If you're curious about spirituality through asceticism

And if you're not, don't feel the need to answer.

But I'm feeling the need to put the reins on my behavior and I want to shed some things in hopes that pursuing simplicity and self-denial will help me locate what's truly important. I don't want to be a solitary person in the desert, but I'd be happy to hear from anyone for whom this path seems attractive or necessary.

If you remove yourself from distractions, it can help you focus on what's most important to you. I greatly simplified my life and scaled back tremendously, and it helped me discern. If there are specific facets which particularly interest you, I could get more specific.

I'm open to PM.
