The Muslim Guide to Wellbeing - A compassionate, faith-sensitive approach to mental health and emotional wellbeing

Published January 2026

A Muslim Guide to Wellbeing is a practical and reflective companion for anyone seeking to care for their mental health while staying rooted in faith, identity, and lived experience.

Written by psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, and author Myira Khan, this book brings together psychological insight and Islamic understanding to offer a grounded, accessible, and culturally responsive approach to wellbeing.

It speaks to the realities many people face today—stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, and the quiet pressure of trying to hold it all together—while honouring the importance of spirituality and meaning in the healing process.

This is not about separating faith from wellbeing. It is about recognising how deeply they can support one another.

What this book offers

Inside, you’ll find thoughtful guidance and practical tools to help you:

• Understand and manage emotional and psychological distress with compassion
• Build healthier relationships and boundaries
• Strengthen emotional resilience through everyday practice
• Explore self-care in ways that are both realistic and faith-aware
• Navigate life’s challenges without losing connection to your values

Each chapter is written to feel accessible, reflective, and relevant to real life—not abstract theory.

This is my second publication, building on my commitment to developing anti-oppressive, culturally responsive approaches to therapy, wellbeing, and supervision.

It continues the conversation I began in my first book, expanding it into a deeper exploration of how faith, culture, and psychology meet in everyday experience.
