[Interview] Travel Light: How Spiritual Minimalism Can Help Us Live a More Fulfilled Life (feat. Light Watkins)

<p>The “back to basics” lifestyle has recently gained popularity worldwide. “Going minimalist” and getting rid of possessions simplify our lives and give us time to focus on what matters.</p> <p>Yet as exciting as it can be to whittle down our belongings, does it really bring happiness?</p> <p>My guest Light Watkins believes that it won’t unless we do the inner work to cultivate happiness on the inside. He’s here to tell us more about his philosophy.</p> <p>Light Watkins has been active in the wellness space since 1998, first as a practitioner, later as an apprentice to his Vedic Meditation teacher, and finally, in 2007, as a meditation teacher himself. He became nomadic in 2018 and now travels the world giving talks on happiness, mindfulness, inspiration, and meditation. He writes articles on meditation and happiness, leads sold-out meditation training and retreats, and produces The Shine—a global pop-up inspirational variety show with a mission to inspire.</p> <p>During our discussion, Light introduces us to an “inside-out” path to getting rid of inner clutter and living a more fulfilled life. Spiritual Minimalism, as he calls it, will get you aligned with your values and lead you to a life-changing adventure.</p>
