3 MINIMALIST PRACTICES THAT CHANGE YOUR LIFE
You have probably heard some good things about minimalism. But do you know how exactly can it change your life? Here are 3 minimalist practices that could change your life.
1. Replace Not Add
Minimalism is all about living with the things that value add to your life, in other words, the things that you need. Decluttering is a big part of leading a minimalist lifestyle, but it is not sustainable to keep on decluttering when you are constantly bringing in new things into your life that you don’t need. When you decide to do replacements, you throw one item out for every item that you buy. This allows you to buy only what you need because you are replacing something that you use regularly.
2. Minimalist Home Design
Living in a clean and simple home allows you to feel more relaxed and refreshed. It removes any unnecessary stress that comes from a cluttered environment and reduces the time you spend cleaning your house. This way, you get to spend more time doing the things you love, such as spending time with your loved ones.
3. Eco-Friendly Lifestyle
Leading an eco-friendly lifestyle complements minimalist living very well. There is a relatively large gap between a “normal” lifestyle and leading an eco-friendly lifestyle. But when you are leading a minimalist lifestyle, decluttering becomes an essential part of life, and you are able to buy more sustainable items such as glass containers and bottles when you start decluttering, thus it narrows the gap for you, and allows you to port over to an eco-friendly lifestyle more easily.
Everyone experiences minimalism in a different manner. Just give it some time and don’t give up on your lifestyle change, we promise that there is a light at the end. We wish you all the best in your minimalist journey!
