Mary Anne launches the first in a series of motivational epiphanies for Health Heart month.

Week one focuses on the teachings of Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus, known as "The Minimalists", and aims to show how you might be able to improve your life with less.

Millburn and Nicodemus' documentary about the subject, 'Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things', first aired on Netflix in December, 2016.

Expect tunes from artists who we think use space most powerfully in their music, including Mogwai, Radiohead and Bon Iver.
