The Minimalists talk about navigating the nuances of human touch, sensory overload, pain, pleasure, unnecessary distractions, storage units, travel, decision fatigue, letting go of old boxes, and more!

Discussed in this episode:

As self-proclaimed “huggers,” how do The Minimalists avoid overstepping personal-space boundaries with hugs and other forms of physical touch? (2:08)

Talkaboutable: Hugs alleviate stress and may boost your immune system by 32%. (6:37)

What role do your five senses play in amplifying your joy or magnifying your discontent? (24:58)

Right Here, Right Now: Play the 30-Day Minimalism Game. (40:48)

Listener tip: Embrace boredom and discomfort to live a simple life that is free of unnecessary distractions and overstimulation. (43:55)
