Since simplifying my overall life over the past year, I have created time and space for things that matter the most. From creating a morning routine to building a business around things I enjoy doing, to lingering.
Instead of rushing, I learned how to make time. It wasn’t just saying no and freeing up time, but slowing down the clock by moving through the day with more attention and intention. As I became more aware of how precious my time was, I knew rushing through it wasn’t an option anymore.

Getting rid of everything that doesn’t matter allows you to remember who you are. Simplicity doesn’t change who you are, it brings you back to who you are. Simplifying your life invites you to start peeling back the layers of excess, outside and in. Once you remove all the things that have been covering you up and holding you back, you can step into yourself, back into your heart, and be you again.
One thing to note about living a soulful simplicity is that it’s not a quick fix or something you do once. It’s more like exercise where you have to keep practising, keep starting over, and keep coming back. It’s always here for you, but it’s up to you to practice, connect, and reconnect with it. Make this journey about making you. Think about what you are made of, and what you want your life to be. Then make it.

TIPS TO MAKE LIFE EASIER
- Don’t strive for perfection – Just do what you can, when you can.
- Make good use of your time – It’s your most limited resource. Try not to waste it, think carefully about how you spend it and guard your free time.
- Be yourself – Don’t waste your life trying to live like someone else. Improve your own life and make it good!
- Don’t be afraid to u-turn on a decision – If something’s not working for you, find a way to change it. It doesn’t matter if you’ve had your heart set on it for a while, things change.
- Speak a mixture of kind words and tough love – We all need lifting up and a kick up the *** every now and then. Learn to listen and understand yourself so you know what you need and when!
