Sometimes things get rough in our life. Whether it's a struggle with academics, family, friends, or personal, the heavy feeling freezes us. Although it seems like there's no way out at the time, we know our way to overcome tough situations is only a short reach away.

Pause - Take six deep breaths in and notice the feeling in our body. Where do I feel it? How would I call this feeling?
Be resourceful - Know what support is available.
Reach out - It takes one phone call or email to start making things better

How are you Feeling Today?
How are you Feeling Today?
We all have feelings all the time. Sometimes it's difficult to know what it is that we are feeling. A tool like the "Emotion Wheel" below may be helpful in identifying how you may be feeling. Which word best describes your feeling now? Next, can you locate the feeling in your body? Do you feel it in your stomach, head, or chest? Did you find it? Gently take a deep breath in to it for a minute or two. Well done:-)
In Japanese class, you will learn some of the most common feeling words to describe how you feel.
