About the event
Are you a teacher, psychologist, school counselor, social worker, head of youth associations or otherwise work with youth aged 16-30?
We invite you to an informal online meeting of the international European project BENEFIT , which aims to develop the psychological resistance (resilience) and mindfulness (mindfulness) of youth. Participation is FREE for all interested parties thanks to the support of the Erasmus+ Benefit project.
What awaits you?
Make yourself at home and have dinner with us. In 2 hours, we will introduce you to the current outputs of the BENEFIT project - A manual for strengthening the resilience and awareness of youth . We will try out some mindfulness activities from the handbook that you can practice with your youth. We'll talk about what to do when young people resist, roll their eyes, cry or show other challenging emotions during mindfulness activities. Jana Kyriakou, an experienced mindfulness teacher for children and teenagers, will guide you through the activities.
