What does minimalism actually look like?


Listen Later

Today's episode is about what does minimalism actually look like to you....  I am creating a program that will help create that life that you desire and I really wanted to involve you so I would know what you are struggling with. I created a survey and there was a lot of answers around minimizing so this inspired today's podcast.

I feel that the word minimalism is very intimidating and we are getting confused about what it means for me when I think of it, I like to think of it as fine tuning your life.  You can still have stuff, have hobbies etc. Its about what our desires are and there is a grey line and we start collecting things to substitute what we are feeling. We are missing something in our lives and we replace that with stuff. 

 A great way to create a minimalist life is to have rules and guidelines that will help guide us through the tough decisions on when to buy items and when we need it or is it just a want. 

I chat about how to shift your mindset to create a minimalist lifestyle. How trauma can be a huge part of why we collect clutter and have such an attachment to stuff, with my trauma it made me feel the opposite that I was not good enough and did not deserve stuff.
