Our journey to support you

Meditators in Distress began as a result of the personal experience of the founder as well as the many meditators and meditation teachers who have had less than helpful responses when they have reported meditation related challenge (MRC). This site is born from a deep understanding of the unique challenges meditators can face, and the ways in which ridged world views, authoritarian lineage and high demand cultures extant in some quarters are unhelpful, hurtful and may end in actual harm. As a new initiative in the UK, we are committed to offering personal, thoughtful support to every individual.  Our approach is to offer reliable, secular, research‑based information along with practical guidance for practitioners, teachers, and organisations. Our aim is to create a culture of transparency, safety, and ethical care within the UK mindfulness and meditation community. Built on compassion, integrity, and a dedication to excellence, whilst ensuring you receive the guidance you need. We're here to help you navigate your meditation journey with confidence.
