The Simple Living Guide
Written by the editor of Simple Living magazine, this book is filled with ideas and tips for simplifying your life. "Simple living is about living deliberately...not about austerity, or frugality, or income level. It's about being fully aware of why you are living your particular life, and knowing that life is one you have chosen thoughtfully. SImple living is about designing our lives to coincide with our ideals." Contains simple living approaches to everything from time and money management and work to cooking, health, holidays, and more.
Plain Living
Since the 1650s, the Quakers have been seeking ways to live plainly. This inspiring book addresses different aspects of plain living with a variety of Quaker voices. Their perspective began at a time when life was much simpler.
The Simple Life
I like this book because it shows how material simplicity and high ideals have been part of our American culture since the founding of our country. This is a comprehensive survey of simple living over two centuries, written by a history professor (but still very easy and enjoyable to read).
