Janvi and Marcus on Staying Mindful in Medical School

Janvi and Marcus are medical students at the University of Otago. Marcus serves as the President of the Otago Medical School Student Association, while Janvi leads the ECCO Conference. Coming from diverse cultural backgrounds—Janvi is Hindu, and Marcus is Māori—they bring unique perspectives to their mindfulness practice. In this episode, they join Dr Sam Hazledine to discuss how mindfulness supports them through the pressures of medical school and how their cultural beliefs have shaped their approaches to staying grounded and well.
