    Go on walks outdoors with friends or join an exercise class with friends.  Plan a quarterly hike at a new trail each quarter so that you can see your friends and at the same get some exercise and nature in.  My friends and I do this in Door County - but only once a year.  There are many outdoor parks and trails to explore.

    This was easy for me.  I love to read and find that screen time cuts into my reading time- so I was extra diligent that I turn off the TV or phone 15-30 minutes earlier so that I can get some reading in before I go to bed. This is something that I plan to keep up long term and increase the reading time day by day.

    By being thankful for others and appreciating their impact in your life, it helps you to be happier and that energy helps you in turn be a blessing to others.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Eat Mindfully
    Mindful eating is healthier for us than eating with distractions. How do your eating experiences differ when practicing mindfulness?

    I find that I appreciate the food more- taste and quality and it is more relaxing rather than trying to do cross off another task on the list, or not thinking about the fact that I am eating as well.
