    At times a simplified life requires you to think outside of the box. Thinking of ways to reduce and reuse items can require creativity and a vision. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION

    I find the more mindful I am while eating I am taking the opportunity to find gratitude for my meals, chew them slower, and my digestion is better.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Disconnect from Email
    Notice how much time you were spending checking email away from work and make note of that. Now that you have stepped away from it and have not been checking, what changes are you noticing in your thoughts, use of time, stress and energy levels?

    Checking my email leas has given me more time to spend conversating and connecting with others.
