MINIMALISM



I started clearing out the clutter in my home to utilize my time in this (Corona virus Pandemic)   lock down period and I realized that there was lot of unwanted things stuffed inside the wardrobes like unwanted clothes, drawers etc like my son's toys which he no more plays with them as our children's choices keep changes as they grew. 

While I was clearing up the mess, I remembered the concept of 'Minimalism' explained by the famous bestselling author Joshua Becker (https://www.becomingminimalist.com) which I recently gone through and would like to share with you the philosophy of minimalist.


What is Minimalism?

“Simplicity, clarity, singleness: These are the attributes that give our lives power and vividness and joy as they are also the marks of great art.” —Richard Holloway

What is a minimalist lifestyle?
It means living with things you really need. It means removing anything that distracts us from living with intentionality and freedom.
I started realizing the importance of being minimalism is by my personal experience i.e by clearing out the clutter in home and by keeping and maintaining only essential things meeting our needs and reducing my screen time. Yet there are many other aspects of minimalism which I yet to explore and work on .However in short, living a simple life helps us think freely, clearly and open to the beauty.
