Dossier
DO YOU FEEL overwhelmed, exhausted and fed up of slaving to support a lifestyle that doesn’t make you happy? In this Dossier, we explore our consumer habits – and creating a life based on values, not things. Anita Chaudhuri examines minimalism – talking to the experts, and people who’ve made radical decisions to declutter and streamline their lives, and asks: can living more plainly make us more content? Tara Button, author of A Life Less Throwaway, tells us how to shop wisely for sustainable purchases that last a lifetime; we ask you to dig deep in our coaching session, to discover what’s getting in the way of a simplified life; plus, take our test to find out what your ‘stuff’ says about you. Inspired? Join our exclusive Life Leap Club, open to all magazine subscribers, as we launch our month-long Psychologies Decluttering Challenge with expert Cait Flanders, author of The Year Of Less, who will coach us on how to simplify our lives – together.
