Athletes Talk for Schools – “Mind Gym”

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——香港硬地滾球運動員何宛淇】(Chinese version only)

香港硬地滾球運動員何宛淇在「Mind Gym 健心室」運動員校園巡迴講上與一眾同學分享自己的運動員生涯。席間她提到追夢的路途上困難不少,並非一帆風順,大至殘奧會上表現失準,小至日常練習毫無進展,她都經歷過。
這些經歷令她慢慢明白到,過份專注於遠大的目標,可能會帶來更多壓力,影響發揮。千里之行始於足下,有時用心做好每一個小環節,達成一個又一個小目標,可以令你累積更多信心,事情或會更加順利。
另外,她勉勵同學面對困難,無須懷憂喪志,因為人生是一趟漫長的旅程,有無數關卡要跨越,無論結果孰好孰壞,只要盡力而為,便可以無愧於心。
