The article describes new methods and techniques that allow people to focus on the present moment and effectively respond to the challenges that arise in war conditions. The purpose of the study is to analyze the concept of "mindfulness" in psychology and to theoretically substantiate the mindfulness technique for the development of students' resilience in war conditions. 50 students of specialties 053 Psychology and 231 Social work (I-II courses) of Uman State Pedagogical University named after Pavlo Tychyna participated in the empirical study. The age of the subjects is 17–35 years. Psychodiagnostic methods were used: S. Cohen and G. Willianson's "Test for Self-Assessment of Personality Stress Resistance", S. Muddy's "Resistance to Life Test" (adapted by D. O. Leontiev and O. I. Rasskazova), "Methods of Coping Behavior" questionnaire by R. Lazarus. The results of the study indicate that practicing mindfulness can increase a person's level of resilience, which allows them to better withstand the difficulties and respond to the challenges of war. Increasing psychological resilience in students will help maintain emotional balance in wartime, and regular mindfulness practice will help reduce reactions to stressful events, which is extremely important in a military environment where stress can be constant. The proposed mindfulness techniques can be used by students, practical psychologists, teachers, as well as parents to overcome or reduce anxiety, stress and help maintain mental health. The use of mindfulness techniques will contribute to the harmony between mental and emotional intelligence, which is manifested in an increase in the level of mental health, the use of emotions as an effective means of improving the quality of life, the ability to restore inner harmony and peace, as well as the ability to act judiciously.
