Neuro Enrichment Group Launches Innovation Studio

Turning breakthrough ideas into market-ready companies and taking existing ventures to the next level in the health and wellness space

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE. Jacksonville, Florida —August 19, 2026Neuro Enrichment Group (NEG) today announced the launch of its Innovation Studio, which partners with two kinds of enterprise builders: founders with an idea who need a team to help them stand up a company and go to market, and operating companies that need fresh innovation, new product lines, and a growth engine to reach the next level. In both cases, NEG brings a curated network of operators, clinicians, scientists, and product leaders to augment each team as needed.

NEG Innovation Studio supports the full lifecycle: starting a company from scratch, taking it to market, then continuing to innovate and grow. Its network includes operators with pattern recognition across founding, scaling and exit conversations, and is powered by four core pillars; strategy & business model; scientific & clinical advisory; product & technology; and capital strategy & investor readiness.

NEG’s Innovation Studio has to date launched two ventures:

LivingMind Practice, offering mindfulness for real life. The platform offers guided practice sleep-support education, reflection, live classes, and coaching for individuals, families, teams, and organizations. Created in collaboration with Dr Gus Castellanos, retired neurologist and sleep-medicine specialist and Certified MBSR Teacher whose work is grounded in mindfulness-based training, medicine, sleep science, and the practical daily awareness that helps people develop a more skillful relationship with stress, emotions, pain, work, relationships, and life transitions.

“For years I have struggled with how to take my decades of expertise in Mindfulness and package it into a scalable solution that could be widely accessed and benefit people in a meaningful way,” commented Gus Castellanos. “The Neuro Enrichment Group Innovation Studio enabled me to accomplish this vision quickly and efficiently by building a strong platform, integrating my knowledge base and leveraging AI to create LivingMind Practice – Mindfulness for real life. I would recommend NEG without reservation for anyone facing a similar challenge.”

The Meletis Method, created in partnership with Dr. Chris Meletis, a renowned naturopath, educator, and author. The Meletis Method translates his decades of clinical practice, teaching, and published work into a structured, accessible program — bringing his integrative approach to health, vitality, and wellness to a far broader audience.

“After more than three decades of clinical practice, teaching, and writing, my challenge was never a lack of knowledge — it was translating that knowledge into something people could actually live by every day,” added Dr. Chris Meletis. “The Neuro Enrichment Group Innovation Studio gave me the team and the technology to turn that body of work into The Meletis Method, a program that finally makes whole-person health education accessible at scale. This is the partner I have been looking for to carry this work forward.” 

NEG’s Innovation Studio is purpose-built to handle brand development, platform operations, and revenue generation for founders exploring a health and wellness, neuroscience, or brain-performance concept.

“LivingMind Practice, and The Meletis Method represent exactly the kind of companies NEG Innovation Studio was designed to bring to market,” said John McGuire, Co-Founder of Neuro Enrichment Group. “We are proud to be the team that takes the work of the world’s foremost authorities and turns it into something millions of people can access, use, and genuinely benefit from every single day.”
