A walk by the lake…

Description:

During the quarantine people were deprived of basic means of expression that promote good mood and mental well-being. People not only lost contact with the environment and important others, but also travelling.
Someone may be deprived of travelling, but no obstacle can prevent dreaming and thinking about a beautiful journey.
A “mental journey” may have been a refuge for many in dealing with the unpleasant feelings created by the pandemic.
The children of the Special Comprehensive Vocation High School of Kastoria created a “ mental” journey just as they imagined it would relieve people from stress and they used words and pictures that have the power to cure it.
In order to create this “mental journey”, children used activities related to the understanding of stress and the physical manifestations that it brings about, but also ways of coping with it. Guided imagination is a technique that has been proved to reduce stress.
The children created a guided imagination text to be heard on the “ European School Radio” with the aim of making clear how important it is to take care of our mental health through the relaxation this mental journey can offer.
