As an HR administrator, you understand this: small initiatives won’t move the needle unless they build habits. That’s why employee wellbeing challenges designed with behavioral science aren’t optional. They’re essential. These challenges don’t just engage. They foster lasting behavior change, embedding wellbeing into daily routines.

Why Science-Backed Challenges Work: Creating Meaningful, Lasting Behavior Change

HR knows that interventions stick only when they’re simple, intuitive, and repeatable. That’s the magic of employee wellbeing challenges rooted in behavioral science. We meet people where they are. That’s what turns a one-off activity into a habit.

Here’s what makes them different:

Thoughtfully simple formats that feel good to use. Daily prompts that are inviting, not burdensome.
Inspired by our Five Pillars of Wellbeing. A holistic framework ensuring the experience is balanced and meaningful.
Grounded in science, made for everyday life. Research shows small, frequent actions lead to habit formation over time.
Gentle to start, powerful over time. Even modest daily behaviors accumulate real wellbeing payoffs.

This grounded, human-centered design ensures real impact. It makes these challenges a strategic asset, not a checkbox.

The Power of Pairing: Wellbeing Challenges + The Wellbeing Hub

Based on our 10+ years creating effective programs, it’s clear. Stand-alone challenges often lack lasting zing. But when combined with the Wellbeing Hub, all that changes. That integration offers:

Improved participation and reduced admin lift. The Hub handles everything from onboarding to tracking.
Alignment with organizational wellbeing goals. Ensures each challenge aligns with broader health outcomes.
A seamless, high-impact user experience. From mobile reminders to rewards, every touchpoint feels curated.

This isn’t just a challenge. It’s a catalyst for culture change.

Spotlight on the Five Pillars of Wellbeing: What Challenges Are Available?

Each of our Wellbeing Challenges taps into one or more pillars in a way that’s approachable and fun.

Daily Moves Challenge. Quick activity prompts like stretching, walking, and dancing to boost mood, energy, and cognitive function. Habit forms through micro-breaks that feel energizing, not taxing.
Mindful Eating Challenge. Daily reflection prompts that cultivate presence and satisfaction with meals. Research shows slowing down improves digestion, mood, and stress.
Daily Habits Challenge. Bite-size wellbeing prompts that support the whole self. Science backs that brief, mindful pauses enhance mood, energy, and focus.
Stress Less Challenge. Everyday practices such as breathwork and reframing to build resilience. Small daily habits here yield big gains in mental health over time.
Dollars & Sense Challenge. Calm, judgment-free prompts to explore financial habits. Financial stress undermines mental health. Habitual reflection eases anxiety and supports long-term wellness.
Daily Connection Challenge. Reflection prompts that naturally strengthen workplace relationships. Connection is key for collaboration and belonging, especially in hybrid contexts.

Employee Empowerment Through Daily Rituals

Instead of one-and-done interventions, employee wellbeing challenges create moments that resonate over time. These routines:

Lower resistance through small, achievable actions
Reinforce behavior through gentle repetition
Build autonomy by letting employees choose their level and pace
Promote intrinsic motivation through reflection and connection
