FAQ

Slows is Germany's first Mental Health Gym, focusing on promoting mental health and fitness through preventive measures. We offer courses and workshops to manage stress, enhance emotional intelligence, and develop a deep understanding of one's psyche. Our approach is geared towards prevention rather than the treatment of mental illnesses. For therapeutic support, we recommend specialized facilities.

Slows is aimed at anyone looking to proactively strengthen their mental health—as a preventive measure, not as a substitute for therapeutic treatments. Our offerings are ideal for individuals who want to learn how to manage stress better, enhance their emotional intelligence, and integrate relaxation techniques into their daily lives.

At Slows, you will find a wide range of courses focused on promoting mental health, including stress management, emotional intelligence, meditation, and mindfulness.

We emphasize that our courses are preventive in nature and do not replace the treatment of mental disorders.

Currently, we offer only in-person courses. At Slows, we place great importance on personal interaction and the sense of community that arises in a shared physical space. Our focus is on the offline experience and direct connection.

Slows differs from traditional gyms in several key aspects. Our primary focus is not on physical fitness but on mental well-being and health. Our courses cover areas such as stress management, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness practice, rather than focusing solely on physical exercises. Additionally, we create a space that invites not only physical but, above all, mental strengthening and relaxation—a holistic approach to well-being and mental resilience.

You have the option to cancel your booking up to 12 hours before the course starts. If you need to cancel after that time, it will no longer be possible for us to refund your credit due to logistical reasons.

We love pets, but unfortunately, we can only allow Emma, our hypoallergenic studio dog, in the studio. Other pets must stay at home.

All you need to bring is your presence and willingness to invest in your mental fitness. If any specific materials are required for the course, they will be listed in the course description.

Unfortunately, there are no changing rooms, as our focus is on mental fitness. However, we do provide a lockable restroom if you would like to change there in privacy.

Unfortunately, there are no lockers available. Your belongings will be kept in the same room where the course takes place. Please note that this is at your own risk, and we cannot take responsibility for lost or damaged items.

Regularity is a key element in building mental strength and resilience. Attending a course each week helps deepen what you've learned and integrate it into your daily life. Additionally, it provides a continuous source of support and motivation.

While therapists address the individual psychological issues of their clients, Slows courses provide a preventive and supportive community environment. They are designed to teach general techniques for enhancing mental health rather than treating specific mental disorders.

Group courses foster a sense of community and belonging, which can be extremely valuable for mental health. Participants can support each other and learn from one another. Additionally, the group dynamic can be motivating and encourage participants to engage regularly—everything can happen, but nothing is required!
