Athletes reported that, after just 6 weeks of using The Mindful Project, they experienced:
2.19 times less anxiety
2.44 times less stress
2.24 times higher quality of life
when compared to their peers. The athletes also felt that practicing daily mindfulness improved their quality of sleep, emotional control, and confidence, and helped create a positive attitude and feelings of calmness.
Students described themselves as calmer, more under control, and more willing to help their fellow classmates. They also noted that mindfulness made them more optimistic about their future, and that they actually looked forward to their mindfulness training sessions!
Teachers reported that their classes seemed more relaxed, focused, and had fewer behavioral issues after practicing mindfulness. The students had noticeably improved academic performance and emotional regulation, as well as increased compassion and confidence.
Parents noticed that their kids were able to apply mindfulness techniques at home. When a stressful situation occurred, the kids were able to pause, take a breath, and shift their perspective to create a less emotional, more positive reaction.
