The Archaeology for Wellbeing Method
Three-tier, archaeology-based workshops to realign team communication
Three-layer model
Designed for high-performance teams
Layer 1 Self Regulation and signal clarity
Layer 2 Team Identity layers and interfaces
Layer 3 System Shared context and orientation
The Results
Create durable change
- Increased attention and readiness to collaborate.
- Fewer misunderstandings, better cohesion.
- Less siloed thinking, stronger alignment.
Healing Hands
Physiological regulation and interpersonal awareness
A guided look at how medical touch has evolved, from Ancient Greek clinics to today’s science of nervous system regulation. The session blends brief, evidence-based history with hand-based somatic techniques to support physiological calming under sustained cognitive load.
Participants learn to recognise stress signals, and rebuild core capacities for empathy, vital for collaboration in high-pressure research settings.
Ideal as an early reset to cut stress and stabilise research teams.
Kitchen Identity
Where tradition and innovation collide
A practical look at food as an archaeological system: explore how ancient trade routes shaped the food on our plates today. Your team traces ingredients and dishes to uncover shared stories behind them.
Using material culture as a neutral starting point, the workshop helps teams map both difference and common ground without defensiveness.
Ideal for teams aiming to reduce friction and strengthening trust and purpose.
Journey through Space and Time
Contextual awareness and collective alignment
A guided exploration of landscapes and objects as data. Participants learn to read space, place, and artefacts as layered systems shaped by past use and constraints
This boosts situational awareness, alignment, and a clearer sense of where they sit in the organisation.
Ideal for teams who feel fragmented and want clearer alignment and common ground.
