Dr. Jain is a co-creator of the WILD 5 Wellness Program and co-author of a well-received workbook written for those interested in improving their mental wellness, WILD 5 – A Proven Path to Wellness. WILD 5 is an evidence-based wellness intervention that combines five elements of wellness (exercise, mindfulness, sleep, social connectedness, nutrition and positive psychology “practices) into an easy-to-follow program.

Engaging in group work paves the way for meaningful connections with others and fosters a deeper connection with our authentic selves, forming the bedrock of genuine healing. Embracing a life centered around wellness practices and being part of a supportive community is my path.”
