PROJECTS
The intention of this project is to educate and spread issues of body image awareness so that children and parents can boost confidence and to face the issues together to overcome their challenges to lead a healthy life. Body image and self - esteem that are among children are very common and have kept increasing over the generations due to the society exposing many images in the media such as television, magazines, movies etc. that show the “beauty standards”. Repeatedly exposed to images in social media can harm their perception of body image and feeling their body is not enough and they would like to change themselves to fit and be accepted in society. These types of feelings can affect a child's mental health and well being.
The external project is part of the Embracing Our Differences Competition which aims to interpret the theme “enriching lives through diversity”. In creating a society where diversity is embraced and individuality is celebrated. Body Image are people’s thoughts, feelings and perception of their own appearances and aesthetics. It can also obtain their own judgment of how attractive their body is. Body Image is universal which means that it differs in multiple cultures and expectations of the ideal body image. In the society that we currently live in and different cultures standards people are generally always pressured to be the ideal and are not satisfied with themselves. It is hard to accept yourself when the beauty standards are too unrealistic. Not just women, men also face the same issues and insecurities.
Mental Health can vary, there are wide ranges of experiences and symptoms. One spectrum of mental health is depression which is the feeling of hopelessness and worthlessness, the other can be flourishing which indicates purpose and meaning. Languish is just in between, you’re not depressed but also not flourishing, it just means they are getting by with life. The intention of this project is to help with people who deal with anxiousness. Studies shows that colouring will help relax and calm the body.
Languishing can be described as the feeling of ‘emptiness and stagnation’. A lot of people might even describe themselves as feeling hollow or empty inside. Though languishing isn’t considered a clinical illness, it is known as the absence of mental health. Thought languishers do not show symptoms of mental health, it doesn't not mean the in a good mental condition. This project is a form of a journal book which will help people going through languishing in journaling how they feel and what are some of their goals. The journal is a way for them to express feelings by writing it all down, whether it is good or bad.
