Minimalism in the Workspace

Whatever kind of work you do, in this episode I’m walking you through several ways you can bring minimalism to work. After all, many people spend almost as many hours doing their work as they spend on their personal lives. I hope these tips help you to have a more productive and peaceful workspace.

Listen to the episode by hitting the play button or scroll down to read the article.

Today, I want to talk about minimalism in workspaces, but talking about minimalism and an office space isn’t broad enough, but I also can’t possibly talk about every type of different work and how to apply minimalism to that particular area. I decided to break it up into a few different areas. I hope you find these tips helpful!

At Work, In Person:

This may sound basic, but keep your drawers nicely sorted. It’s hard because you’re working and taking the time to tidy up might even be frowned upon. In the end, though, it’ll make you better able to work efficiently, so spending a little time outside of work hours will end up helping you to work more quickly and have a more enjoyable space.

On a similar note, keep your desktop sorted out! Ask yourself, “What do I really need and want on my desk?” From there, you can decide how many photos and desk toys you want. I know from experience that shuffling things around your desk isn’t productive.

If you need organizing tools, get them…but only if you actually have thought about it and determined that you need them. It’s easy to have a space full of organizers without being organized at all.

If there’s a lot of drama at work, choose carefully who you spend optional time with. On the other hand, find those people that are uplifting and eat your lunch or collaborate with them as much as possible. Yes, your desk space is important, but your head space and choosing to fill it with either negativity or positivity is way more important. Negativity is the worst kind of clutter.

Driving for Work/Commuter Tips:

Spending a lot of time in a vehicle can lead to a lot of garbage tucked into door pockets and cup holders. Having a system for your garbage is essential! Keep a bin, bag, or garbage gadget in your car so it’s easy to toss your apple cores.

There’s a rule in hiking; “Pack it in, pack it out.” The same applies to vehicles—if you pack it in, pack it out. Don’t leave garbage or objects behind, no matter how tired you are after your day of hard work.

Don’t forget to wash the outside of your vehicle! It can be a challenge—especially if you drive a commercial vehicle—but it’ll make you feel great to drive a rig that’s clean inside and out.

Find ways to eat healthfully while you’re on the road. It’s already a sedentary life to be driving and sitting so much, eating unhealthy junk foods all day doesn’t help. Minimalism has been a big help when it comes to travel and packing foods for my husband—we keep it simple and healthy, which saves food and menu prep time. I’ve been making myself 1-2 things at the beginning of the week so I can save food prep time and it’s been an awesome way to allow myself to have more time to write and podcast instead of spending that time on cooking or opting to grab something unhealthy, instead.

Working at Home

If you’re working an office Job at home, what do you really need on your desk and in your space? Also, since you’re working from home, I’m assuming you have at least a teeny bit more control of your space than when you’re at an office building. How can you be happier in your space? Better lighting? Tidying your home the night before? Take advantage of being the decider of your office space so you can add to your happiness.

If you’re working at home as a homemaker, what tools do you need? I know that as the keeper of budgets, schedules, activities, menus, etc., I have things I NEED, but don’t often treat myself to. It’s wrong and I’m working on it. Need an hour so you can take care of your budget? Schedule it in. Need a desk drawer so you can have a place to keep your tools? Re-organize the desk. Almost every type of work requires some type of tool, so making sure you have what you need as the home maker is important. With the wide variety within the many areas we manage, it’s impossible to do it well without having the essentials.

Put your work away when you’re done. While we spend a good part of our lives at our work, our home life is more important and where we can take care of ourselves, reenergize, and spend time with loved ones. No need to keep our work out on our desk or other areas; this visual will only nag at us and keep our minds from relaxing into our home life.

Minimalist Challenge: Ask yourself, “What’s one thing that bothers me about my work area?” Maybe it’s your cluttered desk, unorganized pantry, or trash in your vehicle. Whatever the case, spend ten minutes working on it during your lunch or after work hours until you’ve got it the way you want it.

Good luck with your workspace and remember, it’s all about the experiences, not the stuff.

This Week’s Minimalist and Simple Living Happenings

I’m amazed at how long it takes to adjust to getting into a different type of lifestyle flow. When we’re on the road in the summertime, everything is really spontaneous—we don’t make reservations months or even weeks in advance, we hardly know where we’re going when we set out, and we’re pretty much just looking for the next place we’ll find beauty and adventure. 

Is there hard work involved? Absolutely! But because of the circumstances and fun, it doesn’t always feel like hard work. As soon as we pull into a stationary spot I can deeply feel the hard work of getting into a routine. Once again, this last week has been all about getting into a routine.

