              How to do it
              The research behind it
              Why you should try it

              Engaging in mindfulness and embracing the pathway to acceptance allows you to cultivate a deeper understanding of yourself, others, and the world around you. It helps in acknowledging and accepting experiences without judgment, fostering resilience, reducing stress, and promoting a sense of peace and contentment in challenging situations.

              Why it works

              Cultivating acceptance through mindfulness promotes empathy and comprehension within relationships, encouraging an appreciation for others' unique traits and fostering deeper, more harmonious connections. This practice not only extends to understanding and accepting others but also encompasses treating oneself with kindness and understanding. When integrated with mindfulness, acceptance nurtures self-compassion, ultimately enhancing self-esteem and overall well-being.

              Evidence that it works

              Yousefi Afrashteh, M., & Hasani, F. (2022). Mindfulness and psychological well-being in adolescents: the mediating role of self-compassion, emotional dysregulation and cognitive flexibility. Borderline personality disorder and emotion dysregulation, 9(1), 22.
              This study found that mindfulness is linked to better mental well-being, and this connection is supported by positive effects on self-compassion and cognitive flexibility. Mindfulness is beneficial for mental health directly and indirectly. However, emotional dysregulation, influenced by mindfulness, can negatively impact psychological well-being. 

              The study confirmed these relationships and suggested that promoting mindfulness, self-compassion, cognitive flexibility, and managing emotional responses can enhance mental well-being. Practitioners should focus on these factors to support individuals in improving their psychological health.

              A perfect practice to start the day or before doing something that requires you to focus, such as a revision session or a practice test paper. 


              How to Do It

              Mindfulness for Students itself is designed to be used by everyone and anywhere, and by doing so respects the simple beauty of practicing mindfulness. 

              Having said that their are some tips which include creating best environment to get the most of this mindfulness practice:
              • Before playing the guided mindfulness video, check that whatever device you are playing it from allows you to see and hear clearly

              • Make yourself before you start the practice that you are in a comfortable setting. A classroom, a library or your own calm space, where you won't be easily distracted will help

              • The position you practice mindfulness is very important. Seated on a chair is one of the greatest positions to properly practice mindfulness in. If you are seated, make sure the chair you are in is firm and supportive.
              Remember, with mindfulness, it is not about getting it right or wrong, but rather the practice itself and taking time for you to connect with the present moment.
