New online program offers mindfulness makeovers for the whole family

LONDON - EntSun -- Over the last 15 years, antidepressant use has increased by 65 percent, according to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Anxiety is on the rise for all family members, including children, and a majority of adults who experience mental health problems -- 68% of women and 57% of men -- are parents.

Today's families live in a world that faces escalating global conflicts, disastrous climate change and isolation due to digital technologies. So it's no wonder that anxiety levels continue to rise globally.

One startup hopes to combat the stressors of 21st century family life by helping families master the art of mindfulness, together.

Mindfulness is an exercise that involves focusing one's attention on the immediate, present moment in order to let go of anxiety and negative thoughts. Root2Mindfulness harnesses mindfulness exercises for families by offering affordably priced online programs to help people unclutter minds full of useless or damaging thoughts and relieve the stress and pain they are holding within.

Mindfulness helps practitioners acknowledge, accept, process, and put a stop to emotions that manifest negativity or self-hurt.  The practice allows people to press pause in the midst of toxic behaviors and emotional reactions to assess and recalibrate, responding calmly and peacefully to any situation. When families engage in mindfulness exercises together, they open up new connections with one another and achieve a collective calming that can be life changing.

"Mindfulness is powerful in transforming the lives of individuals and families," said Rachael Iris Skerritt, co-founder of Root2Mindfulness. "It can have a hugely positive effect on every single person who welcomes it into their lives. When families master mindfulness together, they are healthier and have more fulfilling relationships of love and support."

Root2Mindfulness offers emotional education for the whole family through a convenient online program that can be completed in the comfort of one's own home. Using an easy-to-follow curriculum that includes, games, tasks and lessons, the whole family can bond together while mastering the practice of mindfulness.

Mindfulness can help parents be more in tune with themselves, gain patience and learn how to relax while helping children of any age evaluate what's essential in any given moment and what's holding them back while learning to understand their own emotions. All the while, the whole family grows together, communicates more effectively, solves problems together quickly and forms an unbreakable unit.

Families can enroll in the program for a 7-day trial for $1.
