  • This challenge started off with an idea. Which turned into a lifestyle change. Even to this day, I still sometimes miss the hard wood floor. The way my back would crack as I rolled over from one side to the other. The way my knees would feel as they dug into the carpet. Oh the good days, the Minimalist floor days....

    I floor sleep by choice. Marketing helps us NEED fluffy things. My body health is greatly improved. I move furniture for a living. I was dealing with lots of daily pain, and back problems. Ive been on the floor for about 9 months...and the past 3, ive had NO pain. Blow my mind, hope to help others

    First: your videos are incredibly well-edited! Like, seriously man, it’s impressive. That shit takes time! The music, the cuts, all of it.
    Second: it is SO encouraging to see this... Movement! of iGeners, the new “youth”, embracing minimalism and true health and rejecting consumerism for the sake of having stuff!!
    It’s a beautiful thing, and I pray you and I and others like us continue spreading this wonderfully freeing way of life 🖤

    Been sleeping on only a very thin yoga matress for a couple of years. I used to have pain when I woke up, hardly being able to pull myself up. First day if sleeping on the ground I could go straight up, no pain and y body actually could stand up after waking up. Also back pain dissapeared, yay! Can def recommend.

      I'm your same size (but quite a bit heavier). I use a thick yoga mat and then sleep on top of a sleeping bag with a blanket. I also sleep on my back with a pillow under my knees. That makes all the difference.

    That’s pretty much the exact thought I had, I’ve slept on the floor before but not consistently. So far so good. I just can’t see the sense in owning a bed anymore, takes up way to much space for me to just sleep in. Japanese futon is in the looking.

    The bed is the singular most clunky thing which follows us to wherever we move... I loathe that there isn't something more easily constructed & deconstructed... mattresses are heavy horrible objects too... don't like sleeping directly on floor as it may have dirt, dust & critters, even with good cleaning... do sleep on a low platform bed with flatter 3" foam mattress... beds & sofas are horrible objects... God knows what they collect inside... no sofa, no big bed my entire life... Glad you raised this issue in our lives

    Hey Cade, I love your videos. You said you ask questions you probably shouldn't be but you still do anyways because you've got what I have- an insatiable curiosity. If you don't already watch Jordan Peterson, Elliott Hulse, Cole Robinson 'Snake Diet', Wim Hoff, David Goggins, The Joe Rogan Experience,Jeff Nippard, Terrence McKenna, Bob Ross, then I recommend to try these people/yt channels. There are many more to list but I don't want to over load you.

    the more muscles you have the better it feels, my bed is too soft for my ford tough body, the white perspective is so condescending haha, humbling, lowest point, minimumalism, you probably dont even know how you sound. science supports its healthy because the body on ground needs to be supported by the bones, not muscles. which cant be accomplished on a bed
