Youth-Led Mental Health Project: Care to Self Care?

ME:flection - Youth-made wellbeing sticker pack encouraging daily wellbeing and reflection.

Auckland

Meet Victoria (Year 12) and Angela (Year 9) Sung from Westlake Girls High School, the winners of Reconnect’s “Care to Self-care?” Youth Mental Health Competition.

Their idea, ‘Mirror Check-In’, has now been brought to life as ME:flection Stickers, in collaboration with Reconnect. These will be manufactured and shared with the community to inspire & support everyone in engaging in intentional movement.

The movement is to encourage youth to care for themselves and also extend that care outward to others.

ME:flection Stickers are small, transparent reminders placed on mirrors or windows to turn everyday moments i.e. like washing hands, brushing your teeth or getting dressed.. into opportunities for emotional reflection.

In a fast-paced world, they make self-care effortless, accessible, and part of your daily routine. Instead of asking for extra time or energy, these stickers transform ordinary routines into mindful check-ins. They are designed to implant micro moments of positivity, gently build emotional awareness, resilience and encourage kindness to self & others.
