About Zen Maitri

Zen Maitri offers scientifically-backed natural products and personalised health consultations designed to empower your wellbeing journey, one mindful step at a time. We are committed to a truly holistic, 360-degree approach to health and wellbeing, addressing a wide range of interconnected needs - from physical to emotional wellness.

Philosophy

Zen Maitri combines the deep reflection embodied by 'Zen' with the compassionate ethos of 'Maitri,' meaning 'loving kindness towards all beings.' Together, these concepts inspire our profound commitment to wellbeing through self-care and self-awareness. We believe genuine kindness towards others begins with self-compassion, which translates practically into proactive steps towards managing your own health and wellbeing.

At Zen Maitri, knowledge is empowerment. Our clinical team comprises expert Medical Herbalists, qualified Nutritionists, and dedicated students of herbal medicine, each committed to offering informed, evidence-driven guidance. Through in-depth consultations, our team helps you understand your health needs and equips you with effective natural products and practical advice to realise your wellness goals.

We believe health journeys thrive on education and emotional support. That’s why we not only provide guidance on nutrition, herbal remedies, and lifestyle adjustments but also offer empathetic support to encourage your emotional resilience and motivation.

Principles of Natural Health

Our philosophy and practices are grounded in three fundamental beliefs:

1. Uniqueness: Every individual is distinct. We recognise and embrace the diversity in each person's body, mind, and lifestyle. Health solutions must therefore be carefully tailored rather than broadly generalised.

2. Self-Kindness: True wellness starts with self-compassion. We encourage you to forgive, nurture, and genuinely care for yourself, understanding that this foundation of self-kindness is essential to personal empowerment and overall wellbeing.

3. Health as a Journey: Wellness is not a static goal to achieve, but an evolving journey shaped daily by conscious actions, mindful practices, and continual learning. It’s about making consistent, small changes that lead towards a more fulfilling, healthier life.

Beginnings

Zen Maitri was founded in 2019 as a tranquil haven on Turnham Green Terrace in Chiswick, London. Inspired by Dutch minimalism and the serene natural beauty of Bali - where our parent company, Zen Resort Bali, resides - our store quickly became a cherished urban sanctuary. With an expansive herbal apothecary housing over 150 herbs in various forms, our location was a welcoming community hub for learning, treatment, and relaxation.

In 2024, after five enriching years, we made the decision to expand beyond a single physical location. Today, Zen Maitri has grown into a wider community, connecting and supporting individuals across the UK and globally through our extensive online presence and personalised consultations.
