Evidence-Based Practices

NeuroGym’s four core pillars are grounded in credible research showing clear benefits for youth brain health, mood, and learning:

Mindfulness & Somatics

A Harvard study of middle-schoolers found that an 8-week classroom mindfulness program significantly reduced stress and increased focus.

Art & Play

Action for Healthy Kids research reports that the arts “strengthen self-awareness and positive self-identity”, encourage emotional expression, improve self-management, and build collaborative relationships.

Nutrition & Diet

Harvard Health explains that “what you eat directly affects the structure and function of your brain". Studies show a link between food triggers and mood such as diets high in refined sugars and impaired brain function and mood (worsening symptoms of anxiety and depression)

Sleep Optimization

Stanford Medicine notes that adequate sleep “improves academic performance” and supports brain development and physical healthmed. Data show that most teens are chronically sleep-deprived (7 in 10 don’t get 8–10 hours), undermining mood and attention.

Victoria,Programme Partner, Kaplan Higher Education

The sessions equipped students with practical tools to manage stress, regulate their emotions, and stay resilient during a demanding transition period. What stood out was how accessible and applicable the techniques were — students could immediately apply them in their daily lives, interviews, and academic demands.

Mr. Tan, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Student Wellbeing Programme

We were impressed by the interactive, bite-sized approach taken by NeuroGym Academy. The content was engaging, practical, and well-paced for students. More importantly, students walked away with concrete skills they could use immediately — from grounding techniques to emotional regulation strategies. The sessions struck a good balance between neuroscience, reflection, and real-world application.

Don, National Youth Council (NYC), Youth Programme

The neuro-affirming approach taken by NeuroGym Academy resulted in students being more engaged during lessons and demonstrated better awareness of their emotional states. They learned practical tools to cope with meltdowns, sensory overwhelm, and stress in a way that felt safe and respectful of their needs. The programme supported both learning and wellbeing in a meaningful, strengths-based way.
