Group one choose the topic, Paying it forward. They spoke about the impact of leadership and others. Paying it forward was explained by group one. They showed us how an act of kindness can change someones life and even your own. I try to do an act of kindness everyday. For example, I'll make sandwiches for the homeless people that live in my area. I remember around winter time last year, there was a homeless man in a wheelchair at the corner of my apartment building. I saw him and went inside my house and I gave him a hot coffee, a warm sandwich, chips, and couple of bottles of water. I also gave him a blanket with a small pillow i had in my house. After that moment I felt so much better having and being given the opportunity to help someone in need can make you feel good about yourself and it can make you feel like you've made a change to someones life. 



Group three choose the topic good eating. I really enjoyed their presentation because it gave me a new aspect on how my eating habits might need to change. They spoke about the benefits and the negatives about eating good and the effects of eating bad. They spoke about how it can effect your mental health, physical health, and how it can effect your day to day life. I thought their presentation was very informative and very persuasive. After their presentation I have changed the way I eat included the times I eat and what it is I eat. I have been making more food at home I have also been fixing my eating times. For example, I won't eat past 12:00 midnight and I can say that now because of it I don't feel as exhausted throughout the day especially when I wake up .



I was apart of group two. We choose the topic Self-care. I really liked our topic because I believe that there is so much more to self-care than just going to the spa to pamper yourself. Self-care if about your mental health, physical health, and just your overall well-being. We spoke about how we can improve ourselves by getting enough sleep, eating right, exercising, and about going to see a healthcare professional. I spoke with a doctor that I work with and gave his personal opinion about how we as people neglect going to doctors office to get a check up, a check up that should be routine for everyone. While doing our project I learned a lot. I learned the importance of keeping up with my mind and body. I found new ways to keep myself active while being able to manage my personal and professional life.

Lia's Reflection Professor sherri sinkoff 03/10/2024 SPC1017 In this blog post I will be sharing my personal opinion about our first project as a class and how I felt about the three different presentations.  The first group to present was group 1, They presented intercultural communications, I had never really learned about this topic, and it was very enlightening to see. It was crazy to see how people from the same ethnicity choose to live near each other. As an immigrant myself I didn't know this information. I have lived in the United States for almost 8 years now and have never met another Bolivian in Miami. I do love Miami, it's a very populated city, and a lot of citizens complain because of the cubans, but I think cubans are what make Miami MIAMI. I had this discussion with my parents about whether or not we should move, but I don't see myself living anywhere else, I'm a people person and a family girl, I'm all about bonds and helping the community other...

Lia's Reflection Professor sherri sinkoff 03/15/2024 SPC1017 In this blog post I will be sharing my personal opinion about our first project as a class and how I felt about the three different presentations.  First, Group 3 presentation was about Healthy eating. This is a topic that I know very well about, but struggle with, as a Hispanic most of our food isn't really considered healthy. I have just started my journey of detoxing my body for my own good. I struggle with juvenile acne, and I went to see some specialists about it. They gave me the best piece of information I could ever receive, He said "Acne reacts with what your body is eating." I learned that in order to get rid of this back acne I have to cleanse myself from inside to out. I'm not much of a fruit person as I was never taught to eat them, and I've just recently learned to eat vegetables, I now have been eating vegetables regularly for at least 2 meals of the day. I have also started to detox w...

Jade Graham SPC1017 Professor: Sinkoff   3/7/2024     Group three ’s presentation was on Good Eating. The group started off with presenting their study guide and brochure. The Study guide was based on chapters 11, 13-part 1, 13 part 2, Chapter 14, Chapter 4 and Chapter 12 .  The brochure discussed “ R eminders for Y our H ealth ” . A few things I have learned from Group three’s Brochure is that to be healthy you should limit your intake of processed foods, sugary drinks, an excessive amount of caffeine, stay hydrated, drink an adequate amount of water throughout the day to stay hydrated. C onsider incorporating herbal teas and infused water for added flavor and health benefits. R egular exercise, engage in regular physical activity, combining cardiovascular exercises, strength training, and flexibility exercises. I also learned that physical health is just as important as mental health and that you should seek counseling if needed. B eing in na...
