The massive technological transformation in the past few decades has exposed human beings to vast information – it is unquestionably possible that human minds were not biologically ready to consume and process this volume of knowledge. While the technical sophistication introduced us to many gadgets and utilities to upgrade our way-of-living, the sudden change subjected us to mental-stress vulnerability. Fortunately, we have our tradition of wellness practices like ‘The Yoga’ and individuals like Namita Piparaiya who are willing to give up a lucrative career to upgrade people’s lifestyle.

Namita is a former banker who worked with some of the world’s largest financial institutions like Citibank, Aviva, and Generali. While working with big corporates, Namita was learning ways to handle stress and attain wellness.

Having realized the high-importance of wellness in our lives and equipped with a comprehensive study of meditation at reputed institutions, Namita founded her own company ‘Yoganama Wellness’ in April 2017.
