Simplicity is more than a lifestyle option: it is a way of life.

In folk history and religion, from the Shakers to Zen, simplicity has generally been considered a good thing. Our own motivation may be to leave a smaller carbon footprint, to express a compassionate solidarity with those who have least; or simply to downsize. Whatever our concern, it is likely that the motivation to live a simpler life will spring from within.

With this inspiring book, discover how simplicity can become a way of life.
