20 Minimalist Blogs That You Will Enjoy Reading in 2023

Here is my list of 20 minimalist blogs that I enjoy reading, and hopefully you will too.

The Internet is a great place to develop and grow, learn new things, and meet new people.

Consequently, it can also be a great place to find out more about minimalism, simple living, and the importance of less.

Some people think that blogs are old-fashioned but I truly believe that they can be inspiring, thought-provoking, and motivating, especially when it comes to something like minimalism which can be challenging to maintain in today’s world.

There are many different ways to live a minimalist lifestyle and there is no one right way to do it. Everyone is different. That is why, for seeing more perspectives on minimalism, I decided to write this blog post highlighting some of my favorite minimalist bloggers.

If you are someone interested in minimalism, decluttering, simple living, and intentional living, I urge you to check out some of these bloggers. They offer unique perspectives and tips on living with less and living a more fulfilling life. On top of that, if you want to expand your minimalist perspective, even more, I have some minimalist cooking blogs, frugal minimalist blogs, and even a minimalist fashion blog for you to check out as well.

Personally, I read blogs to gain insights and tips on my journey to live a more minimalist lifestyle. Even now, as a minimalist, I need some inspiration to keep going.

And I have to tell you that all of the minimalist blogs that I am going to share have something unique, interesting, and helpful to offer.
