Julia Reynoso

I will spend 30 about food apartheid and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meals and/or 1 vegan meals each day this week.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will watch 1 documentaries about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

Processed foods can be less nutritious for our bodies and take more energy and water to produce, which can create more waste, pollution, and offer less benefit to our health. I will enjoy 1 meals per day free of processed foods.

Organic farming practices are healthier and safer for our planet, animals, and people. I will enjoy 1 meals cooked with organic ingredients per day.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minutes each day.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.
