| Description | Within the Development Projects of the Ministry of Education a consultancy centre for students and employees of the Masaryk University has been established in order to solve crisis situations of people in need. In this project lessons of psychomotor therapy, which focuses on motor activities within the field of kinesiotherapy, have been conducted in 2007. These lessons have been attended among others by seniors who took part in the project of the University of the Third Age. During the particular lessons we enabled them to manage the individual attitudes towards managing stress situations and we helped them to find suitable coping strategies of managing demanding life situations. Via the SEIQoL questionnaire we surveyed the attitude towards the quality of life and towards the inner feelings and experience of seniors including the value orientation and health aspects. After one year of work with this group we evaluated the acquired results and pieces of information. |
