My natural high is baseball cause it's fun and because you can be with your friends and play. I started playing baseball when I was 6 in T-ball and that's when I found out that baseball was my sport and my chance to be good at something and I still play baseball. Right now till this day I have 4 MVP awards and have 9 game balls. I play pitcher and shortstop but also play for Glocester little league and All Stars. If you're looking to try and play baseball just remember that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win, it's part of the game.

My Natural High is Drawing While Listening to Music

# data[].attributes.body
My natural high is listening to music and drawing. This became my natural high when I made one of my friends. We would draw together most of the time because that was what she enjoyed doing. Very soon, I started to enjoy it too. Music seems like nice background noise that makes me feel good and any other emotion depending on the type that I am listening to. This is my natural high because it is a fun and calm activity that can take your mind off things.

My message to you is a reminder that drugs are not the answer. Look into things you're interested in and start searching for your natural high today!

My natural high is playing the clarinet in band because I find it relaxing to go to band after lunch and take a break from learning.

I chose to play the clarinet in band because a few of my family members have also played the clarinet and they all enjoyed their experiences with it so I decided I would try it out and over the past few months I have grown to love it.

Everyday I find it stress relieving to take a break from learning and be able to play the clarinet. Playing in band can also make you feel proud because when you see how far you have come from when you started it can amaze you.

I would never want to lose my natural high, and I don't want anyone else to lose their natural high either, so stay drug-free.

I love soccer because it is a fun sport you can play with your friends, with your cousin, or family. I chose soccer because when I was a kid I saw soccer on the television and I was so excited to play soccer. I joined a team and I love it.

Soccer makes me feel better, clears my brain so I can have fun. I enjoy playing with my friends and my team so much. We go to Colombia to play soccer and it was so cool. I enjoy meeting new people and my favorite part and soccer is having fun. Soccer makes me feel good and I can be myself. Sometimes I feel anxious because I feel we are going to lose, but actually sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, and that is ok.

Natural Highs are something that makes you happy naturally. My natural high is playing basketball. This all started when I was 5 years old and my mom gave me two options, either I play basketball or I sit at home being bored all day. So I (obviously) said I wanna play basketball. After I started playing I loved it. I started playing more often I got better and I really enjoyed it. Now fast forward 4 years later and I finally asked my mom to play travel and competitive basketball she hesitated but said yes and since everything costs a fortune I promised that I would go to every practice no matter what. Now for travel everyone made the team but for competitive the tryouts I felt some pressure even though there was none. but when tryouts were done I felt relief because I counted how many times I felt like I was gonna die in 2 hours, about 17. All of the basketball I do is very enjoyable and I don't care if I'm the best at what I like to do I'm just happy that I can do basketball with my friends. That is my Natural High.

My natural high is softball. I chose softball because it is my absolute favorite sport to play outside of school. I first started this spring, even though I had been thinking about playing for some time. I love being able to play with my friends and throw the ball back and forth at the beginning of each game. Ever since I started softball, I have connected with more people I most likely would have never met. Before the season ended, I would love to go to each game just to have fun playing and joking around with my teammates. Even after the season is over, I still hit the ball around and play catch here and there when I have free time. Softball is my natural high, and I hope yours is drug-free!

I chose dance as my natural high because, when I started dancing I did not know if I really liked it or if I wanted to quit but when I stepped into my dance studio I knew this was for me. When I was very little I would always dance in my living room because It just made me happy. And since then I still do dance. I never quit because I know this is what always lightens my day if it had a rough start. So I started practicing hard and finally made it into a company class. By Natalie Corte

My Natural High: Playing hockey and Ice Skating

# data[].attributes.body
My name is Wyatt Westgate and my natural high is playing hockey and ice skating.

I got started with playing hockey and ice skating a year ago when my mom suggested I join learn to skate/play at the Smithfield ice rink. With the first 4 classes it was hard because I wasn't getting the help I needed until on the 4th class someone brought out a support for me to use and I just started skating. The person who was working with me told me to let go of the support and I was able to skate! After a few more classes of learning how to stop and get faster while skating, I moved on to the learn to play class and that is where I am now. Skating makes me feel stressless, thrilled, and free which altogether makes my life better. Instead of choosing drugs and alcohol and finding your own natural high like I have, you can live a fun, joyful, and sober lifestyle

