Simblifying life

Ever since I took to yoga around 2008, the theme of Simple Living has been orbiting in many of the things we did in the way we live. and this is an attempt to journal our experiences.

I have been thinking of making this article complete before posting it, and that was an absolute non starter. And hence this attempt to plunge in to writing, post it and build it along. So, this blog will remain an incomplete work, forever!

Let me start with some bullets on the actions we have taken so far. We realized that one thread in simblification is reduction... so, what have reduced over the past few years on this journey.

• Sold off the dining table, so we can sit down and have our food
• Gave away the RO, and went back to boiling, filtering the water and storing this in a mud pot
• Stored away the Microwave - Don't have the heart to even gift this to anyone
• Stopped using soap (barring really exceptional days), and instead use Multani Mitti, Shikakai.
• Stopped taking bags (esp polythene bags), and instead carrying our cloth bags when going to the market
•
