Clyx Partners with Selena Gomez and Mandy Teefey’s Wondermind to Launch Series of Wellness Events in NYC

New York, NY — October 16, 2025 — Friendship-tech app Clyx today announced the official launch of its New York City expansion in partnership with Wondermind, the mental health platform founded by Mandy Teefey and Selena Gomez. The collaboration, kicking off October 12, 2025, introduces a three-week series of Sunday wellness gatherings (10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.), centered on the themes Reflecting, Releasing, and Resetting.
The partnership brings Wondermind’s science-backed approach to mental health and community together with Clyx’s Friendship Method, co-created with best-selling author Simon Sinek and refined in close collaboration with Wondermind to power Clyx’s AI matchmaking algorithm. Together, the two platforms aim to make it easier for young people in cities to build genuine, lasting relationships in a supportive environment.
“”At Wondermind, we believe mental health is only enhanced by the ability to connect outside of our phone screens, and young people today aren’t given the tools to easily make that happen. That’s why we’re proud to have co-created Clyx’s Friendship Method and worked closely on their matchmaking AI: not to replace digital connection, but to give friendship the chance to flourish in real life”, said Wondermind’s co-founder Mandy Teefey.
The Clyx Method: Friendship, Repetition, and Real Life
Launched officially in New York City on September 18, 2025, Clyx is an IRL-first social app that helps people turn fleeting connections into real friendships. Its map-based feed curates everything happening in the city — from run clubs and yoga classes to book swaps, gallery nights, concerts, and farmers markets — while showing you what your friends are already planning to attend.
Clyx uses AI-driven recommendations to suggest events tailored to your personality and interests, and even helps you identify potential “friend matches” at events, so that you’ll always have a like-minded person to connect with. Through gentle nudges and follow-ups, the app builds social momentum, helping one plan naturally lead to the next. Because friendship, like fitness, grows with repetition.
The Programs feature takes this idea further: users can purchase tickets that enroll them in a series of three to four sessions with a consistent group, creating the repeated interactions proven by behavioral science to foster trust and deeper connection.
The launch with Wondermind follows Clyx’s successful soft launch with Simon Sinek, whose “Find Your Why: Friendship Method” program emphasizes repeated, meaningful interactions as the foundation of strong relationships. Coming next, the Wondermind partnership will expand this model with a focus on mental health, reflection, and resilience.
“Clyx and Wondermind share the same belief: real connection is the best kind of care. By combining science-backed mental health tools with our Friendship Method, we’re showing what healthier social tech can look like — tech that doesn’t just connect people, but helps them grow magical friendships”, said Alyx van der Vorm.
Why It Matters
At a time when loneliness is rising even as digital feeds grow busier, Clyx flips the script: instead of chasing likes, the app is designed around the building blocks of real friendship—shared time, shared rituals, and easy planning. This launch reinforces Clyx’s mission to scale warmth, not screen time, and to provide an antidote to isolation for young people navigating life in big cities.
The app is especially resonant with 18–30 year olds—new grads, young professionals, and anyone eager to build a circle beyond the office or beyond endless scrolling.
The Program
Beginning October 12, participants will join a series of intimate sessions designed to help them slow down, reset, and reconnect—with themselves and with each other. Each gathering blends mindful movement, journaling, and community moments that make it easier to build trust and recognize familiar faces week after week.
- Release – a yoga and connection evening to let go of stress and set intentions.
- Reflect – a city walk that encourages mindful pauses and journaling moments.
- Reset – a crafting night reset at Happy Medium Art Cafe in NYC
By enrolling, guests commit to the full program across October, creating repetition, familiarity, and the foundation for real friendships.
Following the New York program, the series will launch in London on October 19, 2025, bringing the same Reflect, Release, and Reset themes to a new community across the Atlantic.
How to Join
Clyx is available for download now on the App Store and Google Play. Tickets for the Clyx x Wondermind wellness series can be purchased through the app.
About Clyx
Founded by Alyx van der Vorm, an Oxford and Harvard alum and Gen Z entrepreneur passionate about public health, Clyx is a friendship-tech startup helping people build authentic, lasting friendships through shared experiences. Harnessing AI and behavioral science, the app curates events, fosters repetition, and makes in-person connection easier. Since launch, Clyx has helped spark over 350,000 friendships worldwide and recently closed a $14M Series A round to fuel its U.S. expansion and beyond.

