66 Soft

A 66-day challenge adapted from 75 hard with an emphasis on mindfulness and mental health.

66 days instead of 75 because according to neuroscience, it takes about 66 days to create a habit. Soft instead of hard because this isn’t about mental and physical grit and forcing yourself through a grueling challenge. It’s a gentle approach to incorporating habits conducive to living a more mindful, joyful life.
