Let’s Slow Down: Simple + Intentional Living, Decluttering, Life on Purpose

How My Family Quit Being Busy for a Season, #76


Listen Later

In this reflective episode, I recap my family's spring, focusing on our decision to forgo intense sports and embrace a simpler, more intentional season. I share insights on the benefits we experienced, including less stress, improved mental and physical health, and more quality family time.

Benefits of Our Simpler Spring:

  • Less Busy Schedule

  • Increased Quality Time

  • Improved Mental Health

  • Better Physical Health

  • Focus on Important Activities

  • Observations:

    • Kids spent more time outdoors, playing together, and exploring hobbies.

    • Mom found more time for personal projects, like her podcast and writing a book.

    • The family experienced a lighter, more focused, healthier, and less frazzled lifestyle.

    • As I reflect on the success of our spring experiment to quit being busy, I’d like to encourage listeners to consider experimenting with simplifying their schedules to reduce stress and improve family well-being. I can’t emphasize enough the importance of taking time to regroup, reset, and find clarity.
