The beginning of a new semester could be a challenging and emotionally distressing time as students navigate new social environments. Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP®) is a simple and powerful process to discover simple, safe, effective and personalized tools to create and maintain one’s wellness in your everyday life.

In the talk, three WRAP® Facilitators, Ms Artemis Leung, Mr Harry Chung and Ms Hody Lee from New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association, leveraged on their personal experience and video about “Miracle of Arthurs Boorman” to illustrate the five core values of WRAP®, namely education, hope, personal responsibility, self-advocacy and support. Importance of pre-planning in navigating ups and downs of life were also discussed.

Leveraging on Padlet, participants shared common stressors that throw them off track, identified their personalised wellness tools and developed a daily maintenance plan to stay on track with their life and wellness goals.
