REFLECTION QUESTION
Simplicity Limit Social Media

Social media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also take more time than we realize or intend to give. After doing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?

Melinda Driesen 10/09/2020 7:48 AM

I feel like I have taken time to make efforts to contact friends and family, instead of just scrolling thru the feeds. Its given me the opportunity to do a "check in" or just to say "I have been thinking about you." Right now there seems to be a lot of negativity on social media, so I am happy to spend my time off of it.

Health Go Get a Check Up

How do you practice self care?

Melinda Driesen 10/09/2020 7:40 AM

I exercise multiple days a week and include time for recovery (stretching, foam rolling, & massage gun.)
I also try to eat cleanly most of the time, with not a lot of processed foods in my diet.
And I make sure to get my annual check ups scheduled every year (Dental, Optical, & Physical).

REFLECTION QUESTION
Action Track: Healing and Renewal 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?

Melinda Driesen 10/05/2020 3:22 PM

If I walk in the morning, it sets the tone of my mind of the day and energizes me to get tasks accomplished. If I walk in the evening, it allows you to reflect on the days events and work thru frustrations before trying to relax.