PLUNE CHILL Redefines Performance and Accessibility with the Launch of the 1HP Cold Plunge Chiller
United States, 16th Oct 2025, – October 10, 2025– PLUNE CHILL,a rapidly growing leader in cold therapy and recovery technology, today announced the launch of its powerful new flagship chiller: the 1HP Cold Plunge Chiller. This industrial-grade unit delivers a full 1 horsepower (2600W) of cooling capacity, capable of achieving therapeutic temperatures as low as 36°F, while offering universal compatibility with virtually any existing cold tub or immersion vessel.
The introduction of the 1HP Cold Plunge Chiller directly addresses two major market limitations: the high cost of integrated plunge systems and the underperformance of lower-HP chillers, particularly in warmer climates. PLUNE CHILL’s modular, high-power solution allows consumers to upgrade their cold therapy setup without compromise, ensuring professional-grade recovery is accessible, powerful, and adaptable to any environment.
“The demand for consistent, high-intensity cold therapy has never been greater, yet many consumers are forced to choose between massive, expensive integrated tubs or underpowered chillers that struggle in the summer heat,”said Chief Technology Officer at PLUNE CHILL. “We took a hardware-first approach. By integrating a Japanese high-efficiency compressor and a commercial-grade 20-foot titanium coil, our 1HP Chiller provides the bulletproof performance and reliability required to maintain 36°F year-round. It’s an investment in serious recovery, not just a lifestyle accessory.”
Engineering Excellence and Unrivaled Cooling Power
The 1HP Cold Plunge Chiller is engineered from the ground up to offer best-in-class thermal dynamics and longevity:
Extreme Thermal Capacity: The 1HP compressor provides the sustained power to rapidly cool up to 110 gallons of water from 80°F to a recovery-ready 40°F in approximately 8 hours. This capacity ensures optimal performance even when ambient temperatures are high or the unit is used frequently.
Commercial-Grade Heat Exchange: The system utilizes a US-made aluminum condenser paired with the titanium heat exchange coil, a combination known for its superior thermal transfer efficiency and resistance to corrosion, ensuring clean water quality and long-term durability.
Eco-Conscious Efficiency: Running on environmentally friendly R410A refrigerant, the unit balances powerful cooling performance with responsible energy consumption.
Designed for Flexibility and Seamless Integration
PLUNE CHILL’s 1HP chiller, with its exceptional versatility, stands out as the most flexible option on the market, catering to both DIY enthusiasts and professional users.
Maximum Versatility: The unit is compatible with both standard household bathtubs (for indoor use) and dedicated plunge tubs (for outdoor use), supporting a dual-pump setup for optimal water circulation across various vessel sizes.
Mobility and Durability: Despite its commercial-grade power, the chiller maintains a compact footprint (16.5′′×13.8′′×18.9′′) and is mounted on caster wheels, allowing for easy relocation. Its weather-tested casing certifies it for reliable indoor and outdoor use.
User-Centric Controls: An intuitive LED display with a 3-button interface and auto lock screen ensures precise temperature control, while built-in safety shutoff features protect the unit from overheating or abnormal power conditions.
Focus on Longevity and Simple Maintenance
PLUNE CHILL has prioritized simplicity in maintenance to ensure the cold therapy routine remains consistent and hassle-free:
Water Purity: A built-in inline filter with 1-micron precision works continuously to maintain crystal-clear water, reducing the need for harsh chemical treatments.
Ease of Service: The system includes a quick one-button drain and venting system for simplified water changes, and a reset switch for immediate circuit protection, empowering users to perform basic maintenance with ease.
“The ability to cool water to 36°F is transformative for athletes and biohackers focused on pushing recovery limits, but the real win is the ease of use,” added Tobias Lane, Product Manager. “The plug-and-play setup and simple maintenance mean users spend less time managing their equipment and more time focusing on the proven benefits of cold immersion—improved cardiovascular health, enhanced mood, and faster physical recovery.”
Availability
The PLUNE CHILL 1HP Cold Plunge Chiller is now available for purchase across the United States.Detailed specifications and ordering information can be found exclusively at https://plungechill.com/products/1hp-cold-plunge-chiller.
About PLUNE CHILL

By emphasising creative design and effective procedures, PLUNE CHILL seeks to provide professional-caliber cold water immersion to all, enabling people to develop better physical and mental resilience without having to pay the usual premium price.

The Rise of Pet Fashion
Pet fashion has grown into a global trend, with more owners treating their pets like true members of the family. Seasonal wardrobes, themed outfits, and playful accessories have become a fun way to showcase your pet’s personality. Halloween, in particular, offers the perfect opportunity to get creative with dog costumes that are as stylish as they are adorable.

With these spooktacular options, your dog can celebrate Halloween in style, whether they’re playful, cozy, or chic.
Safe Tips for Your Pup
Celebrating Halloween with your furry friend is exciting, but safety should always come first. Keep these tips in mind:
- Pick the Right Fit: Costumes should be snug but not too tight. Your pup should be able to walk, sit, and breathe easily. Always try the outfit on before Halloween night to ensure a comfortable fit and to allow your pet to get used to it.
- Skip Small Parts: Avoid costumes with beads, buttons, or loose pieces your dog could chew and swallow. Simple, well-made designs are safest. Doing so ensures your dog can enjoy the celebration without you worrying about choking hazards.
- Watch the Length: Make sure fabric doesn’t drag on the ground, especially with dresses. Long outfits can cause tripping or make your pup nervous. A shorter cut keeps your dog free to move and play with confidence.
- Hide the Candy: Chocolate and sugar-free candy are dangerous for dogs. Keep treats out of reach and remind kids not to share. Even small amounts can make your pup sick, so prevention is key.
Join the Celebration
At Fitwarm, we’re passionate about creating pet apparel that blends style with comfort, ensuring every pup can celebrate safely and look their best. From playful dog costumes to cozy pajamas, our designs are made with love for pets and the people who adore them. Don’t leave your four-legged family members out of the fun. Explore festive styles that combine creativity, comfort, and cuteness—perfect for photos, parties, or a night of spooky strolls.
