Payton's actions
Health and Well-Being
Meditate
Meditation helps build resilience and clarity. I will spend 10 minutes each day to meditate or create a moment of silence each day to reflect on things important to me.
Wildlife
Donate to Support Wildlife
There are many amazing projects supporting wildlife and their habitats. I will choose a project or organization to support that helps species and habitats I care about and make a donation.
Health and Well-Being
Prioritize Getting Enough Sleep
Good sleep is essential for a healthy body and mind. I will prioritize getting 120 minutes of quality sleep each night and develop a bedtime routine that supports rest and relaxation.
Health and Well-Being
Enjoy the Outdoors for 30 Minutes
Studies have shown that when we spend consistent time in nature, our health improves, our creativity increases, and our connection to the planet gets stronger. Each day of the Ecochallenge, I will spend 30 minutes outside, then share my observations, reflections, and learnings on the feed.
Land, Water, and Air
Save Water When Washing Dishes
Dishwashers can save water — if used wisely. I will only run the dishwasher when it’s full and skip the pre-rinse to reduce water and energy use. If I don't have a dishwasher, I will turn off the tap as often as possible while washing dishes.
Health and Well-Being
Exercise Daily
Daily movement supports our physical and mental health. I will spend 60 minutes each day exercising in a way that feels good to me, such as walking, running, stretching, or dancing.

REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth and Well-BeingWhat did you notice about your thoughts or emotions during or after meditation? Did you find it easy or challenging to meditate?
Payton Seefeldt 4/17/2025 9:48 AMUsually before meditating I'm stressed out or overwhelmed and that's why I decide to meditate that time during that day, and after I'm feeling more calm and chilled out which is kind of like a magic trick because I've had trouble calming myself down when I'm overwhelmed my whole life. Therefore, I find it easy to meditate because I know I will feel better afterwards. -
Payton Seefeldt 4/17/2025 9:42 AMI joined this challenge because it was mandatory for a class, but I ended up really liking it and thought it helped me with a lot of different things. I've been trying to sleep more, which has been going decent, but the biggest thing that has helped me is meditation and exercise. I've been able to stay consistent with those because I can see the benefits in my life and mental health.-

I have actually really enjoyed it as well. I chose exercise as one of my actions as well. I find myself making a habit out of it and automatically grabbing my dog and going for a walk as soon as I get home from work. It feels great to get outside, moving around, and clearing my head.
