A new 12-week online coaching program has been launched to help Indian migrant men over 40 manage the emotional and psychological pressures of balancing career, family and cultural responsibilities. 

The program, Nondual Midlife Reset: The Calm Strength Method, launched by Australia-based coach and meditation teacher Mayur Katariya, combines nervous system regulation, mindful awareness, reflective self-inquiry and nondual awareness practices and is available to Indian-origin men in Australia, the United States and Europe.

According to Katariya, the initiative seeks to support men who often shoulder financial, family and caregiving responsibilities while experiencing stress, emotional reactivity, guilt and identity-related challenges during midlife.

The program's launch comes amid growing attention to mental health among migrant communities. Australia is home to about 8.8 million overseas-born residents, representing roughly 32 percent of the country's population, with people born in India among its largest migrant groups.

The organization also cited research indicating that nearly one in five Australian men between the ages of 16 and 85 experienced a mental illness in the previous year. It further referenced studies suggesting many migrants with identifiable mental health concerns do not seek professional support because of stigma, language barriers and a lack of culturally appropriate services.

Katariya said the program is intended to help participants develop emotional clarity, improve decision-making and reduce chronic stress by integrating meditation practices with counseling-based approaches.

The coaching program is delivered entirely online and includes individualized sessions aimed at helping participants better understand stress responses while developing coping strategies tailored to their cultural and personal experiences, according to the organization.

Katariya holds a master's degree in counseling and has more than 25 years of experience in meditation and self-inquiry practices. He has also worked in Australia's higher education sector, supporting students and staff on personal, professional and well-being issues.
