The Nursing College of Alicante launches from september 26 a new course aimed at the entire population, in which those registered will be taught to control their feelings and emotions, improving their well-being and that of their families and friends.
The pandemic has shown an increase in emotional disturbances in the adult and youth population of many countries in the world.
In Spain, the Mental Health Survey during the pandemic carried out by the CIS, which included a representative sample of the adult population of more than 3,000 people, found that 15.8% of the population reported having experienced panic attacks. In addition, 11.3% of the population expressed concern about the negative consequences of these attacks (CIS, 2021).
On the other hand, according to data collected in the 2021 Youth Barometer, prepared by the Mutua Madrileña Foundation and the FAD Youth Foundation, 35.4% of young people have ever had suicidal thoughts, and 8.9% have them often.
Taking these data into account, and in order to improve the emotional well-being of the population, the online course entitled ‘How to manage your feelings and emotions to improve your well-being‘. The objective of this course is to teach a series of keys for people to improve their emotional well-being.