Home school has been going great, though getting into the flow of THIS type of concentrated learning has been challenging for the kids. I like to have Monday-Thursday set up to work a little harder and have Fridays be a bit more chill and ready for a field trip. By the time Friday came this week, we were definitely ready to chill! It made me realize I’ve got a little more adjusting I need to do to our schedule.

Each week we have a family night where we try to do something fun together. This week I suggested we head to the park and play. Our daughter brought her frisbee and our son brought a toy parachute man and between those two things and the playground, we had a great time. Simple and sweet, but it was the highlight of my week.

My husband has been growing his hair out and wanted some Rambands. Instead of buying them or asking me to make them, he got fabric and asked me to teach him to make them. We had a fun date night of me bossing him around the sewing machine while The Office was on in the background. He’s pretty good with a sewing machine!

I’m always on the look-out for ways I can help the kids expand their skills without purchasing too much stuff. I’ve loved the look of macrame pieces for a long time and decided I wanted to learn, so I watched a billion YouTube videos and bought a spool of rope. I taught the kids the history of macrame and we each made a piece for home school on Friday. It was really fun and I love the way my first attempt turned out! Also, because you only NEED rope (all the other accessories for macrame are optional), I feel like it’s a very minimalist hobby/skill.

Since we’re stationary, I’ve been trying to take more time to organize and do some deeper cleaning. During the summer on the road, it’s pretty hard to give up a hike in a national park so I can wipe down cabinets. This week I got to several projects, but my favorite was the large and deep cabinet beneath the kitchen sink. A potato-gone-horribly-wrong turned my attention/nose to this area, but by the time I was done cleaning it, I was happy I’d somehow lost track of that lone potato. 

Those are definitely my favorite minimalist and simple living happenings this week. What about you? What minimalistic or simple living practices made you happy this week?

Four Quick Chores that Keep Your Home Tidy

If you’ve listened to this podcast even somewhat regularly, you’ll know that I hate cleaning. This is especially tedious for me when the mess has built up, so I’ve learned to not let that happen. Even if I can’t get to the bigger daily chores, these are the few things we do almost every single day to ensure our home stays pleasant and manageable.

Click the play button to listen to the episode, or scroll down to read all about it.

1. Deal with mail right away. Not only does this lower our stress because it’s not hanging out where we can see it, nagging at us to take care of it, but having a tidy space also lowers our stress. Recycle flyers and ads, then file mail that needs to be taken care of another day. If you don’t give it a home, its home will be whatever surface is closest to the front door.

2. Put your keys/purse/wallet/backpack away as soon as you enter. It takes so little time, but the tiny bit of extra effort will make your home a more pleasant space.

3. Empty your dish drainer or dishwasher right as soon as soon as your dishes are dry. This always inspires me to cook better foods and makes me a happier person in the kitchen. Plus, it just looks nicer.

4. Do a nightly clean sweep. It’s one of the easiest ways to keep your home clean. Taking 5-10 minutes to pick up all the little stuff that’s quick and easy to put away is pretty simple and a great habit. If you have others living in the home, try to get them to help out! It’s so nice to wake up to a clean home in the morning.

These four things won’t make your home perfect, nor will they necessarily help you to downsize, but they are great at maintaining the hard work you’ve already done. If you’re home right now, I challenge you to quickly do one of these things. If you’re not home, do one of them as soon as you walk in the door.

Remember, it’s all about the experiences, not the stuff.

This Week’s Minimalist and Simple Living Happenings

This past week has been all about settling back into the PNW, home schooling, and all the things that come with being stationary in an RV. It’s been a bit of an adjustment, but when we’re practicing simple living, things always go more smoothly. Here are our happenings for the past week:

I spent a slow Saturday really thinking about all things How to be a Minimalist as well as my other author works and where they’re going. Before each quarter of the year comes to an end, I tend to do this, hoping to get clarity on what I want to accomplish during the upcoming three months. Feels good to have a refreshed plan. Sometimes it’s hard to take alone time when we’re on the road, so this was a much-needed day for me.

My husband and I watched a couple of episodes of Unsolved Mysteries. I wanted to watch the rest of The Game Changers, but whatever! It was still a fun little date night.

I used up some food from the pantry and freezer. It felt good to use some things that had been tucked back, but also to make space. With all of these blackberries everywhere, I’m hoping I can pick some for the freezer and make some jam as well.

