I'm just starting my minimalist Journey and was interested to hear others ideas and thoughts about how it's helped their lives. this book was okay but much more about organizing your house and your rooms then it was about minimalism.

more about organizing than minimalism

More than technique, this book will guide your thoughts to a higher level of thinking. Since journeying into this philosophy, I’ve become excited about actually becoming a minimalist! It’s OK! I feel a new found freedom. More savings, less clutter, more TIME to enjoy my life. I even eat way healthier, I’ve become a vegan and have a robust garden. I’ve joined a yoga group of new friends and am more flexible. I read the Bible daily instead of shopping. I truly feel HAPPY all the way around. Thank you!!

Brilliant!

What a great way to attack our stuff. Listening to this book automatically has me looking at my rooms of furnishings with a more discerning eye & sorting through my excesses, all the while listening to this easy-to-listen-to narration.

A great motivator
