Event Description:

The Stress Management Through Mindfulness event is a practical workshop designed to help participants recognize, manage, and reduce stress using evidence-based techniques. Open to all, this session combines mindfulness exercises, guided reflection, and gentle body movements to create a comprehensive stress-relief experience.

The workshop begins with a brief introduction to stress and its impact on the body and mind, where facilitators explain physiological and psychological responses to stress. Participants will gain insight into how tension manifests physically, emotionally, and cognitively, and why mindfulness practices are effective tools for managing these responses.

Next, participants will engage in guided mindfulness exercises. These include body scans, awareness of breath, and mindful observation techniques designed to help individuals notice tension, recognize emotional patterns, and cultivate presence. These exercises train participants to pause, observe, and respond thoughtfully rather than react automatically to stressors.

A key segment of the workshop involves integrating movement and breath. Participants will practice slow, intentional movements combined with breathwork to release physical tension and restore balance. The exercises focus on areas commonly affected by stress, such as the shoulders, neck, and back, while also encouraging overall relaxation and energy flow.

The session concludes with a reflection and discussion period. Participants are invited to share experiences, insights, and challenges while receiving personalized guidance from facilitators. Practical tips are provided to incorporate mindfulness and stress-relief techniques into daily routines, emphasizing that ongoing practice is essential for lasting benefits.

By participating in this workshop, attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of stress, tools for emotional regulation, and practical methods to maintain calm and balance in daily life. CORPS EN DEVENIR’s approach ensures that stress management is accessible, effective, and sustainable.
