About Mohamed Tohami

In this blog, you'll find simple living ideas that fall midway between extreme frugality & minimalism and the hoarder’s extreme fear of deprivation. That’s where ordinary folks live and desire to enjoy more with less without being criticized, judged or lectured for not being an ‘extreme’ minimalist. Look at me as a normal person who is frustrated by the radical minimalism tips out there and has decided to document and share his midway simple living ideas and experiments with you.

    Great interview! One of my favorites.
    I would mention in the area of healthy living that fresh fruits and vegetables, especially those grown and sold locally or those you grow yourself, actually taste BETTER. At least, that’s what my family and I have found.

      Thanks Willow. Joshua is amazing. I agree with you. When I buy local fruits and vegetables IN SEASON, I find it more tasty and fresh.

    My favorite part of this video is when Joshua speaks of getting rid of that resistance towards leading and living the minimalist life – starting with his car, then the living room, so on and so on. And that goes with any goal in life, starting small and going from one action to another. There’s no need for “All or Nothing” attitude.
