Day 1 in Orealla and our second stop on the journey! 🌟

From bus rides to boat crossings, the Project Wellness Within team made their second stop in Orealla Secondary School to connect with 35 incredible students ready to learn, share and grow.

Our facilitators Michelle Amsterdam led powerful conversations on mental health & social wellness, while Laurel Seales created an open space to explore sexual & reproductive health.

Different places, new faces and meaningful conversations that’s what this journey is all about. 💛

Coping doesn’t have to be serious all the time 💙
Sometimes it’s memes. Sometimes it’s music.

Find what works. Keep what helps. ✨

Wellness is how you care for your body, mind, feelings, space, and people around you.

Little habits. Big impact. 🌱✨

We told you what to expect and now it's finally time to deliver ‼️🚗

Our journey to Wellness Within is underway, and the first stop was "The Benab" at St. Cuthbert's Mission. 🛖 📍

Under The Benab, the Wellness Within Team was joined by Mr. Jarrod Crockett, the Public Affairs Officer at the U.S. Embassy in Guyana, who emphasized the need for holistic wellness and applauded the youths for taking the time to invest in themselves.

This leg of the journey lasted 2 days and saw us interacting with 32 students ages 13 through 17 at various workshops.

Day 1 comprised interactive sessions and guided reflections on mental, social and emotional wellness facilitated by Ms. Michelle Amsterdam, who created a supportive environment and encouraged participants to reflect, connect and express themselves openly.
Youths can feel like they don't have a place of belonging. Do you know where you belong? 🤔

Stay tuned to find out what happened on Day 2‼️😉
