REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Go for a Daily WalkFresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?
Emiliya Kaloferova 10/09/2018 12:17 AMNow that I always walk from Provenca station to my home, I'm enjoying discovering small local shops in Eixample area. I found a bulk shop to refill on beans, pasta, nuts and dried fruit, as well as a milk-specialized store that sells fresh local cheese, packaging free. Amazing options exist out there and it feels great to support local small business instead of big supermarkets. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth Audit Toxic Cleaning Products in my HomeTo what extent do you believe that environmental factors contribute to your own health or issues with health?
Emiliya Kaloferova 10/09/2018 12:14 AMI definitely feel my allergies flaring up when I clean with bleach. I'm saving old detergent bottles to go to YES FUTURE plastic-free organic shop to refill with more natural cleaning supplies -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable Water BottleWhile water bottles serve an important role in places for health and safety, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. Can you identify the barriers in making this a new habit? How can you set yourself up for success in making this a permanent change?
Emiliya Kaloferova 10/09/2018 12:13 AMI already use a water bottle, but I'm researching plastic-free water filtration options with bamboo charcoal
