How to Simplify Your Life | A Monk's Guide

What do you do when life gets a bit too complicated and stressful? In this video, I use the wisdom of the Buddhist monk training to talk about intentional living and going back to the basics. Many times, we suffer because we lose focus of why we do the things that we do and also the original intent with the things in our daily lives. I hope this video gives you a starting point to looking at your own life and give you some ideas on how to go back to living with intention. #monks #minimalism #intentional
