REFLECTION QUESTION
Simplicity Less Screen Time

What did you notice in implementing this challenge? Was it hard to choose other activities over screen time? How did you decide to spend your time?

Skye Morton 10/28/2020 8:23 PM

Having a break from screen time is always nice because unless I'm off of my phone, I don't even realize how quickly time goes by or how long Ive been staring at my screen. Also, now that we're doing school from our computers, we spend so much more time on technology, and taking a break is very refreshing

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Use a Reusable Water Bottle

While water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?

Skye Morton 10/28/2020 8:20 PM

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?

Skye Morton 10/28/2020 8:18 PM

I really enjoy taking walks because it's a nice break from my phone and computer screen. It gives me a designated time to think and observe my surroundings.
