January 09 – Specific Gratitudes: Take a few moments this morning and write out a list of ten (10) things for which you are Thank-full. To help get you started, at the top of the list write “Life”, then “Consciousness”, then “Free Will” and then “Nature’s Wonders”. You get to fill in the final six […]
January 08 – Music Appreciation: Some have said that humans invented music to “correct” our own discordant vibrations &/or to harmonize the discord in our surroundings. Regardless of whether or not this is true, music is clearly a powerful force in human culture. That having been said, today is the day in which to appreciate […]
January 07 – Acting on Intuition: Put a six-sided die or a special coin or two same-sized stones (one dark & one light) into your pocket. Then, base all decisions today on the “roll of the dice” (e.g. odd #’s or white stone or heads = “Yes” & even #’s or black stone or tails […]
January 06 – Silent Being: Sit silently with a friend for 30 minutes. Gaze at him/her regularly, Seeing his/her True Self when you do so. If no friend is handy, find someone on a public bench and simply sit next to them for that amount of time … Note that this is not a time […]
January 05 – Respecting the Earth: Fresh water is arguably your most precious resource – and the world is rapidly running out of it. Today, respect water by conserving it.

January 04 – Flowing Faith-fully: Start the day today by “randomly” choosing a number, a color, and a direction (“left” is as good as “north”). Then, at the time of day of your choosing, set off for one hour and only walk towards/with one of these three “signposts”. At the end of the hour, have […]
January 03 – “Soul Vision”: Regardless of your particular religious (or non-religious) beliefs, live the entire day today under the assumption that everything that happens to you — everything that you see &/or hear, and everyone who crosses your path — is a direct messenger from God (a.k.a. “the Universe” or “the Life Force”). Assume […]
January 02 – Personalizing your Calendar: Establish &/or renew your personal Holy Days. Obtain a standard calendar and note the day of your conception (“exactly” 9 months before your birth).

January 01 – Respecting Sentient Life: Today, do not eat, imbibe or utilize any animals or animal products. Bonus: From this day forth, decide to eat only animals that either you kill yourself or that you personally witness being killed. This activity is not meant to be a condemnation of any of you who eat […]
December 31 – General Gratitude: Go somewhere away from your home (e.g. the woods, a mountaintop, the roof of a skyscraper, etc.) and pause to reflect on the Blessing that is your Life itself … Wait until you really feel Grateful for being alive – then scream “Thank Youuuuuuuuuuuu!” to the Cosmos for as loud […]
December 30 – Art Appreciation: Today is a day to appreciate Art in your Life. This presents a number of options – going to an art museum being the most obvious among them. If you do go to a museum, that’s great, and yet your task for the day is to find art in unconventional […]
