Jhené Aiko's Wellness Secrets Revealed
24 Apr
Summary
- Aiko integrates sound bowls into music, inspired by childhood fascination.
- Motherhood at 20 sparked her wellness journey, influenced by parents.
- Coachella experience highlighted fun as a crucial aspect of self-care.

Jhené Aiko has consistently prioritized wellness, sharing her journey through social media with messages of healing and self-care. She recently collaborated with Velocity Black for a luxury wellness experience, where she led a sound bath using her ALLEL bowls. This activity drew inspiration from her teenage fascination with Tibetan bowls, an interest first sparked by her father.
Aiko's wellness path began in earnest after she became a mother at age 20. Her upbringing influenced her holistic approach, with her pediatrician father and 'medicine woman' mother and grandmother emphasizing food as medicine and overall well-being. Music became an integral part of her healing process, with writing serving as an early form of therapy.
She intentionally incorporated the science of sound and crystal alchemy bowls into her 2020 album 'Chilombo,' guided by her sound-healing mentor. Aiko stresses that having fun and expressing oneself are essential to wellness. She recently demonstrated this at Coachella, enjoying performances and connecting with fellow artists.
Reflecting on the 10th anniversary of her duo project Twenty88, Aiko described it as a timeless album that allowed for musical experimentation. She views 'Westside Whimsy' not as a project, but as an encompassing lifestyle that permeates all her endeavors.
