Physical Activity - Bike Ride/Commuting

2025-05-27 22:29:31 UTC

I usually go for a couple of one-hour bike rides in the week to train my aerobic capabilities. It functions as a longer break and help me to get some fresh air outside. I find this improves my sleep quality, and I feel more positive afterwards.

Physical Activity - Running

2025-05-27 22:37:00 UTC

I chose this photo since I took it on a longer run, and I'm hoping to get back into running outside consistently -especially on the beautiful trails around campus. It helps me regulate my breathing and focus on an activity instead of my stressors.

Physical Activity- Cycling

2025-05-27 22:39:02 UTC

This is a photo from my recent cycling trip in Tuscany, Italy. Cycling is a great passion of mine, which I engage in regularly to cope with stress and improve my overall health and wellbeing. It allows me to explore beautiful landscapes, connect with nature, and feel a sense of freedom.

Physical Activity - Walking

janeszeto2021 — 2025-05-27 22:43:19 UTC

This is a photo I took on a walk in Paris. Since I am currently studying abroad, most of my physical exercise consists of long walks through the city (I average ~12000steps/day). Taking walks is also something I do in Vancouver to manage my stress and mental health

Physical Activity-Cycling

2025-05-27 23:12:21 UTC

This is a picture of me riding along the seawall in Stanley Park. Cycling is a great way to get exercise and also get in touch with nature. I really enjoy the feeling of having the wind blowing through me as I ride, and the beautiful scenery along the trail helps me relax and reduce stress.

Physical Activity – Walking & Exploring

2025-05-27 23:30:04 UTC

This photo was taken during a walk through San Francisco, where I explored the city on foot. Walking kept me active while giving me space to slow down, reflect, and enjoy the scenery. It reminded me how refreshing it is to be present and clear both body and mind.

Physical Activity - Hiking

2025-05-27 23:44:47 UTC

This is a photo of me hiking at Pacific Spirit Regional Park near UBC. Once a week, I make time for a hike. It supports my physical health by helping me meet my cardio goals. It also supports my mental health by breathing fresh air and reconnecting with nature.

Physical Activity - Walking

2025-05-28 00:10:12 UTC

I like to go for walks during the day to take a break, get fresh air, and reset my focus. This photo captures the peaceful view outside my workplace — a small but important part of my daily wellness routine.

Physical Activity - Rock Climbing

2025-05-28 01:12:22 UTC

This is a photo of me rock climbing for the first time a couple of months ago. I'm a little height-phobic, but I love the adrenaline of climbing to the top. Rock climbing also clears my mind of stress and allows me to focus only on the present. I feel more joyful and optimistic about overcoming new challenges after each session.

2025-05-28 02:39:27 UTC

This is a photo from a recent trip to Palm Springs where I went on a beautiful hike. I regularly go for hikes/walks as much as possible - whether in Vancouver or while traveling. Walks/hiking help me connect with nature, clear my head and overall improve my physical health!

Physical Activity - Walking

emilyliu163 — 2025-05-28 02:51:06 UTC

I take my dog to Pacific Spirit Park whenever I can. There are great off-leash trails and it's a nice way to get fresh air and exercise. I recommend the Salish Trail for beginners—it’s about 45 minutes round trip and good for walking, running, or biking.

2025-05-28 02:53:53 UTC

This is a photo of my partner at the bowling alley—his favorite sport. I love being by his side to support him. No matter how he does, he always comes over to hug me and give me little kisses after each turn. It’s a stress reliever for me.

Nutrition - Cooking

erober08 — 2025-05-28 02:58:38 UTC

This photo is of my favourite pasta salad. In the past couple of years I have learnt that eating "healthy" doesn't mean you have to cut out everything you love and eat bland foods. I find cooking extremely relaxing, and I love finding new ways to pack veggies into a meal! Cooking and eating healthy are two very important ways for me to cope with stress.

Physical Activity - Evening Walks

piccasol705 — 2025-05-28 03:43:47 UTC

This is a photo I took during a walk in West Vancouver. I find myself coming here a lot with friends or even alone by bike. I enjoy listening to music here by the beach especially during sunset! So far its been very helpful as an escape after working long hours staying at home.

