This issue showcases contemporary innovations in education, midwifery, and counseling. Studies span diverse topics, including the effects of dark chocolate and dragon fruit juice therapy, educational interventions like baby swim therapy, and career guidance based on Holland’s typology. Counseling-focused articles address student well-being and academic performance through Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), cognitive restructuring, and reinforcement-based counseling. Additional research examines counselor-teacher relationships and the romantic attitudes of Filipino young adults. Together, these articles offer practical, research-based solutions to current challenges in education and health, providing valuable insights for educators, counselors, and researchers. The multidisciplinary approach underscores the journal’s commitment to addressing psychological, educational, and health needs, especially among youth and students.
