Good article, thanks! k Hi Anastasiya,

I think as we awaken to our inner truth, we naturally tend towards moderation and simplicity in what we want and what we take from life.

Good article, thanks!

If our lives are simple then naturally we will be moderate with our expenditure and the stuff we buy (and even more so the stuff we don't buy). A simpler life will affect the planet less and perhaps we will even the right foods in optimal quantities. At the same time, remember that a simple life does not mean that your life becomes boring. Far from it - I live a fairly simple life but I also have a very exciting life. So go forth and live a life of simplicity and moderation - and also make it a life of joy.

Moderation does not mean that you have to stop in life and accept it the way it is. Moderation in my opinion means that you do not turn your desires and passions into obsessions. The obsession or very far extreme can knock any life out of balance. You are right, it is important to learn this skill when we are kids but even later in life we can still learn it.

To enjoy and appreciate small things in life is art of living, but that doesn't mean we should not reach for the stars!

I think moderation is even more difficult when you love what you are doing. For example sometime I find myself constantly thinking about future ideas for the posts. I keep thinking when I am playing with my girls or when I am watching a movie with my husband. When I catch myself doing it I always remember my principle of moderation and I just tell myself "It can wait, you've done enough already today." Hi Heather,
