Publisher's Notes
This extraordinary resource begins by showing you first how to find your true priorities, examine life as you live it now, and then consider alternative path to happiness. In short, spend more time doing what you love...."The Simpler Life" suggests strategies for understanding the most important relationships--those with family, friends, and community--and then for setting new boundaries for those relationships with courage and compassion. The book also uncovers the traps that complicate your most important environment--your home--and then offers ideas for downsizing, simplifying and tuning it into the haven you deserve....The chapter on simplifying your working life proposes practical ways to change the pace of your present career and takes a look at second careers and self employment. Even finances are addressed with guidelines that help define the relationship between money and quality of life and that show how to cut expenses and create a plan that focuses on needing less and saving more...."The Simpler Life" does not advocate revolutionary change. Instead, it points the way, gently, calmly to a simpler and richer life that's within the reach of us all.
