Healthy mind, healthy body

For the 12th Vikos Crossing, we visited together with the most expert scientists in the field in Greece, ten villages of Zagori, with a tour of cultural monuments, old stone bridges, gastronomic surprises and unique paths, in the North Pindos National Park.

We heard in detail about the relationship between exercise and walking, with mental and cerebral functions, the human body and mental health. The mind and body are an indivisible unit, the degradation of which has negative consequences for physical and mental health. Proper nutrition and exercise lead to good body and mind function at all ages.

In the land beyond, we believe that hiking, especially in nature, contributes to personal peace and social peace, stimulates the mood of generosity, alleviates disproportionate competition and conflict, highlights the ranking. Exercise, especially in the mountains, is behind the birth of important ideas, is a source of inspiration and creativity.
