Mindful muscles policy & practice recommendations 2023
| Resumo: | The main objective of Mindful Muscles was to empower athletes and exercisers with Mindfulness, Acceptance, Self-Compassion, and Character Strengths (MASC) to adopt a positive mindset toward their bodies. The Mindful Muscles project aims to support clean sport education and prevent the use of image-and-performance enhancement drugs (IPEDs) in recreational sports settings. To do so, Mindful Muscles uses a positive approach to tackle the factors that can lead to the use of IPEDs in recreational sports, such as body image concerns, physical appearance and performance worries, and anxiety. For this purpose, the project’s consortium has developed a series of research-informed self-administered exercises focusing on Mindfulness, Acceptance, Self-compassion, and Character strengths and values. Erasmus+ Sports Programme funded the project. It was developed on the foundations of previously funded Erasmus+ Sports projects that were completed by members of the Mindful Muscles consortium (e.g., SAFE YOU+, C.S.I, GAME, IMPACT, and DELTS). |
