A study done at Virginia Commonwealth University found that in social setting of people thowing balls to each other, the people who were more mindful were found to be less distressed.  This means that mindful people are more likely to not be affected by social rejection and can regulate their distress better than others who may tend to get more violent when distressed.  Pain scale: 4 #social #geog203 https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/06/180614212911.htm
