Stepnell Supports Employee Wellbeing Through Gut Health Workshops

At Stepnell, we’re committed to creating a healthy, happy, and high-performing workplace. As part of our ongoing investment in employee wellbeing, we’ve delivered a series of wellbeing workshops focused on the powerful relationship between gut health, brain function, and mental performance at work.

Why Gut Health Matters at Work

Gut health plays a vital role in cognitive function, focus, and energy levels—all essential for performing well in the workplace. Our interactive sessions helped Stepnell teams understand:

  • The science behind the gut-brain connection
  • How nutrition can boost mental clarity, reduce fatigue and improve mood
  • Which everyday habits support better digestion and sharper thinking

These practical wellbeing workshops also busted common nutrition myths, encouraged open conversations about lifestyle habits, and gave colleagues tools to make lasting changes.

From Knowledge to Action

The workshops went beyond theory, giving attendees the chance to prepare and taste nutrient-rich foods and drinks that support gut health and energy. From homemade electrolyte drinks to balanced meals, the focus was on easy, achievable changes that fit real lives.

💬 What Our People Said

“The practical session was brilliant! I’ll definitely be making my own electrolyte drinks from now on.” – Charlotte Hayward

“Such an eye-opening workshop! I’ve already started making small changes to my meals, and I feel the difference.” – David Crombie
