Who has a Great Young Mind?

Do you Mind? ‘To Mind’ in this case is to ‘care enough.’ It appears that my young great mind students are mindless of their wellbeing. They believe it is solely their parents’ responsibility to care for all their well-being needs. When it comes to mind and emotional wellbeing, the individual, is the first to reap the reward of the way they think and feel regardless of the situation.

How can a teenager bring awareness to their mind and emotional well-being?

How are young people supposed to look after their well-being when they don't know what they are looking for?

The first step for youngsters to look after their well-being is #awareness. Helping teenagers learn to bring #awareness to what they sense and how they act is the first step to understanding and making positive changes to their well-being.

As you are aware, the human experience of the world starts in mind as #thoughts. Therefore, adolescents need to learn to be curious about themselves and consider the following questions to identify their thinking patterns (positive, negative, or neutral) and know their minds. Think about this;

1. Where do you start with your thoughts?

2. Where do you end/conclude with your thoughts?

3. How often do you intentionally engage and disengage from your thoughts?

Remember, no matter where you start or end with the way you think, this will create the emotions you feel in your body and the result of your action. A balanced state of well-being will require you to strive for a great beginning #agreatbeginning #thebeginnersmind.

What is Youth Wellbeing?

Most young people are expected to take personal responsibilities in looking after themselves. At the same time, they are not taught or shown what to look for in enhancing their wellbeing, "the foundation of their being."

Until recent mental health campaigns, youths' minds and emotional wellbeing have been ignored and seen as a joke. For you as a teenager to be empowered and equipped to look after your health and wellbeing, firstly, you want to be curious about yourself and your wellbeing?

What is Wellbeing

I agree with Diener, Lucas, & Oishi's definition of wellbeing. They defined well-being as a person’s cognitive and affective evaluations of their own life (Diener, Lucas, & Oishi, 2002, p. 63).

A youth’s wellbeing can then be described as how a young person thinks, feels, and functions both on a personal and social level and how he or she assesses their own experiences daily.

It is important as young people learn and develop their thinking capabilities; there’s an equal need to have emotions in mind. And building their confidence towards recreating the balance in strengthening their mind & emotional wellbeing. #manyhappyreturns
