Minimalism

If you’re looking for minimalist inspiration this is definitely the section to peruse.  There are many reasons to adopt a minimalist lifestyle, other than decluttering.  Minimalism is a lot about contentment, and being happy with what you already have instead of buying the next thing to temporarily soothe and comfort yourself for the next few hours or days.  Not only do you save money when you adopt a minimalism approach, you realize that there aren’t many things in life you need.  Your needs and wants will be clearer.
