Don’t Worry Be You
Partnership for Fostering Youth & Community Wellbeing (Erasmus+ KA2)
“Don´t Worry Be You” has been a 2 year project that aims to create spaces and offer tools to both youth and youth workers, so they can deal with the negative effects on their wellbeing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
During our 2 years of collaboration, we worked towards equipping youth workers, educators and empower young people to reconnect with themselves, their communities and the outer world, following the LEMC model: Learning, Embodiment, Mindfulness, Connection. So, we created an interactive Booklet filled with tools, resources and inputs, so you can learn how wellbeing works; a series of step-by-step Embodiment Tutorials to get your body moving, among others that you can find by scrolling down.
