         <description><![CDATA[<p>In my image, the yellow represents my outright feelings, outlining my figure as that’s what people will typically notice about myself and others at first. The orange represents the past present and future, at the top of my head representing the reoccurrence of these thoughts. My loved ones are the pink, diving my most reflected areas in my head. Finally the things I love to do make me who I am and fill the rest of my figures body. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My family and friends are represented by pink, and I put the colour right on my heart as they mean the most to me. For red, I was inspired by the YouTube video we watched, and labeled it as girls and put it near my head as I spend too much time thinking about them. Music is blue, and it radiates through my entire body as it’s an important piece of my life. The rest are other things that bring me happiness.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Each colour in my drawing represents something that I feel makes me well-balanced. Family and friends (red) are always on my <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://mind.Green">mind. Green</a> for the physical activity that allows me to keep moving in my everyday life. Yellow for fashion helps me express myself. Blue for food since it provides me with energy and I just enjoy tasting the wonders around the world. Pink at the bottom is for rest and sleep, which is essential to me.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In the following image, I used different colours to represent who I am</p><ul><li><p>The pink in the centre of my figure represents my inner peace, softness, and self love. It’s the part of me that I protect but that also grounds everything else.</p></li><li><p>The yellow layer reflects my positivity, light, and the warmth I try to carry with me in how I move through life and interact with others.</p></li><li><p>Purple stands for growth:   I’ve been evolving a lot recently, and this layer shows how much I’ve been working on myself emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.</p></li><li><p>The blue outline represents my aura and personality: It’s calm and reflective of who I am overall, what people see and feel when they’re around me.</p></li><li><p>Together, the layers show different parts of me: what I keep close, what I radiate outward, and what I’ve been building over time.</p></li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The red circle in the centre is my heart --- my core, purpose and peace, which comes from God. The same red circle is also in my head, because part of the journey is for my inner heart knowledge to go to my head as well so that it can transform the way I think and act, based off the knowledge that I am loved. The blue area in my head represents intellectual knowledge and a passion for learning, it's the area I use for school and when I write essays. The yellow outline around my whole body is outward facing --- it's how I interact with others and the world, in which I try to be positive and a light. The rest of the parts that is green is my reflective state, where in my own body I am constantly taking in things from the world and, mixed with my core values like family and friends, I reflect on what matters to me and what does not. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>First of all, I hope the impression I give others is positive and nice, so I hope the aura I emit is warm yellow. Secondly, I hope my brain can be a coexistence of sensibility and rationality. I think sensibility is pink, representing my emotions and fantasies, and rationality is blue, which can represent that I am a person with logic and thinking. Red occupies my heart, filled with my family and friends. For the remaining colors, I choose green, representing that I am a healthy and lucky person 🍀.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This drawing reflects what’s been filling my mind and body lately. Pink on the head stands for family and friends—they keep me supported and remind me who I am beyond deadlines. Green on the arms and feet is shopping and exercise—two things that help me release stress and feel more like myself. The blue across my shoulders and chest represents university, which often weighs on me but also pushes me to grow. Gray in the center is music—it’s always playing in the background, like a quiet source of calm. Purple on my legs is my job, something that keeps me moving forward but sometimes drains my energy too. This image made me realize how many things I carry at once—and how they all shape who I am.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I've used six colors in my art therapy piece to represent God, family, health, friends, hobbies, and school. God forms the peaceful, purposeful core of my identity. Family closely surrounds that core. Health traces outward. My mind is dominated by friends and hobbies, intertwined, with school also shaping my student identity.