It’s a survival guide on how to eliminate material goods whether there is a move in your immediate future or not. If there is, this book contains a multitude of useful and practical steps to accomplish this while retaining your sanity. If not you might simply want to have more space where you are now.
Or maybe you’re dealing with a merged household and all the associated material goods. What do you keep and what do you let go? The decisions can be difficult and may take years to implement.
Going Forward: Downsizing, Moving and Settling In discusses downsizing from the perspective of reducing the size of your living quarters and the number of objects you own. By reducing these you create more room in life to grow without being encumbered by the unnecessary.
Downsizing is a process often repeated in life. It’s streamlining your homes in a variety of ways as you plan for the future while you enjoy the present. Letting go of the past will bring you a peace that will surprise you.
Is your “stuff” a protection against homelessness? Is a cherished item a reminder of other times—youth, vibrant life? Is it a status symbol? Do you really need all of it in daily life now? What if you experience a serious event that causes a major life change? What would happen to all this then?
Going Forward: Downsizing, Moving and Settling In offers an abundance of packing and moving tips for those who are relocating. What to do with children and pets during a move? Knowing they can be stressed with the process will guide you in the right direction.
The best part of downsizing life comes when you experience the joy of living a life that matters today and will for generations to come.
A journey to the future without being encumbered by extra “stuff” can be spiritually uplifting. Knowing that you receive nourishment from your surroundings indicates you are on the right track.
