Health and Wellness Workshop

The health and wellness workshop we visited was both informative and interesting. I enjoyed learning the different types of strategies in order to live a less stressful and joyful lifestyle. On the other hand, as I mentioned in my monologue I am the least stressful person and find nothing serious so this workshop did not really persuade me to change anything about my life, just informed me on ways to be less stressful. I did however love the stress ball they gave us and although it is supposed to be used for squeezing and releasing stress, I enjoyed bouncing it around the remainder of the day. I love being calm and stress free so this was a very easy workshop to relate to however I did not enjoy the meditating. This is solely because all the times in my childhood where a speaker would come in and promote meditating and show how to do it, I personally never found any change before and after doing it. Meditation, for me personally, seems useless and I do not enjoy it in any way. I would much rather just stay stress free myself and remain calm then resort to ten minutes a day of sitting in silence and breathing. I did enjoy the hand exercises though because those actually felt good. Between the stress ball and the hand exercise’s, I think the workshop was well worth it and enjoyable.
