Mindfulness & Wellness

Learning how to pause can change how we move through life.

What is Mindfulness & Wellness?

We use yoga, mindful movement, breathwork, meditation, and guided reflection to help people manage everyday stress, build emotional awareness, and create space to imagine a brighter future. These practices can offer simple tools people can carry with them long after a class ends.

Volna Global, a Los Angeles 501(c)(3) public charity, runs this program with local partners in India, Indonesia and Thailand. Every investment follows the same five steps: we listen, choose with local partners, check it can last, invest, and follow up.
