A themed week, "Self-Care Marathon," kicked off at the Unified Support Center for SVO participants and their families ahead of International Women's Day. The series of events is aimed at restoring inner balance and creating a festive mood.
"The wives, mothers, and daughters of SVO veterans are women of great strength and inner resilience. They support their loved ones, care for their families, and keep their homes warm. That's why it's especially important for them to find time for themselves. The 'Self-Care Marathon' isn't just a series of events; it's an opportunity to relax, recharge, and feel cared for and genuinely supported. It's important to us that every participant remembers that self-care isn't a luxury, but a necessary condition for maintaining a healthy lifestyle," noted Daria Starovoitova, Director of the Unified Support Center for SVO Veterans and Their Families.
Over the course of a week, marathon participants will have the opportunity to attend classes in three areas: physical activity, psychology, and creativity. Each day, they will have the opportunity to choose something to suit their interests, whether it's a psychological training session, yoga, or a creative workshop.

The marathon will conclude with a festive art bachelorette party featuring creative and culinary master classes for participants.
