NEW NATIONWIDE TOUR
2026
It's almost easier to say whom Ruby Wax DIDN'T meet, interview and coax fascinating insights from in her huge TV shows 'Ruby Wax Meets' and 'Full Wax'. Donald Trump, OJ Simpson, Pamela Anderson, Madonna and many more.
Her provocative, abrasive, incomparable style was - just about - kept in check by lifelong friend and A-list producer, Clive Tulloh. Together live on stage they review clips from the extraordinary shows, tell scandalous stories never before heard - and take the audience along for the ride.
Come and join me at my home.
Join me, at my home, for a rare, intimate day retreat, where we’ll explore the spin cycle of our minds.
You know that feeling, like your mind’s stuck on spin cycle, thoughts tumbling over and over, no clarity, just noise?
Yeah, me too. I’ve lived it. That inner critic who never seems to take a day off. But I’ve learned something powerful: you can find stillness in the storm. You can anchor yourself, even when the winds of doubt, fear, or chaos start blowing.
The waiting list is now live, dates will be released first to those who sign up.
Ruby’s Summer Day Retreat.
at Belcombe Court, Bradford on Avon
Join me at my Summer Day Retreat at Belcombe Court in Bradford on Avon, a beautiful private country manor house that’s usually off-limits to the public (because obviously they were waiting for you), this retreat will gives you permission to stop, breathe, press the pause button.
Today’s world is bringing us more anxiety and worry than ever before. I’ll teach you how to train your mind, the neuroscience behind your thoughts, and you’ll learn a new kind of fitness, mind fitness, one designed for your mental health. I’ll talk you through how to notice what’s real anxiety and what’s just your mind telling its usual stories. Join me to spend a summers day dedicated to getting to know your mind better.
Tickets go live soon, sign up to be the first to know when.
Wild Minds Retreat.
Welcome to the Wild Minds Retreat at 42 Acres
If your mind had legs, it would’ve run off years ago. Instead, it’s been stuck inside looping, overthinking, catastrophising, basically hosting a 24-hour anxiety festival with no intermission. It needs fresh air, so I’m taking my guests out into the wilderness of Somerset to gently reintroduce it to being calm and still, something it often forgets to do naturally.
The Goal
To help you realise your wild mind isn’t broken, it’s just loud, I’ll give you the mind tools that enable you to stop fighting the thoughts and start understanding them. I hope you can join me at 42 Acres, it’s going to be wild!

My latest book
I’m Not As Well As I Thought I Was
Checking into a mental clinic wasn't exactly on my radar in 2022. Writing about it wasn't either. But here we are.
I spent a lifetime trying to create a 'front' to give everyone the illusion that all is well. It wasn't, and it isn't. Now I look back and I think, 'what the f*ck was that all about?'
I began the book trying to find meaning by going on various, life-changing journeys, I ended up in a mental clinic; obviously things didn't work out the way I expected. This is the story of what happened after the mental car crash . . . I'm not a fiction writer. I can't fake it. I could say I rode into the sunset, but life isn't like that unless you're a cowboy. Truth is I'm not as well as I thought I was.
These days, trying to stay sane in a completely chaotic world makes life incredibly difficult. For those readers who are confronting unanticipated, or anticipated, mental health struggles of their own, I hope my words might provide reassurance and guidance.
