DAY 4

Today's challenge is to see if you can stop using technology 1 hour before bed! Instead, use that time to unwind and relax. Maybe you can even try to meditate or read a good book!

DAY 6

Today let's focus on a friend! Reach out and do something special for them. It can be as simple as buying them a cup of coffee!

DAY 8

Welcome to day 8 of our Christmas challenge! Today's call-to-action is to make at least one of your meals a full vegetarian meal! This does not mean you can have poutine for lunch! Try to make the meal as healthy and clean as possible

DAY 5

At this time of the year with holiday parties, alcohol is frequently consumed. We want you to focus on the amount of water you drink today! Take note of how much you're drinking and be mindful to see if you're drinking enough water!

DAY 7

We are more than half way through our Christmas challenge! With the busy holiday season we often forget to incorporate physical activity into our schedule. Today's task is to do atleast 10 minutes of physical activity! It doesn't have to be strenuous, just as long as you're up and active!

DAY 9

With our busy day-to-day lives we often lose touch with our friends and family. Today your challenge is to reach out to someone you haven't spoken to in a while! It could be over a phone call, over social media or even a text message!

DAY 11

What makes you happy? I know something as simple as lighting up a candle, or sitting by the fireplace definitely puts a smile on my face! Make a list of things that make you happy and try to incorporate into your day.
