Hello everyone... It's time to follow along with our health weekly discussions and this time we have a special surprise for all of our beloved community members.

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, together with the people you love.

2022 is coming to an end and that usually means we take a look back on how our year went and everything we've accomplished together. As a community that is aiming for health awareness on the Hive blockchain, we couldn't let the chance of reflection pass by. Therefore, this week's discussion will take a different path, with a different initiative!

Go on to find more!

We are proposing our community members to join us this week and do a post that answers the following question 👇

Here are some suggestions to help those creative minds:

• What would you like to improve in your lifestyle that could benefit your health?
• What unhealthy habits do you wish to change?
• Set 3 objectives for 2023 to improve your health or change unhealthy habits

The little improvements go a long way when it comes to our health! Think about little steps towards changing habits. For example, if you wish to do more exercise next year, start small and do at least one 15 min. walk a week. Little is always better than nothing!

We are looking forward to reading all your posts on this special health weekly discussion.

Yes, more rewards are at stake here!! The rewards will be as follow:

1 HIVE for the best post overall

50 Ecency points for everyone who participates
