What’s it all about?
Sport and exercise not only strengthen the body, but also the mind. However, the mind can also be harmed, and even today there is still very little coverage of mental health in sport. As a team of sport enthusiasts, we want to change that. In our blog, we explore this topic with the help of experts, coaches and athletes.
Implementation
To begin with, we put together a list of topics that interest us personally. Many of these stem from our own lives. We then carried out targeted research and held discussions. At the same time, the idea for an Instagram channel emerged, where we upload teasers for our posts from time to time. Each of us wrote our own text, whilst Anna took on the task of setting up our website at the same time.
Outcome of the project
Our articles cover topics such as mental blocks and injuries in competitive sport, amongst other things. We also cover subjects such as equine-assisted therapy and body dysmorphia. Our most important lesson: to make interview requests well in advance.
