Q: What does your daily routine look like?Ī: I start my day with what I call my "meaningful morning routine" It started as a 5-minute yoga practice and over the years has turned into a 2-3 hour routine including writing, meditating, yoga, walking and reading. I experienced better health, more clarity and so much more love and presence in my relationships. ![]() Once I made that connection I simplified everything, including my career and wardrobe. Q: Your website is "Be More With Less" - how does this idea of simplicity translate into the different aspects of your life?Ī: As I was making changes to different areas of my life, I realized that as I lived with less on the outside, I became more me on the inside. I figured out what worked best for me by experimenting, practicing and being open to the idea that this journey may take some time. Q: Tell us a little about yourself! How did you get into (and so good at) living simply in the first place?Ī: I started simplifying my life in an effort to reduce stress and feel better - inside and out. Take a look at our Q&A with Courtney below. VETTA was lucky enough to have Courtney answer a handful of our questions and she was kind enough to give us more of her amazing insight. Soulful Simplicity is Courtney’s brand new book, in which she helps readers to improve their lives as a whole with the power of simplicity. With all of the tips and advice that lives on her website, it’s no wonder why Courtney’s guidance has evolved into a book. With Project 333, Courtney has created a community of people who use minimalism to power their daily outfits. Every three months, participants are challenged to select 33 items - including clothing, outerwear, shoes and accessories - to wear for the next 90 days. One of her most popular projects is Project 333, a minimalist fashion challenge. She later started her influential website, Be More With Less, and has established herself as a master of minimalism. Courtney began working towards a simpler life after receiving a life-changing diagnosis in 2006. For Courtney Carver, owning less is the key to living more.
