REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Explore My Area

How can spending more time outdoors enhance your sense of place?

Jade Harvey 10/22/2018 2:27 PM

Being outdoors gives me a sense of peace and allows me to think more deeply about really just everything. It also puts things into perspective for me and I think about how small I am compared to this vast world! But also that what I (humans) even though we are small but MANY, we can make a huge impact on this world. Both positively and negatively.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Energy Choose Clean/Renewable Energy

How might you be able to get others involved in advocating for the shift to clean energy?

Jade Harvey 10/18/2018 12:12 PM

To get others interested in shifting to clean energy I feel that I can be an advocate to start. One way I can do this is by simply reminding them that they can save money by switching out their current light bulbs with LED light bulbs, or even adjusting the thermostat up 1-2 degrees in the winter and down 1-2 degrees in the summer when using the air conditioner.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Simplicity Track my Purchases

What have you noticed about your purchases? Where are you inclined to make shifts, if any?

Jade Harvey 10/18/2018 11:43 AM

I end up spending more money than I need to on things such as drinks or snacks from kwik trip or other gas stations and that can add up very quickly each month! I will work on bringing drinks from home and snacking on food that I already have at home as well to save some money!

REFLECTION QUESTION
Health Happiness

How does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?

Jade Harvey 10/10/2018 2:04 PM

Practicing gratitude just helps me to be more positive all around and will help me to be less stressed and focus on the good things rather than the negatives all the time! Happiness tends to rub off on others (as does negativity) so happiness is the vibe I want to give!

REFLECTION QUESTION
Health Healthy Sleep

Consider how many hours of sleep you get now. How would you like to shift your sleep patterns? What are you finding works for you to be successful in this action?

Jade Harvey 10/10/2018 2:01 PM

My main problem is that I tend to stay up later than I should to be able to get up in the morning and actually have time to get ready. Last night I was extra sleepy and not feeling well so I went to bed earlier. I still would like to turn off my light and have a night light and just read before bed to get my eyes tired rather than looking at a screen (tv or phone). Work in progress :)

What would you like to invest more time in reflecting on?

Jade Harvey 10/09/2018 8:35 AM

Lately I have been feeling very ill due to my pregnancy and it has been making it hard for me to just enjoy this very special time. I would like to spend more time reflecting on simply the positives that will come of this and how blessed I truly am to be able to bring another life into this world.
