3: Mindfulness saved me

In this episode of Parents vs. The Internet, Esther Ghey and Liz Hull are joined by Russell Treasure, a mindfulness coach.  Treasure is a former businessman, who – after losing everything and declaring bankruptcy after the 2008 financial crash – discovered mindfulness, which, he says, transformed his life. Liz, Esther, and Russell discuss how Esther used mindfulness as a tool to cope in the immediate aftermath of Brianna’s murder; why Russell and Esther believe that mindfulness should be taught to children in primary school; and, how the practise of mindfulness has the potential to transform the next generation of young people for the better.
