...As found in these studies, mindfulness decreases rumination, which is the act of being lost in thought about negative events as opposed to their solutions. A research paper from Harvard University found that our minds are lost in thought 47% of the time, which means we spend 40 years of our lives in thought and unhappy. But, when being mindful, one focuses on only the important things, thus decreasing rumination.Clearing the mind also makes it easier to pinpoint the causes of stress and get rid of it. Research shows that after practising mindfulness, the grey matter in your brain’s amygdala, a region known for its role in stress, can become smaller. Mindfulness encourages students to deal with stress instead of avoid it. Lastly, when being mindful, it becomes easier to hang onto important thoughts and memorize information. In a 2011 study, a group of participants underwent a month of mindfulness training, while another group had no training. After testing,they found that the group with mindfulness training had a much greater memory than the group without. This means that...
