JAINA, in partnership with the South Asian Heart Center, is offering an evidence-based lifestyle program for Jains - the JAINA Wellness for Life or JWell program. JWell offers actionable steps for sustained health improvement and disease prevention. JWell is:

  • A wellness platform for Jain organizations
  • A wellness program for organization members
  • Championed by leads from local Jain ogranizations
  • JWell is NOT a substitute or replacement for routine medical management by healthcare providers.

    JWell is an unique approach to healthcare that emphasizes preventing illness and healthy living over disease prevention.

    The goal of JWell is to raise awareness for the health epidemics affecting the Jain community through implementing education on the importance of lifestyle changes and provide practical, personalized and culturally appropriate tips on, exercise, diet and stress management.

    The JWell website offers plenty of resources to support the program participants and health guides in starting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