Since many of our home school curriculum books are on back order or are taking a really long time to ship, I designed fun, simple, creative school plans for the week and also took the opportunity to use some books we already have. Going through our books so thoroughly made me realize we’ve already got a lot we can use, so I’ll be holding off on ordering most things for a bit so we can use up what we’ve got.

Pandora Disney channel, anyone? That’s what my kids turned on all week while playing board games. I now know music from movies I’ve never seen, ha!

We decided to cancel two subscriptions this week. Not only will we save money, but we don’t need to be wasting time using these services.

Now that we have electricity all the time, I’ve played the piano (weighted electric keyboard) several evenings. It’s relaxing and therapeutic at the same time, plus, I think it’s a calming sound to help the kids fall asleep and bring peace in our home. My kids started lessons with me again, so we’ll all be playing the piano a lot more often!

Between the cooler weather and having access to electricity at all times, I’ve been using my Instant Pot SO MUCH MORE. It’s awesome to be able to whip something up so quickly. Beans, rice, soups, and stews have all been so tasty this week.

What about you? What have you done to practice minimalism and simple living this week?

Four Minimalist Wardrobe Tips for the Changing Weather Seasons

Ditching and donating when the weather seasons are changing is a great way to work on downsizing. Not only are you more easily able to see what you haven’t worn and can donate those pieces, but going through your clothing can help you to be more selective about what you bring in for the coming season.

Click the play button, or read all about it down below:

1. When looking at your clothing as the seasons are changing, ask yourself what will work for the next season? Most people have at least a few pieces that work year-round. Using these same pieces all year means you need less season-specific clothing and your closet can be a little more minimalistic.

2. If possible, keep your clothes in one closet. If you can do this, instead of packing away off-season clothes, you’ll have a better idea of how much clothing you ACTUALLY have. It’s all too easy to pick up a piece or two here and there until you have many more items than you’d actually like to own.

3. Ask yourself, What do I really need? Lay out and/or try on all of your clothing to see what works. Ditch clothing you no longer wear, then see what’s left over. Make a detailed list of exactly what else you’d like to have in your wardrobe. Include color, style, and amounts needed.

4. When you shop, don’t go looking to see what you can find. FIND WHAT’S ON YOUR LIST. It’s easy to find plenty of things we like when we go shopping. There are very few stores I’ve been to where I DIDN’T find something I liked. Those aren’t necessarily the pieces you need to make a wardrobe that makes you look and feel great, though. Be picky, take your time, and get what you want.

Good luck with your minimalist wardrobe and remember, it’s all about the experiences, not the stuff.

This Week’s Minimalist and Simple Living Happenings

I often notice the big ways in which we practice minimalism and simple living — pretty easy when you wake up in an RV each morning. However, I don’t always notice the little things.

Last week I had a few days of staying in bed (LISTEN TO THE PODCAST EPISODE FOR THE FULL STORY. Hint: strep and double ear infections are no fun) and watched my family work through our family chores as well as live without my assistance. I can’t tell you how grateful it made me that our home and calendar are easy to maintain!

As I made a mental list of the sweet and simple things we do, I realized it was yet another way to share with this community. Don’t be shy about sharing YOUR simple and minimalist living happenings—I’d love to hear about it and be inspired.

  • On the days that I could cook, I made simple, low-stress dinners.
  • We turned music on often, enjoying listening and singing/rocking out.
  • We supported a small business and were able to replace our cracked cutting board. I only keep two cutting boards and I knew my small one was about to go at any time. I’ve got a large one from this small, local business and wanted to wait until we were back in the PNW to buy a small one from him. I’m glad I waited!
  • I created our budget for September—essential for supporting our needs as well as using our resources to further our financial goals.
  • I ate clean, healthy foods for breakfast and lunch while also keeping it simple.
  • I got rid of a tiered basket we used to keep on our kitchen counter. We used it for bread and tortillas, so I simply put those things into the produce baskets (aka, my little “store” on the shelf above our table/piano) and got rid of the baskets on the kitchen counter. Now, I simply have my herb garden on the kitchen counter, my chicken timer, and my dish soap. It feels SO much more open and I love it! Space is always an issue when living in an RV, but this just feels so great, it was worth the adjustments and effort. Where there’s a will, there’s a way! I’m much happier cooking in the space, now, so it was totally a positive change.
  • My husband turned on Pride and Prejudice (CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH VERSION) the other night—I thought he was going to turn on Cobra Kai, so this was a nice surprise, ha!—and we had a spontaneous date night. I love my man.
  • I pulled out the craft supplies and my kids made some dream catchers that turned out beautifully. We don’t keep a ton of craft supplies in the RV, but it’s definitely been a major part of their growth and creativity, making them a vital part of our lives and home school.

