12 Reasons to Become a Minimalist
With the recent rise of minimalism, it's easy to view minimalism as just another fad. It can seem like a trendy, transient, millennial topic that doesn't have much significance and might not be around all that long. However, while there may be some people who have jumped on the minimalist bandwagon purely because it's popular, many of us truly value minimalism and hope to continue to live minimalistic lives even if it goes out of style.

Insomnia: What Brought Me Here?
It all started when I was very young; going to preschool is when I first remember it happening. The night terrors, the old hag*, being completely frightened and trying to scream, but I was paralyzed. Night after night, this is what my life was. I would finally gain control, scream for my mom or run into her room and go to sleep with her. Dream catchers, counting sheep, bibles under my pillow, NOTHING, and I mean nothing, worked. It wasn’t until I was about 12 when I started developing stranger sleeping patterns.

Plants That Help You Breathe
The introduction of plants into your home, although isn’t a recent one, is becoming increasingly popular for more than its aesthetics. For centuries plants have been used for a variety of medicinal purposes, including breathing conditions such as asthma and bronchitis. Nowadays, with the increase of smaller living spaces, modern high rise building blocks, air conditioning, plug in air fresheners filled with chemicals, as well as our hard and soft furnishings being made from synthetic materials, good air flow, and protection from indoor air pollution is seen as somewhat hard to come by.

Does a Healthy Body Lead to a Healthy Mind?
What Is A Clouded Brain And What Causes It In today's society people have so much going on in life outside of work, and at work. The things that they have going on can be stressful, and this stress can be positive or negative. There are things that people can do to clear their mind and remove the stress. No one is above getting a cluttered or stressed mind where you just can't seem to focus on anything. This unclear mind is not usually caused by one thing, but it is caused by a mixture of things.

The Benefits of Incorporating a Healthy Lifestyle
"The mind and body are not separate. What affects one affects the other"—Anonymous I came across these lines while scrolling through my social media posts and I couldn't agree more. In order to achieve our long-term body goals, we have to understand that change does not occur in one night. We will have to adopt a healthy lifestyle if we want our fitness to last long. While some of us join a gym or go for any other physical activity easily, others find it hard to adopt a certain fitness regimen in their daily lives. Worse yet, there are those who pay the membership fees but are unwilling or unmotivated to go to the gym. Lastly, there are those who find it hard to make healthier choices and go for fad diets and end up ruining their appetite. If that is your case too, then fret no more. The main aim of writing this article is to reach out and connect with people who love fitness and are health conscious but need motivation, support and guidance to follow through their lifestyle changes. Being a fitness instructor myself and someone who lost 40 kg weight over the course of time whilst battling my health issues and incorporating a healthy lifestyle, I know exactly what the challenges are and how to overcome bumps in the road to achieve fitness goals.
