Thoreau Center Brown Bag: Simplicity: A Holistic Approach to Fulfillment

Free Seminar - Simplicity: A Holistic Approach to Fulfillment

Presenter: Laura Edwards, Simplicity Consultant

Wednesday, February 17, 12:30p to 1:30p

Pacific Room at Tides

At the heart of the Simplicity Movement is the desire to reorient our lives away from the minutiae of modern life and create space for simple pleasures. Rather than just continually organizing stuff, we are seeking to shift the entire approach to how we acquire, receive and experience the people, places and things in our life. This workshop is designed to give you tangible steps to begin phasing in room for peace. We will cover:

• Acquiring things and experiences and how to manage the inflow
• Letting go, purging, and organizing necessities
• The three traps of modern life and how to eliminate them

"As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler; solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness weakness." --Henry David Thoreau
