Feelin' Good Collective offers corporate mindfulness, meditation and wellness workshops for your team.Founded by Naina Dewan and Brenda Zhou, they met as colleagues and connected as friends from their shared passion for mindfulness. Together, they hosted voluntary mindfulness and wellness workshops that ignited a spark of curiosity and eagerness to learn amongst their peers. This led to the start of Feelin’ Good.We've experienced corporate burnout first hand and understand the many challenges, like being unable to switch off after work, handling imposter syndrome, connecting with coworkers while working remotely — you name it, we've felt it. Our mission is to empower teams with stress coping mechanisms based on the principles of science and age-old yogic wisdom. Join us to re-imagine workplace culture, one breath at a time.
