On 27 October 2022, SEGi College Sarawak welcomed two wealth planners from Prudential Malaysia, for a talk entitled Emotional Management organised by the Programme Leader for the Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences.
The students who joined the session were from the Certificate in Science, the Diploma in Healthcare, and the Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology programmes.
Anthea Thomas and Lianny Ateng spoke about the structures and functions of the brain, the importance of emotions and how to manage them, and how to identify the different characteristics of human behaviour by way emotions are expressed.
Prompted by the speakers, some of the students admitted to being stressed out by the happenings in their lives. The speakers introduced them to several methods of managing stress, including box-breathing exercises, sensory grounding, and the emotion-stash journal.
A short quiz followed for the students to recall what they had learned from the session, and afterwards, the Programme Leader presented souvenirs to both speakers as a token of appreciation.
