Essentialism: Mind, Body and Soul

World Happiness Fest - Unlocking the power of Belonging Nov 20-21, 2020

** Essentialism (not minimalism) for your mind, body and soul**
My exploratory search on the road to productivity and happiness with what truly matters — finding time and space with mindfulness: sleep, balanced nutrition, exercise, and memory. We often measure our success by the amount of things that we have — the materialistic things. Our life is much more than that, it’s the cherished memories that we hold near and dear to our hearts.

** Mindfulness: Mind, Body and Soul (Sleep, Nutrition, Exercise and Memory) **
And this was what essentialism started becoming for me: it wasn’t just about sleep or a diet that I couldn’t keep or a promise to exercise every day — it was finding balance in the way that it was my own.

** Find your Rhythm: Meaning, Purpose and Belonging **
I knew if I did the same thing as before, I would be having the same outcomes. I have to change what I do, so I can find true meaning, purpose and belonging. So I encourage everyone to not just be busy but be mindful about the things that really matter.

Ask the question: “Why do you do what you do and does it really matter”?
