Activities for conferences
Here you can read more about the different activities we offer for groups and conferences. We offer activities for well-being, Japanese activities, activities related to food and drinks, or well-being. Why not book a break activity to recharge with energy during the meeting day.
Welcome to Yasuragi, a unique place for meetings and conferences in Nacka, 20 minutes from Stockholm city center. Yasuragi is a unique Japanese spa hotel beautifully located right by the water in Nacka. This is the place for those seeking a relaxing environment, professional service, and extra experiences for your corporate event. Yasuragi offers various activities for companies and their guests to enjoy.
An activity that is excellent for team building or group development is, for example, trying the traditional Japanese tea ceremony together. The tea ceremony is an art form where each step has a meaning and the ritual builds a strong sense of community even among those who do not know each other beforehand.
Another popular option is to try shiatsu massage. Shiatsu means "finger pressure" in Japanese and involves therapeutic massage based on acupressure. This can be a good activity to offer as a break during the conference day or as a dedicated session for a few hours. For the active group, Yasuragi can offer opportunities for yoga and meditation training, rowing boat or paddling, and boat trips in the archipelago. Book now a memorable conference with team-building activities - only 20 minutes from Stockholm city center.
Why take breaks?
Taking breaks during long work sessions or conferences is crucial for productivity and creativity. Studies have shown that people cannot effectively focus on a task for longer than 90 minutes, and performance significantly decreases thereafter.
Taking regular breaks gives the brain time to recover and regain energy, which in turn helps to improve concentration, creativity, and productivity. It is also an opportunity to strengthen relationships with colleagues through social interaction, which can promote collaboration in the work environment.
A short break of just five minutes can also have a significant impact on health by reducing stress levels, lowering blood pressure, and increasing oxygenation to the brain. By taking a break during a conference or a long work session, one can improve both performance and health.
In summary, it is important not to work longer than 90 minutes and to take regular breaks to increase productivity, creativity, and reduce stress levels. A good way to do this is through activities offered by Yasuragi, such as meditation, qi gong, breathing exercises, or a shorter or longer yoga session.
