CHAT Wellness Caravan Brings Onsite Wellness Coaching to UB Plaza
By: Neil Patrick G. Nepomuceno
Last October, UnionBank kicked off the CHAT Wellness Caravan spearheaded by our HR Benefit Partners who invited our wellness partners from ANYTIME Fitness and our mental health expert partners from MindNation, brought forth a wave of positive initiatives to nurture the well-being of employees.
ANYTIME Fitness Energizes UB Plaza
The caravan started with a dynamic visit from ANYTIME Fitness, offering exclusive employee membership discounts at UnionBank Plaza. Employees had the opportunity to engage with fitness experts and receive personalized tips and guidance to kickstart their wellness journey. It was a chance for UnionBankers to embrace a healthier lifestyle.

#SelfCare Reminders from CHAT Partner
Our CHAT Partner, MindNation, shared enlightening self-care reminders, emphasizing the importance of mental well-being in our fast-paced work environment. Employees were encouraged to explore the MindNation App, where they could find valuable resources and tips for enhancing their mental health. The 14th floor of UnionBank Plaza transformed into a hub of well-being, as employees gathered to learn and prioritize self-care.

Onsite Wellness Coaching for Positive Lifestyle Changes
The core of the CHAT Wellness Caravan lies in the onsite wellness coaching sessions. Experienced wellness coaches provided guidance, and support, for employees to make positive lifestyle changes that can significantly enhance their mental health. These coaching sessions empowered UnionBankers with valuable insights and strategies to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Creative Escapes: Drip Art and Bag Art for a Cause
Recognizing the power of art in promoting well-being, the CHAT Wellness Week introduced creative escapes for UnionBankers. The Drip Art and Bag Art for a Cause sessions allowed employees to temporarily escape from negative thoughts, manage stress levels, and express themselves through art. It was a unique and enjoyable way for them to unwind, relax, and foster well-being.
The CHAT Wellness Caravan was more than just an event, it serves as a continuous commitment to prioritize the health and well-being of all employees. As we continue this journey, let’s embrace a culture of wellness, supporting one another in creating a workplace that values not only professional success but also personal well-being.
