Healthy Minds Innovations is Now Humin

The world needs us more than ever. Rising stress, growing mental health challenges, and deepening social disconnection have made one thing clear: People everywhere need access to wellbeing support that is real, practical, and grounded in science. "In a time of constant change, wellbeing can no longer be abstract or exclusive. It must be accessible, learnable, and scalable," says CEO Christina Glavas. "That belief has guided our work from the beginning. And today, it leads us into a new chapter."

For more than a decade, Healthy Minds Innovations (HMI) has advanced the science of wellbeing, translating it into tools people can use in their daily lives. "Our research continues to demonstrate that wellbeing is contagious," says founder Dr. Richard J. Davidson. "As our science-backed offerings and global reach have expanded, so has our responsibility. We’re deepening and broadening our work with organizations, schools, and communities to further activate our mission for human flourishing at scale."

Welcome to Humin

Humin embodies a renewed vision of making wellbeing real for everyone through science in action and scaled impact. It signals our commitment to turning rigorous research into accessible products, programs, and services that support wellbeing on a global scale. 

Humin (pronounced “human”) brings together human and within, reflecting a core truth: Our ability to flourish lives within us. Science drives it. Practice strengthens it. Access shares it, widely and equitably. This idea has always shaped our work, and now it shapes how we show up in the world.

Curious and reflective, our new brand is inspired by the science that guides us, while empowering exploration and growth for people everywhere. Humin honors both rigor and humanity, positioning us for global impact.