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>First, I drew a person in motion to represent dancing, as it has been a meaningful part of my life since elementary school. The outermost layers are outlined in light green and orange, symbolizing how others perceive me. My friends always tell me that they consider me as a positive, happy, stress-free, and energetic person. However, I included another layer colored in black to indicate the protective shield I tend to put up when interacting with people. It's hard for me to share my deep emotions and worries, even with family and friends. Then, the limbs colored in beige are ordinary daily activities I engage in to make me feel grounded. For example, cooking for myself, taking a walk near the beach, exercising, studying, etc. On top of that, I added light purple hearts to imply the unexpected sparks of happiness that would make up my day, such as seeing a beautiful rainbow on the way home after a stressful day preparing for exams. Next, the bigger colorful heart outlined in pink represents my passion for music and singing. Whether I'm sad (darker blue), happy (yellow), excited (brighter blue), or having negative thoughts of self-doubts or discouragements (dark purple), music serves as my emotional outlet and heals me magically every time. At the center, the red heart represents friends and family who mean the most to me. Finally, the darker green, heart-shaped plant I drew represent the part of me that is still growing and person I want to become. I wish I can develop a strong mindset to not be easily influenced by the perspectives and judgments of others.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my image, I chose 6 colours that represent what I felt was inside me at the moment of drawing. I started at my core, the red heart represents my companion animals (My pets), after a long tough day, seeing them is what truely makes me feel better. They remind me about why I am working hard in school and at work. Around my heart, I have a blue circle that represents my family/friends, similar to my animals, they are the people that remain at my centre, keeping me balanced. The rest of me is filled with pink and purple, these colours represent work and school, these are two things that have constantly been on my mind as majority of my time is spent at work or at school. Outlining myself is blue, which represents my outwards personality, this is what other people will see when they talk to me. Finally, in blue, I have growth. I have growth on my mind as it is something that I am constantly thinking about, especialy since I am almost done my undergraduate degree. Before I took this class, I probably would have wrote "The future" in my mind. But I have since changed my mindset, instead of being stuck on what the future will be and how I will get to the future I want, instead I am starting to think about how I can grow as a person and how I can "GROW" into the future I envision. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I used some of my favourite colours as well as colours I associate with certain things. I chose pink to represent my outright personality because I hope to come across as a loving and friendly person! I used red to represent the things I hold closest to my heart and a darker pink to represent other things I am grateful for like nature, an education, and food. I used blue to represent health and nutrition, like eating healthy and drinking water. I used different shades of green to represent school and work as these are things I spend lots of time thinking about. Finally, I love working out and trying new ways to stay active/new hobbies, so I coloured that in orange. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Red and pink are the physical aspects of my life, and the support from the people close to me. Green refers to my belief in “carving my own path” with a growth mindset and a good attitude; yellow. Blue relates to emotions and sometimes mental stress.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I chose to use all of my favourite colours to represent the things I hold closest to me and make me up as a person. The colour green represents my family and friends, I drew it exploding out of my heart because these relationships are the most important in my life and bring me the greatest peace and joy. The hot pink represents my passions and courage, two things that I hold dear. The colour orange symbolizes my love of reading books while drinking coffee, it also reminds me of my mom since we go on these little dates together. The yellow represents my love of crafts and creating, I am very grateful to be able to make things with my own hands and to become inspired through my own art. Lastly, the colour purple represents my love of fashion, specifically shoes. I love expressing myself through my style and experimenting with different pieces! </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This image represents the key support of my life. I placed red color near my heart and brain since it reflects how important emotional awareness and adjustments are to my health. The yellow color is around the heart, which shows the love and stability I received from close relationships. Blue spreads across my body since music is an indispensable part of my daily life. They are feelings I can’t express in words. The green color represents the energy that my physical activities bring to me, and the purple on my legs reveals that I desire to move through traveling.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my image I chose 5 colours to showcase the key main things that revolve around me. Orange was for family friends and how they shape a huge part of my life: my actions, decisions, my emotions and support systems in my life. Whereas the Navy was for food and sleep - I love to sleep and eat which also allows my body physically and mentally get a break and restart myself. Yellow was for my passion and involvement in community work I am involved in. It shapes up a huge part of my life and also falling into parts of my social circle. Lastly, Light blue being physical activity from dance to working out how I keep myself engaged and active. