Ruth Williams is a psychologist and the director at Department Store for the Mind, a UK popup and online space that allows people to explore their thoughts, ideas, emotions, and memories through objects that are touching, thought-provoking, and soul-stretching. She is the co-author of Walking in the Rain, Washing Up is Good for You, and As You Are.

Ruth is fascinated by how simple objects that encourage mindful habits can reach people from every walk of life when they need it most.
