Despite the increasing focus on emotional intelligence and mindfulness in recent years, these practices are still not widely adopted, particularly among young people. Studies indicate that youth experience mental health issues at higher rates than other age groups, yet they are less likely to seek help. To make matters worse, in this day and age young people are hooked on their digital screens and the dopamine they get from various platforms. A lot of them follow an unhealthy lifestyle, spending little time outside, disconnected from nature and following unhealthy diets. They are also more stressed than ever, making the issue of promoting their mental health and well-being more crucial than ever. Through Mindful You(th) we aimed to reconnect through disconnect. To disconnect from the buzz and stresses of urban life, by implementing the project in the serene Moroccan desert and entice the participants to adopt mindfulness practices within their daily lives to develop their emotional intelligence through techniques of reconnecting with one’s self (meditation) and with nature (outdoor education).
