In a world that constantly encourages wanting more, this episode explores the hidden cost of desire through the minimalist philosophy of Epicurus. The more we chase possessions, status, and endless options, the more anxious, dependent, and dissatisfied we often become.

Epicurus taught that many of our desires are artificial created by society rather than true necessities and that these desires quietly steal our peace.
This reflection invites you to question what you truly need in order to live well. Simplicity, as Epicurus understood it, is not about deprivation or sacrifice, but about clarity and freedom. When you learn to need less, fear softens, anxiety loosens its grip, and the need for external validation begins to fade.

Through philosophy and practical insight, this video shows how reducing excess both material and mental can lead to a lighter, more stable, and genuinely free life. If you feel overwhelmed by comparison, choice, or pressure to want more, this is an invitation to rediscover contentment through simplicity.
