Activ8 Asia Launches “Project Mindfulness” with First Initiative on Stress Management

Activ8 Asia marked a major milestone in its commitment to employee wellbeing with the launch of Project Mindfulness, a social initiative aimed at strengthening both mental health and workplace performance. The first programme under this initiative an interactive two hour Stress Management Workshop was conducted in collaboration with Sri Lanka Sumithrayo, in recognition of International Stress Awareness Week.

The workshop offered employees an in-depth understanding of stress, its psychological and physiological effects, and how it influences individuals in fast-paced corporate settings. Mrs. Sybil Padmasiri, a senior volunteer from Sri Lanka Sumithrayo, led an engaging and insightful session featuring a comprehensive presentation, open discussions, self-reflection activities and practical strategies to identify and manage early signs of stress.

Participants remained actively involved throughout the session, taking part in a variety of activities designed to build awareness, encourage personal reflection, and support emotional balance. The workshop concluded with a dedicated Q&A segment, allowing employees to raise concerns related to work-life balance, anxiety, supporting colleagues, and handling everyday pressures. Additionally, optional befriending support was available for anyone seeking personalized guidance after the session.

As part of Project Mindfulness’ first activation, Activ8 Asia distributed stress balls and informative leaflets to symbolize the initiative’s message of promoting calm, clarity, and wellbeing in the workplace. This thoughtful gesture added meaningful value to the programme and reinforced the importance of continuous mental health awareness.

Equipping employees with the right knowledge and emotional tools not only enhances individual resilience but also strengthens a positive and supportive workplace culture.

The launch of Project Mindfulness marks the beginning of a series of wellbeing focused initiatives at Activ8 Asia. Upcoming sessions will explore key areas such as anger management, depression, suicide prevention, addiction awareness, happiness and contentment, work-life balance, and teamwork. Activ8 Asia remains committed to fostering a healthier, more mindful workforce because when people thrive, businesses thrive too.
