I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my family, for 20 minute(s) each day. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community.

I will source 1 meal(s) per day from local producers.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 per day that I do this.

I will take a walk each day.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug.

I will disable screen savers and will put the computer to sleep instead, saving up to 28% more energy.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will learn about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will research toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will learn about paid leave and its impact on health and wellness at a personal and societal level and how I can help advocate for paid leave in my company and at the national level.

I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

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