Are you interested in minimalism? If so, read on. The good news is that it has been a minimalist since almost a decade now and v has learned A LOT while doing it! Here are a few of our favorite resources and tips to get you started with minimalism quickly. Let's get cracking! Minimalism is a very powerful tool. It can free up so much time that you might never have even thought about before. However, it isn't so easy as just letting go of all the stuff in your house. Getting rid of the clutter in your house is a gradual process. So it's important to pick the right approach for the first time and continue with minimalism the next time too! So, what should you do the first time you decide to give it a shot? First, get started by decluttering everything in sight that you think needs to go. Get rid of any items that are "junk" that simply takes up space. Now, clear the clutter up inside of your home too. Then take everything out. How do you do this, exactly? Well, the first step towards getting rid of the clutter in your life is to determine whether or not you want to live a minimalist lifestyle or if you would prefer to live with some clutter. Once you make that decision, you can easily move towards a minimalistic lifestyle by decluttering your home and office and getting rid of anything that doesn't need to be there. You'll have a better idea of what minimalist living is really like once you're clear about what you want from decluttering.

What is minimalism? At its core, minimalism involves the use of only the most basic, essential elements in design and art. In other words, minimalism involves art that utilizes the barest of essentials - nothing more, nothing less. So what is minimalism exactly? The short answer is that it's an art style, entirely on a minimalist level: minimalism can be viewed as an aesthetic principle, or even a guiding principle for artistic creation. For some artists, minimalism comes easy; the result is a type of art where everything is simply added to the background, enhancing the piece instead of subtracting from it. For others, minimalism can be a difficult, frustrating way to express yourself because it requires the artist to not only pay attention to the appearance of their work, but also to pay attention to the subtleties of form and color. Still others think of minimalism in a more philosophical way, claiming it to be the foundation for all creative endeavor. Regardless of how one views minimalism, it's apparent that it can add tremendous value to your home. When you live with minimalism in your home, it allows you to appreciate the simple pleasures of life. You're less stressed out, have more time to enjoy family and friends, and don't waste money or energy trying to make art or literature out of everyday objects. Because you're living a minimalist lifestyle, you're able to appreciate simple pleasures like spending time with friends, going for a walk in the park, or enjoying that new cookbook you picked up at the local library. This allows you to live a more enjoyable, less stressful life.

Wear just 33 items for 3 months and get back all the JOY you were missing while you were worrying what to wear. In Project 333, minimalist expert and author of Soulful Simplicity Courtney Carver takes a new approach to living simply--starting with your wardrobe. Project 333 promises that not only can you survive with just 33 items in your closet for 3 months, but you'll thrive just like the thousands of woman who have taken on the challenge and never looked back. Let the de-cluttering begin! Ever ask yourself how many of the items in your closet you actually wear? In search of a way to pare down on her expensive shopping habit, consistent lack of satisfaction with her purchases, and ever-growing closet, Carver created Project 333. In this book, she guides readers through their closets item-by-item, sifting through all the emotional baggage associated with those oh-so strappy high-heel sandals that cost a fortune but destroy your feet every time you walk more than a few steps to that extensive collection of never-worn little black dresses, to locate the items that actually look and feel like you. As Carver reveals in this book, once we finally release ourselves from the cyclical nature of consumerism and focus less on our shoes and more on our self-care, we not only look great we feel great-- and we can see a clear path to make other important changes in our lives that reach far beyond our closets. With tips, solutions, and a closet-full of inspiration, this life-changing minimalist manual shows readers that we are so much more than what we wear, and that who we are and what we have is so much more than enough.

**THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** "The Minimalists show you how to disconnect from our conditioned material state and reconnect to our true essence: love people and use things. This is not a book about how to live with less, but about how to live more deeply and more fully." —Jay Shetty, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Like a Monk AS SEEN ON THE NETFLIX DOCUMENTARIES MINIMALISM & LESS IS NOW How might your life be better with less? Imagine a life with less: less stuff, less clutter, less stress and debt and discontent—a life with fewer distractions. Now, imagine a life with more: more time, more meaningful relationships, more growth and contribution and contentment—a life of passion, unencumbered by the trappings of the chaotic world around you. What you’re imagining is an intentional life. And to get there, you’ll have to let go of some clutter that’s in the way. In Love People, Use Things, Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus move past simple decluttering to show how minimalism makes room to reevaluate and heal the seven essential relationships in our lives: stuff, truth, self, money, values, creativity, and people. They use their own experiences—and those of the people they have met along the minimalist journey—to provide a template for how to live a fuller, more meaningful life. Because once you have less, you can make room for the right kind of more.
