In fact, in a study conducted in one of the California schools, it was found that children who have gone mindfulness training for as little as two to three weeks already exhibited positive changes. In one specific classroom, from being the most notorious class with the most number of students visiting the principal, after three weeks of mindfulness training, the class had zero students who visited the principal. That's how effective this mindfulness training for kids is. So, what are you getting from this book?
