Great practical tips

I loved this book! Not only for the practical tips on HOW but even more so for the emphasis on the WHY! Susan Rosewood laid out several reasons why a family may want to implement a more "minimalist" lifestyle and really helped me understand if I didn't have a good grasp on my "why" I would never follow through! I really took this to heart and figured out my "WHY" and then the rest just fell into place. I can honestly say I am already breathing easier and feeling less stress as my house becomes clutter free for the first time in years!

Full of practical ideas!

Full of practical ideas. I love this book because it is full of things you can actually do rather than being a book of abstract philosophy. It has helped me focus on what is really important for me to do and eliminate time spent dealing with things I don't actually need in my life.This book has helped me achieve more freedom from the chains of a cluttered sometimes chaotic life. No more running hither and fro stealing my life from myself because of so many trivial things that now seem wholly unimportant.

Excellent ideas

I've listened numerous books on a simple lifestyle and this is one of the very best. The authors know what they are talking about. Under the bed storage collects dust and dust mites. Closet storage units hide unused clutter And I've helped clean enough storage sheds to know the worthless junk they contain. Save your money. Give the usable items away, discard the rest. I totally agree that there should be a place for everything and everything should be in its proper place. That way you'll know where it is and rarely have to hunt or an item when you need it.The key to making this work is putting items in their proper place as soon as you are finished using them. The book is full of really practical decluttering suggestions. Also excellent ideas on the importance of decluttering. It inspired another round of decluttering.

Pleased with this audiobook

This book helped me to focus on the process. I knew I wanted to declutter and downsize, but didn't have a system, in mind or know where to start without being overwhelmed. This book gives you a map on how to do it all and still have enough things to be happy with.

Waste of a credit

Nothing new to learn. Common sense in the world of minimalism. No real insight at all.

Really liked the book but the audio was messed up

I really enjoyed the content of this audiobook. My only problem was the narrator. I’m not sure if this was edited properly or what, but the text was repeated multiple times and at one point you could hear the narrator pause with frustration and correct the previous sentence. Never had this happen before. Strange.

Great book for simplify life

Great book. Everyone has attachments to their things. This book helps identify your tendencies and then helps you work through it according to your own particular style and comfort zone. Great book for simplify life, declutter home and start living a meaningful life. Now I just have to DO IT.

Well worth the listen

Simple to listen and practical. This book has a kind/encouraging tone and was easy to listen. His tips were practical and flexible, I definitely got done good advice from this book, and I’ve been reaseaching a simpler more streamline lifestyle for my young family for a while. Well worth the listen.

Awesome concepts!

I'm so happy I stumbled upon the documentary, The Minimalists on Netflix! It got me thinking about how I live my life and if I would consider myself content and happy. Certain aspects of my life, yes I'm completely happy with, however there is still a void which seems to have progressively gotten worse over the last year. So, after watching The Minimalists, I decided that this lifestyle had to be what was right for me, thus led me to the book, Minimalism. I must say that it has given me a much better understanding of this way of living and i couldn't be more excited to start on the journey to my minimalistic life.

Very insightful

This a great book if you’re looking into or stepping into this new minimal lifestyle. It’s a great start to into getting ready to start living life with more meaning. It isn’t meant to depict specially what to do or how to do it. It’s meant to briefly describe how they themselves got started and how you can too. It is an easy listen and I think slightly insightful. This is a great book for taking notes and reflecting on how you might want to start your new journey.

Very educational!

This book wasn’t what I expected... but it was still a good listen. I was hoping it was a organizing book how to become a minimalist but it didn’t cover that. It covered more about being a minimalist with your inner self not just with your stuff. Very educational!

Excellent!

This book is excellent for anyone ready to level up their minimalism after Marie mondo. For unseasoned minimalists, Kota of great starter tricks, for those of us already on the simplifying path, lots of insight and some new info!

Wonderfully explained

How wonderfully explained this book. I immediately fell in love with it. The concept is way to follow and I felt so motivated to declutter and work towards a minimalism that works for me.

Very inspiring!

This book is beautifully written, and is as effective for a newcomer to the minimalist philosophy as it is for someone who has already been working on it for years. The ideas are presented simply, clearly, and without preaching. The Ideas are lovely and inspiring.

Made me to change my mind

Great book really gave me an understanding of what minimalism really is and that it's not just about getting rid of everything and living with bare walls. Also found out that I have a lot of minimalist tendencies.

Encourage me!

This book has helped to encourage me in living a simpler life. We strive to spend more time together making memories than cleaning & organizing. The steps in this audio-book will guide the readers through that process

Very practical approach!

This audio-book is such an easy listen. If you are practicing minimalism already or have spend a bit of time on blogs and searching the Internet- much of what this audio-book shares, you'll have already listen about. But its useful anyway because it pieces out the different areas of your life you might be looking to simplify and gives you real and practical tips to approach them. Its a good motivator or if you are brand new to minimalism- a great starting off point.

Practical audio-book

This is a very practical audio-book for families. The tips throughout are incredibly helpful and easy to apply to any family. I highly recommend this listen if you're attempting to embrace minimalism in your life.
