Grant M. Jones, a doctoral candidate at Harvard, combines his love for meditation and R&B music in his dissertation on mindfulness interventions. Inspired by personal experiences, he aims to introduce meditation to underserved populations through music as a means to alleviate stress and anxiety. Reflecting on how meditation has influenced his life, Jones emphasizes the importance of making mindfulness accessible and engaging, especially within the Black community, thereby bridging gaps in mental health resources with relatable and intuitive practices.
"Slowly over time, the impact the meditation practice had in my life really made it clear to me that I wanted to center meditation as a core part of not only my personal life, but also my professional life."
