"The mindfulness training with my 4th graders has shown its positive effects even after a short introductory period of a few weeks. Some students reported that they would close their eyes and do mindful listening or a brief body scan in stressful situations. This would make them feel calmer afterwards, and, performed at nighttime, it made it easier for them to fall asleep. One child proudly reported that he was eating his praline box mindfully, letting the chocolates slowly melt in his mouth, so he would get the most out of the sweets."