Physical Activity-Nutrition

2025-05-28 03:50:58 UTC

This healthful lunch includes vegetables, lean meats, grains, and fresh fruit. It shows my commitment to balanced eating, concentrating on providing my body with the energy it needs while supporting my health goals. Also, when I get enough nutrition, I feel happier.

davidhsiao92 — 2025-05-28 03:57:29 UTC

This photo shows my daily running record—I've been running for at least 30 minutes every day, and today marks Day 56!

Nutrition - My Meal

2025-05-28 04:09:48 UTC

I took this photo last week. I often cook meals like this for myself because I think it’s a well-balanced meal with fish, shrimp, broccoli, and tomatoes. I also made rose tea to help boost circulation and relieve fatigue.

Healthier diet.

2025-05-28 04:14:04 UTC

As I mentioned in the self-reflection assignment, I noticed that binge eating and purging would bring damage to both my metal health and physical health. Thus, I am keeping on a healthier diet and living lifestyle. The photo attached with this post is my lunch for today, 2 eggs and seasoned beef. By keeping this diet, I have already lost 5 pounds within 1 week, which reduce pressure from being insecurity.

Physical Activity - Hot Yoga

kiannalacasse — 2025-05-28 04:38:47 UTC

This is a photo I took in my hot yoga class. The studio offers a variety of classes, from stretching/meditation types to fast-paced cardio/HIIT classes, great for people of all levels and interests. It helps me cope with anxiety, releases pent up stress, while providing a fun distraction.

Physical Activity - Aerobic exercise

cecilyy0713 — 2025-05-28 05:00:44 UTC

I go to the gym three times a week for at least 30 minutes of cardio. The elliptical is my first choice, as it helps me release stress, stay focused, and control my weight. I will use apps to track my progress every time, and this helps me stick to my routine.

Physical activity - Walking

tkim12102004 — 2025-05-28 05:20:00 UTC

This is a photo I took on campus, since I like walking around in gaps between classes. Usually taking walks gives me a fresh breath of air while allowing my to mind to wonder, letting me focus better in classes and studying afterwards.

2025-05-28 05:38:21 UTC

This photo is when I went on a walk in Loon Lake. I find walks more enjoyable if it's around nature where my surroundings are picturesque or scenic rather than walking through the city where there's traffic and construction. Scenic walks allow me to calm down from the stressors in my life.

Walking my Dog

2025-05-28 05:45:23 UTC

I walk my dog daily around the neighbourhood, but on weekends, my family and I explore new trails or lakes for longer walks. These outings are refreshing for all of us, offering a change of scenery and a chance to clear my mind and enjoy the fresh air.

Physical Activity-Walking my dog

2025-05-28 08:06:08 UTC

When I'm at home, I walk my dog everyday. We go out together for about half an hour each time, walking at a fast and slow pace, covering about 3,000 steps. And we go out twice a day, one in 6:30 a.m. and one in 5:30 p.m..

Nutrition - Breakfast

feithzxy — 2025-05-28 10:15:13 UTC

This is one of the hotel breakfasts during my internship month. I’ve been focusing on balanced nutrition by choosing light, fresh food like this day’s wonton soup, salad, and fruit. I think to start the day with a mindful meal helps me manage stress symptoms and feel more energized at work.

Physical Activity - Nutrition

2025-05-28 14:11:45 UTC

This is my work meal, for the past two year I have eaten it 2-3 time per week. I think it is a well balanced, it's some chicken, greek salad, pita bread, and feta cheese dip. Everyhting from my work is very fresh, so I always enjoy it.

Physical Activity, workout

syznl752 — 2025-05-28 15:20:13 UTC

This photo was taken at the gym where I worked out today. For me, the best form of physical activity is exercising. I have always maintained the habit of spending a certain amount of time exercising every day. I combine strength training with aerobic training to stimulate the secretion of endorphins in my brain, which helps to alleviate my daily psychological stress.

Physical Activity- Swimming

2025-05-28 15:42:18 UTC

This picture was taken at the second beach pool last summer. For me, swimming is a great way to get away from school and other stressors and to exercise my body. The reparative nature of swimming lanes helps me enter an almost meditative state that I find extremely relaxing without being boring. As most of my friends enjoy swimming as well it is also a great way for us to get together.

