1606: The Bag Lady by Chris Lovett of Minimalings on Minimalism & How To Re-examine Your Life
Chris Lovett of Minimalings shares his thoughts on the bag lady.Episode 1606: The Bag Lady by Chris Lovett of Minimalings on Minimalism & How To Re-examine Your LifeChris Lovett is a minimalist, life coach, speaker and career mentor but it didn't used to be that way. Quite content drifting through life in the comfort zone, he was collecting stuff, not exactly the stuff he wanted to collect but stuff none the less. Chris had a whole bunch of aspirations but managed to build a prison around them with a stack of unconscious decisions made down the years. His collection included debt, too many clothes, negative self fulfilling prophecies, assumptions, comparisons, unused 'just in case' items and a fixed mindset that kept me at just the right level of safe. He lived month to month but he wasn't really living at all.The original post is located here:https://www.minimalings.com/post/the-bag-ladyVisit Me Online at OLDPodcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

1601: Your Priorities Express Your Values by Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog on Mindfulness for Every Day Life
Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog shares why your priorities express your values.Episode 1601: Your Priorities Express Your Values by Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog on Mindfulness for Every Day LifeKatie Ping is a small-town writer, yogi, and mama who values simplicity. She spent decades of her life people-pleasing and drowning in guilt and shame over parts of her that she thought were unworthy. By her late-20s, she found herself passionless and riddled with anxiety - and she knew she needed a change. Instead of creating a multi-layered plan on how to attain more peace, she started small - with a walking meditation practice. Those 15 minutes of strolling in silence down a tree-lined residential street led her to where she is today - facing her fears of imperfection and doing it anyway.The original post is located here: http://moreofwhatmattersblog.com/your-priorities-express-your-values-why-more-of-what-matters-was-more-than-my-2017-mantra-and-how-it-was-the-life-changing-shift-i-needed/Visit Me Online at OLDPodcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.
