Beautiful Mind International

Description

Since the mental health challenges amongst youth are relevant both at regional and global levels it is valuable to share good practices from different cultures to address it. Due to this, Beautiful Mind International (BMI) project was created. BMI aims at enabling youth to take care of their mental wellbeing by providing them with skills to do so. The project uses an innovative Problem Management+ technique to teach youth cognitive behavioral therapy and problem-solving therapy strategies. After learning these, youth would be able to attain their own psychosocial needs. Moreover, BMI project aims to create an online info bank where the contacts of psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker or psychiatric nurse could be found in any partner country. This is a tool for youth to find the help they need at any place or time. Finally, BMI aims at destigmatising mental health topic, hence the educational communicational campaign and self-exploration courses (mindfulness exercises, meditation, yoga, Pilates, etc.) will be organized. All of the aforementioned activities will be implemented in Lithuania, Nepal, Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan. Briefly, BMI aims are as follows:1. To educate local youth and society through awareness campaigns; thus, destigmatising the topic, related fears and worries;2. To provide skills and tools for youth to take care of their mental health. In other words to enable youth on taking care of themselves. This will be done by self-exploration (mindfulness exercises, meditation, etc.) and self-support groups.3. To train youth workers to organize PM+ groups locally. In the long term, youth workers should identify young leaders, who could be trained PM+ methods to have a group of their own.
