Ainslie Meares (1910-1986), was a pioneering Australian psychiatrist who used meditation as a means of treatment of psychosomatic and psychoneurotic illnesses.

In 1976, he reported in the Medical Journal of Australia the regression of cancer following intensive meditation. Meares would go on to write a number of books, including his best-seller Relief without Drugs.
