I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will reduce the amount of unwanted mail I receive (catalogs, phone books, etc.).

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day.

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

I will replace 5 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will create a rain garden or bioswale, or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.
