a 2-day workshop by a licensed health professional.This course is suitable for all levels and is often used as a cornerstone wellness offering in healthcare, education, and public service settings.

 Why Our Breathing Programs Are Different

We know real change comes from consistency, not one-off tools. That’s why People of the Prana offers ongoing, live breathing sessions led by a trained professional (yes, we are real humans)—supported by recorded practices and monthly touchpoints that help teams build skills over time. While many employees have tried wellness apps and struggled to stay engaged, research shows that nervous system regulation improves through repetition, guidance, and co-regulation with others. When people learn to breathe together, with guidance and practice, engagement increases, stress physiology actually shifts, and calm becomes something the whole workplace can access—not just an app on a phone.

Our programs are available online or in-person, and can be offered as:

Easily accessible app with licensing options
Half-day or full-day workshops
Customized retreats at the SEED LODGE (North of Toronto)
Weekly classes for teams online and in person
Ongoing monthly support or annual packages to support habit formation and long-term resilience
Teacher training programs designed to equip your staff with the tools and confidence to lead breathing sessions for clients, students, or co-workers
