The blog will pick a word of the week, to share & explore the selected word. Here’s an expression for the word – minimalism. Minimalism is a creative trend in art, design, business, architecture or music. The term minimalist refers to anything that is spare or stripped to its essentials with the void & free spaces. Less is more describes its core philosophy. Natural elements strive to convey the concept of simplicity & the essence of simple living for ones looking to de-stress, de-clutter, re-build or re-organise for a greater sense of fulfilment, calm, clarity & contentment. Simplicity is extremely important for happiness.
The minimalist lifestyle inspires us to simplify all aspects of our life to achieve a sense of peace, positivity & purpose. Aesthetically, minimalism offers a highly purified form of beauty. “Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in our world, it is the last limit experience & the last effort of genius” – George Sand. “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” – Leonardo da Vinci. “Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify, simplify!” – Henry David Thoreau. “The simplest things are often the truest” – Richard Bach.

She has created a signature de-cluttering & organisation process that promotes sustainability with a soothing space or lifestyle. Shira re-defines minimalism as having the perfect amount of everything. Shares a toolkit built around 5 key principles – Clarify, Edit, Organise, Elevate & Maintain. The most important thing we can do is start small. Small steps, small victories, achieved one at a time snowball into massive transformations.
