@CharismaKeeping I too found my mood improved when spending time with loved ones. Talking to them also helps me when I am feeling the pressures of stress. I try to be there for friends and family when I notice they feel down by asking them what is wrong and listening to them as well! #hkr1000
My number one stress management technique for school is to break up tasks and focus on completing one thing at a time. That way it helps to make the workload appear lighter and less daunting. It also helps me to experience small wins throughout a paper or project. #hkr1000
Through MoodCheck I learned that I become most stressed when I have a paper/assignment due or exam approaching. After reading this week's material I discovered that I deal with stress by surrounding myself with loved ones and making time to take a break from school work. #hkr1000
@rachel_hawco Pt 2: ...before LOOKING healthy. They focus on cutting down their weight to look how society portrays what it means to be healthy and thus deprive their body of the proper fuel and nutrients and their health suffers.

@rachel_hawco Pt. 1: Nice article! Just because someone doesn't "look" healthy doesn't mean they aren't - & vice versa - someone who looks healthy may be suffering from malnutrition. Many people get caught up on looks and forget that it is important to focus on BEING healthy...

It is important to continue exercising as it does not take long to loose muscle mass which is increasingly dangerous as we get older. If we allow our muscles to deteriorate we will begin to loose the strength to conduct daily activities as we age #HKR1000

@GouldingMarcy Very true Marcy! It is important for us students who spend a lot of time sitting at our desks to stretch out and focus on relieving tension in our bodies. I find it not only helps me physically but also mentally by allowing me a moment to destress! #HKR1000
It is interesting that 63.27% of our #HKR1000 said they have a guiding moral compass, belief in something beyond oneself but only 31.97% have a religious faith. I think it is important to believe in something as it helps to motivate you even if it is not a traditional religion.
