\u00abLife is like a bike. To keep your balance, you have to keep moving\u00bb: Albert Einstein combines in one sentence the laws of Physics with a life attitude. Another source of inspiration for the holistic approach of Mental Health through an active living, through the use of the positive effect that sport and physical exercise have on our daily mood and mental balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A link that aims to establish the five-month European Campaign \u201cLife is like a bike\u201d (February-June 2018) and will be held in parallel in 12 European countries, as the main goal of the MENS<\/a>- Mental European Network of Sport Events project, the European project, which is co-funded by the European Commission under the Erasmus + program. MENS project is implemented with the involvement of 17 organizations, from 12 EU Member States, active in the field of mental health and \/ or sports and physical exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The main objective of the MENS project is the establishment of the European Network of Active Living for Mental Health (ENALMH) highlighting the crucial meaning of the link between Physical Exercise and Sports for the prevention, the treatment and the rehabilitation in the field of Mental Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The \u201cLife is Like a bike\u201d campaign is based on the results of the European survey among organizations and individuals about their experience and their opinions on the contribution of physical exercise and sport to mental health through specially designed questionnaires for sports organizations, mental health providers (recipients of their services or professionals) and the general population. The survey lasted two months (October-November 2017) and was completed with 2,656 participants from 12 European countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on the survey data, a positive attitude towards the link between \u201csport \/ exercise and mental health\u201d arises, but also a lack of motivation and of in-depth knowledge. Therefore, the \u201cLife is Like a Bike\u201d campaign acquires an informative but also encouraging character to provide valid information to those who have not yet adopt the active living, as a resounding confirmation for those who have adopted an active daily routine but also as a further reinforcement of the existing initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Keep balance, Keep moving.
