This Learning Playlist is part of the international training course Mental Health Promotion in the Youth Field. There are 3 parts to this training.

Before the Mobility
Participants of this international training course are requested to prepare by doing some research into the NLP that we will use as a model for our learning about Mental Health Promotion. They do this through the Learning Activities:
  • What is NLP
  • History of NLP
  • NLP and System Theory

The First Part of the Mobility
For the first 6 days of the Mobility, participants will experience youth work activities and reflect on their learning from that day using the following Learning Activities:
  1. Change the world, Change your mind
  2. Step by Step to great Rapport
  3. Sensory Acquity, Mind-reading for beginners
  4. Building the Picture, Setting the Outcomes
  5. Tools and techniques - 1
  6. Tools and techniques - 2

The Second Part of the Mobility
Participants will transfer their learning into (digital) learning activities for the people they work with and participate in a youth work market with local youth work organisations.

LifeComp competence framework
To support recognition of non-formal learning and to support the development of the “Personal, Social and Learning to Learn” skills within youth work we make in this training an connection between the learning happening during the training and the LifeComp Competence Framework.

Spcifically will be worked on the following skill zones: flexibility, growth mindset, critical thinking, collaboration, self-regulation, communication, empathy, well-being and managing learning.

Open Badges
In each Learning Activity and for the total Learning Playlist participants can earn Open Badges. Sometimes the badges will be issued via checking evidence by accredited NLP practisioners, other times via international trainers and also via self-assessment by the earners itself.

This project is co-funded by ErasmusPlus

This workshop, for participants of the international training course Mental Health Promotion for Youth Work, will teach you how you will be able to give a reflex zone massage. The reflex zone massage can also be done on the feet. This time we are going to focus on the hands.

Hand massage zones


What
In couples you will experience 15 minutes how to give a hand massage and 15 minutes how to receive a hand massage.

What you need to bring:
  • small towel
  • hand creme or oil

After the hand massage we will debrief the experience and how we can use this method in our youth work.

How
By applying pressure on certain points of the hand you will affect the corresponding body parts and organs. Reflex zone massage also named reflexology stimulates the self-healing power of the body. By harmonizing those powers whom sit within everybody´s energy balance in the body and mind.

According to the theory but also noticeable within the practice, the reflexology stimulates body mind and soul. On the psychological it can have significant positive effects.

During the stimulation of the pressure points the relaxation will be improved and therefor the entire health and quality of live will be improved.

During the massage there are several technics you can apply:
  • Appling pressure on a specific point
  • To smooth or knead of the larger zone of the hands

All of the technics focus on stimulating points or zones to create a positive effect on other parts of the body. You could say the zones (reflex area) on the hands (and feet) mirror the parts of our body that are in need of attention.

During the massage of the hand, the tension will release, the hands will be come flexible and feel softer. This in its turn will also trigger the relaxation of body and mind resulting in overall body relaxation. This massage can be applied on persons of all ages.

More information you can find in the recourse attached.
