Simplicity as a Way of Life

What does everyone want? What do we all really desire?

Is it happiness? Is it joy? Is it pleasure and excitement? Money? Love?
Wouldn’t you agree with me, if I said that what every person truly desires is the experience of pleasantness within him and around him.

Simple isn't it?

Yet here we are. Living our lives. From one struggle to the next, it seems. Chasing the feeling of happiness. Seeking the next thing that will finally bring us inner peace and satisfaction.

And this is where I believe Simplicity comes in.
Now I know that this path isn’t for everyone… and that is okay.
But I believe that many can benefit from the joys of simplicity, especially in our oversaturated world.


Simplicity is not…

I would love to start this off by telling you what simplicity is not:

  • Simplicity isn’t boring!
    It is quite the opposite. You create so much more time and space to go on adventures and really drink in the life around you with all of your senses.

  • Simplicity isn’t minimalism.
    Now of course you can combine them. I personally do. I call myself a minimalist. But I have also redefined my minimalism. I keep only things that are either essential or beautiful. I call my way of life: Beautiful minimalism.
    It allows me to keep my space clutter and distraction free. While creating a beautiful and calm atmosphere.

  • Simplicity isn’t always easy.
    When you begin a simple life-style you realise that it gives you a lot of beautiful life-experiences. But that it also requires you to be mindful and present.
    And this turns out to be the tricky part. When we practice mindfulness and presence we quickly realise that we are addicted to dopamine. To a constant rush. To the next email, the new like and the next notification. Our phones are tiny casinos, that reward us for simply checking them. I believe that our digital-lifestyles are making it a little more difficult for us to unplug and be present.
    You will quickly realise this when you embark on the journey of presence.

Simplicity is…

  • A way of life

  • A path to more freedom and sovereignty

  • A way to more joy, fulfilment, pleasure and fun!

  • A path to self-discovery and less bullshit

  • Can be a way to connect to your own truth

  • A tool to create the experiences you desire

As you can see, I’m a fan.
I see simplicity as a key to a deeply fulfilled life.
My mentor Veronie once said this:

“The truth is always simple. When it’s complex it’s not the truth.”

And I believe that this sums it up very beautifully.


If this resonated my love, then I truly encourage you to check out these two things:

  1. My newsletter.
    I share bi-weekly “shots of wisdom” and personal life-updates and thoughts.
    I don’t spam, promise. Plus you can unsubscribe whenever you like.

  2. Group-Coaching.
    This is new. I haven’t shared this one yet.
    The group coaching circle is an affordable way to work with me and connect to your inner truth (=consciously create the life that you want).
    We gather monthly to create more clarity in our hearts, to break through inner blocks and to connect with our Inner Core through open discussions, guided healing techniques, journaling prompts and much more…
    The participation is only $35 and is limited to 10 spots.

I am truly excited to have you in this space.
You are loved and appreciated.
Thank you for reading.

Love,
Nata
