Returning to the 29 day Wellness Challenge!

Better get on this, right? February starts Saturday.

For those not eagerly reading each blog as it emerges from the tips of my busy fingers, as it were - what's that? You have other things to do with your time? :) -
a few days ago I mentioned the-power-of-30-day-challenge has inspired me to created my own 29 day challenge for the month of February. It is an experiment of course. No stress! You notice the kinds of wellness choices are very dependent on the work and activism things on that day. Trying to be realistic.

As I have been mapping the below out and thinking about it, there are other key elements not in the map. Friends and family are really important but I haven't got all those conversations on the phone, lunches, tea breaks, and movie nights planned into my calendar yet. I will! Music is tremendously healing at all times - I listen in the car, while doing admin at home, at night or in the morning when I can't sleep... And walking - trying to walk as much as I can, for exercise, fresh air, and regaining my confidence, strength, and balance.

At least as important is what I will not be doing. Social media took up way too much time in 2019. It expanded to multiple hours per day. I find I feel much better with two or three short bursts of social media a day and otherwise not looking at Facebook and Twitter.
