National Simplicity Day – 12 July

National Simplicity Day – 12 JulyHappy National Simplicity Day!

Today, we live in a very busy world filled with work and other activities. We are surrounded by gadgets and laptops all the time and our mind is constantly active.

National Simplicity Day is a reminder to us all to take time out to enjoy the simple things in life.

The day focuses on a minimal lifestyle. In this, we do not focus too much on material things but instead on nature and inner peace. This can also help us understand what is most important to us.

All this can even do wonders for our mental health.

What is the history behind this day?

National Simplicity Day is celebrated in honour of Henry David Thoreau. He was an American writer, poet, philosopher, and naturalist. He was born on 12 July 1817 in Concord, Massachusetts, US.

Thoreau believed in living a life of simplicity. He encouraged people to look for ways to live a simple life, especially in nature and to remove things that weigh us down. He wrote many books on this subject.
