Brilliant coach and course
Mike was a great coach, tailoring his approach to what I was hoping to get out of the experience and my levels of experience.
The advice given goes far beyond the individual sessions and has enabled me to finally build up momentum of meditating daily and feeling the positive effects from it. It has certainly changed my routine and life and I’m feeling far more self aware of feelings and emotions.
Would highly recommend.
Highly recommend
Great sessions that inspired me to take forward my meditation practice with renewed rigour and provided lots of practical tips for me to consider as I continue on my meditation journey
Also, really appreciated all the book recommendations so that I can continue taking my practice forward
Supportive and instructive. Made a difference.
Mike provided a safe space to explore my anxieties and showed me how mindfulness could be beneficial in my life. He was kind and encouraging, and the practice has made a positive difference in my life. I hope to continue to work with Mike in the future. If you’re struggling with tricky thoughts or your mind more generally, I would highly recommend working with Mike.
A great meditation coach
Having attended a meditation session for the first time with Mike I found him to be engaging, easy to be with and his uncomplicated approach appealed which has reinforced my expectations of meditation. This has now encouraged me to continue and I will be looking forward to enjoying further session in due course. I recommend him very highly.
Mike is one of a kind and the world is a better place for his presence!
Mike has been teaching fortnightly virtual corporate classes for Levitate London (the wellbeing company I founded) for 2 years now. And during that time the feedback from our client’s employees has been consistently great.
To speak to Mike’s character and talents — he has a curious and intelligent mind, he’s a varied teacher with a calm disposition and some serious meditation chops, and I know I can count on him for good advice when it comes to my own challenges as a meditation teacher and business owner.
He is also one of the more productive people I know. Incredibly Mike finds time to attend silent retreats in amongst having a toddler, working as a skilled economic researcher, writing a book and travelling to almost every country in the world! This is clear evidence that time spent meditating ultimately creates more time for everything else!
In short, Mike is one of a kind and the world is a better place for his presence!
Meditation experience to reframe your day
I attended one of Mike’s weekly classes where he led a meditation session. I really enjoyed his kind and open approach to the practice, and clear guidance as he walked us through awareness of the breath and body.
The meditation flowed with ease and he held my attention for the whole 45 minutes. I went on with my day feeling much calmer and grounded. Thanks Mike!
Mike is an excellent meditation coach
Mike is an excellent meditation coach. His ability to communicate in a simple way around the subject , and in a way that is tailored to your own experience of meditation, is very powerful and unique. Every time I meditate I practice the techniques Mike has taught me. 🙏 I highly recommend Mike for whatever stage of practice, beginner to advanced !
My friend and I did a meditation course…
My friend and I did a meditation course with mike over lockdown. We were complete beginner and he was so patient with us and made it fun. He showed us many different methods, so we could work with the ones that we preferred. It was the highlight of my lockdown week. I came away knowing how to meditate - which was a huge step for me!
Mike’s a great teacher
Mike’s a great teacher! I really enjoyed my beginners sessions and feel very well equipped to meditate on my own now. Really patient and a calming influence!
Down-to-earth and relatable
Mike Richards is a down-to-earth and relatable meditation coach. No spiritual mumbo-jumbo, which we appreciated. His insightful sessions helped the team at Wildheart drop some of the stress from our day and think more clearly in a strategic way. Instead of just reacting, we were better able to respond appropriately to the needs and demands of our clients. Mike also has a very calming and soothing voice which is easy on the ear. Highly recommended!
Mikes whole approach allows you to…
Mikes whole approach allows you to find what connects and works for your spirit. As somebody who is severely physically disabled his understanding allowed this to become invisible, this meant so much. I recommend him highly.

Highly recommend (& a LOVELY voice!)
Highly recommend Mike and his meditation courses/ guidance.
Professional, likeable and personable in his approach it’s clear Mike not only has the credits to support his fundamental understanding and intellect around meditation but a committed practice himself. This comes through beautifully in his teaching as he has clearly “practices what he preaches”.
Mike has a lovely tone of voice, which in itself is super calming and reassuring, that paired with the powerful meditation exercises and other techniques made his course impactful and enjoyable.
His course made an lasting impression and I often find myself thinking about something he said or invited question around.
Thank you Mike for sharing your experience with us stressed out folk!
Mike is a great meditation coach
Mike is a great meditation coach. I had tried to get into meditation in many different ways but it was Mike's coaching that finally unlocked it for me.
Mike's morning meditation sessions have…
Mike's morning meditation sessions have been such an amazing way to start our day as a team. They are not only deeply relaxing, but Mike is also a very inspiring and informative teacher - demonstrating how meditation can dramatically benefit all aspects of your life, and also talks about his own journey of practice and how he integrates it into everyday life. Being from a corporate working background, he is incredibly relatable for people who also live fast-paced city lives, and emphasizes how even five minutes of practice a day can have a profound impact on one's mental and physical health. Would highly recommend Mike for anyone who has never tried meditation or for people who have been practising for years.
I highly recommend Mike
I highly recommend Mike! Our corporate meditation session was simply amazing. Mike's calming presence and expert guidance made the experience truly special. Thank you Mike for helping us find tranquillity and inner peace.
What a find! Strongly recommend
Mike was exceptionally professional. He separates fact from fiction, oozes calmness, and even in a group, coached us as individuals. I’m more attentive, creative, and productive. I’m significantly less stressed. My colleagues are quietly asking what the secret is. Thank you!
Everyone should have a Mike Richard’s Experience
Mike has been leading our community group sessions for 10 weeks and has made the process enjoyable, accessible and relevant to a group not normally engaged in any form of meditation activity. He has a common sense and practical approach and has introduced us to a variety of mindfulness techniques as he appreciates the fact that there is no ‘one size fits all’ method. We have no hesitation in recommending him.
Mike’s meditation is world class
Mike’s meditation is world class. He has run live sessions for Mojo for groups of investors, staff and friends. His sessions our versatile and he was able to tailor meditations to our very particular needs!
He recorded content for us on multiple occasions and we always receive positive feedback about the content, his delivery and even his voice!
It’s always a pleasure to work with Mike from a commercial perspective too and everything is always made to feel easy.

Great coach, great techniques and very approachable person.
I had an introductory package of meditation sessions with Mike and highly recommend him as a meditation coach. He is personable and can clearly articulate the benefits of meditation. The techniques and styles of meditation he taught me were simple, clear and structured which work really well. I felt ready and capable to take charge of personal meditation sessions after these classes with Mike and encourage anyone else curious about the aims and how-to of meditation to book in with him.

Explains meditation in a very easy-to-understand way. No pretentiousness about it. It helped me to pick up the habit of meditation and improve my life.
