Mindfulness has garnered increasing attention in the field of education, including business schools, due to its potential to enhance cognitive and emotional aspects of learning and personal development. It is commonly defined as the ability to be fully present and engaged in the moment, free from distraction and judgment. While mindfulness is a multifaceted concept, it is often assessed through various scales. In this article, we will explore the significance of mindfulness among business school students, particularly focusing on a comparison of Ellen Langer's Scale of Mindfulness and the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). The pursuit of mindfulness in educational contexts is not merely a trend; it is a response to the challenges of modern education. Business school students, in particular, face intense academic pressures, the need to excel in a competitive environment, and the demand to adapt to a constantly changing business landscape. Mindfulness practices have shown promise in helping students manage stress, improve focus, and promote overall well-being.
