This past week, I finished one of the most stressful books that I have ever read. Why we sleep by Matthew Walker. This non-fiction book goes through the biological basis of why we sleep taking us through from baby to adulthood. It delves into what a lack of sleep can do to your body and …
Whilst slowly (very slowly) trying to make better swaps for the existing items that I'm using, I wanted to summarise where I'm currently at and what I've been really liking and what hasn't worked. I feel that there is overwhelming pressure to like environmentally friendly products and this guilt for not using or buying these …

When I started looking into minimalism about 7 years ago, I thought it was about owning 1 pair of jeans, 2 pairs of shoes and getting rid of all the clothes that you haven't worn in the past 12 months. I studied capsule wardrobes and looked into mine with confusion on how I could make …
