    Fruits and vegetables without the plastic packaging
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Reduce Animal Products
    Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our planet and other people?

    The cost of producing meat products is high, compared to having a plant-based diet from ingredients you can grow from your yard yourself. Eating more meat affects the planet because the increasing demand will ask for more farmland and biodiversity is affected. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Community Engage In Active Listening
    What was it like to actively listen to someone? How did both people and the conversation(s) benefit from active listening?

    I've been practicing active listening for many years; and this is mostly because I don't like talking about myself and I prefer listening. Active listening helps you increase your knowledge of various topics, builds trust, or identify and solve some problems. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Go for a Daily Walk Outside
    Fresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?

    Taking a walk each day reduces my anxiety level; it always helps to get some air when you feel too overwhelmed.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION

    When you're walking through the neighborhood, you can interact with the stray cats; that's the best part :)
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Try a New Way to Prep
    Canning and pickling food is a great way to have delicious summer fruits and vegetables all year round. Just make sure to follow the canning and pickling guidelines from the USDA or another trusted source. What are some foods that you would like to preserve and enjoy later in the year?
