Task description: This term for my DLO I had to present a movie of a day in the life of a person who takes care of themself and their body. This is because our theme for this Term is ‘fit for purpose’. Meaning I had to create an animation of a day in the life of a child who has a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
Some possible factors to include could be:
- Eating well
- Sleeping well
- Exercising
- Meditating
- Positive attitude
- Self talk
- Etc
Our animation were expected to include a voice over to add greater detail and information for our audience. Our animation should also include music to engage our audience and be shared on our blog. I had to explain and show what I’m doing and what we’re learning by doing this experiment. After that, I had to put my animation into “iMovie” and turn it into a full movie.
My movie had to show a day in the life of a healthy person. The first thing a healthy person would do is sleep well as it improves your brain performance, mood, and health. Anothing thing a healthy person does before they start their day is give themself a positive self-talk to improve self-esteem, stress management and wellbeing. Also brushing their teeth and washing their face because that is a part of hygiene and good personal hygiene is one of the best ways to protect yourself from getting infectious or diseases such as COVID-19, colds and flu.
Eating healthy food because a healthy diet is essential for good health and nutrition. It protects you against many persistent noncommunicable diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Next is exercise which is also really important to improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.
Lastly a good thing to do on a daily basis is something I call “Me Time ” and during that time you do what you want, something you love, something relaxing, such things could be:
Self care: Doing a self-care routine has been proven to reduce or eliminate anxiety and depression, reduce stress, increase happiness, and more.
Listening to music: Provides a total brain workout and research has shown that listening to music can reduce anxiety, blood pressure, and pain as well as improve sleep quality, mood, mental alertness, and memory.
Alone time: Alone time is a great opportunity for self-reflection and self-discovery.
It’s just some time for you to take care of yourself and relax.
Anyways now that we have come to the end of my movie I hope you enjoyed seeing things you can do to stay healthy, mentally and physically. I try my best to do most of this on a daily basis. I enjoyed this task very much, and I hope to do more like this soon. Hope you enjoyed it. Please leave a comment; thank you for visiting my blog.
