MultiSport and MultiLife partners of the “How to change your mind by being active” film.
“How to change your mind by being active” film by the Veritas Foundation is a story about the power of physical activity and its fascinating impact on the human mind and body. It combines expert knowledge with the valuable experiences of sports enthusiasts, including Cezary Pazura and Maciej Stuhr. MultiSport and MultiLife programmes belonging to Benefit Systems have become the project partners. The film will be available free of charge to all interested parties.
The film was created in cooperation between Dr. Joanna Wojsiat (Podgórska) and the originator and creator responsible for direction and execution, the Mojo Movies film studio. By combining science and personal stories, it shows how regular exercise can reduce stress, improve mood, and increase overall happiness. The main characters are famous experts and inspiring people who, through their experiences, show how movement can redefine our lives. The film features Dr. Joanna Wojsiat (Podgórska), Marta Niedźwiecka, Dr. Andrzej Silczuk, Filip Droszcz, Cezary Pazura, Maciej Stuhr and others.
– Making a documentary that highlights conscious movement and physical activity allows us to express what is important to us once again. We believe in a holistic approach to health, and movement is one of the fundamental elements of this approach. We would like to emphasise that regular physical activity is not only a way to improve your physical condition, but also to support your mental health, build a conscious relationship with your body and provide an opportunity for self-discovery. We are happy to create this project with the MultiSport and MultiLife brands which significantly support us in spreading the above ideas and values. We are extremely grateful for this! – emphasises Patrycja Witkowska, President of the Veritas Foundation.
As Dorota Szostek-Rejowska, Marketing Director at Benefit Systems, says, starting a partnership for the film is part of the efforts to promote and increase physical activity in society, which the creator of the benefits has been implementing for years. –The MultiSport and MultiLife programmes were created to promote and support wellbeing, also through physical activity. We are happy to be part of a project that shows how important a role regular physical exercise plays in improving psychophysical health and general wellbeing. We believe that the Veritas Foundation’s film is an important, substantive voice that can be a source of inspiration for many people and an vital argument for starting an active lifestyle – comments Dorota Szostek-Rejowska.
The “How to change your mind by being active” documentary film is available free of charge on the Veritas Foundation YouTube channel.
Additionally, the film was also shown as part of two offline private views at the New Horizons Cinema in Wrocław and at the Wisła Cinema in Warsaw. The opening nights were accompanied by a discussion panel titled “Physical activity as the key to our mind: a debate on mental health” with the participation of creators, experts, and film characters.
The film will also be promoted and made available in the communication channels of the MultiSport and MultiLife programmes, reaching a wide group of professionally active Poles and their relatives who use non-financial benefits created by Benefit Systems.
