Hand washing dishes can use more energy and hot water than running a full dishwasher. To save water, I will scrape instead of rinsing dishes before loading them into the dishwasher, and only run it when it is full.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will Practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

I will save up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will spend at least 20 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will avoid sending food waste to the landfill by composting my food scraps.

I will reflect on how I am feeling and express myself through writing, art, music, physical activity, or another creative way to enhance well-being

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 10 minute(s) each day.

I will spend 10 minute(s) per day practicing Mindfulness and/or Meditation.
