In front of thousands, Registered Psychologist Michael Jimenez enumerated the components of Mental Health : (1) Purpose, (2) Positive, (3) Productivity and (4) Resilience.
He explained how the Filipino culture adopts the value of resilience - despite the raging storms, we as a nation bend and yet hold our ground, as pliant as a bamboo.
In his talk, he related to the audience - who mostly belong to Generation Z - how different technology is today from decades ago. He discussed the challenges posed by technology on the basic needs of the individual - one of which is the lack of sleep due to preoccupation with social media and digital devices.
Accordingly, he instilled in the audience to keep themselves updated on whatever is happening around them and become individuals who will form part of the solution.
