And if anything, I think the study has helped for them to bring PE back. And the classes, which are these lessons and yoga movements and mindfulness, were really taking place in the classroom that whatever teacher learned it. So if it was the math teacher, she was taking 10 minutes aside to do it.

If it was the PE and PE was not happening there, they may dedicate the 50 minutes to do the yoga and the mindfulness. So we have a number of assessments that we did. And like I mentioned, yes, it was acceptable and it improved mood and all of that. But I think the biggest finding that we published from that study was that it increased 73 minutes of sleep per 73. 73 minutes of sleep.

That's extraordinarily high. On average for the students. And it increased the depth of sleep. So something that we did in this study was that we also did portable polysomnography. And it was not in a sleep center. It was in their own house. So collaborating with Ruth O'Hara from the department, we were able to assess their sleep. And deep sleep is very important.

That's where you process the events of the day. So these kids were increasing REM, total sleep, deep sleep, doing much better. And then another thing, because of our previous studies that we've talked about in terms of brain function,

This hasn't been published, but we have some preliminary data demonstrating that those kids that went through the intervention before and after the intervention were able to decrease the activity of their amygdala, which was very powerful and also very helpful. So many of these kids adapted this into their daily practices after the study was over.
