Why take this challenge?
Give yourself a screen break
Trying out different modes of relaxation and renewal
During my research to pull these adventures together, a number of people emphasised the use of small physical challenges to get away from the screen. Things like learning to juggle and mechanical puzzles take the brain somewhere totally different and, for some, that can be amazingly helpful.
So this weeks adventure is to see whether you may be one of those people.
If you have a puzzle at home to use, then try that (as long as it is not screen based). If not, then I have populated the tracks with simple ideas you might use with common objects.
+ Green track - taking it in your stride
+ Blue track - a bit of a workout (click to open)
+ Red track - stepping up to bat (click to open)
