Well-Being MuralÂ
Before the end of my senior year, a teacher approached me requesting a room renovation: her classroom, the Health Room, had been covered with posters older than myself. She mentioned that for years, she envisioned those posters being replaced with a more colorful, joyous characterization of the topics she teaches in her classroomâphysical, mental, emotional, individual, and community well-being.Â
My Well-Being mural spotlights four attributes of health: physical activity, enjoyment of nature, engaging in hobbies, and healthy eating. To me, these components of life lead to joy and abundance. The sun in the center highlights the overarching message of well-being, which is embodied by the "bubbles" of health. Each bubble shines an important light onto what enriches our lives and pushes us to become truly appreciative plus healthy individuals. My hope is for students to embrace this newly-crafted lively and encouraging atmosphere while learning in this classroom.Â
