US-based digital behavior change company Wondr Health has acquired US-based mindfulness programmes provider eMindful to expand engagement and ROI for employers, in a combined approach to preventive care, the company said.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The new partnership leverages clinically proven behavior change and mindfulness principles for a combined approach to preventive care, the company said.

The acquisition of eMindful expands Wondr's breadth and depth with the addition of mindfulness solutions to increase the chances of weight loss success and help individuals better cope with depression, anxiety and stress, while also reducing the cost of healthcare for employers.

Under terms of the agreement, eMindful will continue to operate under the eMindful name and will now be part of the Wondr Health family of brands.

Wondr Health (formerly Naturally Slim) is a digital behavioral change programme focussed on weight management, that helps participants improve their physical and mental wellbeing through simple, interactive, and clinically-proven skills and tools.

eMindful provides evidence-based, applied mindfulness programmes for everyday life and chronic conditions and delivers measurable results by helping individuals make every moment matter with greater focus, creativity, and purposeful decisions.
