In short
The day is shaped around your team: a short pre-call, a few facilitated sessions, quiet time and a meal, with every activity optional. It is educational and practical, designed to land with people who have never done anything like it. It does not replace medical, psychological or addiction treatment.
What happens on a corporate wellness day?
No two days are the same, because each one is built around your goals. The Reset half-day, for example, includes:
- Movement: qigong, tai chi or yoga
- Guided meditation
- A team workshop of one to two hours
- A guided walk through the farm and forest
- A chef-prepared lunch
A full day adds a group sound bath with crystal bowls, bodywork stations (massage and cupping), a longer workshop or a talk with Carl Nissen, and a hands-on cooking class with Chef Doris Fin. Every activity is optional and invitational, so each person takes part at their own comfort level.
How do we plan the day with you?
- Tell us about your team. Share where you are based, the occasion, the timing and what you hope the day will give people.
- Hold a pre-call. For a day that includes honest team conversation, we speak with the team leader about a week ahead, hear the group's hurdles privately, agree boundaries and confirm that taking part is voluntary.
- Choose the format. Pick a single session, half-day, full day or overnight retreat, and decide where it runs.
- Add a before-and-after pulse survey, if you wish. A short, anonymous survey on stress, focus, energy and engagement, with a debrief for HR or leadership. Results are aggregated and anonymized.
Your tailored proposal arrives within two business days of your enquiry.
Where does the day take place?
There are two options. We can come to you: your boardroom, training room, cafeteria or outdoor space, with the equipment, setup and takedown included. Or we can host your team off-site on a field trip. The Lighthouse cabin on our property in Caledon East, Ontario, is roughly an hour north of Toronto, and it has indoor space, so the day carries on comfortably if the weather turns.
When a group needs more room, partner venues are available, including the Kingbridge Centre in King City, a conference campus with overnight rooms, dining and on-site trails. Read about the property.
Who leads the day?
Carl Nissen designs and leads corporate workshops and retreats. He is CEO of EHF Holistic Services Canada Inc. and EHF Master, and he trained directly with EHF founder Jinna van Vliet. He is a motivational speaker and an ambassador for Caledon Community Services, and he has been a guest speaker at its Christmas galas and at an Iron Workers meeting.
Other facilitators on the menu cover yoga and sound, meditation and mindfulness, movement and food, including private chef Doris Fin. A registered massage therapist is available on request.
What does a wellness day cost, and what is it not?
Every day is priced as a custom quote in Canadian dollars. Venue, catering and travel are quoted separately, and we confirm availability and price before you commit.
A note on scope
The programs are educational. They do not replace medical, psychological or addiction treatment, and they work alongside your employee assistance program and benefits.
