The program was full of energy, fun activities and meaningful moments. Participants explored emotional intelligence in an interactive and engaging way.

Through this project, participants had the opportunity to experience both personal and professional growth while connecting with people from different cultural backgrounds.

They shared that the experience helped them gain new knowledge, develop practical skills, and see things from new perspectives. For many, it was not only about learning, but also about meaningful exchange and connection.

Overall, participants described the experience as valuable and inspiring, encouraging others to take part in similar Erasmus+ opportunities.

Today concluded the second day of “Mind your Emotions” TC in Plurien, France. The day started with the usual warming up, making use of a tennis ball and a styrofoam tube to release the tension from our bodies. Moving on, guided by our trainers Lydie and Dominique, we practiced some masque theatre, improvisation and non-verbal communication exercises. The day wrapped up with a wonderful vegetarian dinner and and a walk in the vivid city of Plurien. #erasmusplus

Today’s workshop began with a powerful idea: you cannot truly experience life if you don’t feel your body. Our body is the instrument through which we sense emotions, satisfaction, pleasure, and everything in between. If we can’t feel it within ourselves, we simply don’t feel it at all. We started with a body scan, gently noticing where tension sits and how it feels. Which foot feels heavier? Which side of the body is more relaxed? Then we turned to the breath. Breathing is our first aid—it helps us release tension and stay present, even in uncomfortable moments, even with pain.

Then we did some activitiesto get to know each other better as individuals and as a group.

We worked on our training plan through river of life, why we come to this training, what we are expecting, what are our struggles in pro life. Then we shared also specificity of different public in differents professionnal situation we work with.  I’m excited to see what comes next on this journey

Day 5

Today, our day was packed with insightful experiences, meaningful reflections, and vibrant cultural exchanges.

🌅 We started the day with a powerful exercise on Crossing Boundaries, exploring the concept of « The Wheel of Consent » – those invisible borders that define our personal comfort zones towards individuals and through genders.

🕔 In the afternoon, we took time to reflect on the project’s journey so far. We shared feedback with our trainers, discussing both the positive aspects and the areas where improvements could be made.

🎭 Later in the day, we stepped into a creative exercise called « The Masks », where we embodied two versions of ourselves – the one we show to the world and its exact opposite. This unique experience helped us break through our comfort zones and understand the many layers of our personalities regarding gender.

🌐 As the day came to a close, we organized an Intercultural Night, where participants from Croatia, Germany, Italy, and Romania proudly showcased their cultures.

These moments of connection and exchange remind us why we are here – to learn, to grow, and to break down the boundaries that divide us.
