Ecologically Oriented Minimalism. A Plan for Saving Yourself and the Planet

Minimalism is not synonymous with frugality, not a trendy whim, and not a peculiarity of affluent people. It is a conscious choice and an effective approach to forming an eco-friendly lifestyle with fewer things. The fewer things around, the more... free space and time there is, the faster decisions can be made, and the more productive our day becomes.
 
Consumer society creates a dependence on buying first, and then on storing things. But how often do the items we spend our hard-earned money on end up in a landfill shortly after? By avoiding unnecessary expenses, we not only save money and time but also gain clarity of mind and financial stability to focus more on our health, education, and improving the quality of life.
 
If you are just considering transitioning to a minimalist lifestyle and don’t know where to start, Stephanie Safarian’s book will introduce you to the main principles of ecologically oriented minimalism and help you take the first steps in this direction. The author offers a step-by-step plan based on methods and practices, most of which she successfully applies herself. It includes all aspects of organizing the daily life and lifestyle of a modern person: from wardrobe, children's toys, and nutrition to the use of plastics, energy consumption, and a new, more eco-friendly type of thinking.
 
And remember, there is another huge advantage of living with less expense that is often overlooked (but not by the author of this book): minimalism is the key to preserving the Earth's precious resources and ultimately saving our planet.
