Black Friday Alternatives

Ways we can be / do instead of feeding into the frenzied consumption of Black Friday:

• Donate to a non-profit / organization that is aligned with your values / goals

• Spend an hour picking up litter in your area

• Give away things you don't need

• Ask others if they have anything to share they may not need, that you are looking for

• Presence > presents

• Mend something that needs repairing 

• Name aloud 5 things why you love to choose to be yourself

• Spend time WITH Nature, AS Nature

• Volunteer your time with an elder in your life

• Step into a ritual where you invite the spirits to share their vision of abundance, and your role within it

• Cast a spell that reinforces a restorative, circular economy, starting with yourself, however small
