“…As such, future experimental study designs could also investigate the effects of a mindfulness-based stress reduction program (Kabat-Zinn, 2003) or mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (Segal et al, 2002) on the authenticity levels of participants (Meleo-Meyer, 2021). There is reported evidence that mindfulness-based interventions decrease levels of stress (e.g., Chiesa & Serretti, 2009; Hofmann & Gómez, 2017, Pillay & Eagle, 2021), anxiety (Hoge et al, 2013; John Lothes et al, 2021), and depression (e.g., Kenny, 2021; Kuyken et al, 2008; Teasdale et al, 2000) and increase levels of well-being (e.g., Godfrin & van Heeringen, 2010), self-compassion (e.g., Ondrejková et al, 2020), and psychological adjustment (Molefi-Youri, 2019). Along these lines, future qualitative research could include in-depth interviews or focus-group studies with the participants of mindfulness trainings to gauge the level of authenticity experienced.…”

The concepts of authenticity and mindfulness have recently attracted much empirical research. Although these concepts appear to represent different phenomena and are regarded as independent research foci with their own theoretical heritage and research trajectory, they also share considerable empirical convergence. This led us to speculate that measures of these two aspects of human experience, although using different language, are in fact measuring similar phenomena. To investigate their similarity, 530 participants completed the Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (Baer et al., 2006) and the Authenticity Scale (Wood et al., 2008). Principal component analysis of the eight subscales from these two measures suggested two components that indicate the possibility of a useful confluence of these seemingly different lines of research inquiry. We suggest that there are specific ways in which a person who is authentic is also mindful and someone who is mindful is also authentic, but also the possibility that other ways of being mindful, such as observing (in the context of low levels of nonjudging), do not by themselves imply authenticity.

“…However, there are mental exercise routines -'mindfulness', for example (Hudson et al, 2020;Klingbeil et al, 2017;Pillay & Eagle, 2021;Soulakova et al, 2019) -which can be teacher-led within classrooms as an unobtrusive part of the regular curriculum and are accessible to primary-as well as secondary-school children. Research suggests such programmes improve cognitive ability, concentration and school performance and appear to have preventative and even curative effects.…”

Health, Child Development and Education in Rwanda:Understanding and working with contextual complexity

Children’s health, development and education cannot be handled separated; they form one process and are profoundly interrelated. This article considers how to ensure children’s physical and mental fitness for school and maintain it once they are there. Rwanda Is a case study of health and development issues which render children unreceptive to education. This is not news to Rwanda’s government, but until recently the donor community was not interested in supporting implementation. The story of Rwanda illustrates the need to think about changes of policy and practice in their context of structures and culture – how they interact and how they are facilitated or constrained by structures and by cultural understandings. To grasp what is going on and for successful implementation of policy, it is necessary to look at situations as a whole and consider human and governmental agency as real influences rather than just consequences of causal mechanisms.

“…Sejalan dengan yang dikemukakan oleh Khoury et al (2013) teknik Mindfulness memiliki bukti kuat sebagai teknik yang efektif berbagai masalah psikologis termasuk kecemasan, depresi, dan stres. Hal ini sejalan dengan yang dikemukakan Pillay & Eagle (2019) bahwa efek teknik Mindfulness meliputi neurologis, somatik, kognitif, sikap, interpersonal, dan dimensi eksistensial yang memiliki hubungan dengan kondisi stres traumatis.…”

The goal of this study tested the effectiveness of Mindfulness training to overcome insomnia in college students.The number of participating subjects amounted to 8 people in the weight category, with four people in each group(experiment and control). Treatment was given to subjects in the experimental group as many as four meetings with11 sessions within one month. For control is given a mindfulness diary to find out the emotional condition and sleep of the subject. The study used the Jakarta Psychiatric Study Group – Insomnia Rating Scale as a pre-test and post-test to measure insomnia levels before and after treatment. The data analysis technique used in the study was the Mann-Whitney U Test. The results showed that the experimental group’s results (Mdn=7) were higher than those of the control group (Mdn=15.8). Mann-Whitney’s test results showed a significant difference in pain scores between the experimental and control groups (N experiment = 4, Control = 4, Z =-2,337; p=0.019). This can be seen in the decrease in insomnia score in the experimental group. Mindfulness training proved to be appropriate for overcoming insomnia in college students.
