Living More With Less Waste.
✨"Although I haven't sold any items as a result of decluttering but I have given out items to people who really need them. I keep items like plastics and bottles for a particular woman who buys them in the neighborhood. It's a way of making a living for herself, so giving her is just my simple way of assisting her." @george-dee
To Hold or Let Go...
✨"There are a lot of sentimental gifts and items I own from friendships and relationships that are no longer present. It’s quite hard to let go of these things since they have so many memories backed in them. But I understand that I need to abide by the principle of mental decluttering to live a more wholesome, stress free life. But is knowing the importance of letting go enough to just let go?" @jhymi
DEALING WITH MAXIMALISTS
✨"The thing is, taking care of my space with them around is not a big deal but then the fact that the moment I step out and get back in everything seems to be back to the way they were, that is the problem." @hopestylist
𝑶𝒖𝒕 𝑾𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑬𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔.. 𝑰𝒏 𝑾𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑬𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆.
✨""Can worrying add a cubit to our life span?" This is one of my favorite quote from the holy book, I was a huge fan of anxiety, I worried about almost everything, you can call me an over thinker, but embracing minimalism taught to let go of unnecessary baggage in my heart and just live truly and freely." @amiegeoffrey
The big challenge was hoarding
✨"You know, when you haven’t worn a piece of clothing in a long time, putting it on makes you look fresh and different in the eyes of others, or at least gives the sense of being different. That’s what I didn’t want to miss. Since I didn’t have many clothes, I preferred to keep everything in good form, even if it meant waiting two to three years before wearing some of them again." @kingsleyy
Transformation
✨"Growing up in scarcity, in a scarcity of emotional well being, left me feeling unworthy. So it was easier for me to see money as being bad, because deep down I didn't believe I deserved to have anything in service of my life. It was what I was used to, what I grew up with. Not feeling loved or supported in my own home." @trucklife-family
Embracing The Change.
✨"Honestly, I didn't push anyone away. I just wanted them to see things from my perspective as well, but it doesn't sit well with many of those I called friends. My circle depreciated in numbers but increased a lot in value, and I saw the impact of the few left with me." @george-dee
#KISS - Minimalism and the spirit
✨"How many material things do you need to do good deeds or a comforting word? Well, many of them are free! And we use our own life and breath to demonstrate our spiritual health." @aaalviarez
Phones Down, Spirit Up!
✨"But something nasty about cheap dopamine is that it never truly satisfies you. The moment you stop, your brain rebels and forces you to pick it back up again." @zitalove
𝑳𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑫𝒆𝒆𝒑 & 𝑭𝒓𝒆𝒆: Decluttered Spirit
✨"Whether we believe in it or not, this world isn't ours, we would all leave someday, and so, leading a life with little or no regret is what we should hope for. For me, thinking back to how I've been living my life spiritually, minimalistic practices has always been there." @merit.ahama

🔸 If possible we recommend that authors try to use original photos taken by you. Photos count toward the possibility of your post being curated.
🔸 Just a reminder that the weekly #KISS Blog Ideas is presented with ideas on topics to write about and to help you to structure your blogs, they are not meant to be questionnaires for you to list information and publish.
