A significant milestone in Ben’s journey was conducting an ice bath workshop for Infigo’s company event, marking his first foray into corporate wellness. This event wasn’t just about introducing the Infigo team to cold water immersion, but also about creating a shared experience that fostered team bonding and resilience.

The morning session began with preparation and mindfulness exercises, setting the stage for the participants to confront and embrace the cold.

A cold, collective experience

The collective experience of vulnerability, support, and accomplishment increased the team’s sense of camaraderie.

Ben said: “My goal for the session was to help energise everyone for the day. It was a conference over a couple of days, with everyone staying overnight. So naturally, a few of you had had a couple of drinks the night before, and it just helped to reset back.

“We got the energy and the clarity but it was great to see the togetherness as well.

“I think that’s because you saw your colleagues differently – and you celebrated each other as well, which was really great to see. You could see it from everyone – the togetherness and everyone supporting and rooting for each other, which was a really great dynamic.”
