In our modern, consumerist society we've been sold the lie that a good life is found in accumulating things — in possessing as much as possible.

They keep telling us that more is better and that if we can simply afford to buy more nice things, we can be happier.

But they’re wrong.

Embracing minimalism gives us freedom from this consuming passion to possess as many things as we can.

In this video, we'd like to introduce you to the 7 essential principles of the minimalist philosophy so you can understand more in-depth how less is actually more, and free yourself from the mentality that you're not enough if you don't have a lot of possessions.
