Episode 514. Learn to Travel Light in Life with Light Watkins

Do you ever feel so stressed that you just want to stop? We’ve all been there. Burnout is a real thing that happens to anyone and everyone, especially when we’re burdened by so many responsibilities. People’s advice is usually to start mindfulness and meditation — but be honest, did this really work out for you? Chances are, you think meditation is all about carving a big chunk of your time for it.

In today's episode, Light Watkins is here to finally set things straight about mindfulness. Spiritual minimalism is all about ‘traveling light’ without internal baggage and becoming more attuned to your intuition. This means becoming aware of your day-to-day life, not an hour-long meditation session.

If you’re struggling with internal baggage and want to finally be free from them, this episode is for you!

Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover how to travel light and what spiritual minimalism means. Understand the importance of listening to your intuition and how to use the split test to assess whether it’s your intuition's voice or just noise. Learn how to practice spiritual minimalism in other areas of your life like walking, laundry, and even packing for travels! Episode Highlights:
