"Goldie Hawn has launched a programme that teaches children how to relax through Buddhist training. The actress, who previously revealed that she was developing a Buddhist school in the UK, has claimed that the MindUp programme will teach kids to reduce stress and recognise their conscious state of mind. According to Contactmusic, the 64-year-old said: &amp;quot;It teaches children how their minds work, it teaches them to recognise stress, and when they do, it gives them tools to deal with it.  &amp;quot;All of this is wrapped around the curriculum, so it doesn&amp;#039;t take time from the academics.&amp;quot; As for the programme&amp;#039;s results, she added: &amp;quot;We have done tests that show there was better attendance, that their aggression went down in the playground, that their optimism went up to 63%. It&amp;#039;s been done by neuroscientists from the University of British Columbia. People who have been doing this for 30 years.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
