Mental health resources
Medito Foundation was founded with the aim of making mental health resources that are freely available to everyone.
The Medito app is our first priority project because meditation and mindfulness are fantastic tools for managing mental health problems. Sometimes, however, it's important to reach out to get the full support that you need.
We've collated some of the best mental health resources from around the world so you can do that.
