Minimalism: Beyond the KonMari method

I have been following Marie Kondo (KonMari) on Instagram since I started out my minimalism journey a year ago. She has published two best-selling books entitled The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Spark Joy. I loved her idea of decluttering – thanking the things that have served you one way or another, before […]

Keto: Bulletproof Coffee

One of the most important things you need when doing Keto is Bulletproof Coffee. This is the best way to start your day and I personally take this in replacement of breakfast.
