This is an optional form. It is strongly encouraged, however, and can only boost your learning and achievement, if you make it a habit.

This component of the makerspace invites you to develop vocabulary for your emotions. You can use the precision of the right word to further develop self-awareness, self-efficacy, and resilience.

The physical and mental checks are taken from MyLife (formerly Stop, Breathe, & Think), which is part of BCSD's focus on mindfulness. The language for emotional states come from Ekmans' Atlas of Emotions.

This can be a space to share good news, updates, concerns, etc., that do not fit elsewhere.

Stress Level

If it will help you to track your stress level, you may record it here each day. You may find that observing it lessens it. You can also choose to write about the source of your stress in the next section. The image is derived from the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale.

This can be done on your best days and your worst with equal efficacy.
