Do the best you can, whatever arises.
Be at peace with yourself.
Find a job you enjoy.
Live in simple conditions; housing, food, clothing; get rid of clutter.
Contact nature every day; feel the earth under your feet.
Take physical exercise through hard work, gardening or walking.
Live one day at a time.
Share something every day with someone else; if you live alone, write someone; give something away; help someone else somehow.
Take time to wonder at life and the world; see some humor in life where you can.
Observe the one life in all things.
Be kind to the creatures.
From Helen Nearing, as listed in Sage Woman #69:
Begin at the beginning, and then go on from there.
Chose to keep only those objects that: bring you joy, you use frequently, and are beautiful. Put the rest away. After a period of time either bring them back into your life, or give them away.
