Advertise on podcast: Radical Simple Living

Many of you know about my accident earlier this year. This episode tells you all about it, and my slow recovery. Back to normal  podcasts next time.

In this episode we look at if we can learn about simple living from these two groups. Turns out, a lot!

Distributism may be a tricky word, but many think it's the way forward. If you've ever thought that you'd be happier living in a Hobbit hole - then here's the system that might help you get there!

The Arts and Crafts Movement had a lasting effect on many aspects of modern life. In this episode we focus on the home, and the garden, of the simple home and how the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement can provide us with inspiration.

To keep you motivated in your aim of a simpler lifestyle, you need to keep yourself provided with inspiration, direction, new ideas, and new ways to live. This episode discusses how to stop cherry picking, and how to start gold mining.

I've been away for some time - why?

We all develop a "self image" of ourselves which evolves throughout our lives. Defining ourselves gets complicated because we spend so much time trying or being what others expect of us. The years pass and we may find that our self image has become blurred or even lost altogether. By adopting a more simple lifestyle we may go some way to finding who we "really are".

Our families, and our communities, all have traditions. Does living a simple life mean you have to embrace these traditions, or can you let them wither? Do traditions have any relevance or purpose in a simple life?

All of us can make changes to our lifestyle to live more simply, but what about the community you live in, and your online community and the country that you are based in? Sending out ripples can work!

Planning is important, but vision is more important still. Simple living will involve you in using vision to help secure your future.

Simple living involves solving some of life's problems, in fact any kind of living involves solving problems. Abraham Maslow might just help us out on this one!

In this episode I discuss your relationship with the land. Even if you don't own land, this relationship is one of the most crucial factors in your life! Also, the terrible crime of wasting the land - it's happening all around us!

In this episode I use a tartan to explain all about agrarianism! You will need to listen to find out more.https://youtu.be/UQ9NaqjeDGU?si=kp53rP61Vz3QOHHn

We are all influenced, from cradle to grave, but between those two landmarks we need to take control ourselves and keep influencers at arm's length!

We all complain that we don't have enough time, but are we putting off things that we need urgently to do?
