The study being proposed is if meditation has an effect on rheumatoid arthritis. The motivation for this study that is being proposed is due to arthritis as a common diagnosis for a type of pain people have in their body.

I walk out of my room feeling numb from the waist down and ask my dad if I could borrow…
