No New Things (eBook, ePUB)

A Radically Simple 30-Day Guide to Saving Money, the Planet, and Your Sanity

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

From award-winning sustainability expert Ashlee Piper, a witty, no-nonsense guide to regaining control over your time, consumerist impulses, and financial and mental wellness

For nearly two years, Ashlee Piper challenged herself to buy nothing new. And in the process, she got out of debt, cut clutter, crushed her goals, and became healthier and happier than ever-all the things she'd always wanted to do but "never had time to" (because she was mindlessly scrolling, shopping, spending, and stressing). After a decade of fine-tuning, No New Things guides readers through the same revolutionarily simple challenge that has helped thousands of global participants find freedom and fulfillment in just thirty days.

The book follows the rise of what Piper calls "conditioned consumerism" and how it sneakily hijacks our time, money, and mental bandwidth, as well as harms the planet. From there, readers follow customizable daily action items that bring about the ease and richness of a life less bogged down by spending and stuff, without compromising on style, convenience, or fun.

Whether you're a bona fide shopaholic or someone who just wants to buy less and live more, No New Things is the antidote to modern overwhelm.
