Becoming Minimalist published a new edition of its “Inspiring Simplicity” Weekend Reads, a curated collection of articles and videos about minimalism and intentional living.

Becoming Minimalist has published a new edition of its “Inspiring Simplicity” Weekend Reads, a curated set of articles and videos on minimalism, money, relationships and making intentional choices. The collection brings together work by writers and researchers from several outlets, continuing a series the site’s publisher says he has compiled for 13 years.
The collection includes six articles. Topics range from spending money on what matters and using treasured possessions in everyday life to finding time for creativity by reducing obligations. The listed pieces include Francine Jay’s “Very Offline” at Miss Minimalist and Salem Becker’s “What Growing up in a Minimalist Home Taught Me About Money” at Simple Money.
Other selections include Janina Steinmetz’s Psychology Today article “Use Your Wedding China for Breakfast,” Jessalynn Jones’s “5 Surprising Things Minimalists Do Differently” at No Sidebar, and Angel Chernoff’s “8 Things You Will Eventually Regret Not Letting Go of in Life” at Marc and Angel Hack Life. The roundup also links to SFU News reporter Robyn Stubbs’s article about happiness research and the role of relationships.
Two videos by Joshua Becker are also featured: “The Truth Is There Isn’t Always a Next Time” and “You Can’t Have It All. Sometimes You Have to Choose.” The source presents them as recently released, but gives no release dates or further details about their production.
A Curated Route Into Simpler Living
The roundup offers readers a single starting point for ideas that can be applied to everyday choices, from how to use possessions to how to allocate time and money. Its selections frame minimalism not simply as owning fewer things, but as deciding what deserves attention and resources. That framing is visible in the collection’s descriptions of spending on the right things, making room for creativity and choosing between competing demands.
For writers and smaller publications, the feature also serves as a form of promotion. The publisher says the project has grown from sharing popular articles with Becoming Minimalist readers into a way to encourage writers covering minimalism, simplicity and intentional living. The report does not provide information about the reach of the collection or its effect on the outlets and authors included.

Thirteen Years of Weekend Selections
In the source report, the publisher says he began compiling the reading lists to share popular articles he had sent to readers on X. He describes the feature as having developed over time into both an inspiration resource and a platform for writers around the world. The account gives the series’ duration as 13 years, but does not state when it began or how regularly each edition has appeared.
This edition combines articles from specialist simplicity and personal-finance sites with a Psychology Today piece and a report published by SFU News. It also adds videos from the publisher. The material is united by themes of deliberate choices and attention to everyday life, rather than by a single new study or announcement about minimalism.
“It isn’t about spending less money on everything. It’s about spending money on the right things.”
— Salem Becker, as quoted in the collection from Simple Money
Publication Details Still Missing
The source material does not specify the edition’s publication date, provide links beyond the listed outlet and video titles, or identify a particular occasion that prompted this installment. It also gives no readership data, audience response or independent evidence about the claims and recommendations in the linked pieces.
The roundup’s descriptions are brief excerpts, not full summaries of the articles or a review of their evidence. Readers would need to consult the original work to assess its methods, arguments and qualifications. The source also does not state the exact start date or publishing schedule of the 13-year series.
Readers Can Follow the Listed Work
The next step for readers is to visit the publications and video pages named in the roundup for the full articles and videos. The source report does not announce a future installment date, a schedule change or any related event. The collection’s publisher says the feature has continued over 13 years, but whether or when another edition will appear is not specified.
