Peaceful change: mindfulness is being taught in more schools here and overseas. Photo: Simone De Peak

What is happening?

Mindfulness meditation the practice of quietening the mind to bring awareness and attention to the present moment is increasingly being used in schools around the world as a tool to improve student wellbeing and enhance academic performance. Although originating in Buddhist religious tradition, it is a secular form of the practice that has become popular in classrooms and workplaces.

One particular program making headway on an international scale is the Britain-based Mindfulness in Schools Project. It provides two main courses designed specifically by teachers for use in the classroom: ".b" pronounced "dot-be" (Stop, Breathe and Be) aimed at older children, and "Paws-be" geared towards 7- to 11-year-olds. Now taught in more than 20 countries with a curriculum translated into numerous languages, co-founder Richard Burnett hopes that mindfulness meditation will one day be taught in all schools "just like reading and writing".

Why is it happening?

In recent years, mindfulness training has been incorporated into workplaces around the world, including government organisations, companies, hospitals and prisons. Research has overwhelmingly highlighted the many benefits of the practice in adult populations, including enhanced performance, improved emotional management and reduced workplace stress; inspiring even more workplaces to implement mindfulness training programs.

These favourable results have led educators to consider the potential value of mindfulness meditation in schools to improve student concentration and overall wellbeing; particularly given the myriad multimedia distractions they face and the rising incidence of anxiety and depression.

Where is it happening?

This year, the Mindfulness in Schools Project has scheduled teacher training in Scotland, Ireland, the United States, Canada, Finland, Thailand, the Netherlands and Australia. Its ".b" curriculum has been translated into Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Icelandic, French, German and Spanish, indicating its growing international appeal. However, it is just one of many mindfulness programs currently in operation.

Swedish furniture giant Ikea will now serve vegan meatballs at its stores in US and Europe, expanding its popular Swedish meatballs range.

The new balls dubbed, 'grnsaksbullar' will be served in plates of 10 balls and would be sold at 3.80 or $4.49, though the price has not been confirmed yet.

The vegan meatballs are made with chickpeas, carrots, green peas, red pepper, corn, kale, pea protein, onion, rapeseed oil, salt and seasoning. They contain vegetable chunks.

The vegan balls are available in select stores currently and will soon be rolled out to all the stores internationally. Ikea, though, will continue to sell its Swedish meatballs.

Ikea reportedly sells 150 million Swedish-style meatballs, made from beef and pork, in its cafes each year. This is another step in the retailer's attempts to go green.

In a statement as cited in The Telegraph, the company said: "The veggie ball... has a lower environmental impact, such as a lower carbon footprint.

"This is a natural step for Ikea, building on the vision of creating a better everyday life for the many."
