What makes us Different?

Urban Wellness is today a burning issue. There is a need for a platform to address this issue. The Radiant Wellness Conclave attempts to fulfil this by bringing notable and successful personalities of the stature of Nandita Das, Shabana Azmi, Javed Akhtar, Milkha Singh, Rakesh Sharma, Vir Sanghvi and Madhavan to deliver power packed motivational lectures on well-being. This year has yet another list of sterling speakers.


9-dimension

9 Dimensions of Wellness

Wellness is a holistic concept that needs to be addressed from inside out by managing all the factors that contribute to it. The nine dimensions that are part of the RWC form a complete chakra of interconnected and mutually dependent needs of a human being. The Conclave is all about addressing these needs to shape individuals who are proactive in managing their lifestyles to reach their full potential.
