I’m

quitting soda and replacing it with a healthier, slighlty pricier beverage

less addicting and doesn’t harm my health, in fact it will save me money long term in dental problems and costs. Its at least >= 1%

Feel free to be a little loose with the quantifying ;)

    Going on daily walks or short trips to a gym a couple days per week. I feel so much better after I started consistently exercising, both mentally and physically.

    I forget if it was here or back when I was on that other site where I read it, but at least a year ago someone suggested “don’t put it down, put it away” as a mantra to mentally recite whenever I’m holding something at home to prevent clutter build-up in common spits to sit. I don’t always follow it, but it’s been a huge help in managing my own item organization and management.

    As a way to combat the difficulty I have with noticing messiness in visually busy environments like a household room, I also try to pick up a piece of refuse or dirty dish l that may have been forgotten whenever I know I’m going near or to the kitchen; I’ve developed that into a reliable habit, which is extra helpful when I forget why I went to the kitchen in the first place- only to go back to the kitchen for a second time, with yet another item in hand.

    The individual actions are very easy, simple things I can remember to do in the moment when I think of them as I’m doing something else.

    Edit: I’m aware the ask was about things we could implement, not have implemented, but I felt I hit the general idea; very simple changes that may improve QoL.

      If I put it away I might never know it exists again. On the other hand the clutter means I can’t find what’s right in front of me. It’s hell in here.

    I’m I’m the middle of a 30 day challenge to eat a fermented food every day. Doing pretty good so far.

    Good for you on the soda! It’s really one of the worst things you can consume, even the sugar free. I was blessed with a distaste for carbonation from birth, but I have plenty of other vices.

      Oh man, ironically I love kombucha and I’ll probably preserve that as a cheat. It “only” has like 10g so its acceptable as an occasional treat and probiotic

    All my smart home appliances have broken when I fiddled with the internet a few months ago. Reconnecting them and setting everything up to work again would be such a huge improvement
