I understand the distraction that Facebook can be. Its constant stream of updates can move quickly from being helpful to the exact opposite.
However, I have found Facebook can be a valuable tool for encouraging simplicity. I have seen it be a wonderful resource for connecting and drawing inspiration from like-minded individuals who are seeking a life of minimalism and simplicity. And the encouragement can be available at a moment’s notice—whenever it is needed most.
With that in mind, if you’re looking to change your Facebook experience, here are 10 pages I follow dedicated to simplicity. Each is unique, thought-provoking, and encouraging.
10 Facebook Pages to Encourage Simplicity In Your Life
1. Becoming Minimalist. The images and posts on our Facebook page reach more than 10 million people every week. The community is active, engaged, and uplifting. If you aren’t a follower yet, I think you’ll enjoy it. Thank you to everyone who has shared it with friends.
2. Simplify. A powerful page offering a journey of inspiration to encourage others, and one that brings us that much closer to the joy and happiness we are searching for.
3. No Sidebar. Design a simple life and experience the happiness you deserve. Caitie Wiersma curates articles and images from a wide range of sources to offer daily inspiration.
4. Clutterfree. The Clutterfree App, which provides a customized and personalized roadmap for someone to declutter their unique home has a wonderful Facebook page filled with inspirational quotes and articles.
5. Simplify Magazine. Helping families focus on things that matter most.
6. Be More With Less. Inspiration from Courtney Carver and the minimalist fashion challenge Project 333. Discover what matters most. Simplicity is the way back to love.
7. Break the Twitch. Practical intentional living with Anthony Ongaro. Minimize distractions, build habits, and create opportunities to live a great life.
8. Marc and Angel Hack Life. Two of my favorite people online, Marc and Angel Chernoff, have created a wonderful Facebook page focused on inspirational advice, productivity, health, love, work, and general self improvement.
9. The Life on Purpose Movement. Erica Layne has created a powerful movement for purposeful women, where she explores topics from self-care and happiness to simple living & purposeful parenting.
10. Joshua Becker. You can also follow my Author page on Facebook as well. I use it to keep people updated on different appearances and engagements and other places that I publish. It’s a bit broader than just minimalism. You’ll like it.

Love to add Frugalwoods blog – worth a view or maybe do a frugal min list
Annelies Mentink says
Thank you for this list, Joshua! As a Belgian I follow your message for some time now and I am proud I can say I am the first minimalist coach in my country. Unfortunately my facebook-page (Annelies minimaliseert) is most of the time in Dutch, since this is what my readers are looking for.
I hope to meet you and fellow minimalists you mention once in Europe (or better even in Belgium), because you are a great inspiration for the minimalist message our world need so badly.
Cheers, Annelies Mentink

Hey Joshua, thanks so much for including The Art of Simple page… I agree, it’s been a fantastic experience connecting with so many people eager to simplify and live well. We love what you do here as well, so the feeling is mutual!
We recently started a Group dedicated to the conversation about what it means to live simply and well, and I think lots of Becoming Minimalists would enjoy it as well… The link is pinned at the top of the AoS page you’ve linked here, if anyone’s interested. It’s been a fun place to chat.
Thanks for your encouragement and giving spirit, friend!

The Kon Mari page is good too. Though focused on organizing stuff, the method cultivates a more minimalist, essentialist mindset.
Zoe says
Thank you so much for sharing The Minimalist Plate! I’m honored to be included in this list and thankful for the opportunity to share the simplicity message alongside these inspirational and encouraging people.
Thank you, Joshua, for all your inspiration, encouragement, and generosity you so freely give!
Courtney Carver says
Thanks Joshua! Great to spend time with you last weekend and happy to be a part of this post.

I haven’t heard of half of these so I’ll definitely be checking them out. I’m finding in my journey to simplify that it’s hard to stay focused (there are so many potential distractions!) – but also so many directions to improve ones life.
Brian Gardner says
Like Erica, very thankful to be included in this list. More importantly, very thankful for the friendship we’ve developed over the years, and one that brings us together at least once a year in person.
Thanks for all that you do, all that you inspire, and for providing a place where your message is spread and shared via pages like ours.
Renita says
Thank you. Love you page!
Erica Layne says
I’ll be the first to say thank you so much for including The Life On Purpose Movement in this list! I’m honored. I know and love all but one of these pages (which I’ll be checking out asap) and can attest to how great they are. Thanks again, Joshua! Happy weekend. :)
