November gave us a wonderful opportunity to come together with young people and hold a training led by our Supermentor leaders — «Synchronizing Calm. A Self-Help Toolkit.».
The goal of the event was to create a safe and creative space where teenagers and mentors could explore their own recovery resources during times of stress.
Through practical exercises and art therapy, participants learned to:
- recognize their own emotional signals and needs;
- find individual ways of self-support;
- restore inner balance through creativity and interaction;
- strengthen trust and teamwork in the «mentor – teenager» pair.
«This topic is incredibly important to me. The speakers explained everything very simply and interestingly. It was valuable to hear others» experiences in such a warm circle. I sincerely thank you for such a warm and genuine atmosphere. I’m taking the breathing exercises our mentors showed us with me — they were very interesting and funny” — Nika.
Synchronization in psychology is the process of aligning bodily rhythms, emotional states, or behavioral patterns between people during interaction. That is exactly what happened at our training: lots of shared laughter, difficult stories, support, and hugs. Everyone had the opportunity to receive exactly as much support as they needed that day.
Our mentors shared their own stabilization techniques, and the young participants practiced them with great interest and openness.
«It was very interesting to listen to such an important topic and talk with everyone in a warm atmosphere. I’m taking a good mood and delicious sandwiches with me» — Tymur.
«I was glad to see everyone! I really enjoyed the training, and the speakers explained everything wonderfully and simply, using real-life examples. I liked the game with capybaras and the little backpack» — Stas.
Special thanks to our young leaders Alyona Lugantseva and Volodymyr Bulyubash, who made an incredible impression on the group with their professionalism, warmth, and creative approach. All participants noted how valuable their contribution was.
«Thank you to everyone who joined. For me, this is invaluable experience working in such an awesome company. I was glad to share this topic with people close to me» — Alyona.
We sincerely thank our good friends and partners at the Kyiv City Library for their support and for providing a space where important meetings are born.
«We want more,» was the phrase heard from everyone — both the young people and the mentors — “let’s have meetings like this more often!”
«I really enjoyed the event on coping with stress. My sincere thanks to the speakers and all the organizers. I’m incredibly impressed by the number of methods for dealing with personal stress and by the fact that you can help not only yourself, but also a friend.
