Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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

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

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

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

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
