Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minute(s) each day.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

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

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will spend 15 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.

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

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

I will journal each day about my experiences in nature.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

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