Groov intranet template
It’s important that your people are informed of all that is available to them from Groov. Below is what we recommend you share internally, via your preferred platforms, to support your employees.
How to use this
-
Use this as soon as soon as you launch Groov! You can access this and add to your internal platform as you see fit. For example, if you haven’t rolled out Modules, Rituals, or Channel Groov yet, you can wait until the right time to share information about this.
-
Consider which platforms and channels you can use to house this information. It should be the go-to place for information and resources that everyone can access (likely an intranet site). We recommend having a dedicated ‘Wellbeing’ or ‘Groov’ section if possible.
-
Copy and paste the text below onto your platform under the relevant headings. Insert your workplace-specific information where required. For example, the link to your Ritual Builder website.
-
We have provided some images for you to upload alongside each section, as you see fit. You can also find our logo and other supporting images in our Asset Kit here.

There’s something for everyone in the Groov App. Whether you’re looking to practise guided deep breathing, release some of your worries, or discover the latest wellbeing tips & techniques, there’s a lot to explore and enjoy.
Here’s some of the goodness in the app:
Breathing Tool – to help you relax and reduce stress
Worry Map – for letting go of worries and making an action plan
Soundscape Mixer – create sounds to help you relax, fall asleep, or boost your mood
Mood Tracker – spot patterns in your mood and reflect on opportunities to change
Wheel of Kindness – spin the wheel to generate a random act of kindness
Daily Motivations – daily mood boosters to help you stay in your Groov
Weekly inspo – check out Explore for fresh wellbeing tips each week

The Groov team recommends starting with the Breathing Tool – just one minute of deep breathing can be a potent stress reliever. Groov co-founder, Sir John Kirwan, actually credits deep breathing with saving his life when he was experiencing anxiety attacks.

What’s a ritual?
Put simply, a ritual is made up of a trigger and an action.ger. It’s important to choose things that are simple and enjoyable.
Triggers = the reminder
Rituals work well because they have a reminder (trigger) built into it. That means you’re relying less on willpower, which is important when life gets busy or things get stressful. Triggers should be things you already do frequently and automatically.
Examples of triggers include: stopping at a red light, brushing your teeth, waking up, going to sleep, eating a meal, checking your phone/emails.
Actions = what we do to feel good
Actions are the wellbeing habits you anchor to a trigger. It’s important to choose things that are simple and enjoyable.
Examples of actions include: deep breathing, stretching, calling a friend, checking in with your five senses. For more ideas, look to the 6 Pillars, or talk to your team.
By choosing the right triggers and actions, you’ll create rituals that make wellbeing easy, normal, and routine.
Team rituals
Team rituals are for teams or groups of co-workers who work closely together. Science tells us that peer accountability can be very helpful for making new habits stick, so creating team rituals is a great way for team members to support each other in living wellbeing day-to-day. Team rituals can also help create an enjoyable shared experience that strengthens the team's culture.
For team rituals to be successful, it’s essential that the team are involved in creating the ritual as a group.
Ritual Ideas
Triggers and actions come in all shapes and sizes - check out this page for ideas.
