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 Google![]()

I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life.

The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. 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 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
Understanding mental health and well‑being
This program gives educators a solid grounding in mental health and well‑being. Participants explore key elements such as risk factors, causes, and how common issues can present themselves. The focus is on recognizing signs, applying support strategies, and understanding how childhood development and school performance intersect with mental health. Teachers also learn mindfulness techniques inspired by nature, encouraging a mindful approach to teaching. This knowledge helps educators navigate the complex overlap between mental health, mindfulness, and effective education.

Embracing nature for mental well‑being
Participants examine the deep connection between natural environments and mental health. The course highlights the positive effects of outdoor settings on both teachers and students, underscoring the value of learning outside. Through interactive sessions, educators practice mindfulness methods drawn from nature, gaining insight into the therapeutic benefits of spending time outdoors. This module empowers participants with tools to use nature’s healing potential to enhance mental wellness.

Nurturing mental wellness with innovative apps
This section centers on discovering and integrating a range of apps designed to support teachers’ and students’ emotional well‑being. Participants explore carefully selected digital tools aimed at improving mental health and academic success. The course offers practical guidance on weaving these apps into classroom and outdoor activities, aligning technology with nature. Through hands‑on sessions, educators find creative ways to merge tech with nature‑inspired lessons, ensuring a balanced blend of modern tools and the outdoors’ restorative power. Collaborative activities demonstrate how apps can boost mental health awareness outdoors, encouraging teachers to design nature‑driven projects that promote overall well‑being with technological support.