I got into my natural high by meeting my best friend who played all these different sports. This activity makes me feel great, like there is nothing in the world that could stop me. The thing I enjoy most about this is the teamwork, the scoring of a goal or basket, maybe even the loss and coming back to play another day. The positive impact is that it shows me what a good person would do with a loss or a win, to not be a sore loser. I meet my best friends by playing sports. It has made me come a long way and has made me more mature.

My natural high is baking. Whenever I am in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes, I feel adventurous and joyful.

I started baking when I was very young (only using the boxed cake/brownies mix). As I got older, I tried new recipes, and even made some up! I have made a bunch of different things including, candy bar cookies, whoopee pies, mini ice cream cakes, s'more cupcakes, and even cookie dough brownies! I can't eat all of these treats myself, so I give them away to different people, when I see them enjoying it, it makes me delighted!

Baking has helped cut down on stress and anxiety. It helps me focus on something that I enjoy doing, without my mind wandering onto something more stressful. It also makes me feel productive, as when I get older, cooking and baking will be a life skill that I will need to know.

My natural high has helped me throughout my life. If you find your natural high, it could bring you so much joy, and reduce anxiety!

I chose sports as my natural high because when I play sports such as basketball I always have fun when I'm playing with my friends. When I first started playing basketball I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it that much but I'm glad that I did try it because I wouldn't be able to have as many friends from other schools as I do now. The positive impact that basketball and other sports have had on my life is being a good teammate, learning not to be a sore loser and meeting new people from other schools.

My natural high gotta be story writing or Poetry. I think this is my natural high because it really makes my mind go into my own world of dreams and fantasy. Poetry or writing brings out an imaginative side of you that has no end. With the art of Poetry is so beautiful with just reading poetry it's like it was made for you. I found that Poetry has made me think in ways I have never had before. It also feels like it is my life. And poetry can lead you to great things like Poetry inspired me to create my own books and Poems (they have not been finished yet). Maybe Poetry can lead you to be a great author or a story producer.

My natural high is being at Disney with my family. I choose this because it makes my heart happy. I love seeing everyone in my family so happy. We started this activity in January and now we go to Disney every 6 months usually. What I enjoy most about Disney is walking around every hotel property. I also love to try all the new foods and different ones you wouldn't see every day. And guess what the transportation system around Disney is awesome. There's a monorail a whole bunch of buses skyliner and a boat. And if you wanna pay some money you can get a Minne van that has screens in it playing all types of fun Disney tales. Disney really reduces my stress and if you didn't know I have a whole lot of stress so that really helps. I have made friends with kids at pools at hotels in Disney from all across the country.

For my natural high, I chose basketball. I chose this because it is fun to play with my team. I started playing basketball because my parents told me it would be fun. I didn't think I would like it but I tried it anyway. Basketball makes me feel joyful, even when I am just watching a game. Basketball is my favorite way to have fun with my friends.

My natural high is learning songs on the piano.I don't take lessons for the piano I just like learning songs on it.I started playing piano a couple months ago [2 months]. I like to play by myself when I'm home alone because I can play it really loud and I got into piano because of my dad actually. He taught me a piece of a song when I was eight and I just started playing again because I'm home alone a lot . I have learning clips of songs like have you ever seen the movie up? Well I can play the song from it. Or have you ever seen inside out? I can play the theme of that too. One of the songs I actually just learned called fur elise I cant play the whole thing but I can play a clip. What I mean by clip is if you know the song fur elise imagine the first couple parts and then stop That is what I can play. But you should try piano its a very nice outlet for musical experimentation and trying new instruments because its very easy and sounds very nice.
