Vabaliige

Vabaliige is a term used to describe a person who practices or advocates for a lifestyle characterized by voluntary simplicity and a reduced reliance on material possessions and modern technology. This philosophy often emphasizes sustainability, self-sufficiency, and a deeper connection to nature. Adherents may choose to live in rural areas, grow their own food, and minimize their environmental impact. The concept is not monolithic, and individuals may interpret and implement its principles in diverse ways. Some Vabaliige practitioners may still engage with certain aspects of modern society, while others aim for a more complete detachment. The movement often draws inspiration from various philosophical and spiritual traditions that promote contentment with less and a focus on inner well-being over external accumulation. Core tenets frequently include mindfulness, ethical consumption, and a rejection of consumerist culture. The term itself is not widely recognized in mainstream discourse, and those who identify with its principles may use other labels or simply describe their way of living.
