My Wellbeing
The Learning Curve Wellbeing program supports Positive Education and Student Wellbeing with a focus on building healthy, positive and resilient students.
This program includes a series of Weekly Focus panels to cover the entire school year, along with additional resources and exercises.
Mindfulness Activities
Mindfulness is a form of self-awareness where you purposely pay attention to the present moment.
Mindfulness activities allow you to pay attention to your thoughts and feelings and to be aware of your surroundings at that time.
Resilience Builders
Research in the areas of Positive Psychology and building Social - Emotional resilience indicates that to cultivate positive growth mindsets in young people, and to future proof them against mental issues, requires frequent opportunities to use their Character Strengths, self-assess, set self-expectations and experience positive emotions.
Students need to understand and be mindful of their emotions in building relationships, know and use their signature character strengths and habits of mind in their thinking. They need to develop problem solving and positive coping strategies, be able to self-calm with positive and assertive self -talk and know how to seek help when they need to.
Character Strengths
Research conducted on a variety of different cultures, backgrounds and beliefs, identified 24 Character Strengths, which extend across all cultures and are values based.
Character research shows that knowing, developing and applying your distinctive characters strengths contributes to well-being and life satisfaction.
Positive Education
Positive Education as a strand of Positive Psychology has, as its primary focuses, the development of resilience, optimism and the promotion of mindfulness and purpose.
Exercises are designed to strengthen their relationships and engagement with the world around them and create and value a healthy lifestyle.
The keys to Positive Education are:
• Developing a sense of wellbeing for Students (and Staff) thus allowing them to find meaningfulness in everything they do
• Building positive emotions
• Encouraging life qualities to assist achievement at school and at life beyond the bell.
Note: This application is an iPad extension to the Learning Curve Wellbeing Program in use at schools, and is therefore only functional for schools that have implemented a Learning Curve Program and Server.
