Ahead of the 2025 UK Gathering, titled “MBCT 30 Years On”, we’re delighted to share a new series of videos with our CEO, Sharon Hadley, in conversation with two of the founders of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) – Mark Williams and Zindel Segal.

At the Gathering, there’ll be the rare opportunity to hear keynotes from each of the three founders of MBCT – Mark, Zindel and John Teasdale – as they come together to review the field 30 years on from their original work.

Across eight short videos, they discuss:

• Why we’re offering this Gathering in 2025
• The origins of MBCT
• How the Gathering will support the field in the next 30 years
• What might we hear at the Gathering
• Insights into the topics of their most recent work

“I really appreciated Mark and Zindel joining me to discuss the Gathering; it’s going to be a lovely event… such a rare opportunity to have Mark, Zindel and John together with researchers, practioners, teachers and many others involved in mindfulness.“
