I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 60 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will spend at least 30 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I have a love for animals. I cleanse daily and want to research how many products I use that harm animals. I would like to significantly reduce the number of products and hope to eliminate those products completely over time.
