REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicityWhat did you notice in implementing this challenge? Was it hard to choose other activities over screen time? How did you decide to spend your time?
Emily Horak 10/01/2025 11:20 PMI have been wanting to spend more time enjoying my creative hobbies like painting and sewing, but its easy to get stuck on screens. I always feel better after spending even a few minutes doing something creative, and want to implement into my day instead of screens.
