Yes it's been work to tackle the challenge of living simply. To rewire your thinking, change your habits, most decisions have three fold meaning, I am trying zero waste living but that is impossible and time consuming. All I can do it just recycle and reuse. It feels like a spiral and to throw in my minimalistic tendencies I feel like living in Zen like home in Japan would be my answer. Has anyone been there or experience Japanese home traditions, like taking your shoes off etc.We now have a baby and I buy used and toys too. So I am waiting for inspiration in continuing my journey which sometimes isnt so simple or practical. Lately I leaning to what is easiest.Any similar experiences?
