ROAM Mindfulness-Based Learning™
The ROAM Mindfulness-Based Learning™ Initiative is a program that combines the principles of Regenerative Organic Agriculture and Mindfulness to create a comprehensive and innovative learning experience. The founders recognised that integrating these two subjects significantly and positively creates a sustainable and equitable way forward.
Regenerative Organic Agriculture is an approach to farming that goes beyond organic agriculture by actively rebuilding the soil and its link to the environment. Studies have shown that this approach reduces greenhouse gas emissions, builds soil health and fertility, enhances water quality, and increases biodiversity.
On the other hand, Mindfulness is being fully present in the moment without judgment. Mindfulness effectively addresses various conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and chronic pain, enhancing focus, concentration, and memory.