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In this body map, each color represents something meaningful about how I experience and carry different aspects of my life. Light pink fills my chest because I keep my family, friends, and my partner close to my heart. They are the emotional center of everything I do. Light purple surrounds my head to show how reading completely engulfs my mind. It’s where I find focus, calm, and escape. Orange wraps around my brain to represent emotional intelligence, which shapes how I process and respond to the world. My eyes are blue to reflect how photography and videography influence the way I perceive life through frames, light, and captured moments. Red is placed on my face as a reminder of my Filipino heritage, something I carry with pride and visibility. Yellow outlines the whole body to symbolize a people-pleasing personality that often shapes my outer interactions. Underneath that, green flows through to show the resilience that runs just beneath the surface. It is quieter but foundational. Hot pink trails through my chest because music surrounds my soul and speaks for me when words cannot. Brown grounds my feet to represent how my job keeps me active and moving. It is often what gets me up and going each day. Lastly, bright purple sits in my stomach like a lingering sickness. That’s university. It feels like stress wrapped in expectations, but it is also part of the journey I have chosen.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my image, I chose five colours to represent the key elements that revolve around me.</p><p>In the innermost layer, I used red to represent family and friends, which I consider the most important things in my life. Then, I used pink to symbolize academics,being a student, I naturally see my studies as a top priority. Yellow stands for self-improvement, which is also very important to me, as one must constantly grow to become a better person. The outermost layer is blue, representing personality. I believe personality is sometimes like a person’s outward appearance. Since people experience different emotions—whether happy or sad—and these emotions influence the brain, I used purple to represent emotion and placed it in the area of the brain in my image.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My body map shows 7 zones that represent different parts of my body. At the core of my heart, my family and partner guide me through all aspects of what I do, these are the first people I can count on for support. Close to them are my closest friends, which make up the bulk of my support system. Those that I have not had the privilege of knowing as well are the outermost heart, symbolizing support for broader issues. My mind is focused on my career, goals, and dreams, as they require the most thought and decision-making. My the green in my body represents my desire to be healthier and look after my own wellbeing. My hands and feet are responsible for my love of art, my hobbies, and my desire to self-express. Finally, the interface of me and my environment is separated by my open-mindedness, friendliness, curiosity, and empathy.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In my image, the pink surrounding my body represents the positive energy I radiate. Green, which is on my mind, symbolizes growth and prosperity, qualities I aspire to develop throughout my academic journey. Light blue stands for peace and new beginnings, reflecting my hopes for the future. At my core, I chose yellow to represent the happiness and comfort I receive from my family. Maroon signifies my passionate nature and the hobbies I deeply enjoy. Dark green reflects my gratitude and personal growth. The Navy represents my strength and discipline in maintaining a healthy lifestyle and nourishing my body. Purple symbolizes my ambition to stay active and engage in additional physical activities.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>School and the future are the two topics I believe I need to take seriously and think about most right now, so I have placed them at the top of my mind and represented them with light blue and white. Next are family and friends, who are always in my heart. Music, food, and happiness are what I believe give life meaning, so I have placed them on my upper body and represented them with blue, orange, and purple. My physical health is also important because it allows me to live longer and have more time to enjoy life, so I have placed it on my lower body and represented it with green. Finally, I have used yellow to represent the positive and friendly side of myself that I show to others.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This image represents my personal balance and focus areas. The blue and green in the head symbolize thoughts on growth, career goals, and my responsibilities to the society. The red circle on the chest shows how central my family is to me. My friends and external support systems surround the red circle in pink. Yellow and purple reflect my need for health and how I express my self to the society, while orange around the neck represents relaxation, rest and enjoyment.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Every colour here is honestly me. Yellow is for the tiny moments I let myself feel okay,&nbsp; like when I sat in the sun or laughed with someone I trust. Blue is the calm I kept searching for but couldn’t always find. Pink is all the stress I pretended wasn’t there. Green is the healing that’s happening hmm lets say super slowly. Purple is the spiral of thoughts that keeps me up at night. Orange is the energy I force when I am exhausted. And Magenta, well that’s the hardest,&nbsp; is me trying to actually be kind to myself, which I’m still figuring out.