However, if you insist upon actually
having your own copy, we have made arrangements with Amazon.com
that will allow you to buy them directly from our web page. The beauty
of this arrangement is that you get the same great price and service
from Amazon books as if you had spent the time to search them out there
yourself, and we get a small commission that we guarantee you
will go into our travel fund. Feel free to help us see the world!
Thanks- Clay and Judy

There's a big difference between "making a living" and making
a life. Do you spend more than you earn? Do you dislike your job but
can't afford to leave it? Is money fragmenting your time, your relationships
with family and friends? If so, Your Money or Your Life is for you.
It puts it all in perspective and may give you that spark you
need to change it all. This is one of our favorites.

- Voluntary Simplicity : Toward a Way of Life That Is Outwardly Simple, Inwardly Rich - By Duane Elgin Price: $8.00
-
The grand-daddy of simplicity books. Voluntary Simplicity is not a
book about living in poverty; it is a book about living with balance.
It shows the pattern of changes that an increasing number of
Americans are making in their everyday lives. Although sometimes
dated, it is often given credit for naming and defining the movement.

The
Circle of Simplicity : Return to the Good Life - Keeping Life Simple - by Karen Levine Price: $7.96
Joyful Living - By Janet Luhrs Price: $16.00
Luhrs, the founder and publisher of Simple Living Journal, has assembled a big book that covers nearly all the bases: time management, families, money management, work, clutter, and gardening.
by Cecile Andrews - Price: $14.00
The Circle of Simplicity speaks to readers seeking to
find greater peace and happiness by eliminating some of the clutter
and distraction
in their lives. Andrews offers detailed instructions on how to form
and run a simplicity circle, a support group for the terminally harried.
Her book emphasizes the value of slowing down as a way to find time
to reconnect with a community. Although we have never read this book
we have had several people recommend it.

The book's seven guiding principles help you assess what's really
satisfying. It then discusses half-a-dozen areas in which we can live
creatively and simply (food, housing, clothing, celebrations, etc.).
For each area, after a brief discussion of what is meaningful and
needful in that area, Levine presents letters from many different
people detailing specific things they did or changes they made in
trying to work out the values of voluntary simplicity in their lives.
