This activity journal is designed as a key resource for youth workers to enhance their well-being through practical, micro-learning activities. These resources are tailored to equip youth workers with a diverse range of coping skills and strategies that can easily be integrated into their daily lives and self-care routines.
By engaging with these tools, youth workers will be able to reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and boost self-esteem. As they practice and refine these techniques, they will gain greater awareness of their physical, emotional, and mental needs. In turn, this awareness will empower them to advocate more effectively for their well-being.
Throughout the journal, youth workers are encouraged to reflect on and log their experiences with each of the 30 micro-learning activities. This includes noting how each activity supports their well-being, the impact it has, and the feasibility of incorporating it into their ongoing self-care routines. This reflective process will not only support personal growth but also provide valuable insights for sustained well-being.
