    I usually have more energy and feel more full so it has a significant effect on my personal contentment. I already don't eat much meat, but reducing that consumption could have a great effect on my personal carbon footprint.

    How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

    Working out with friends. I like taking different classes with friends when possible. Playing sports is also a fun way to get outside and get to socialize when you workout. I play pick up soccer games sometimes for this.

    I definitely think I'm addicted to sugar. I gave up processed sugar for Lent and it was very difficult. I' think it'd be useful to be more mindful about what I'm eating, since sugar is hidden in so many different food products.
