Student Wellbeing: A Holistic Approach
Overview
The IMF Student Wellbeing Course is a part of the IMF Mindset Ignite Series, is a transformative course designed to empower students with the knowledge, skills, and practices to enhance their holistic wellbeing and cultivate positive relationships in academic and personal spheres. Through seven engaging modules, students embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and empowerment, gaining valuable insights and tools to navigate life’s challenges with resilience and clarity.
The course begins by laying the foundation for self-awareness, guiding students to explore their inner realities, understand external triggers, and recognise the significance of self-awareness in daily life. Through experiential practices and reflective exercises, students develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their emotional landscapes.
As students progress through the course, they delve into mindfulness practices, learn to cultivate presence, and navigate challenges with mental clarity. They explore techniques for reframing negative thoughts, regulating emotions, and enhancing their emotional intelligence, equipping them with essential skills for navigating relationships and managing stress effectively.
Course Outcomes: Participants learn how to adopt a growth mindset, where students learn to embrace challenges, cultivate resilience, and foster a positive learning attitude. They discover the power of meaningful relationships, learning tools for self-coaching and self-empowerment, setting clear goals, harnessing inner strengths, and overcoming self-limiting beliefs and challenges to achieve success.
In addition to personal growth, students learn the importance of building transformational relationships with educators and peers. They explore effective communication strategies, cultivate empathy and understanding, and create supportive learning environments where every voice is valued and heard.
Benefits for Schools: By prioritising student wellbeing, schools create a nurturing and supportive environment conducive to learning. Students who feel emotionally supported are more engaged, motivated, and better able to focus on their academic pursuits. Moreover, research shows a strong correlation between meaningful teacher relationships, student wellbeing and academic achievement. When students feel mentally and emotionally healthy, they are better equipped to cope with challenges, manage stress, and perform well academically.
