Be Well in Paradise’s view of mental wellness

Not a static state of being, mental wellness is a lifelong process and a proactive strategy to strengthen mental, emotional, social, and psychological resources.  On one level, it is about prevention; coping with life’s adversity; and being resilient when we face stress, worry, anxiety, anger or sadness.  On another level, mental wellness moves us toward a deeper, richer, and more meaningful human experience, often described as flourishing.

Be Well in Paradise is seeking to award $1,000 in scholarships to students enrolled in studies dealing with mental wellness.
