Many people struggle to stay active simply because they haven’t found an activity they truly enjoy.
The important thing to remember is that you don’t have to follow what others like; physical activity comes in many forms!💪
Yesterday, our Greek partners at @EPAPSY organised an experiential seminar about mental health for teachers and students, ending in inclusive games like ping-ping and basketball to build empathy.

✨ Μια ξεχωριστή δράση πραγματοποιήθηκε στο 1ο ΓΕΛ Πεύκης, με στόχο την ευαισθητοποίηση μαθητών και εκπαιδευτικών γύρω από την ψυχική υγεία και τη σημασία της συμπερίληψης.
🤝 Οι ομάδες της ΕΠΑΨΥ από το Οικοτροφείο Λυκόβρυσης, το It’s Up to Youth και την Κινητή Μονάδα Παιδιού και Εφήβου «ΠΝΟΕΣ» βρέθηκαν στο σχολείο, σε συνεργασία με το Κέντρο Κοινότητας του Δήμου Λυκόβρυσης–Πεύκης.
💬 Κατά τη διάρκεια της επίσκεψης, οι επαγγελματίες συζήτησαν με μαθητές και εκπαιδευτικούς για θέματα ψυχικής υγείας, πραγματοποίησαν βιωματικά σεμινάρια, ενώ παράλληλα παρουσίασαν τις υπηρεσίες που παρέχουν οι μονάδες.
🏀 Η μέρα ολοκληρώθηκε με παιχνίδι και χαρά, καθώς μαθητές και ωφελούμενοι έπαιξαν μαζί πινγκ πονγκ και μπάσκετ. Μικρές στιγμές που έφεραν κοντά ανθρώπους και γέμισαν την αυλή με χαμόγελα.
💙 Μια πρωτοβουλία που ανέδειξε τη δύναμη της συνάντησης και μας θύμισε πως η ψυχική υγεία και η συμπερίληψη καλλιεργούνται μέσα από τη συμμετοχή και την αποδοχή!
