Comments on activity: Getting 7 hours of sleep each night has been great for my mental and physical
health. I have felt much more energized and awake each day. I knew this week would be crazy, since
I was working every single day. Each night I came home and had a plan for what I needed to do
before the day was over. I got my errands done and went to bed as early as possible each night,
ensuring I got at least 7 hours of sleep.
Comments on activity: I had a very stressful week so I definitely needed this activity. I usually pray
little prayers throughout the day, but setting aside 10 minutes of quiet mindfulness was a nice
addition. I was able to calm my self and enjoy some quiet time. This week Alex and I touched base
on how we were doing with our self care. Alex slept at least 7 hours per night before and after work
or school and stated that she felt much more energized and focused after doing this.
Comments on activity: I have really noticed a difference in my mood since I have been doing this
consistently. I feel much more energized during the day. I also believe that my body is starting to get
used to being on my feet for 12+ hours. This week, Alex and I connected and chatted about how our
wellness plan was going. Alex hiked Tummamoc Hill --which falls into the moderate intensity
exercise category. Alex said the hike was very hard for her since she has not exercised in a while, but
she definitely enjoyed being out in nature.

Comments on activity: I enjoy riding my bike to campus/work. I am able to notice the beauty of
Tucson as well as get in some exercise. Riding my bike is sometimes scary at night in Tucson but
is much better than walking home! This week Alex has been doing workouts at home. These
workouts consist of: running on the treadmill and floor workouts. Alex has been experiencing a
lot of stress from an online math class she has to take last minute. These workouts are helping
relieve her stress.
Week 5 Description of intervention implemented this week (include frequency/length of time):
Week of 10/16. This week I worked out 3x in the gym at my apartment. My workouts included
running, using the elliptical, and riding the stationary bike.
Comments on activity:
When I was getting ready to work out, I thought about taking a nap instead, but after doing some
cardio I felt much better. I slept very well that night. I hope I continue to work out 3x a week. This
weekend Alex spent four days in Sedona with her family. She was able to do multiple hikes and
enjoy nature simultaneously.
Comments on activity: I have been less motivated this week to work out, and I am not sure why. I
have been working more and have had less time to workout. This week Alex worked out at home.
She used resistance bands, did ab workouts, and walked on the treadmill when it was on incline.
We are both trying to get into better shape, so we are encouraging each other to work out!
Have you noticed any changes in your life since you began this intervention?
I have noticed that I am less irritable once I began these interventions. I am glad that I pushed
myself to do these evidence based interventions and saw a difference in myself.
Comments/suggestions:
I would definitely recommend keeping this assignment for upcoming semesters. I think it almost
forces us to focus on ourselves, which is a great thing. I appreciated this assignment.
