Mindset is central to achieving sustainable, healthy changes in our lives. It also allows us to manage our stress and live life to the fullest, as opposed to going through life on “autopilot”. Knowing your “Why” for making healthy changes is important, as is being mindful of our daily habits and how they either support or undermine our health and performance.
NUTRITION
Food is not just something we stuff in our face when we’re hungry. It is our fuel, and also the building blocks for our bodies. Our bodies are constantly regenerating and we essentially become what we eat. Putting healthy stuff in leads to a strong, healthy body and mind. Our energy levels and focus, as well as overall health are largely dependent on what (and when) we eat.
MOVEMENT
We evolved to move. We were either running away from predators or running after prey. Our modern world has essentially engineered movement out of our lives – and it’s killing us. But we can reintroduce a sensible amount of movement back into our lives to support a healthy mind and body. And it doesn’t mean having to spend hours a week in a soulless gym. Movement can and should be fun!
SLEEP
Sleep is one of the most important activities in our lives. It’s also the one we take most for granted and try to limit. Lack of good quality sleep over time is not only deeply damaging to our health, it also negatively impacts on our performance. Even low levels of sleep deprivation cause impairment in decision making, irritability, and poor retention of new information.
TESTIMONIALS
It is a well-rounded and pragmatic program for getting and keeping body and mind in shape, one micro-change at a time.

Nati and Jim shared their incredible wealth of health and lifestyle change from the perspective of a busy airline manager. I truly realised that such change is possible even with a hectic work environment. The retreat as a kick off was just perfect in such beautiful surroundings with great healthy food and a feeling of being really looked after.

The wellness retreat under Jim and Natasa’s care left me feeling pampered, renewed and motivated to continue my wellness journey even at home under normal daily circumstances. We felt cocooned in beautiful natural surroundings, stimulated by bright and interesting people, and feasted on vibrant healthy food. The nuggets of motivational information I gathered in the courses will help me ten-fold in creating a life/work balance. I highly recommend this program for anyone seeking to master a successful professional career while maintaining a healthy and happy lifestyle.

TESTIMONIALS
It was definitely a WOW experience to realise the impact of the 4 health pillars on my wellbeing and performance. In a male dominated airline industry, it is highly valuable that a couple, Natasa and Jim bring both the male and the female aspects to the table.
Wellnesstory’s holistic program for health and performance meets the individual needs of both female and male executives. It takes into account the different needs of our bodies, and gives a tailored approach to mindset, nutritions, movement and sleep to achieve the best results for a healthier and balanced lifestyle.

TESTIMONIALS
There are no magic pills and this is no one-size-fits-all wellness program, it is a journey that starts with a well organised retreat to pave the way for a mindset reset and then embark on a properly designed, science-driven and human-centric journey to total wellness.
The powerful personal story told by Nat & Jim is a great catalyst for executives willing to improve their wellness, and that’s what makes Wellnesstory an ideal program for many, being inspired and built based on personal experience and backed by a proven scientific process.
What strikes me most about this program is that it builds on Micro-changes, aiding today’s busy executives to transform their wellbeing one piece at a time, what a difference it makes!
