你有試過…

心情怪怪的，但又形容不了？

明明沒做甚麼，但就是感覺很累？

莫名其妙的會感到煩燥、口乾？

Have you ever tried…

The mood is strange, but can not describe?

You don’t do anything, but you feel tired?

Do you feel irritated and dry-mouthed for no reason at all?

As students, we often face various pressures and challenges, and sometimes we feel anxious, depressed, helpless or lonely. These are all normal emotions, but if we don’t pay attention to them and deal with them, they can affect our physical and mental health and quality of life. So I want to share with you a very important skill: emotional awareness.

Emotional awareness is not difficult and can be cultivated with a little time and effort. Here are some practical ways to do this:

Take a few minutes each day to quiet your mind and pay attention to your breathing, body feelings, and the flow of your thoughts. 

When you encounter a difficulty or a conflict, instead of reacting or judging immediately, try to understand what you are thinking and feeling. 

Use adjectives to describe your emotions, such as happy, sad, angry, surprised, and so on. If you can, you can also use more specific words to break down your emotional levels, such as excited, disappointed, panicked, curious, etc. 

Record your daily mood changes and the reasons for them, either in words, pictures or other ways. 

Share your feelings and thoughts with people you trust and listen to their opinions and suggestions. 

With these methods, you can begin to develop emotional awareness! Believe me, it will do wonders for your happiness!

Of course, being emotionally aware does not mean that you can completely control or change your emotions. Sometimes you may need to seek professional or other resources to help you deal with complex or difficult situations. But at least you’ve started the journey. You’re welcome to explore more about emotions with us, and to activate your “emotion detector” through the Emotional Awareness Workshop!

Three Traps we should avoid when setting our goal

“Remember the goals you set for yourself in 2022? Maybe you’ve achieved some of them, which is worth celebrating. But what about the ones that keep falling through every year? It can be frustrating to see these goals go unaccomplished, despite your initial excitement and motivation. So, why does this happen?

There are three common traps that you may encounter when setting goals. Let’s call them the three #Too’s:

1. Too Big: When goals are too big and far away, it can be challenging to stay motivated and make progress. Instead of setting overly ambitious goals that may not be feasible, try breaking them down into smaller, achievable goals that can be completed in stages. This way, you’ll avoid feeling burnt out or stagnant.
2. Too Broad: Goals that are too broad or abstract can be challenging to plan and implement. To make your goals more concrete and achievable, try being specific about what you want to achieve and set clear metrics for measuring your progress. For example, instead of saying “I want to learn English,” try setting a goal like “I want to improve my English from B1 to B2 in one year.”
3. Too Much: It’s tempting to set multiple goals to become the best version of yourself as quickly as possible. However, it’s not always feasible to accomplish multiple goals in a limited amount of time. Instead, learn to make trade-offs and prioritize the goals that are most important to you. Setting too many goals can lead to stress and burnout, making it difficult to enjoy the journey and ultimately affect your overall efficiency.

By avoiding these three #Too’s, you’ll be better equipped to achieve your goals and feel more fulfilled along the way. So, take a moment to reflect on your goals for this year and see if any of these traps apply to you. Remember, it’s never too late to adjust your goals and create a plan for success.
