We all have brains, and we all need to take care of our brains.
HEALyü seeks to create and spread educational mental health resources for both students and adults to foster a community that understands and embraces the importance of caring for oneself.
A Little Bit About Our Team...
HEAL and NüYü both started as community problem solving teams made up
of middle school students. We both recognized issues in our district that
needed to be addressed regarding students' mental well-being. NüYü approached this
by teaching students mindfulness, a technique that allows us to spend more time in the
present moment. HEAL spread mental health awareness through posting on social media
and educating teachers on why students' mental health needs to be something that is
discussed more often.
Now combined, HEALyü continues to spread the message that we all need to take care of
our mental health - whether that be through taking time to do things we enjoy, going to
therapy, or maintaining healthy habits.
