How to live a bohemian lifestyle
"Following my impulses, finding inspiration in chance encounters, and following through on my dreams, no matter how crazy they seem to other people."
How I did it: I have to thank my parents for this one, they encouraged me all during my childhood to try new things and explore, and gave me great emotional support for any dream I voiced, no matter how weird. :-)
As an adult, every time I have tried to deviate from my bohemian lifestyle (for example working for a big corporation) it eventually made me physically ill. I finally learned after a few attempts at "being normal" that this IS normal for me . . .
I've learned if I accept myself and my choices, others accept me as well.
Lessons & tips: Do what makes you feel joy and peace.
Don't do anything ONLY because others do it.
Stay present for yourself.
Explain calmly to your 'critics' why you have made your choices, but don't argue, just be calm and confident and continue on your way.
Resources: family and friends!