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This image (Outside I used the template), but filled with my personal choice. </p><p><br></p><p>Starts with face - represents family and friends. What I care the most. Its the face, looks at things, and makes you happy or makes changes in your emotions. </p><p><br></p><p>Goes to Heart, where supports myself. Its the engine of my life, and required to live. </p><p><br></p><p>Music is my stomach. I listen to it when I am hungry or need to focus. Not that important, but needs it to survive. Thus, its the stomach. </p><p><br></p><p>Below that is shopping and Gym. Its what my joy are, but not that crucial like my leg. Its somewhere in the middle. </p><p><br></p><p>Lastly, its the leg. This is what supports myself, my financial condition, life. Currently with Internship, this is whats mostly important for me. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I saw in video that some people had different poses, I thought that was fun so I did a pose too, didn’t know if that was important to the experiment or not. I like pink, it’s my favourite colour so I thought it would suit me. I see my parents in a more supportive role, and I think of them most often so they are the first that came to mind. I know my mom’s favourite colour is blue, and my dad likes blue. They are my first and strongest safety net, but I feel like I rely on them for separate things as they support me differently so I placed them in different places. I added two of my closest friends and assigned yellow and teal. My diamond friend’s favourite colour is yellow, following the favourite colour theme. She’s my oldest friend and probably knows me the best besides my parents. My rectangle friend’s favourite colour is actually pink, but this is about me and since they are close to me I wanted to make them a clear separate colour. She is truly the closest friend I’ve made in a long long time. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The colours I have chosen for my art therapy represents the different aspects of my life. Goals and aspirations are green, as it signifies growth and progress. Yellow is music, as the colour reminds me of the warmth of a sun; soothing and fulfilling the heart. Red signifies boldness and passion to me, and so I represented the colour as confidence. Family and friends are placed as a pink heart, representing the unwavering love and devotion I have towards them. Lastly, food and sleep are a purple/lavender colour, as it reminds me of relaxation and stress-relief, which I associate with the aspect. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my drawing, I chose what is central to who I am. The green at my feet grounds me to the earth and nature. The pink stretches out to my relations and friendships.  Purple represents what I want out of life, my values, my goals, and my spirituality. Orange is my deep love for home and where I come from. And of course, at the center is my deep love for my family. I believe that all of these things comprise who I am and what I value. The gaps represent all the other little things in my life. My love for movies, music, art, and all the memories and experiences that make me who I am.</p>]]></description>

In my head, I think about my beautiful dog and how happy he makes me, and I also have my hobbies that bring me joy, such as Pilates and cafe hopping. I put my friends and family in yellow in my chest closest to my heart, because they fulfill me. Then for purple, it represents the growth that I’ve had in myself as a person, and I hope it will grow even bigger. I chose green to represent my ambition in my career and life.</p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my image, I used five main colours to express myself. At the centre of my chest is a red heart, symbolizing the people and connections that I care deeply about—my close friends and family. They remind me of what really matters and help me stay grounded when life feels overwhelming.</p><p><br/></p><p>Surrounding that heart, the purple represents my emotional state, complex, layered, and constantly shifting. It blends passion and thoughtfulness, showing how I’m trying to stay steady while processing a lot internally.&nbsp;</p><p><br/></p><p>The orange that moves through my arms and hands represents action and responsibility. It reflects the energy I’m putting into the things I care about such as school, work, hobbies, but also the pressure that comes with it.</p><p><br/></p><p>My head is filled with turquoise and marked with lightning bolts and scribbles to show the stress and overthinking that’s been taking up space lately. It’s hard to quiet my mind, and that tension often overshadows other parts of me.</p><p><br/></p><p>Finally, the teal and grey shades fading down into my legs and feet reflects uncertainty or ambiguity about the future, but also a neutral grounding point for potential movement forward. Even when things feel chaotic, I’m doing my best to stay grounded and remind myself that I’m still moving forward, step by step.