Visit or Learn About a Culturally Significant Site Near Me

Sites of cultural and spiritual significance hold deep meaning for many communities, particularly Indigenous peoples. I will learn about or visit a site near me that is significant to the history, culture, or environment of the area.

    Serving platter and planter to start seeds. All of these items were recycled items I had at home. No need to spend money on something I could use.

    Exercise including stretching is good. Helps with overall wellbeing. I don't push it, but I feel so much better. "Me taking care of Me"

    Per my Apple Watch I'm averaging 45 minutes more of sleep compared to March 2025.
    I will increase my sleep level since I has noticed: More energy, clearer thoughts, less distractions and negative thoughts. I have more energy and appear to handle the daily stressors of my job a lot better

    How does eating more fruits and vegetables and less meat positively affect yourself, other people, and our planet? What fruits or vegetables did you try this week, and which was your favorite?

    This past week I had Blueberries, Cauliflower, Yams, Broccoli, Banana, Mango & Fuji Apples. The peels can be used to supplement the garden soil.
    It takes less energy and has more benefits to consume fruits and vegetables than red meat. I feel lighter and have more energy.

    Meditation should be done daily. It helps reduce stress and generates a peaceful mood and borderline bliss. Negativity and frustration fades away. I feel less "stuck"

    I get an annual physical each year. Yes, it helps keep track of my personal health goal and it ensure I'm able to actively enjoy time with family and friends.

    It's been a bit. I signed up late for the 2025 Eco Challenge. I told myself I didn't have time and practice some of the tips I have learned from prior Eco Challenges. I discovered I miss the challenge of learning and continue to grow.
