Headspace, a global leader in meditation and mindfulness, has announced that they have appointed award-winning singer and songwriter John Legend as its first-ever Chief Music Officer (CMO). Legend will work closely with Headspace Studios, Headspace’s new multi-platform studio creating and distributing mindful living content, to harness the power of music to enhance members’ mindfulness journeys. The collaboration kicks-off today with the launch of Headspace’s new Focus mode, designed to help members tune in to what matters most to them.

“I’m so excited to join the Headspace team as Chief Music Officer,” said Legend. “Songwriting and performing requires an incredible amount of mental focus, concentration, and present moment awareness. When I’m able to cancel out external noise and tune into a state of relaxed concentration, that’s when the creativity flows. That’s why I’m looking forward to helping others learn how to focus on what’s important to them – and I’ll be bringing some of my friends in the music industry along with me for the ride.”

Headspace meditation content has scientifically-validated benefits when it comes to helping users focus. In fact, four weeks of Headspace has been shown to increase focus and reduce mind-wandering by 14 percent.1 Additionally, in another study, just one 15 minute session of Headspace resulted in 22 percent reduction in mind wandering.2
