Daily movement supports our physical and mental health. I will spend 20 minutes each day exercising in a way that feels good to me, such as walking, running, stretching, or dancing.

Small acts of kindness and gratitude can brighten someone's day and create a positive ripple effect. I will express gratitude to people or perform random acts of kindness to spread joy and connection.

Strong neighborhoods are built on connection and trust. I will introduce myself to 1 neighbors or spend time getting to know people in my community.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, classmate, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 5 conversations.

I will sign up for a car-sharing service or coordinate ride shares with roommates, classmates, or campus peers to reduce the number of vehicles on the road.

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

I will make sure I'm registered to vote. While I'm at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will offer to help 1 person(s) who are in need each day.

We may find more meaning and joy in life when our actions are aligned with our personal values. I will determine what my top 3-5 core values are so that I can better align my actions with them.

I will take a walk each day to clear my mind, get some fresh air, and support my physical and mental health as a student.

I will spend 10 minutes practicing Loving-Kindness Meditation to nurture love and compassion for myself and others.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will take a 10-minute walk outside each day around my campus, neighborhood, or local green space to connect with nature.

I will replace 60 minutes per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

I will spend 5 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will spend 5 minutes learning which plants support local native pollinators and grow some in containers, a campus garden, or at home if space allows.
