OVERVIEW
Research shows many young people are struggling to cope with school and life challenges. With added pressures of social media, mental health issues, such as anxiety and eating disorders, addiction, and depression, have increased, and the incidents of bullying, self-harm, and suicide have increased. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Engaging, interactive, and impactful, students discover:
• The “5 monkeys” shaping poor mental health in young people
• Healthy and practical ways to cope with stress, anxiety, and depression, and build their emotional muscle.
• The power of reaching out and breaking the ‘fear’ barrier.
