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

    I don't have my phone at all when I eat because I find it a little rood when there are people you can talk to right next to you or across from you.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity De-Clutter My Home or Dorm Room
    How can you prevent yourself from accumulating more unnecessary things in the future?

    Making sure everything is organized so I know where it is and don't have to search for it.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Limit Social Media
    Social media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also create echo chambers and take more time than we realize or intend to give. After completing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?

    I feel a little bit better because that is one of the only things I do on my phone. So leaving my phone just made it better for my head.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nature Go for a Daily Walk
    How do you experience your neighborhood or city differently when walking instead of driving?

    When walking you see another side of everything because you can actually take a breath and look at the nature and buildings around you.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Choose Organic Ingredients
    Many people say that “you can’t feed the world with just organic food.” How would you respond to that statement?

    Well now more brands are starting to make organic options which became even easier, but my family shops at The Food Coop and also Target because they have organic opitons.

    My mom locks me out of the house for 1 hour so we actually walk the dog.

    I chose eating organic food because that is the only thing I eat.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use Reusable Bags
    What 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?

    I used those two bags when II went to Barnes and Nobles to buy some new books.
