5 myths about minimalism (that are simply NOT true)

Let's bust some common myths about minimalism! These stereotypes about minimalism are completely untrue, and yet many minimalists (including myself) face these quite regularly! :) So here's a video addressing these common misconceptions about minimalism.

    Which of these myths have you encountered as a minimalist? Or which one of these myths did you believe to be true as a non-minimalist? 😉

    Hey Anitha !! I just came across your channel and you are doing a fabulous work !! You busted my myths about minimalism and and I consider mental decluttering is the main one and physically I already have very few items to get rid off !! So you have brought about much clarity and coherence to my being !! Thanks and love to see more of your content

    Nice ideas :) .... I feel minimalism can be better described as "living consciously with lot of compassion for entire humanity (that includes animals, plants, non living being, and actually the entire planet)".

    Nice Video. I am born minimalist. People think I am stingy, disinterested, etc. I keep only those things that are really necessary i.e., more of Needs and less of Wants. Good to explain some of the myths about minimalism. Well Done and Wish you well.

    for me as a muslim, minimalist approach means simple living, not buying impulsively, buying comfort and quality instead of quantity. and when a person asked Prophet Mohammad that i am rich and i spend on others but i also like to buy something for me, what should i buy for myself some luxurious items (more than the basics) that is not included in "fazol kharchi" (impulsive and extra expenditure) the Prophet replied, invest in a good carriage/transport and invest in a good helper ❤

    Minalism is what most productive people do. That’s natural for them. I practice it without knowing that I am a ‘minimalist’ . My wife is even strict minimalist. And more productive.

    Minimalism is about ascertaining objects of no utility in your life and throwing it away along with the unhealthy attachments we have with them, it's not about living like a homeless ghost :P

    I don’t think these are ‘myths’. These appear as ‘myths’ for you because you are not a minimalist. What you do is what most sensible Indians do. I do it for years, without claiming to be a minimalist. My wife does it to perfection. For your information, and for your viewers information let me post below the video of a true minimalist.
