If your team has been running on empty lately, they’re not alone. Deadlines, meetings, and nonstop demands can take a quiet toll on energy and morale.
That’s why we created the 30-Day Energy Reset. A simple, low-lift way to help your people feel more focused, balanced, and recharged.
Each day features one easy action to support energy — physically, mentally, or emotionally. Think: stepping outside for five minutes, decluttering a space, or turning off notifications for an hour.
You can share the challenge as a team-building activity, a wellness perk, or a light nudge toward healthier habits. No pressure, just progress. And maybe even a little fun along the way.
Because when your team feels better, they show up better for their work, and for each other.
Why Energy Matters
When employees feel tired all the time, everything feels harder.
It’s missed deadlines, short fuses, and that nagging sense of falling behind — even when you're trying your best.
We often blame lack of energy on too little sleep. But the real story? It's bigger than bedtime. True energy comes from how we care for our whole self, body, mind, and mood.
Chronic stress is quietly stealing our spark. The American Psychological Association calls low energy one of its biggest red flags. The WHO now classifies burnout as a workplace syndrome. And Gallup? Only one in three employees say they’re truly thriving.
But we can turn this around. By encouraging small, energizing actions — like stepping outside, eating nourishing food, or simply taking a breath — we help our people build energy back. Day by day. Moment by moment.
What is the 30-Day Energy Reset?
We all feel it sometimes. Low energy, heavy stress, and that “just-get-through-the-day” feeling. But what if a few small changes could make a big difference?
That’s the idea behind the 30-Day Energy Reset. This simple, friendly challenge helps your team recharge, one small step at a time.

You don’t need a big budget or fancy tools. Just a little planning and some good vibes.
Step 1: Set the Tone
Introduce the challenge with a friendly email or kickoff video. Let your team know it’s all about feeling good, not being perfect.
Step 2: Share the Calendar
Send out a 30-day calendar with one reset each day. You can print it, post it on your wellness portal, or share it digitally. Click here to download a printable version.
Step 3: Add Some Fun
Offer small prizes or shout-outs for participation. You could even host a few team “reset” moments together — like a group walk or smoothie break.
Step 4: Keep It Light
Encourage employees to do what feels right. If they miss a day, no big deal. Every reset is a chance to feel better.
A Wellness Win That Sticks
This challenge isn’t just about boosting energy — it’s about building a better daily rhythm.
It’s about helping your people:
- Feel more in control of their time and energy.
- Create simple, sustainable, healthy habits.
- Step out of burnout mode.
- Reconnect with what brings them joy and purpose.
Because when employees feel better, they work better — and they’re more present for their team, their goals, and themselves.
The best part? These small resets don’t end after 30 days. They stick. They spread. They become part of your culture. Daily reminders that well-being matters here.
And sometimes, all it takes to spark a fresh start… is one small, doable step.