Physical Activity - Nature Walks

2025-05-28 17:17:34 UTC

I enjoy going on nature walks with friends to help mediate my stress. Luckily, I live close to Pacific Spirit Park, so these walks are very accessible to me, and I tend to go at least two or three times a week. This photo is from a particularly nice walk in Oregon!

Physical Activity-Running

2025-05-28 17:23:59 UTC

I like to do cardio to let out energy, stay active and relief anxiety. My favourite form of cardio is either running or spin-cycling at home, but as Summer approaches, I'd like to make an effort to run outside to get fresh air. Going outside has many positive effects for my mental wellbeing, and I'm trying to get out more this year.

Physical Activity - Walking

2025-05-28 17:38:13 UTC

I am currently working a full-time internship, and my daily commute to and from work gives me the perfect opportunity to walk 10K+ steps per day.

2025-05-28 19:13:04 UTC

I have recently started making proper lunches for myself. For the last two years, my lunch consisted of either ready made store food, or air fried food. Making full, proper lunches is not only a form of destressing for me, but also a healthy habit. Here we have a Marry me chicken, made using sun dried tomatoes!

Physical Activity – Pilates

2025-05-28 20:05:50 UTC

This photo shows me doing a gentle Pilates stretch. I come here twice a week to loosen my stiff neck and shoulders after long desk hours. Deep belly breaths help me forget stress and feel light again.

2025-05-28 20:49:27 UTC

This photo was taken during a hike. For me, hiking is one of the best forms of physical activity. I’ve always made it a habit to spend time moving every day, and hiking allows me to combine physical exertion with the mental benefits of being in nature. The steady rhythm of walking, the fresh air, and the changing scenery all help trigger the release of endorphins, which go a long way in relieving the stress I carry from daily life.

Physical Activity - GYM

siddhantsalwan2003 — 2025-05-28 21:03:18 UTC

This is my gym mirror selfie after destroying my back and biceps at Gold’s Gym. I go 5 times a week—not just for gains but for sanity. For 1.5 hours, I forget my responsibilities, taxes, and existential dread: just me, the weights, and a questionable protein shake.

Physical Activity - Running

2025-05-28 21:50:32 UTC

This is a photo of my girlfriend and I out on a run last Saturday, which we are doing now at least once a week. I’ve realized that running outside allows me to feel more connected in nature while exercising which helps to clear my mind.

Physical Activity - Walk to the beach

jairaajsarnaapps — 2025-05-28 22:15:04 UTC

This picture was taken at Kitsilano Beach, where I had gone for a walk recently. I have seen that one thing that helps me be on the move is to take time out and reconnect with nature. I usually tend to go to gardens and parks, though this time I wanted to try something different and go to the nearby beach. I found it quite a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

physical activity - a walk and read in the park

2025-05-28 23:45:45 UTC

our group at yesterday's class discussed simple, every-day physical exercise, so I've been taking walks to nearby parks, bringing a book with me. going on walks with no goal can be difficult—this way, I can get some exercise done while knocking out some peaceful reading time for my well-being.

Physical Activity- walking

2025-05-29 00:29:05 UTC

Physical Activity - Hiking

2025-05-29 00:33:56 UTC

This is a photo of my friend and I after a hike recently. Hiking is something that I really enjoy, and something that I aim to do frequently. I particularly enjoy hiking when I’m able to do it with friends and to experience the beautiful views with them afterward. I also find that hiking is a great de-stressor for me as well, always calming me down.

Nutrition

ytang41007 — 2025-05-29 00:50:31 UTC

Nutritional Strategy—Hello everyone, I would like to share my nutritional strategy. Here’s my lunch for yesterday. There are fresh shrimp with a tender taste and braised pork belly beside it. There‘s also a bowl of tomato and egg soup. I think both shrimp and eggs contain a lot of protein, and tomatoes contain vitamin C. My lunch usually includes vegetables, meat and soup. Normally I eat rice for meals, sometimes there are also noodles and dumplings. For meat, whether it's chicken, beef or pork, I always feel more energetic after eating them.

