Follow Up Activity

"Embracing Our Bodies: A Journey to Body Acceptance"

Our Gymnasium teachers Vaida and Neringa participated in the Erasmus+ project "Embracing Our Bodies: A Journey to Body Acceptance" (BODY-ACCEPT) (invited by the Lithuanian company EFEKTAS GROUP), which took place in Cyprus from 12-22 April 2024. The participants, who work with young people, represented nine European countries. The training course provided tools and strategies to manage negative thoughts and emotions about their bodies, and provided ways of self-compassion and self-care. Teachers have tried out many specific, active methods, which they are successfully applying in their lessons and classroom sessions. The activities are also suitable for use in other areas of the school. Here are some moments from the course in Cyprus and the activities in the gymnasium!
