What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effects of a virtual, community-based music mindfulness program on stress management among People of African Descent (PADs) experiencing anxiety and depression during COVID-19. It focuses on the role of communal drumming and music in reducing stress and increasing connectedness within the community. Participants will listen to recordings of drumming sessions and provide feedback through surveys, with the aim of measuring reductions in stress levels. The study seeks to address the lack of culturally relevant mental health interventions for marginalized groups.
