Ebook: The Simple Guide to a Minimalist Lifestyle

“Sim­plic­ity, clar­ity, sin­gle­ness: these are the attrib­utes that give our lives power and vivid­ness and joy.”- Richard Halloway

Post writ­ten by Leo Babauta. Fol­low me on Twit­ter.

Yes, I know it’s ironic it’s not just one page or one sen­tence … but I’ve just fin­ished writ­ing a new ebook I hope you’ll enjoy: The Sim­ple Guide to a Min­i­mal­ist Life.

I could have made it a sen­tence – “Elim­i­nate the unnec­es­sary” – but I tried to make it use­ful, and include chap­ters on dif­fer­ent prob­lems that peo­ple will face on their jour­ney to a more min­i­mal­ist life.

What will this ebook will help you with:

* Clear­ing clut­ter and reduc­ing your pos­ses­sions
* Fig­ur­ing out what’s nec­es­sary, and how to be con­tent with less
* Sim­pli­fy­ing your sched­ule, your work, and liv­ing a less stress­ful life
* Cre­at­ing a min­i­mal­ist work­space, home, com­puter, finan­cial life, diet and fit­ness pro­gram
* How to go paper­less and dig­i­tize your life

The ebook is $9.95, is Uncopy­righted.

Here’s a list­ing of the chapters:

  • A small irony
  • Notes on using this book
  • What is a min­i­mal­ist life?
  • Over­all min­i­mal­ist principles
  • How to become a minimalist
  • Con­tent­ed­ness
  • Rethink­ing necessities
  • Sim­plify what you do
  • Clear­ing clutter
  • Min­i­mal­ist home
  • Min­i­mal­ist workspace
  • Min­i­mal­ist computer
  • Going paper­less, digitizing
  • Min­i­mal­ist travel
  • Wardrobe and grooming
  • Min­i­mal­ist food
  • Min­i­mal­ist fitness
  • Min­i­mal­ist finances
  • Find­ing sim­plic­ity with kids
  • Deal­ing with non-​​minimalist loved ones
  • Min­i­mal­ism is the end of organizing
  • Step lightly upon this world: on sustainability
  • FAQs
  • Other resources

And here’s a pre­view of the first few chap­ters, so you can see what the ebook is like. As you’ll notice, the pages are pretty sparse, so while 104 pages on min­i­mal­ism might seem like a lot, the chap­ters are actu­ally pretty short.

The ebook is in PDF for­mat, is DRM-​​free, is $9.95 and again is Uncopy­righted. I don’t plan to offer it in dif­fer­ent formats.

It’s my hope that this book will help you live a sim­pler, hap­pier life!
