Athletes Talk for Schools – “Mind Gym”
“Shall We Talk” organises “Mind Gym”, a series of talks by athletes for secondary schools, from January to August 2025. Athletes are invited to the schools to share their personal experiences of facing adversities and negative emotions. The aim is to help students learn how to handle stress with a positive attitude and embrace different emotions. At the end of the talks, there will be an interactive game session to help students gain information on mental health, thereby reducing their misunderstanding and discrimination towards people with mental health needs. To learn more about the “Mind Gym”, please refer to the following poster, articles and social media content. The name “Mind Gym” is chosen to emphasise that in addition to training our bodies, adjusting our mindset also contributes to maintaining a balance in our lives. |

【「Mind Gym 健心室」運動員校園巡迴講嘉賓——香港滑板運動員陸俊彥】(Chinese version only)
由初學者到屢次代表香港出賽，陸俊彥至今已經與滑板為伴二十多年。這些年來，他挑戰過無數滑板花式，有容易的，也有極具挑戰的，但他堅信要精通一個花式，練習過程中必然要面對無數次失敗和沮喪，但只要將之視為通往成功的過程，便能夠安然面對，再接再厲。
