Take on the happy habit challenge this summer and start fundraising for Kidney Cancer UK!

by | Jun 25, 2013 | Kidney Cancer UK News

We have all got bad habits we would rather we were rid of. Why not turn them into happy habits? And with an added bit of fundraising, you’ll have that extra incentive to make your new habit stick.
Happy Habit challenge
 
How to get started:
1. Choose your happy habit. If you are stuck for ideas, please find some suggestions below.
2. Create your fundraising page.
3. Tell your friends and ask them to keep you motivated with a donation.
So this summer ditch a bad habit & turn it into a happy habit to transform your mind, body + soul and make a difference. Share your ideas & progress with us on Twitter using #happyhabit.
 
Happy habit fundraising suggestions for transforming the mind, body and soul: 
THE MIND CHALLENGE – Become a bookworm
Bad habit: Ditch the hours of TV time.
Happy habit: Start reading again. And to keep you going, set up a book club.
Best way to give: Charge a small donation fee for each book club.
Your mantra: Feed your brain
THE BODY CHALLENGE – Cook up a storm

Bad habit: Those ready-made meals may taste great but boy are they unhealthy.
Happy habit: Get into the healthy eating habit with a month of home cooking.
Best way to give: Cook for a lucky few friends and ask them to donate in return.
Your mantra: You are what you eat
THE SOUL CHALLENGE – Do something different
Bad habit: There’s nothing worse for your soul than getting stuck in a rut.
Happy habit: Step outside your comfort zone – try something new every day for a month.
Best way to give: Get your friends to dare you and make a donation for the privilege.
Your mantra: Do one thing a day that scares you.
