Getting and staying asleep is my challenge.  Shutting of phones and other sourses of blue light one hour before bed may help.  Getting to bed at the same time each night is also something I'm trying.  Waking each more at the same time is already something I practice.

Some activites and events are getting easier with practice!

Plastic water bottles were an easy grab for me and during this Eco Challenge I am taking the time to use my metallic water bottle.  It's a habit I wish to continue all year through. 

I feel most connected to my neighbors when meeting them out and about, leaving home and getting outside where interactions can occur.  Even with local community events, one needs to schedule the time, put aside other time takers, and be present at the event.  Excited for pumpkin harvest festivals etc.

Sugar and simple carbohydrates really get my appetite going, so choosing nuts or veggies and humus seem to help me feel energized  without a crash.

Gratitude and appreciation sets my mindfulness for a much happier day.  Motivation for any tasks is heightened when I am clear about what I appreciate about the completion of the task.
