Our Initiative
We endeavour to empower everyone with self-sufficient stress reducing techniques to improve mental health and physical well-being. Our practices are designed to easily integrate into your busy lifestyle, addressing the underlying causes, not symptoms. Utilized on a daily basis, the nervous system stabilizes, reducing anxiety, fear and overwhelm. This makes way for increased mental clarity, cognitive ability, and inner calm. Our initiatives are aligned with the Good Health and Well-Being section of the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Global Outreach
Our outreach programs are designed to reach low/er income and marginalized groups within their communities. Groups include but are not limited to: BIPoC, LGBTQ+, elderly, veterans, victims of abuse, individuals with physical/mental disabilities and disorders, 12 step participants, and the incarcerated.
Mission Statement
We are a unique nonprofit organization providing individuals, businesses and families (no cost for children) with practical self-sufficient stress reduction services, including wellness workshops, meditation (concentration and vedic meditation), breathing techniques and comedy/laughter for sustainable mental health and physical wellness.
