Some recent and unfortunate events at Semiahmoo Secondary manifested into the idea of creating a mental health app. Stigma and lack of awareness can often result in people not prioritizing their mental health, and taking the steps they need to alleviate themselves from a difficult situation. People need to view mental health support, with the same pair of eyes they do for exercise, and going to the gym, as both are necessary for a strong and healthy person. Recent interest in spirituality and mindfulness inspired the ideas of Gratitude, Goal, and Reflection journaling, as these are the ideas that Robin Sharma, Bob Proctor and many more spiritual leaders reinforce into their daily lives.
