How Minimalists Spend their Sundays: 8 Tips

2020-03-03 Mama Minimalist

Have you ever wondered what seasoned minimalists do on the weekend? Here’s a top-secret minimalist tip: It isn’t all rest and relaxation.

While minimalists believe simplicity is important – and while Sunday is indeed *the* day to rest – minimalists also know it’s prudent to spend weekends quietly preparing for the upcoming week.

On this week’s show I’m thrilled to offer 8 minimalist tips that mitigate weekday mania and usher in easy-breezy simplicity during the workweek. My suggestions aren’t overly taxing or burdensome, either: after completion, you can get right back into Weekend Mode in 20 minutes or less.

Enjoy!
