    I love reading other people discussions posts and reflection questions! It is a great way to see other perspectives of the other challenges
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Community Engage In Active Listening
    What was it like to actively listen to someone? How did both people and the conversation(s) benefit from active listening?

    Jamie Segrini's avatar

    Being there for someone to simply just listen can benefit both sides, being able to hear someones point of view broadens your own mindsets, while allowing the other person to release something they've kept in their mind. This is also important to practice in small arguments.

    My favorite part about eco challenge is the check-ins, I used to be aware of little things such as a reusable water bottle, but sometimes I would forget, now I have it with me everywhere I go to limit the temptation of just buying a plastic one.

    New habits that have been part of my routine include using bike share, setting down my phone, being anal ab0ut turning off water while brushing my teeth and turning off lights while not in the room
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Eat Mindfully
    Mindful eating is healthier for us than eating with distractions. How do your eating experiences differ when practicing mindfulness?

    Simply sitting down and enjoying a meal to yourself can let your mind open and create a sense of relaxation, at first, it was weird, using my phone when I get lunch by myself, or even with people has been so common, but putting, and leaving it down is a mind opening experience. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Needs Vs. Wants
    How is creativity a necessary ingredient for practicing simplicity?

    Jamie Segrini's avatar
    Jamie Segrini 4/19/2022 12:22 AM
    Using creativity is very important, finding ways to reuse items for example, or in the case or buying using needs or wants, using creativity to imagine if you need something, or is their something you already have that could replace this item. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION

    By doing this challenge, I set my phone down while doing things I normally find myself picking up my phone as a distraction. By doing this I found myself able to focus on what I'm doing, and also appreciate it more .