Nutrition - Daily Veggies

2025-05-29 01:08:50 UTC

To achieve my health goal, I wanted to start off with a small but consistent habit. I noticed that a lot of my diet included protein, dairy and occasional carbs, but lacked a lot of the fruit and vegetables I need. This prompted the goal to add one portion of one type of vegetable or fruit. Today happened to be a salad day! I hope that by adding this to my meals, I’ll gain more energy and have a balanced source of nutrition.

Physical Activity—Gym

bellawang111 — 2025-05-29 01:16:13 UTC

Nutrition - Breakfast

2025-05-29 01:17:55 UTC

A high-protein breakfast like this, with eggs, sautéed veggies, sausage, and toast, keeps me grounded during hectic weeks. It’s my way of fuelling focus and managing stress with intention. Starting my day with balance helps me feel more in control, no matter what’s on my schedule.

Physical Activity - Walking

2025-05-29 02:41:02 UTC

Walking allows me to fully disconnect from any stressful situations, and become present in the moment again. I love going on walks more in the winter, but they help me destress regardless of the season. I use my phone or smartwatch to track my steps, and sometimes I like to keep up with challenges regarding how many steps I complete in the day.

Physical Activity - Hiking

2025-05-29 03:28:52 UTC

This is a photo taken after a hike near Capilano River. I am quite excited to be able to go on more hikes in the coming weeks as the weather is getting warmer! Hiking and going on walks (even just around campus) helps me to clear my mind and is a way for me to de-stress after a particularly busy day. Moving my body (especially in nature) grounds me and allows me to get off my phone/laptop and feel more present as well.

Physical Activity - Walking

rleagustin — 2025-05-29 03:33:33 UTC

This is a photo of my sister, cousin, and I going on a walk/run on a bridge near my house. I really enjoy doing physical activity with others, as I find it makes it more enjoyable, and we’re also able to encourage each other. Going on walks is also a really convenient and accessible way to exercise in my neighbourhood, since there are a lot of nearby trails.

Physical Activity-Golf

yetingfei2003 — 2025-05-29 05:11:06 UTC

Physical Activity-Playing badminton

2025-05-29 15:48:55 UTC

This photo is of badminton, which I believe is the best way to relieve my stress. It was taken when I won second place in a badminton competition. I had never played badminton before coming to UBC in 2022, but after starting university, I discovered that playing badminton not only helps relieve the stress of studying but also eases the pressure of not being able to socialize with new friends when I first arrived at UBC.

Physical Activity-Tennis

2025-05-30 00:05:52 UTC

This is the photo I took when I was playing tennis. My classmate is very good at playing tennis, so i'm learning tennis from him. I play tennis twice or swim twice a week. I think playing tennis can release my stress and make me feel happy.

Physical Activity Walking

emilysenger15 — 2026-05-27 18:47:31 UTC

I love to go on walks, especially when the weather gets nice. There is always something going on downtown in the summer so I try to get my fresh air and steps in by walking around there and doing some window shopping. I also like to get a smoothie after my walk as a healthier treat.

Physical Activity - Gym

2026-05-27 18:58:50 UTC

This is a photo from the UBC gym. I usually go everyday. This day specifically I was training legs. I enjoy weight training and I think it is a great way to escape from everything else and allow myself to have time to think about self improvement. Additionally, after I go to the gym I always feel more motivated to do the rest of my tasks on a given day.

Physical Activity - Hiking

2026-05-27 19:01:16 UTC

This is the end of the deep cove hike. It is one of my favourite hikes because the trail is relatively easy so I find it quite calming when I hike it as I reconnect with nature. I always find myself feeling much lighter afterwards and falling asleep immediately in the evening.

Nutrition - Orange Juice

2026-05-27 19:08:27 UTC

This is nutrition facts of orange juice. When I want to drink orange juice, I choose the 50 version. It contains half of calories and sugars compared to regular one. I think it is healthier when consuming less sugars and calories from a beverage.

This is a photo I took of the seawall and I chose to come here because during this time I was overwhelmed with studying. I decided had to take a little break to focus on something else. After the walk, I could think with a clear mind and my body felt good knowing a got some kind of exercise in.

