ABOUT
Jamila Akhtar
Founder
Hello there,
My name is Jamila (AKA Mila) and I founded MyEirene back in 2021, with the goal of helping combat the rising mental health crisis by providing fun, affordable holistic wellness.
​
As someone who has - and still does to an extent - suffered from high-functioning anxiety, stress and general unhappiness, I know how problematic these issues are. It made me want to help. So for the past 3 years, I have been relentlessly researching, experimenting with and developing a wide array of wellness solutions...so that you don't have to.
I came across mindfulness at the very start of the pandemic, right when our world got shut down. But, amidst the turmoil, alone in my little London flat, I experienced meditation for the very first time, and my world suddenly got rocked wide open once more. It was new and wonderful.
​
After 3 years of copious trial and error, I found a unique, fun and inexpensive way to bring you mindfulness and wellbeing. All wrapped up in this online membership-based database and publication.
​
I hope you enjoy your time here, we are excited to have you!
