Mostly that we are DP students we need mental health and calm more than ever.

What does “Mind Matters” mean to you?
To me, Mind Matters means recognizing that mental health is as important as physical health. It’s about creating space to listen, express, and support ourselves and each other in a compassionate, non-judgmental way.

Mind matters is a really important initiative since people in many places do not consider mental health as an important issue or something to be talked about. Hence, creating awareness about such serious issues is extremely necessary in this age and time. Especially for the teenagers, who go through hormonal changes and worklife pressure in their routine.

Hi My name is Paula, I' m from Bogotá, I study at San José Norte school and I speak English, spanish and a little bit of french.

I really like reading, watching movies, and learning languages. I think something special about me is the way I tell things and how expressive I am. And for me, mind matters is important right now, because so much information we receive every day can affect us, but we don't know how to react to it, or who to tell it to for help.

My name is Felipe Chaves, I'm from Colombia, CNY school, I speak English, Spanish, and quite a tad of French. I really like video games, I absolutely love and relish hearing music all day, I also used to practice basketball for a long time until I dropped it, but still play from time to time. and I enjoy getting to know people around the world. One fun fact about me is that i play the drums often. To me, "Mind Matters" is not only a statement, but also a way of life, since our mental well-being is equally important to our physical health, for example, as they have to be balanced to acquire a convoluted, but healthy build of oneself. I believe that, by getting to know each other, we can nurture and grow our knowledge about different perspectives of what "Mind Matters" really signifies. I reckon this experience will be fun and interesting.

My name is Sivaani Kasibhatla, I'm from Colombia, I study at New York School. I speak English, Spanish and a bit of French, I like sports specially hockey and volley, I love to see hockey games and like to dance. A fun fact about me is that I like to learn languages. For me "Mind matter" means that mental health is important for doing our daily life tasks, even though in some places it is a tabu topic, taking care of our mind is what keep us going through any situation. As an IB student I can assure you that when you don’t take care of your mental health you cannot take care neither of your physical health because the body doesn’t feel calm, instead it is always in an "alert mood", something that is not favorable when you are under a lot of pressure. Students tend to think that by doing everything else without taking care of their mental health they can do better, but the truth is that when you don’t take care of your mental health then you cannot expect to perform better because the mind is just tired. I’m looking beyond my perspective to know how others think of "Mind matters"

Hi, my name is Bhavya Dugar, and I am from India. I am currently studying at Apeejay School International. I speak English, Hindi, Spanish, Korean, and French. I have hobbies such as dancing, singing, music, sports, boxing, learning new things like languages, exploring places, photography, and more. In my opinion, “Mind Matters” is a reminder that our inner world—how we think, feel, and process life—has a profound impact on every aspect of our existence. It means acknowledging that mental health deserves the same attention and care as physical health because our emotional and psychological states shape how we experience the world.

Hello! My name is Luciana and i am a Colombian CNY student, i speak Spanish, english and starting with italian. I love exercising, especially at the gym or training tennis. As a fun fact, I absolutely love formula 1 and traveling the world. Finally, mind matters is the importance of mental health and psychological well being, but it could also be a movement that focus on the mental health awareness. I think is topic is extremely important since your mental health affects every single area of life, if you don’t have a proper mental health or take care of it, your relationships, decision making, productivity and even physical health can be affected. Most people tend to ignore mental health and just focus on the physical, but i think without proper and taken-care-of mental health, every single aspect of your life will be affected. Finally, it’s important to say, that the smallest problems can become diseases like depression, anxiety, etc.

I am from colombia and study at new york school, and speak english and spanish. Some of the things I like are playing sports -specially basketball-, videogames, and reading. A fun fact about me is I like sleeping with plushies. For me, mind matters is important in that it emphasyzes the aspects of our lives as IB students that may not be fully in our control, but that may be very important in the judgement our peers have on us, and our self esteem, and the ways in which we can organize our lives in order to be able to have the best grasp we can in those aspects while not neglecting our relationships and our mental health.
