Pillai Group of Institution, Apollo Hospital, Netbiz, CIDCO Exhibition & Convention Center and Biospectrum are among the other event partners.
A grand felicitation ceremony has been planned for the NMMC employees working in the cleanliness, hygiene and sanitation department.

They not only made our lives comfortable and happy to stay in the city but also in the process helped Navi Mumbai achieve the distinction as the seventh cleanest city in India. In addition, the Netbiz team will be felicitated for their untiring support in the successful social media campaign for Heartfulness Wellness Fest.
The three-day long wellness sessions will begin on 5th of April with a curtain raiser. Each session will be a unique blend of fitness exercises like brain exercises, yoga, aerobics, karayobics, zumba along with power-packed health expert sessions including those on diet and nutrition, stress management, obesity and diabetes. Body relaxation, mind rejuvenation and Heart-based meditation techniques will be the soul of each session.
“These sessions will be participative, fun-filled and engaging with a variety of programs of interest to kids, youth as well as adults” says Nivedita Shreyans, Head Core Organizing Team, Wellness Fest. Day-one program will commence in the evening (6:30 pm to 9:30 pm) with a professional folk dance performance and chair yoga followed by mind-boggling brain exercises for all participants. Later, a live demo by children of Brighter Minds, an educational initiative, will showcase their amazing cognitive skills. It will be followed by an expert talk and an experiential journey into the science of meditation and relaxation.
On the penultimate day, in the morning (7:00 am to 9:00 am) Bollywood fitness jam session will be followed by dance performances including folk dance (Lezim) widely enjoyed by the people of Maharashtra. Renowned cardiologist Haresh Mehta of Lilavati and Hinduja Hospital is expected to speak his heart out for those seeking freedom from heart-related diseases. His relaxation techniques will be followed by sessions on meditation for the benefit of all. “It is in the stillness of the mind that we perceive the heart with clarity” points out Kamlesh D. Patel, Global Guide of Heartfulness and author of the new book titled ‘Designing Destiny: The Heartfulness Way’. By constantly observing the inner weather, we steer through life wisely, steadfastly, sans regrets, he says.
On the last day, there will be zumba, power yoga sessions performed to energetic music. It will be followed by incredible brain exercises to effectively use both sides of your brain. Meditation interspersed with magic of inner connection will bring down the curtains of this mega inaugural event. However, such three-day wellness sessions are expected to be held regularly on the first weekend of every month for the whole of this year to allow Navi Mumbaikars to bask in joy, peace and health under one roof.
