Unlazy Mind – Respite in a cup of coffee

A change in the demographic structure of the society has led to a rise in the elderly population, simultaneously causing an increase in the mental and physical burden on elderly caregivers. The Unlazy Mind team hopes its coffee shop will provide a frontline base for contact with the public. Unlazy Mind aims to inspire people from the helping professions and the community to get involved in social care and concentrate community resources. The cafe provides professional advice and a place for vulnerable groups and caregivers to get a much-needed respite before continuing with their day.

Through its Internet platform, the cafe advertises various stress-relief activities, some of which it holds in cooperation with other organizations. Over time, such activities have touched the hearts of people with stress-filled lives who have suffered in silence for many years. Unlazy Mind Respite Café aims to continue its present mode of operation and become a base for public welfare in the community.

隨著社會人口結構的改變，老年人口比率攀升，長者照顧者的生活負擔及身心壓力不斷增長，心不懶團隊希望以咖啡店作為據點，站在與民眾接觸的最前線，凝聚更多助人工作者與社區民眾，投入社會關懷行列並凝聚社區資源，提供弱勢族群與照顧者喘息服務，讓客人可於店內獲取需要的專業資訊，得到片刻的喘息後再重新出發。

利用網路平台、定期舉辦舒壓活動或與其他機構合作等方式，喘息咖啡慢慢打動長期被壓力束縛的人們那顆勞累的心。未來，心不懶喘息咖啡館也將持續這樣的模式永續經營下去，成為社區關懷公益據點。
