Medical Meditation is a free mobile app created to improve the lives of people suffering from chronic illnesses through guided meditation tracks for a variety of illnesses and symptoms, supporting the listener to find relaxation and awareness of breath through mindfulness techniques. The Medical Meditation app was founded by Dr Nikhil Joshi, who used meditation as a coping mechanism after being diagnosed with cancer. Mindfulness is believed to reduce the impact of stress and anxiety on patients and their families, a part of treating a person holistically. The app is available for download at www.medicalmeditation.ca [2].
