University of Innsbruck Launches Healthy Minds Year 2025/26
The University of Innsbruck has kicked off its Healthy Minds Year 2025/26, offering employees a range of workshops to strengthen mental health. The personnel development department, in collaboration with the University Sports Institute Innsbruck (USI), transformed spaces into tranquil training areas, providing 'brain food' and information materials post-workshops.
Workshops, held directly at three university locations, covered a variety of topics, from mindfulness to Qigong. Participants could take home brain food from Tyrolean company Verival to boost energy. The USI, which offers in-depth courses on mental training and neuroathletics, transformed a meeting room in the Agnes-Heller-Haus into a neuroathlete training workshop and a seminar room at the Technikerstraße campus into a small meditation oasis. Employees can find more information on the focus year on the website 'uni innsbruck | gut drauf!' and check the USI's course program for Winter Semester 2025/26, running from October 6, 2025, to January 31, 2026, on their official website.
The University of Innsbruck's Healthy Minds Year 2025/26 encourages employees to consciously strengthen their mental health. With workshops held at convenient locations and resources provided, the initiative aims to help employees discover new sources of strength and maintain a healthy mind.
