Once, or every month
A single Workplace Reset is a good way to try ARUA during a wellbeing week or a busy period. Teams that want a steady rhythm can book the Monthly Workplace Reset: one 60-minute reset a month for six months, from €350 a month.
Want more time for conversation and team connection? The 90-minute Team Wellbeing Experience follows the same arc with more room to connect, for up to 30 people.
Founding-client rate: ARUA is new, and we would rather say so. Our first five Berlin client teams get a founding rate in return for honest feedback.

Why it works
Breathing and stress physiology. Slow, structured breathing is one of the few direct levers we have on the stress response. Studies link it to lower physiological arousal, higher heart-rate variability and better mood, sometimes within minutes.
Shared experience and connection. Moving, breathing and laughing together in sync is associated with greater feelings of closeness and trust. Colleagues get to meet each other outside their roles, which is hard to do in a meeting.
Rest and attention. Attention is a limited resource. Deliberate breaks reliably reduce fatigue and restore energy, which is why we end with deep rest and something practical to repeat during the working week.
