On Friday, May 18, a new and exciting educational exhibition entitled \u201cAha, adrenaline!\u201d opened at the AHHAA Science Centre in Tartu. The exhibition focuses on the effects of adrenaline on the human body and teaches you how to cope successfully in stressful situations. <\/p>\n

The new exhibition aims build visitors\u2019 courage and self-confidence. \u201cThere has been a societal shift towards a safe childhood – children with little experience of adrenaline are spending more and more time in structured activities, and coping in an environment without boundaries and limits has become more challenging than ever for young people.\u201d said Andres Juur<\/strong>, Head of the AHHAA Science Centre. <\/p>\n

Neuroscientist Mari Sild<\/strong> and Andero Uusberg<\/strong>, Professor of Affective Psychology at the University of Tartu, were involved in putting together the exhibition. According to Sild, adrenaline affects the metabolism, heals the senses and the mind, increases attention and concentration, but also on the negative side, increases feelings of panic. <\/p>\n

According to Professor Uusberg, facing adrenaline-heavy situations can train courage and self-confidence. \u201cThe better we recognise our body\u2019s reactions to different stressors, the better we can cope with them and regulate our emotions,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n

The exhibition will remain open until November. If you would like more information, visit the official AHHAA Science Centre website<\/span><\/a>.<\/span> <\/p>\n
