To me simple living means decluttering and frugality. It is synonymous with contenment. It means having less, not in a minimaliste sense of having empty space, but having carefully and purposefully chosen items that are fewer and suits our life better...
Which means simple living is also deeply linked to anticonsumption, at the antipodes of a life style where we always want more of things we don't really understand and where we don't really enjoy what we have.

To me it means opting out of the hype cycles and rat races that the media pushes

I also find this important. These days in don't watch anything recent in films and movies. I find old ones that are not talked anymore, I rewatch the one I already know and love and I'm really proud of how I decorrelated my media consumption from algorith recommandation. It made my live quieter, my watching experience more divers and less rushed. I still got a long way to go before optiong out the hype cycle but that's a big win for me.
