In term 3 health, we were given a project to get into groups and find ways to improve the well-being of people. My group consisted of students Jessie, Anna and myself. We decided to focus on stress and how we can prevent stress and help people deal with stress. We came to the conclusion of a “Stress-Free Journal” that we designed for people to use to help them deal with stress.

What were the biggest things you learnt while completing this task?

The biggest things that I learnt while completing this task is how people can be influenced in ways that alter how they deal with stress, such as how my group and I presented a Journal suggesting healthy ways how to deal with stress and by giving them our journal we are influencing to alter how they deal with stress based on strategies our Journal provides/suggests.

What one piece of advice would you pass on to young people with regard to well-being above all else? Why?

A piece of advice I would pass on to young people with regard to well-being is to make sure they have fun in everything they do. I chose this advice because having fun and enjoying as many things as possible is very important to me. It is important to me because I find that at the end of the day, nothing else matters along with the tasks we do every day as long as we are having fun and are happy with what we are doing.

Write down a pledge that you will commit to in regard to your own well-being. Why did you pick these things to commit to? How will you stick to these commitments?

I pledge that I will commit to making sure that I find enjoyment and have fun in everything I do. Whether it is brushing my teeth in the morning or completing my homework, I will find the fun and appreciate the potential of enjoyment in everything I do regardless of its worth. I will stick to these commitments by not letting the negative things get to me and always searching for the positive.
