I will replace 15 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, or practicing gratitude for nature.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily breaks during work days to practice work-life balance.

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.

I will spend 10 minutes each day practicing mindfulness.

Each day, I will track my purchases to identify my spending habits. This will allow me to see what purchases can be reduced.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will become a savvy produce shopper when buying organic and non-organic items.

I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.
