In today’s fast-paced world filled with endless options it is easy to get sucked up into the consumer mentality that more is better. Everywhere we turn we are presented new offers, prompting what can feel like an endless stream of decisions to make. Living this way is exhausting.
But there is another option for those who want to live more simple, happier, and healthier lives. We can take control of our lives, start living intentionally and regain the freedom to do things on our own unique terms.
We can deliberately choose each item, person, and experience, clearing space to enjoy only those which add value to our lives and bring us joy.
This is what it means to be a minimalist. It is an attitude that is cultivated from within. It doesn’t matter how many items you own, how big your living space is, or the size of the bag you travel with.
