I will spend 10 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.

I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 30 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 replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 10 conversations.

I will volunteer 5 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

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