Co-Founder of Headspace
Andy Puddicombe Biography
Andy Puddicombe is a meditation and mindfulness expert. An accomplished presenter and writer, Puddicombe is the voice of all things Headspace.
In his early 20s, midway through a university degree in sports science, Puddicombe made the unexpected decision to travel to the Himalayas to study meditation instead. It was the beginning of a ten-year journey that took him around the world, culminating with ordination as a Tibetan Buddhist monk in Northern India.
His transition back to lay life in 2004 was no less extraordinary. Training briefly at Moscow State Circus, he returned to London where he completed a degree in Circus Arts with the Conservatoire of Dance and Drama, whilst drawing up the early plans for what was later to become Headspace.
Puddicombe is the author of three books, now available in 25 countries and 10 languages. He has been featured widely in international press, appearing in Vogue, NYT, FT, Entrepreneur, Men’s Health and Esquire, to name but a few. He also makes regular appearances on TV and online, having been featured on BBC, Netflix and TED.
Puddicombe currently lives in Venice, California, with his wife Lucinda, and his son Harley.
