*Ideas to live + work at your best and find joy in a way that aligns with the values of Islam.* As Muslims we are often told that you can either be successful in this world or the next. This is *wrong.* We are here to let you know that the teachings of Islam are very much compatible with, and even beneficial to, our modern lifestyles. But how? We are a team of two co-hosts talking about productivity in Islam and more at Soulful Productivity. So stay tuned! And while you wait for the next episode, do check out our blog posts on the same topic at https://medium.com/soulful-productivity

Ep 2 - Capitalism, moderation in Islam and how it helps to navigate our material-obsessed world

Our second episode, Moderation in Islam, explores living in an increasingly capitalist culture. In this discussion, we share about struggles with retail addiction and consequential debt payment. We also explore the difference between wants and needs, including our social networking obsession and the FOMO (fear of missing out) that comes with it, raising awareness of the attention economy and ensuing effects. For those looking to Islam for solutions on living a more balanced life, we share strategies to living within your means with the moderation prescribed by Islam in an increasingly technologically advanced world, suggesting tips to be more appreciative, to declutter physically and psychologically, and ultimately to achieve improved health and wellbeing.
