First I brush my teeth. Then I write three pages of "morning pages." I sit on my yoga mat and meditate. Usually ranges around 5 to 10 mins. (I'm hoping to extend that) Then I do yoga for only about 15 mins. (Hoping to extend that too).

Then I continue with my day. Feed the cat. Get ready for work. (I don't eat breakfast until I get to work)

I'd love to add in reading and some outdoor type thing like a walk in the park but its still dark when I get up and that would be dangerous.

Just go, cold turkey. Right now even though I don't have a tv, I do have hulu and netflix. But years ago I went six months with no tv at all, no hulu...just cold turkey. And it was probably one of the most enligthening times of my life. I read more. I had deeper conversations. It was just a different experience. I'm thinking now of limiting my hulu and netflix intake even.

To help the transition take on a different hobby or class or bake a cake from scratch. Just do something difference.

At first you will miss the tv and then you'll get to a point where you just don't even care anymore.

I always have bulk of baking soda...I use it to clean everything with homemade concoctions.

There's also always a jug of vinegar and castile soap.
There's also always brown and raw sugar. I use it for baking but also for body products.
And I have an overflowing basket of essential oisl that I put in everything from cleaning products to hair products to laundry to anything.

This is simply amazing! Thanks for this information! Wish I had known about it. Although in my last move I used bins since my belongings were in storage for a month and I wanted to protect them. But for my last few moves I've used boxes and buying them is painful because I only throw them away after if I can't find anyone else to give them too.

I defintely use the rule that if I buy an article of clothing, I have to give an article of clothing away. When its hard to really give something away..since I truly love everything in my closet, I give it to a family member like a younger sister or friend. That way I know its with someone that I know and somehow it makes me feel better.

As far as shopping, I keep a list of things I need to buy from shelves for the living room wall to paper towels. If its not on that list, I do not buy it. And once its one the list, if its not essential like toilet paper, I sort of wait a bit to see if I still feel the same way a week later or a month later.

Because I write, do collages and all sorts of other creative projects, I try to scan in as much stuff as possible to keep the paper in my apt to a minimal. It's challenging though.

Currently I have a couple bins that are set to go to goodwill but I can't find the time to drop them off. Neither do I have a car to do so. Sometimes I just want to trash it all to get it out of my site. But i don't. Because that would be horrible. But what can I do when I don't even have time to drop donations off?

Very serene. I really like this one. And I love the white picket fence.

I love the kitchen. And the kids room is fun.

I purchased this one from Ikea. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S19840969

I like this a lot. Very creative. Shows you that thinking outside the box can get you exactly what works for you.

Its intriguing but I feel as if the weight of some of my work might crush. I'm guessing they designed it to hold up to the pressure though.
