And there's value in itself of being a more mindful person, because I think one, you become less reactive.
You can sort of be a little bit more conscientious, thoughtful, deliberate about making judgments, which then affects your decision making.
There is a calming, emotionally regulating sort of experience that can come with the practice of mindfulness meditation that also has larger impact.
If you practice it regularly, you can become generally more emotionally regulated.
I think that that's something I know that has been introduced and then sort of studied as something that if it's introduced, what is the impact that it has?
I know that some of the data says that from a behavioral standpoint, kids who historically might have, I don't know, gotten in trouble or something like that in a behavioral sense have
Found benefit from being able to do that.

But I think it also then translates into like these richer class discussions and makes people appreciate their own ability to kind of think and reflect and understand and feel something as well.
You know, at the heart of the argument against teaching things like, let's say, CRT or expanding the scope of talking about even more broadly how different people are different.
The pushback oftentimes is like, but how is this relevant to my kid?
And I think that that's sort of one of the most important aspects of thinking about learning in the context of being socially aware, because that's part of the skill set of learning how to see things from a more attuned perspective, but also seeing it from somebody else's perspective, right?
