Madeleine Young

Motto:Out of sight, out of mind.
Madeleine Young, Ph.D., is the distinguished Emeritus Professor at the Department of Cognitive Sciences at the University of Sydney. With a career spanning decades and an author of 35 books along with over 600 scholarly papers, Madeleine has explored in her work how human perception and cognitive patterns can lead to emotional challenges by promoting inflexible mental frameworks that hinder personal growth. She pioneered Mindful Living Practice (MLP), a revolutionary approach that encourages individuals to embrace mindfulness, self-awareness, and alignment with their core values—a method that has gained significant traction in the field of psychological well-being over the past decade.
In early 2024, Madeleine published her latest book, Embrace Your Path: A Journey Through Mindful Living, which shares both the scientific underpinnings and personal anecdotes of MLP, illustrating its application across various aspects of daily life. Her earlier book, Transform Your Life Through Mindfulness, received widespread acclaim, being highlighted in The Sydney Morning Herald and other prominent media platforms, and it topped the charts as one of Australia's best-selling self-help books for several months.
Madeleine has held the presidency of multiple academic organizations and has been honored with numerous accolades, including Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Australian Psychological Society and the International Association for Applied Psychology. According to data from Google Scholar, she ranks among the top 25 most cited psychologists globally, underscoring her profound impact on the advancement of psychology and cognitive science.
Her teachings and research have not only enriched the academic community but also offered practical guidance to countless individuals seeking to live more meaningful and fulfilling lives. From the bustling streets of Sydney to the quiet corners of people's minds, Madeleine Young's influence continues to inspire change and promote mental health awareness worldwide.
