5 Super Simple Ways To Minimalistic Lifestyle

Living a life of simplicity can be a beautiful thing. But simplifying itself can seem like an overwhelming process.

So I recommend simplicity in your simplifying.

Simplicity is the path.

You can pick one of the ideas below and implement it today. If it works well, continue it tomorrow. Or try one of the other ideas. And do it with a smile!

• Single task. When you have started a task, do only that. Close everything else, put your phone away, and just focus on that one task. If you’re reading this article, stay with it and do nothing else until you’ve done reading. When you decide to check social media, check one at a time and do it fully and with mindfulness. When you go for a walk, have nothing to listen to or look at, other than the nature all around you. One thing at a time: just read, just write, or just eat. This is such a simple idea, and it’s doable right now.
• Use in-between spaces as mini-meditations. When you’ve done with one thing, instead of rushing to the next, pause. Enjoy this in-between space. Notice how you’re feeling, what’s around you, what you just did, what your intention is for what you’re about to do. Just enjoy this time fully, as if it’s just as important as anything else you do.
• Let go of one commitment. Our lives are so full because we say yes to so much, and our commitments pile up over time. You can greatly simplify your life by letting go of one commitment. What isn’t fulfilling you? Practice saying no with confidence and love.
• Be fully with someone. Pick someone today to be with fully. Just be with them. Listen to them. Try to fully see them. Open your mind to them. Send them your love. If you do this with one person a day, which is such a simple thing to do, your life will become better through better relationships and connection.
• Clear one space. Find one little area in your work space or home, and declutter it. For example, just a little space on your desk. Consider this space as a sacred one. Whenever you want peace, just sit in this place. Let this be the blissful oasis of peace and simplicity that will ripple outward to the rest of your life!

These are the five little things you can do, no matter what you are doing. Don’t do all five things, but just pick one.
