Psychologists and neuroscientists from Oxford University and University College London will be undertaking an unprecedented trail on the affects of mindfulness on 11-16 year olds from 76 secondary schools in a seven year study. This is the largest trial of its kind, and should provide valued data for the benefits, or not, of mindfulness. Mind Matters is looking forward to hearing more from this ambitious study, and how mindfulness may be able to tackle illnesses such as depression and anxiety.
