It’s a perfect time of the year to start thinking of putting a simple life into practise, holidays are on the horizon, use that time to start your change, it’s a change that can stay.
Try doing one thing at a time:- We set down a list of things, and on top of it we want to do them all at the same time, chill…. take one thing at a time, this way you learn not to over pressure yourself and without rushing.
Avoid relationships that give you nothing:- There are relationships that only take our time and energy, before you go to see these people,think how they make you feel and if you are motivated to see them.
Lighten your diary:- List what you need to do, maybe from 1 to 10, line in a bright colour the most important, and forget the rest for another day.
Give yourself space:- Imagine your home empty, what would you take back and what do you think you would leave out for ever ! What is necessary, remove what you don’t use anymore, when you have physical space you give serenity to your mind.
Time to do nothing:- This does not mean read a book, paint, it means do nothing, just sit, and let the tension flow away, your whole day will feel much lighter, let routine go out of the window.
Change the order:- Give priorities a different order, at times we put our work ahead of everything, our health our life in general, give yourself time for yourself, your body, your mind, your friends. You work when you are at work !
A walk:- Give yourself time, for a little stroll,just enjoy walking in the open air, take in what is around you and enjoy, you will notice how your problems will leave you, your focus is where you are.

I have been aiming for a simpler life for many years.
Life can be complicated especially if you have lots of family, certainly a blessing. Think I’ll go for a walk and clear out the cob webs! Nice article.
