Alex DiBlasio

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will find out what food programs are in my area and donate food and/or other items that they request.

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

I will spend 60 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

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

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meals and/or 1 vegan meals each day this week.

I will spend minutes listening to a podcast about food.

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 spend 60 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

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.

I will shop at a farmers market or food co-op to support local farmers and businesses. By doing so, I may be able to learn more about who produces the food I eat and goods I buy.

I will repair at least one item that is broken, but is repairable. This might be items like garden tools, sewing machine, small appliances, electronics, clothing, and more.
