Live Green | Declutter | Simplify Life
When was the last time you let yourself sit down and dream about your future? Kids do it all the time but, as we get older, we often shun this behaviour as a frivolous indulgence.
It’s World Dream Day, so this week’s Simple Living Sunday mission is embracing the idea that you’re never too old to dream. Will you dream along with me?
Who do you allow to influence you? In our consumption-driven society, the term influencer has become synonymous with consumerism and keeping up with the Joneses Kardashians.
This week’s Simple Living Sunday post explores the rise of influencer marketing, and how you can reject it and choose the right influencers for your life.
Life can be tough. Some days, it’s hard to find the motivation to keep going. To celebrate Never Give Up Day on August 18, this week’s Simple Living Sunday post is all about perseverance. Read on for tips to help you know when it’s time to dig in and keep going, and when it’s okay to walk away.
It’s hard to believe that we are more than halfway through 2022. It feels like only a couple of weeks ago that I sat down and made my list of goals for the year, and now I’m writing a mid-year progress report.
Today, the United States observes Juneteenth, and Tuesday is National Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada. These days provide an opportunity to reflect on the history of our two nations and the horrific treatment of Black and Indigenous people, so it feels appropriate to make owning our privilege this week’s Simple Living Sunday focus.
“Kindness costs nothing.” I remember my dad saying those words often when I was growing up. Sadly though, while that statement may be true, kindness seems to be a rare quality in our world these days. To mark Global Pay It Forward Day on April 28, this week’s theme for Simple Living Sunday is Kindness.
Where is the time going? April is already more than half over. With the first three months of 2022 in the books, it’s time for a first quarter progress report on my 2022 goals.
Are you a patient person? How do you react to a long line at the supermarket checkout, or a traffic jam on your way home from work? In a world where we demand quick service and instant results, minor inconveniences quickly escalate into major stressors. We’re just not willing to wait for anything.
Today, on Simple Living Sunday, we’ll take a deep breath and look for ways to improve our patience.
Now that we’ve settled into January, it’s time to put a bow on 2021 with a goals report card. I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions. Let’s face it—vague, overly-ambitious declarations made at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve are unlikely to have sticking power. I prefer to take some time at the beginning of the year to reflect before locking in my 2022 goals.
