The project in a few words

“Mind Your Health” is a project organised by  P.E.CO that is focused on emotional and physical wellbeing. In a supportive environment, participants will explore self-awareness, connect with nature and others, and engage in creative workshops. These activities are designed to help them better recognize and manage their emotions, and understand the links between mind, body, and relationships. Through this journey, participants will develop the skills needed for a more mindful and balanced life.
