Simply...City
"There is more to life than increasing its speed." - Gandhi
Do you sometimes feel like your life is too rushed or too complicated? Do you find yourself longing for a simpler time?
Wikipedia says, "Simplicity is the property, condition or quality of being simple or un-combined. It often denotes beauty, purity or clarity. Simple things are usually easier to explain and understand than complicated ones. Simplicity can mean freedom\from hardship,\effort or confusion. It can also mean adopting a simpler lifestyle."
There is a plethora of information being thrown at us everyday, options galore and pressure to buy more stuff and do more things. We are overloaded with decisions that have to be made. Even if you're an info junkie or someone who thrives on options, there is benefit in slowing down and simplifying your life, even if only occasionally. Simplifying your life - internally and externally - can free up space and time for you and can lead to more joy and more Flow. There are many ways to simplify your life.
Here are just a few:
- Limit stuff to what you need and cherish.
- Spend time in nature instead of at the mall.
- Clear out clutter (internally and externally).
- Be willing to say "no".
- Get help - pay others to do some of your chores so that you can have more leisure time.
- Eat simply and healthy.
- Release complicated, unhealthy relationships.
- Let go of worrying about the future and "be here now".
What could you change/release in your life to create more simplicity?

Dance party, anywhere.
3. To avoid jet lag, get plenty of exercise the day before you travel.
And once you land, get lots of fresh air for an instant pick-me-up.
4. To avoid tangling, thread a straw with your delicate necklaces.

And when you’re wearing the necklace, you have a straw. SCORE.
5. Most airplanes have a little hook at your seat. AMAZING.

Perfect for a small bag or coat. What’s next…a tray. Wait? That’s a TRAY!?!?
6. Pack your dirty shoes in a shower cap.
Ain’t no one got time for dirty shoes.
7. Pack a light-weight scarf for chilly planes.

You can use it as a little blanket or
a pillow. Once you arrive at your destination you have the perfect
accessory to spice up any outfit.
9. Contact containers are great for storing cosmetics.
Perfect for touch-ups!
10. Stash extra cash in an empty lip balm.
You’ve already filled your contact case with lip balm. So keeping money in the empty lip balm only makes sense.
12. Always make left turns in the security line to get through more quickly.

Science proves it.
