Yoga can be a powerful way to build mindfulness can lower stress

Success in yoga isn’t measured by how flexible your body is, but by how peaceful your mind becomes.”

Practicing mindful thinking and mindful eating may help students reduce stress and overcome pre-exam anxiety, according to a study.
Mindfulness involves training one’s attention through meditation to improve mental well-being.
The study found that such practices can lower stress levels and decrease the likelihood of mental health issues like anxiety and depression, ultimately helping students perform better academically.

A study published in The Lancet Public Health found that college students who practiced mindfulness reported lower levels of distress, indicating greater resilience to stress.
The research also showed that mindfulness training enhanced students’ well-being during exam periods compared to those receiving standard support.

The study found that students who received only standard support experienced rising stress levels as the academic year progressed. In contrast, mindfulness training helped students better manage accumulated stress and build resilience.

Peter Jones from University of Cambridge noted that mindfulness could complement existing university counselling services and serve as an effective part of broader student mental health strategies.

The research involved 616 students divided into two groups—one receiving usual counselling support and the other undergoing mindfulness training. The findings suggested that mindfulness is a practical, widely accepted, and stigma-free approach that may even be more effective than some other preventive methods.
