Lunch Break is beyond proud to announce the addition of Shani Love, our new Health and Wellness Coordinator. Shani has been tasked with implementing a comprehensive wellness program for Lunch Break guests and employees.

Prior to Shani’s arrival, a focus on wellness had been taking hold at Lunch Break starting with the development of a nutrition policy for the Your Choice Pantry. Our pantry now makes an effort to procure healthier food choices for guests. Lunch Break also developed partnerships with the Parker Health Clinic and Visiting Nurses of New Jersey to offer screenings, vaccinations and other health services to our guests and employees. Lunch Break has also established partnerships with Open Heart Yoga and the Red Bank branch of the YMCA to offer opportunities for both movement and mindfulness.

Shani sees her role and the role of wellness as one that extends beyond getting programs on a calendar. She wants to build a culture of connection and community with a focus on wellness services that empower individuals to achieve their optimal physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Lunch Break employees and guests are, no doubt, in great hands with Shani in their wellness corner!

Shani is also making waves with her message that movement matters and is a vital component of wellness. Her new programing, Lunch Break in Motion, highlights movement as its central objective. In this pursuit, Shani has forged partnerships with YMCA of Red Bank, Open Heart Yoga, and others to ensure Lunch Break employees and guests have access to several FREE movement opportunities.
