With the growth of technology and a noticeable disassociation with staff and student, mental health has become a prominent topic brought up when discussing the education system. Students, whether college or K-12, will face many challenges during school, such as learning, bullying, and even identity, and the over-stimulation of all this will take a toll on the student's mental well being. I found courses designed to help me emotionally rather than intellectually extremely helpful because it was a chance to help quell my anxiety, which in turn helped me focus more on my education. So I absolutely believe that it is essential for educational systems to integrate mindfulness and mental health programs into their system.  Less