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The pink heart represents my friends and family, the most important aspects of my life - these are the people that keep me going everyday, therefore I keep them close to my heart. The blue shows my focus on academics, as a very academically-driven person who is constantly trying my best to achieve growth within the realm of school. Green outlines exercise and taking care of my body, releasing stress through physical mechanisms. Purple, as seen at the bottom of my head, represents happiness and joy - as I am always brainstorming  ways to incorporate things I love and enjoy throughout my everyday routine to keep me sane. My legs, in orange, represent ambitions, as my legs can take me far in life! Yellow flows through my arms, as I am a huge coffee lover and can always be found with a coffee in my hands. Music is a huge destressing method for me, and work/volunteering is always something that arises into my head, no matter what time of the year, however, I try not to let it occupy too much space in my mind! </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This drawing reflects the many facets of my personality. The yellow outline represents how I want to be seen by others. I hope to come across as someone who is fun, yet grounded when it matters most. At the red center are the people I care about deeply, with a special heart dedicated to my dog Bruno, who I miss immensely. Surrounding that, the orange layer symbolizes the goals that motivate me each day and give me a sense of purpose. The green arms are a reminder to prioritize my health and well-being, while the purple head represents academics and the subjects that genuinely excite and inspire me. Finally, the blue at the bottom stands for stress and anxiety. I placed it there because I often feel it weighs me down and slows my momentum in daily life.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In this image, I chose 4 colors to represent what has been on my mind lately, and to represent what colors I associate with my methods of dealing with stress. I included the explanations of each color and it's reference to each section of the electronic drawing, but I will repeat them here: </p><p><br/></p><p>My head is brown, representing how my brain is constantly processing technical work, co-op goals, and upcoming responsibilities. It is both my strength and my stressor. </p><p><br/></p><p>My chest and core is blue, symbolizing the moments of peace I get from solo bike rides or hikes through the forest. It’s where I feel most aligned and balanced.</p><p><br/></p><p>yellow surrounds my heart because the people I care about, such as my close friends and family, give me warmth, joy, and emotional resilience.</p><p><br/></p><p>I placed green on my arms and legs to represent how nature, through hiking, camping, and biking, grounds and energizes me physically and mentally. These activities are my go-to forms of self-care and are tightly tied to my sense of freedom and movement.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My friends and family are represented in green and surround me because they are my support system. The purple represents school which is always on the back of my mind, and the yellow represents mental health which I prioritize especially during school. Physical health is represented in the centre as it is important to keep my body strong and healthy. Lastly, the beige which fills my body is faith and religion which gives me fulfillment and purpose. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My body map shows 6 zones which include friends/family, gratitude, self doubt, health, music and growth. At my core I most value the relationships in my life as they are my support system and my life is much better with them in it. In my head is gratitude, which I try to practice everyday and growth with music in the ears. Music radiates throughout the body because it evokes emotion. My main goals in life is to always be evolving and becoming better. With that comes a little bit of self doubt which orange in the corner of my head. Growth, health and gratitude is also in my body as I am grateful for my mobility and my health is important to me. </p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In art therapy, I begin by painting the smaller outline of a person with red dye, which represents my current state. I am now completely relaxed and not putting big pressure on myself to accomplish ambitious goals. The outermost layer of pink in the middle circle represents my desires, and when desires are lowered, I am easily satisfied. The inner green layer represents a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, and food. The orange layer represents my mood and the positive attitude I have every day. The blue layer represents nature, and exploring more of it would be very beneficial to my mood. The center is back to red, which also represents my most important family members and their place in my heart.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In this project, I drew a circle in the centre to represent myself. As instructed in the video, I listed the things in my life that bring me joy: family, friends, hobbies, and growth. These are fundamental elements of my identity. The pink represents my family, which I placed surrounding my heart and in my head. This symbolizes my emotional and mental connection with my family, as they are incredibly important to me and shape my values and guide my behaviour. Purple represents my friends, who also occupy my headspace. I had also placed the purple around my abdomen, as I associate my friends with laughter and joy. The blue represents my hobbies. I placed this colour around the rest of my body as my hobbies are a form of personal expression, and these activities help define who I am. Lastly, I used light yellow to represent my mental state and personal growth. These are areas in my life that I want to focus on and work towards strengthening to improve my wellbeing.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My friends and family are in the core of my body because they made me who I am. The green represents school which is always on my mind. Yellow represents mental health which I focus more on combined with school. Cyan located at my hands represents my physical health as it is important to get my body strong. Black is  located at my lower part of the body represents food and sleep as they are the only thing that keeps me moving each day.