    What best helped Mindfulness Practice was scheduling it. This ensures that I take the time needed to reflect and breathe.

    Health Reduce refined sugar
    Before you started this challenge, did you think you were 'addicted' to sugar? How do you feel now?

    Before this challenge started I wasn't 'addicted' to sugar. However, before 10th grade, I was. Then my body started to reject the high sugar intake telling me to slow down. Ever since I've had maybe 1-3 pieces of candy, if any. As a result of reducing my sugar intake I had much more energy and felt better overall (like I wasn't putting junk constantly in my body).

    It was very nice to have extra time today for mindfulness. Even just reading a book and relaxing is so nice!

    I have had trouble with meeting my goal of sleeping an extra hour every night because I've had a lot of projects and tests, however, I have been incorporating power naps into my daily routine this week in order to get things done more efficiently. It's really important to let our bodies rest even if its just for a little while. Rest helps with mental cognition and performance, which are crucial!

    How can we reduce our sugar when eating at our school's cafeteria is not a healthy option and neither is our Starbucks and we can not afford a lot of going out/meal prep? Is there any alternative?

      Best way? Pack a lunch. I know it can be time consuming, it sometimes just prepping a few lunches at once, is really helpful. Then you just grab and go.
