Here is what the science says, according to TIME MAGAZINE, about the effects of mindfulness on children in the September 2016 Special Issue
MORE KINDNESS:
Fourth and fifth graders who participated in a mindfulness and kindness program showed better social behavior than their peers and were less aggressive and better liked.
BETTER MATH SCORES
The mindful group had math scores 15% higher than their peers’. In a separate study 41% of meditating middle school aged kids gained at least one level in math on state standardized test.
FEWER ADHD SYMPTOMS
Even third graders can get Zen. Eight weeks of mindfulness and yoga resulted in fewer ADHD symptoms and less hyperactivity- and the effects lasted for months after the program ended.
MORE SELF CONTROL
Three years after a meditation program was implemented at a troubled middle school; suspension rates dropped from 28% to 4% and teacher turnover plummeted.
IMPROVED FOCUS
At a school in Richmond, CA teachers reported better focus, self-control, class participation and peer respect in kids who followed a mindfulness program, compared with their levels before the program.
LESS DEPRESSION
Just 9 lessons of a mindfulness program led to lower depression scores, less stress and improved well being in British kids ages 12–16, compared with students who didn’t participate in the program
