REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth Exercise DailyHow can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?
Ana Gaby Armendariz 11/03/2018 10:56 AMAlgo que hice en semestres pasados era invitar a mis amigas al gym o salir a correr. Y en verano invité a mi hermana a inscribirse a un gym conmigo y así teníamos una actividad que hacíamos todos los días juntas. -

REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable MugMaybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?
Ana Gaby Armendariz 10/29/2018 9:44 PMMe di cuenta que compraba mínimo 5 vasos de café a la semana y a largo plazo serían demasiados; aparte también noté a gente comprando su café y pidiendo que les sirvieran en vasos reusables. Por lo tanto me uní a esta acción y empecé a hacer lo mismo. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use Reusable BagsWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?
Ana Gaby Armendariz 10/28/2018 9:30 PMJusto hoy que hice mi despensa no tenía más que una bolsa reusable conmigo y no todo cabía en ella entonces lo que hice fue cargar en mis manos 3 cosas más y no acepté la bolsa de plástico que me ofrecieron. -
