PSY 108 Module Three Activity Template In the Module Three Activity Guidelines and Rubric, review the Prompt and Supporting Materials sections. Then answer the following questions. Complete this template by replacing the bracketed text with the relevant information. 1. Is your goal to work in a helping profession or do you work in a helping profession now? Describe why your goal profession or current profession is meaningful to you. Your response should be a minimum of 1 to 3 sentences. My objective is to pursue a career in a profession that involves helping and supporting others. My desired profession is that of a school guidance counselor, as I aspire to help and support young children. This endeavor holds significance for me as I firmly believe that children are the essence of our future, and I am deeply motivated to enhance the quality of their lives. 2. One of your programmatic course themes is self-care. Which of the strategies for self-care from the article Recognizing Compassion Fatigue in the Helping Professions are most relevant to you now as a student or working professional? Your response should be a minimum of 1 to 3 sentences. As a student at this time, the self-care techniques mentioned in the article "Recognizing Compassion Fatigue in the Helping Professions" that I find most applicable are exercising, meditating, and sweating during workdays. As a full-time student and Full- time mom, it can be difficult to devote a great deal of time to exercise. However, to relieve tension, I walk regularly during my boyfriend’s days off to de-stress. Walking provides me with the opportunity to exercise and practice self-care. 3. One of your programmatic course themes is emotional intelligence. How do you currently apply emotional intelligence skills as a student or working professional? How can it be useful for you to explore strategies for EI as this course (or the program, if you are a Psychology major) continues? Your response should be a minimum of 1 to 3 sentences. Emotional intelligence skills are something I use as a student. I practice it by ensuring timely submission of classwork and assignments with self-regulation. I also practice self- care by taking those long walks and ensuring that I am not overworking myself. Practicing mindfulness to relieve tension and stress has been of enormous help to me as a student and mom. As this course progresses, it may be beneficial for me to investigate EI strategies, as doing so will enable me to gain a deeper understanding of my own emotions, my children, and those in my future profession. 1
