Therapeutic Learning

Funded Jul 9, 2021

We can intentionally shape the direction of plasticity changes in our brain. By focusing on wholesome thoughts, for example, and directing our intentions in those ways, we can potentially influence the plasticity of our brains and shape them in ways that can be beneficial. That leads us to the inevitable conclusion that qualities like warm-heartedness and well-being should best be regarded as skills. The evidence is in—mindfulness is linked to changes both in the brain and the body's production of hormones and other chemicals that impact our physical health. We would like to thank all of our donors for making this possible for the students not only in our class but for our school. It have truly made a difference in the the lives of our students. The stress levels have gone down and student's moral has gone up. The mats have also help the student's to gain balance, posture control, and a comfortable area to meditate during stressful times. Keep changing lives and the way children learn in schools.”

With gratitude,