Minimalism for Couples — Four Tips

Practicing Minimalism by yourself has its own complexities, but practicing as a couple is a completely different story. While my husband and I are now on the same page regarding minimalism — most of the time — we weren’t always, which led to both struggle and growth. These four practices have helped us to work our way through the difficult minimalist moments, as well as work on building a lifestyle we love.

Press play to listen, or read the rest of the article below.

These are our top four practices:

  1. Be respectful. First off, not only is everybody on their own path and has their own pace, but nagging about minimalism has never worked for anyone I know. YOUR kind of minimalism may not work for them, and THEIR kind of minimalism may not work for you. When it comes to personal belongings, being respectful seems to work best. Ditching/donating your own things and letting them ditch/donate/declutter their own things will likely ultimately lead to a happier home.
  2. Create a minimalist home together. When only one person is “in charge” of making the home pleasant, not only is that a lot of pressure and work, but the other person in the partnership isn’t invested. When both parts of the pair are working on creating a beautiful, minimalist home, not only does it give both people an opportunity to share in the experience, it’s likely that there won’t be resentment. Besides, it’s fun to design or create minimalist spaces together! I may not always agree with my husband’s ideas, but in the end, it’s just stuff and I love that we’ve designed our home together more than being 100% in charge.
  3. Communicate clearly about your spaces and expectations. Which surfaces are you hoping to keep clear? What are your partner’s triggers? What can you each do to contribute to the home? Communicating in a loving way will help your minimalist practices to stick and go a lot smoother as a couple.
  4. It’s not just about your space, but also about your schedule and lifestyle. People often forget that this is a major part of minimalism; it’s not just about the STUFF, but the activities you say yes to, the time you spend on hobbies, and whether you’re spending quality — and also mundane — time together.

Spending time supporting each others’ dreams, hobbies, and creating a simple-living lifestyle together has been some of the best work we’ve put into our marriage. Again, most of the time, it’s really fun, especially considering the fact that we used to spend a significant amount of time on the insignificant and — in retrospect — boring. Not only was it a waste of our lives, but we weren’t creating stronger relationship bonds. Now that we’ve refocused our goals, our life is just better. 

Minimalism as a couple hasn’t always been easy. In fact, there were several years when we really clashed and it was a major struggle to overcome. Learning to practice minimalism and incorporate it into our life has been a slow process, but absolutely worthy of our efforts.

I hope these minimalism-for-couples tips help you along your path. Remember, it’s all about the experiences, not the stuff.

4 Ways Minimalism Can Save You Money

The PRE-ORDER for How to be a Minimalist — A Beginner’s Guide is up! Click HERE to see the details. I sincerely hope you enjoy the book and thanks for supporting me/my family/my work! The ebook will be out September 1st, paperback will be out in the next month or two.

There are so many different ways minimalism has saved us money, it will be a recurring theme on this podcast. All of the emotional, mental, and spiritual benefits of minimalism are wonderful and I certainly go into some of that here. However, there’s also this other side that’s simply practicality and there’s NOTHING wrong with that. I hope you enjoy the episode (hit the play button) or feel free to read the article below.

1. Practicing Simple Living means a slower life for us, or faster paces in nature, which is often free or inexpensive. Going on a hike pretty much costs fuel and food/water and most people likely already have the necessary gear. The views, getting some exercise, accomplishing a challenge all are worth much more to me than spending ten bucks on some random item I find at the store. I’ve used the example of hiking here, but there are so many ways that living simply adds joy and beauty to our lives without expensive price tags and stuff that will ultimately become a strain on our time and space.

2. Multi-use items save both space AND money. I also find them to be more natural, which is appealing to me, personally. Do you know how many items baking soda has replaced in our home?? That stuff is amazing and really inexpensive. I also now only keep one homemade cleaner in the home instead of ten different cleaners for ten different things. Simple, inexpensive, natural — so many things I like.

3. I no longer head to the store to look for something to buy, I now go to the store to buy what I need. I have lists, I’m organized, and I avoid sections I don’t need anything from. That’s a major shift in mindset and definitely saves us money!

4. Lastly, the more I practice minimalism, the more I have an abundance mindset. Don’t get me wrong — I still struggle at times. However, in my general, daily life, I feel content with what I have and I don’t want more, which absolutely keeps me from buying more and ultimately saves money. Not only am I grateful to have what I need, but I’m happy to be able to use and enjoy my things in my uncluttered home. 

I hope these tips help and remember — it’s all about the experiences, not the stuff.