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My drawing represents the aspects of life that are most meaningful to me. In pink, in the heart, are my parents, they have raised me to be a strong, independent woman, and I am forever grateful for them. Surrounding the heart in purple and yellow are my friends and family. I believe we are all shaped by who we surround ourselves with, and they are my key support system. Close to this, in dark blue, is my comfort in home-cooked meals. I see eating around the table with your community as extremely important for mental health, and cooking is a great way to foster this connection. In green is my love for the outdoors, nature is where I feel most at peace and is my safe place. In light blue is my ambition to stay active, which is a great coping mechanism that helps me manage stress. Finally, in orange, is my ambition for education. My goal in life is to do research and gain as much knowledge as possible in order to help the people in my community through the creation of biomedical devices.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>During this art therapy exercise, I focused on the elements of my life that are true to who I am as a person. The pale yellow colour surrounds my entire body, as health&nbsp; is something that requires my full attention; no part of my health should go undermined because it can affect my life in significant ways. At the core of my being is my family, the people I surround myself with the most, and who encourage me to be the truest form of myself. Surrounding that are my friends, the people who support me, especially when I cannot be with my family physically. My head and mind are represented by blue for curiosity — it represents a growing desire to becoming more knowledgeable, whether that is academically speaking, and/or emotional speaking. The green at the base of my sketch shows my connection to nature, which is something I’ve grown stronger with living in Canada. Finally, the light pink around my hands and arms represents the vessels of my sense of creativity.&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>My body map represents what emotions/traits each part of my body holds. My heart, while compassionate and kind, is wrapped in hurt, and my belly is full of anxiety. Both are surrounded by armour in self-protection. My legs are filled with uncertainty and hesitance as they hold me up and keep me going. My arms contain my desire for connection and support, both for myself and for others. My head is filled with curiosity and the ability for growth in attaining new knowledge, but it is hidden beneath an exterior of anguish and distress. The lower part of my face, containing my mouth and cheeks, as well as my neck, is where my laughter and positivity are able to shine through and allow me to breathe, leaving me knowing that everything will be okay and that there is a bright future ahead.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I chose to represent my family and friends with orange as they provide me with a sense of warmth through their support for me. This colour is shown in the center of the figure as they are central to my life and guide who I am. Greyish purple represents school, and this is shown in the head of the figure as I often overthink and stress over school and my academic future. Nature and music are shown throughout my body as they give me purpose and are two aspects of life I care about deeply and rely on for my well being. The yellow outline represents my kindness and positivity. This is how I hope to be perceived by others.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Surrounding my body is red which represents how much the relationships in my life matter to me. From friends, family and lover, I want them to know how important they are in shaping who I am. Green on my arms and legs represent my desire to be physically active as I value the positive benefits of good health. On my head I have blue, which is my constant mental battle in forming better habits, and also purple which is constantly trying to be better than I was before. Deep inside me, I value my education as it will get me where I want to be in life. </p>]]></description>

Since I am in forestry I put nature and school in my mind since the two intertwine quite often.</p><p>The brown colour is representitive of exercise which is why it is on the arms and core/stomach region of the body.</p><p>Lasty is yellow which represents sleep which is an important resource to me.</p>]]></description>

My head, highlighted in green, is the part that’s focused on long term goals like having a good future, and being healthy.

My arms, highlighted in yellow, represent my work. Work includes both academics, as well as my job because i use my hands to get tasks done.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>For my image, I have used blue and green shades mostly throughout to create a sense of calm &amp; space, reflecting the decluttered or simple state of mind I aim to maintain. Towards the lower end, there's two battles being fought: one in the form of physical workout and wanting to walk more and be out there, and on the other there is always a flow of stress arising from the bottom and then flowing into the rest of my space. In the middle there is FOOD, which has often been the solution to my dilemma, an attempt to bridge the gap when movement alone can't settle that inner tension. At the core, in red, there's my friends and family that I hold dear to me, and everything else is just always at a state of constant motion around them. </p>]]></description>
