Noored Ühiskonna Heaks (NYH) is promoting a call for participants for a Youth Exchange called “BioHacking: Step 1” which will take place from 22nd until 30th April 2023 in Pärnu, Estonia.
The project “BioHacking: Step 1” is a youth exchange program that aims to educate young people about the various scientific methods and techniques that can be used to improve their mental, psychological, and physical health. The project focuses on BioHacking, a process that involves making small changes to one’s daily routine to enhance the body’s performance and capabilities.
The youth exchange program will introduce participants to BioHacking techniques that are backed by scientific evidence and research. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the influence of food on the body, the benefits of yoga and other mindful techniques, and the importance of maintaining a healthy daily routine.
Goals:
- To explore the principle of BioHacking from three different perspectives: physical activity, nutrition and mental health.
- To show in practice various mindful techniques to improve the abilities and stability of our minds and bodies.
- To equip participants with tips on how they can implement BioHacking on a daily basis.
- To empower young people and youth leaders to share knowledge with more people and equip them with tools to increase confidence and performance, and focus on self-improvement.
- To analyze the learning achievements and recognise learning progress in BioHacking tools.
- To encourage participants to adopt a growth mindset and view their bodies as something that can be improved with intentional effort and practice.
- To help participants identify areas in their lives where they could benefit from BioHacking and create action plans to make changes.
