Research has shown Mindfulness reduces stress and anxiety, improves concentration, and increases happiness and contentment in life. Regular mindfulness practice is a valuable self-care tool for anyone who wants to take better care of their well-being, and also improve their relationship with others. Mindfulness helps teachers to cultivate compassionate attention and presence in the classroom.
