Some of Our Success Stories in Mental Health
Overcoming Anxiety
"Before, my mind was a room of ringing alarms. Constant, paralyzing. This site taught me to find the 'off' switch. Through the guided sessions, I learned to observe my anxious thoughts without being consumed by them. I’m no longer a prisoner to the panic. I can finally breathe deeply, grounded in a calm I didn't know was possible. It gave me my life back from the noise."
Maureen M.
Overcoming Grief & Loss
"After my loss, I was just… empty. A hollow shell going through the motions. This service didn't try to fix my pain, but showed me how to make space for it. Through philosophical reflections and mindfulness, I learned to carry my grief not as a burden, but as a testament to love. I've found a new peace, a quiet strength. I'm rediscovering how to be in the world, forever changed, but whole again."
Laura M
Overcoming Depression
"I felt like I was wading through thick fog, every day a heavy effort. The tools here didn't offer fake positivity; they gave me a lantern. I learned small, daily practices to reconnect with myself—to find glimmers of meaning again. The fog hasn't vanished, but I can see the path now. I feel lighter, capable of experiencing genuine moments of joy and connection I thought were lost forever."

Our History
The Conscious Citizen: Cultivating Collective Well-Being
The Conscious Citizen is a community of thirty-seven dedicated practitioners united by a common mission: to guide individuals-from youth and adults to working professionals-toward lasting mental stability and peace of mind. We achieve this through accessible meditation sessions, therapeutic workshops, and compassionate peer support.
Our story began with our founder, Anthony Wachira, who personally mentored the group's first twenty students. Recognizing the profound need for mental health support, he sought out other like-minded individuals who shared his commitment, formally founding the collective.
Since 2020, our methods have proven highly effective in alleviating stress and providing resilience during difficult times. While the 2020-2021 period challenged many organizations, The Conscious Citizen thrived through the power of community trust and peer recommendations-a testament to the genuine impact of our work.
Our Future
Expanding Our Impact: A New Focus on Youth Prevention
Building on our success, we are now directing our efforts toward a critical community need: preventing juvenile crime through early mental health intervention. We believe that by providing young people with coping tools and positive mentorship, we can help steer them away from destructive paths. Our plan to achieve this includes:
School-Based Wellness Programs: Introducing mindfulness and emotional resilience workshops in local schools.
Community Mentorship: Pairing at-risk youth with trained adult mentors from our community.
Safe Space Initiatives: Creating dedicated youth drop-in centers for meditation and group support.
The impact of charity donations and sales we make:
Every book purchased and every charitable donation creates a powerful ripple effect of care, directly transforming the lives of children in care homes by addressing their most fundamental needs. These contributions provide critical healthcare services, ensuring a child can see a doctor, receive vital medication, and access therapeutic support, forming a foundation for them to heal and thrive. Furthermore, in a dedicated partnership with Sancare Solutions LTD, a health and sanitation company, we are installing specialized sanitary bins across these centers. This initiative goes beyond basic hygiene; it is a profound commitment to dignity, ensuring that the environments these children call home are not only safe from germs but also respectful of their privacy and well-being. To complete this circle of holistic care, a portion of the support also fuels a third, vital venture: the creation of "Comfort & Care Kits." These kits deliver both essential healthcare items and comforting objects like a soft toy or a heartfelt note directly into the hands of each child. This ensures that while our partnership with Sancare safeguards their physical environment, these personal kits provide immediate, tangible comfort, addressing the emotional scars of hardship with a loving gesture that tells every child they are seen, valued, and cherished.
Donating to The Conscious Citizens Foundation
The Conscious Citizens Foundation is committed to funding several local Nairobi based initiatives that helps foster open, safe spaces that encourage mental wellness and raise awareness for mental health.
TCC Foundation is dedicated to fostering mental health wellness for children and families in need, a mission made possible through the generous support of donors and well-wishers. These vital contributions allow the organization to provide comprehensive aid that addresses both emotional and practical needs. This includes facilitating access to essential medication for children, ensuring that treatment plans are not hindered by financial barriers. Furthermore, TCC extends its support directly into the home, with team members visiting families to deliver necessary items, offering not just material assistance but also a compassionate, personal connection to guide them toward stability and well-being.
