Four MORE Ways to Practice Simple Living — Ep. 22

Posted on by Katie Coughran

For me, Minimalism and Simple Living are interconnected. We practice both and they’re slowly becoming equally important because they compliment each other and our life goals so well. I’ve already done an episode (episode #5) on simple living practices, but it’s so important, I had to create another.

Here’s the Fabled Podcast where I first heard about time in nature proven to lower cortisol levels. Be sure to check out her other stuff. It’s AMAZING, and I’m not just saying that.

The Science Daily Article I found after hearing the Fabled Podcast episode can be FOUND HERE.
