Amber DeWees

I will spend quality time with family and friends by playing low-tech game(s) and/or through the spirit of imagination.

Both systemic and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will begin, or continue, on the journey of forgiving myself and/or other(s). I may do this through journaling, meditation, prayer, and/or talking with a licensed healthcare professional.

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

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will replace 25 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

I will spend 60 minute(s) per day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and my natural surroundings.

I will spend 60 minutes researching the impact of old harmful refrigerants on our environment.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those around the world who produce my food in order to make better choices when I shop.
