My Project
At my school, I serve as both a full-time Advanced English and Language Arts teacher and a Projects teacher. My project focuses on Olakino, a Hawaiian word meaning "health and wellness." Throughout this project, my students and I have explored various aspects of well-being, from modern wellness trends to the significance of Canoe Plants—brought to the islands by Kanaka Maoli before colonization.
I’m eager to take our exploration of wellness to the next level by incorporating sound therapy.
Sound bowls have been scientifically proven to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps regulate heart rate and breathing. As rhythmic vibrations wash over the body, they can trigger the release of feel-good chemicals, reduce pain signals, and promote relaxation, balance, and overall well-being. This experience will allow students to understand how different sounds influence the body’s physiological and emotional states.
Beyond its educational value, this will be a unique and enjoyable hands-on experience that deepens students' connection to health and wellness in an engaging way.
