  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Health
    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?

    Getting to bed earlier is key to me getting more sleep each night, especially during the work week. I have been working on starting my wind-down routine earlier, such as making my lunch, instead of trying to squeeze in another task.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature
    Amongst the motivations for foraging are: a source of food; means of income; connecting with nature; cultural tradition; or transmitting "local ecological knowledge, and a means for stewarding local and native plant populations" (McLain et al. 2012, 13). Which of these would be your chief motivation and why?

    Foraging for food would be a very unique way to connect with nature. It was very interesting to use the Falling Fruit website to see how much is tracked and what is around you.

    I play soccer with my kids on the weekend, family time & exercise!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity
    Fresh 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?
