I bought this book because I'm moving to a new apartment at the end of this month. I just needed a quick read on how to live with less possessions but I got more than expected. This book deals with every aspect of wiping out clutter and living a simpler, healthier life.What is minimalism? To live life with less. With less of what? Of anything unnecessary, and there are unnecessary things everywhere (and I'm not just talking about possessions). Why? Because, as the author states in the book, the less unnecessary stuff you have, the less you have to worry about, and, consequently, the less stress you will endure. We are not in this world to worry about unnecessary stuff but to enjoy every second of our lives.As Julia says, "life is about experiences, not possessions," and that's what I want for my life, experiences. That's a meaningful life.To sum up: This book is an easy read packed with practical tips to simplify your life that you can implement right away. Recommended.
