▪️ Kindness – a quiet force that connects ▪️
Not about pleasing others, but listening before judging.
Kindness calms the nervous system, lowers stress, builds resilience.
✦ a calm “I see you” in chaos
✦ patience with your own mistakes
✦ care that doesn’t need big words

▪️ Stress – not an enemy, but a signal ▪️
It is a natural reaction of the body – it helps mobilize, protect, and survive. The problem begins when it lasts too long and there is no room for regeneration.

At the Culture Shock Foundation, we strengthen the mental toughness of people and teams operating in unstable conditions. Using the 4Cs model (Control, Commitment, Challenge & Confidence), we help identify what to strengthen to stay balanced & resilient.

We can burn out after work, too – while managing relationships & home or caring for family members without recognition, for example. It’s also work that can be challenging at times, and we deserve rest from this one as well.

15 years of FCS! That equals 5,475 days of growth, mindfulness, and asking difficult questions. From a small collective to a strong & creative team, we’ve tackled burnout, well-being, and spoken about what remains unsaid in NGOs. Thanks for being with us!

Working in an NGO is often a mission, but there should also be room for fair pay and respect.
Decent work means work-life balance, time to rest, and the chance to grow without overload.
And it shouldn’t depend on the type of your contract.

Mental toughness isn’t about pushing through at all costs. 🍀
Take care of yourself, ask for help, and recharge. Small steps: enjoy sunlight, take micro-breaks, try things differently & note 3 wins daily. 🌿

How to act without burning out?
With the POLIN team we mapped burnout, named overload, and searched for ways to regenerate together.
Next: resilience workshops with Karolina Pluta & Paulina Jędrzejewska.

When stress hits, the body feels it first. Just minutes of dance, walking or stretching can restore balance. Not sport. Not performance. Feeling. At Culture Shock we use movement as connection and burnout resistance. What moves you?

Ich nazwiska rzadko pojawiają się w podręcznikach. A przecież to one wnosiły do terapii ciało, relację i uważność.
