  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Choose Organic Ingredients
    It is often said that “you can’t feed the world with just organic food.” What is your response to that statement?

    I think  we can absolutely feed the world with organic food.  Factory farming is harmful to the soil and to our communities in general.

    How to be a better human being!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Mug
    Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?

    It's a challenge to keep a reusable mug with me at all times just in case I feel like a latte.  They don't fit well in purses.  But, it's a great feeling to minimize disposable cups to lessen our landfills.

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

    My favorite part of my week is walking with my girlfriends on the weekends.  We catch up and then treat ourselves to coffee when we're done.

    Gratitude frames our outlooks so that our perception filters are balanced and aren't coming from a selfish place.
