Decluttering your home: A minimalist shares 7 ways to live with less

Published Wed, 12 Feb 2025 10:45:51 GMT

How much is enough? In a world of hoarders and minimalists, where do you fall on the continuum, and where would you like to fall?I’ll tell you, if a hoarder is a 10 and a minimalist is a one, I’m a 3.5. I’d like to be a three. I don’t like clutter. But I do like my stuff — my collections, my clothes, my books, my jewelry, my dishes — much of it, some could argue,  unnecessary. I don’t want to live an austere life, but I do want to live a well-edited life. And purging our excesses, my friends, like eating right and exercising, takes discipline.Stuff — mine and yours — has been on my mind since I spoke last week with former “Hoarders” host Matt Paxton. We talked about what makes hoarders hoard and about the other extreme, minimalism, which he’s learned to embrace since merging households with minimalist Zoë Kim.Curious about what drives minimalists to whittle their belongings to the essentials, I got Kim on the phone.

Gary Payton II is slated to participate in a full-team practice this weekend and could be cleared to play as soon as Sunday, the Warriors announced Thursday afternoon. Payton has continued to make progress in his recovery from an abdominal injury that was flagged during a routine physical after the Portland Trail Blazers dealt the NBA journeyman back to the Warriors as part of a four-team trade in February.

He joined the team on its recent five-city road trip and was spotted doing individual strength and conditioning work.Coach Steve Kerr said Wednesday that Payton has been “doing well,” and the team hoped he’d be back on the court “before too long.” Payton will practice Saturday without restrictions, the team said.
