At Simplicity, we value experiences over materials. There is great joy in the act of giving, but gift giving does not need to create more clutter and stress in our homes and lives.
Studies have proven that experiences provide greater happiness and more memories. Life is short and it is the memories with your loved ones that have the greatest impact Most people do not need more stuff, they need more uninterrupted time. This holiday season we challenge you to turn off your technology and spend more face to face time with those you love. When you look back on your life, it is the relationships and experiences that you will remember.
