One thing that I have quit is hobbies. I have a tendency to start projects and never finish them or spend money on supplies for a project and never complete it. I have even tried to start new hobbies and just not enjoyed them as much as I thought I would. Between work and family and what I’d like to do in my free time, I have found myself happier and less stressed without the added work of a hobby. Plus it has helped my wallet, since I’m no longer wasting money on unnecessary crafts and projects. That said, there’s nothing wrong with hobbies but in this season of my life, I am better off without them.

That's such a great idea! I definitely am glad I gave up my scrapbooking hobby a while ago. I wasn't really into it any more and it took up so much space, time, and money. I still enjoy trying out new hobbies every now and then, but I feel like I know myself better now and can tell if it's something worth the space, time, and money and if not moving on keeps things much simpler. Like you said, it's all about the season of life and everyone knows their life and what the need best 😊

My tip for people wanting to do a low buy year, would be to not buy physical items that you can bring home and clutter up your space with as a starting point, so if your out and need a pick me up you could get a coffee or snack so it can give you that little boost you need without spending a small fortune. Then after a while this habit could be dropped once your use to not buying physical things all the time.

Love that idea, thanks so much! 🤍 Doing this no buy challenge this year has been so eye opening to my habits and mindset about spending and items. A lot more difficult than I thought it would be, but so thankful for all the amazing support and advice from everyone 😊

I stopped having a morning routine too. When I didn’t accomplish everything on my morning list I felt like a failure then the whole day felt that way. When I stopped trying so hard the rhythm just fell into place. I still have certain things I want to do ever morning that just make my life better but they don’t have to be done in any certain time frame or order. This just works so much better for me. I guess in essence there is no pressure or expectations.

Great ideas! I'm in a season of life with a lot of uncertainty and challenge. I've found out that going slower has really helped me. I've given up many of the things you mentioned. This means more time outside in nature, more time between commitments for daydreaming, more time taking care of my space and my body, more time soaking up on beauty and calm, more time connecting with loved ones, more time learning from others. It's a radical act to live slowly in a world that wants you to speed up 🐌

So glad you have been able to slow down and spend the time and energy on things you love! It's so true that living this slower more intentional way is radically different when the rest of the world is saying to constantly be doing more all the time 😓 Love that you are taking that time to be in nature, see loved ones, and take care of yourself! I working on continuing to find ways to do more of that in my life each day too, especially being outside! The more time I spend outside in nature the better I feel! 🤍

Watching this a few months late. If you thought winter was an adjustment just wait for summer 😂 being from Arizona you don’t know of the joy we East Coasters experience, called humidity. Take whatever the temp is an then add 20 to get what it feels like. For summer you’re going to want light breathable fabrics 😉 Summer with humidity will have you begging for winter. Fall and spring are nice though and I think fall makes summer worth it.
