Less is more

Many areas in our lives could benefit from scaling down.

• Meaningful relationships. Research suggests that satisfying friendships that are reciprocal have a positive impact on our well-being.
• Meaningful experiences. We spend too much time doing, and don't leave space of being. Instead of attending every event, plan a big adventure for yourself. Instead of eating out every evening, save up for the best restaurant.
• Other areas. Scale down your consumption by buying less. Scale down your time spent at work so you can see your children grow up.
