HELLO AND WELCOME!

Hi, I’m Antonia and welcome to Balance Through Simplicity. This is a website and personal blog filled with practical inspiration to simplify your life and create time, space and freedom for what really matters to you through simple and intentional living.

Life is full of ups and downs and we all do our best to navigate the challenges of daily life but it’s not always easy is it?

That’s why I created this website to share my thoughts and tips on how I simplified my life over a decade ago in case they might help you too.

You can read more about me and my story over here.

FINDING BALANCE THROUGH SIMPLICITY

Simplicity is not a magic wand to make life easy but I do believe it is the key to a life that’s full of what matters and less of what doesn’t.

If you’ve ever felt tired, run down, stressed out, overstretched, overwhelmed, frustrated, resentful or that getting through life is like wading through treacle, then it may be time for a fresh perspective and to make changes.

Modern life is busy, chaotic and pulls us in every direction, but I believe that we can do many things to ease the mental load, reduce our stress and find more joy, purpose and direction. Or, to use the name of my website, perhaps it’s how we can find a better balance through simplicity!

MY MESSAGE

I believe that clearing our clutter in all its shapes and forms, although not easy, has some great benefits.

Here are some articles to help you declutter:

Seeing and feeling the benefit of less clutter in our homes could encourage you to explore how less can be more in other areas of your life. Minimalism is the ‘label’ I hesitantly use for this approach because I don’t like the name (or the negativity it commonly receives) but I love the principles and values it embraces.

Here are some articles on the kind, gentle and warm-hearted minimalism I like:

MORE ON THE BLOG

Simplifying life isn’t just about the topics I’ve mentioned above. You can discover more about simplifying your own life in different ways on the blog where there are hundreds of articles to explore!

I also write about self-care, minimalist wardrobe tips, time management and intentional living. Underpinning all these is the common theme of making life easier by removing clutter and distraction and focusing on what matters to YOU.

And, if you’re struggling and don’t know where or how to start, then that’s ok. Plenty of people feel like that, including myself in the beginning, and that’s why I began this blog. Please know that you’re not alone!
