While I have an episode on creating morning and nightly cleaning routines, this one doesn’t include much tidying up. In this episode, I talk about the things I do—or don’t do—in order to get ready for a great night of sleep.

There are so many habits I’ve developed—good and bad— that have changed my life. While I can’t control everything (let’s face it—it’s nice to have control of even a few things), there are several things I try to do each day so that I can live my life to the fullest, enjoy those people that are most important to me, and work on goals and skills, which has become a huge part of my life. I still have bad habits, but I’m happy to slowly see the good ones winning more and more often.

It’s that time of year when many people are considering gift-giving for various holidays. This is one of the trickiest times to be a minimalist, in my opinion. Not only is it quite possible to receive a gift that doesn’t quite fit with your minimalistic practices, it often happens that there’s a bit of an internal moral dilemma. It’s something I’ve struggled with and am finally getting more comfortable sorting out. Hopefully you can find some useful info in this episode about minimalism and gifts.

While it’s understandable that minimalists focus on what they do NOT want to spend their money on, it’s just as important to figure out what you WANT to spend your money and time on. In this episode, I talk about what I’m spending more time and resources on and why.

Minimalism encompasses a lot of things—often issues that come and go. Whether we’re talking about the physical or not-so-physical stuff, minimalism always seems to include decluttering and ditching things we don’t want in our lives. Here are some tips and questions you can ask yourself to make ditching and decluttering just a little easier.

The more I practice minimalism, the less stuff I purchase. I like to think it’s because I have bigger goals and desires which include having the time and space to enjoy my life and experiences. It hasn’t always been this way, though. Here are some of the pitfalls I’ve experienced in the past, some of which I still have to remind myself are a waste of money.
