Welcome to The Five Institute, where Ancient Wisdom Provides The Secret To Modern Success
We suggest your first step is one of self-discovery.
To know yourself like never before.
The unique way to understand yourself and others
Nearly everything we do, including The Vitality Test, has its roots in ancient oriental wisdom, which we've adapted for a modern world.
This content sets us apart from anyone else and will give you benefits beyond your imagination.
As well as our vast experience of utilising and adapting ancient wisdom for a modern world, kindness sits at the heart of everything we do.
Although we're visionary and some could say idealistic, the way we approach kindness is practical and based in the real world.

The Five Pillars of Human Existence
Central to everything we do is The Vitality Test - A truly unique way to know yourself. After all you have to live with yourself everyday!
The Vitality Test is where we suggest you start your journey with us. Click Here to find out more.
After you've taken The Vitality Test, and read your free report, we will share some more free content.
Our initial aim is to help you build an internal culture that's kind, supportive and empowering to help you achieve whatever you're here to do.
We want you to love living as you!
After that we can move into the other 4 pillars.
Here's How We Help & Support
Businesses, Organisations and Communities
Central to how we help and support organisations, businesses and communities is our work around cultures and kindness. That might be helping to improve interpersonal relationships or supporting a team, executive or board to function better.
Fostering a kinder and more accepting culture in the workplace also has the advantage of improving physical, emotional and mental well-being as well as increasing staff engagement and retention.
At the Five Institute, we also work with individuals and entrepreneurial businesses to choose the right business model to suit them based around our unique Energy of Business model.
Finally, if you have a community and you'd like to help your members gain a deeper understanding of each other and improve their collaboration, then connect with us and start a conversation.
At the Five Institute, we choose to work with organisations, businesses and communities who are mindful and contributing to the well-being of the planet and all of us who live here.
If that's you, then we'd love to hear from you.
