DUBROVNIK – MINDFULNESS – Breathing Practices Transforming Today’s Classroom (Outdoor)
EXCELLENT Based on 740 reviews Posted on Germana Cernicchi2026-08-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!Posted on nella de matteis2026-08-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Corso coinvolgente.

It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.Posted on Lorena Blanco2026-08-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Enhance Your Well-Being and Mental Balance
Participating in this Erasmus+ KA1 course will support you in improving your overall quality of life. Strong mental health paired with a sense of well-being is crucial for maintaining a happy and healthy lifestyle. Throughout the course, you will discover how small, intentional changes can greatly influence your daily life.

Reduce Stress and Boost Your Productivity
Our experienced Erasmus teacher trainers will guide you in recognizing your strengths and personal potential. You will learn techniques to manage everyday stress, work more efficiently, and find ways to unwind and relax. This course was developed after observing the significant levels of stress teachers currently face. The transition from traditional classroom teaching to online instruction has been particularly demanding for many educators, as reflected in our surveys and polls.

Practice Mindfulness & Reconnect with Nature
Our Erasmus activities take place outdoors—by the sea, along the river, and in peaceful natural settings. We engage in Mindfulness exercises, offer mutual support, and discuss the reasons behind various emotional experiences. You will learn how to cultivate a more joyful and meaningful life, release built-up stress, and appreciate the positive aspects already present around you. Together, we will reflect on how we think, feel, and act, how life influences us, and the strategies we use to cope. Taking a course focused on mental health and well-being in a beautiful outdoor environment has become not just beneficial, but truly essential.
