  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Eat Mindfully
    Mindful eating is healthier for us than eating with distractions. How do your eating experiences differ when practicing mindfulness?

    when eating not being distracted its been making me very peaceful and have allowed me to enjoy my foods and focus on what I'm eating rather than shoving it down my throat.

    How is electricity generated where you live? How does it impact the environment, animals, and humans?

    mohamad basmeh's avatar
    mohamad basmeh 2/01/2022 7:15 PM
    the dams are ways that electricity are generated.  it has been making bills very cheap because all the electricity the dams provide has made it very simple to find clean water and allows humans to always have clean water.

    How do you practice self care?

    mohamad basmeh 1/24/2022 9:02 AM
    Ways I practice self care is watching what I eat but mostly going outside and exercising because that’s one way that I believe will keep you up and going . Another self care is brushing my teeth and cleaning my face to make sure I’m staying hygiene and clean

    So far I think I’m doing pretty good because I’m seeing a lot of changes in my health and my surroundings to make it a better place 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Water 5-Minute Showers
    Name some of the human activities impacting the health of water systems, both locally (your watershed) and globally (freshwater and oceans). What can you do to improve the health of water systems?

    mohamad basmeh's avatar
    mohamad basmeh 1/23/2022 10:35 AM
    things people can do locally is not just taking sips out of water bottles and leaving the rest go to waste and throwing it . I think if you leave a water bottle you should at least dumb it out on plants or put it out for animals to drink so it doesn't goto waste. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION

    How does/can practicing gratitude keep you centered and motivated to work for a better world?

    staying focus and working on yourself and reflecting what you're doing good in life will help you feel like you are accomplishing something in the world and it keeps you motivated to keep going forward. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Community Meet My Neighbors
    In what ways can you create more real and meaningful interactions with friends — or strangers — each week?

    mohamad basmeh's avatar
    mohamad basmeh 1/23/2022 10:29 AM
    ways that I create more friends are by going to there house because if we go somewhere outside, you tend to meet others and forget to have some alone time with the other person your trying to meet. so I prefer going to there house getting to know more of the things they have around there house because those items explain a lot about them.