Physical Activity - Runs

2026-05-27 23:23:36 UTC

Physical Activity - After dinner walks

2026-05-27 23:35:17 UTC

This is a photo of me on a walk after having dinner with my family near the River District. Recently, I've been encouraging my family to do more of these to incorporate more exercise into our daily routine, and it has benefited us so far, especially with digestion. Overall, I feel great, and it's good to know I'm helping my family stay healthy, too.

Nature walks

2026-05-27 23:42:02 UTC

This is a photo I took while out on a nature walk. I try getting a walk in nature every week, and particularly enjoy walking near trees or waters. The physical movement of walking itself reduces my perception of stress, while the beauty of my surroundings fills me with positive emotions like gratitude or awe.

2026-05-28 01:52:44 UTC

2026-05-28 02:04:38 UTC

I chose this picture because it was a really beautiful day, and it’s something you can really only take in when going on runs, walks or on a bike ride.

Nutrition - eating more plant-based

2026-05-28 02:58:53 UTC

In the last few years I have noticed immediate stomach pain and headaches whenever I make poor eating choices. I've been trying to make a conscious effort to eat less junk and more plants, and enjoy it too! These are some chickpeas I cooked outside that I added to pita wraps. I've also been cutting meat products from my diet, so finding good recipes with plant protein has been great.

zhashunye — 2026-05-28 03:28:26 UTC

This bowl of noodles represents comfort and balance in my diet. Including vegetables and protein in my meals helps me stay physically healthy and mentally focused during busy academic weeks. During stressful periods, cooking a nutritious bowl of noodles reminds me to take care of my health and also helping relieve my stress.

Nutrition - Water

2026-05-28 04:18:00 UTC

Physical Activity + Nutrition- A diverse approach

2026-05-28 05:20:43 UTC

2026-05-28 05:30:15 UTC

2026-05-28 06:16:20 UTC

Physical Activity - Cycling

2026-05-28 13:57:51 UTC

Physical Activity - Rowing

2026-05-28 16:06:54 UTC

This is a photo of me rowing, a sport I’ve done for the past 8 years. Rowing helps me stay physically active while giving me time away from daily responsibilities and stress.

2026-05-28 19:15:52 UTC

Going to the gym helps me reduce stress and gives me a stronger sense of control over myself. However, when I feel too stressed, I sometimes overexercise, which can make me worse instead.

aaroncui17 — 2026-05-28 20:10:51 UTC

I love going down to the beach during sunsets. It's a great way to get moving and the fresh air and the beautiful views help me clear my mind after a stressful day. It's my favourite way to reset.

When I feel stressed, I like playing golf with my friends. I have heard that sunshine has many benefits and can help reduce stress. Golf also gives me time to talk and laugh with my friends, which makes me feel relaxed. Besides, golf is a good exercise, so I feel healthier and happier after playing.

This is a photo I took during a 5 km run at the Cowichan Sportsplex track. Running helps me cope with stress and keep me fit.

Physical Activity - Kayaking

Since the summer season is upon us, I wanted to take this opportunity to start kayaking again as it is very much a seasonal activity. This photo was taken today on Seattle's South Lake Union. Funnily enough, the boat pictured is Mark Zuckerberg's mega yacht. I've attached the local news article as it's been the talk of the town here. Myself and many others were circling around the boat to get a glimpse.

Nutritional Strategy - Simplicity and Yummy

2026-05-29 20:48:06 UTC

This has been my most recent favorite meal - Hot Honey Bowl. Its just ground beef, avocade, sweet potato, cottage cheese and hot honey. It blew up on TikTok a little while ago and once I tried it, I was hooked. It's super easy to make, very healthy and honestly tastes good. I use social media a lot to find good recipes that are both healthy and simple to make and I have found some good stuff. I know I will probably get sick of this meal eventually but for now, I eat it everyday lol!

Nutrition - Trying to eat a balanced meal

2026-05-31 03:05:26 UTC

I often feel too lazy to cook and end up eating imbalanced meals (like bags of chips and anything else that’s easy to grab). I’m trying to make an effort to incorporate more vegetables and protein. Fermented foods also help my gut!
