Do you need sound or silence? Some things to think about:

1. How do you react to organized sound? (i.e. music, singing, etc.)

2. How do you react to unorganized sound? (i.e. clanking, loud crowds, off-tune music)

3. How do you react to silence?

4. Can you change your mood by changing your "sound setting"?

Do you ever feel like a thousand different things are happening at once? Like your five senses are constantly being triggered? A shift to a minimalist lifestyle (or at least a minimalist headspace) can help with sensory overload.

Sensory integration issues can also be improved with noise-canceling headphones. Physically tuning out sound can help your cognition and improve focus.

Let's talk about minimalism. A minimalist lifestyle is focused on consuming less and living with more specific, meaningful items in your life.

While you might see some immediate benefits on your bank statement, your mental health will also thank you! The decluttering of our homes and living spaces will also declutter our minds. Improve your headspace with fewer decisions and fewer distractions.

Happy Trails!

Boundaries make the best neighbors. Here are some Tips from the Trail if you need some fence-mending:

1. Consider how you do boundaries. Is your fence line too flexible? Is it too rigid?

2. Notice how you interact with your loved ones and colleagues. Are you the easy-going guy? Or are you known as the “my way or the highway” person? I’m not saying one is better than the other, I’m just suggesting the flexion and tension ratio in our fences significantly impact our relationships. We have to come to awareness before we can make a change.

3. Talk to a friend or family member about what boundaries mean to them. You might be surprised what you can learn from others when we broach these types of topics.

It's important to build and maintain your boundaries. Check in on your "fences" from time to time. How is the tension? How is the flexion?

Read up on our newest blog (🔗 in bio) for more on building better boundaries.

Happy Trails!

Ending relationships can be a tough road to navigate. We found a great article by Joshua Becker on Becomingminimalist.com where Josh discusses "never having to cross the street."

In brief, are you conducting yourself in a way where you won't have to cross the street if you see the other person? (See our last post!)

Happy Trails and Happy Friday!

It can be tough navigating the end of a relationship. If you find yourself in an ethical dilemma, try this technique!

The "don't cross the street" mindset applies to professional relationships, friendships, and romantic relationships.

Happy trails!

We all witnessed the saga of Mikaela Shiffrin unfold over the past week. Mikaela was considered a frontrunner in her Olympic skiing event and faced intense scrutiny when she error'd on her run. Simone Biles, who also faced similar scrutiny during the Summer Games, supported Mikaela.

It's important for us to celebrate others’ successes rather than reveling in their demise or defeat. Extend kindness!

Happy Trails :)
