Simply Living Well: A Guide to Creating a Natural, Low-Waste Home

Simply Living Well: A Guide to Creating a Natural, Low-Waste Home has completely transformed my outlook on sustainable living! This book is packed with so many great ideas that are not only practical but also easy to incorporate into everyday life. The author does an incredible job of breaking down the concept of living simply and intentionally, with a focus on reducing waste and embracing natural, eco-friendly alternatives. From tips on homemade cleaning supplies to zero-waste kitchen practices, I’ve learned so much about how small changes can make a big impact on the environment—and my own life. I especially love the DIY recipes and the simple yet effective solutions for a more sustainable home. The layout is clear, well-organized, and visually appealing, which makes it a joy to read and refer back to. If you’re looking to live more consciously and sustainably, this book is an absolute must-read! It’s truly inspired me to live more mindfully and make better choices for both my home and the planet. Highly recommend!

I absolutely love this book! It's filled with wonderful wisdom & ideas to use in my home. It has sections on kitchen, cleaning, wellness, bath & body, and garden ideas. It's recipes and projects are well written with nice pictures. I like the low waste ideas to create a healthy home & life!

I love this book because it provides practical and easy to understand ways to improve our personal health and habits, while helping the planet at the same time. The clear and common sense narration helps the reader learn new ways to replace the everyday, taken-for granted habits we all have and the products we all use. Her suggestions are in many ways reminiscent of the simpler times of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers, before the age of mass-production, processed foods, and engineered chemical products. The beautiful photographs, well-organized chapters, easy-to-follow ideas, and thoughtful encourgaement make this book both clarifying and gratifying to readers who want to start to improve the quality of their lives and the future of the environment. Each of us can begin to make a difference.

I love that this book gives real examples of use and also stresses the need to slowly use the non sustainable things in your life before adding these recommended changes. Otherwise the first step to being earth friendly already would be off on the wrong foot! It does go over the basics but then says hey try these things instead and see where your mind takes you. It makes your home and outside life start to connect in so many ways. I didn’t feel shame for still wanting or needing something that was in non earth friendly packages as it is at times unavoidable. Rather, it says cherish those items and use them more sparingly. Act as if it was a scarce luxury and not really an easily accessible product. Be realistic it shouldn’t be a chore or you’re not doing it right. Such a great attitude to give in a book.

I like how the author explained that it’s like a book of things your grandma would have shared because that is the best way to explain this book. If you are looking at removing toxins from your home, living more sustainably, making your own kitchen, cleaning and other home and garden products — this is the perfect book to have on hand. I’m so grateful I found this.

This book is very nicely done!! Such a beautiful book, filled with wonderful diy recipes and suggestions. Well worth the purchase!!

This may just end up being my new go to gift for everyone I know and love. It's so inspiring! Although I'm not new to zero waste books or the concept of simple living, I found this read to be a lovely refresher and motivator. I can finally stop pinning, googling and instagram saving all of the random tid bits of information I find and instead use this as my new reference book. Many of the solutions, recipes and projects are new to me and I'm very excited to try them out! If the stunning photographs don't motivate you to consume less plastic and opt instead for a healthier, cleaner more satisfying lifestyle, than I honestly don't think anything ever will! So much goodness in these pages.

This a simple guide on how to live a life with less waste. This made me remember on how our lives being simple until the past 10 years when we started an innovative life. But nothing is compared from before, cleam, simple, zero waste, creative and resourceful. I will pass this own to the next generations.

Back to basic... Vuelta a la sencillez y autenticidad. 100% recomendable....

Seen this book in tkmaxx, found it cheaper on Amazon ( great!) What can I say, a great book with plenty of things to make from home and it being all natural. Would recommend this book.

Ya he comprado varios libros dude tanto con este por el previo pensé lo están rematando porque están malo pero no solo es precioso si no que es el que ha llegado en perfecto estado algunos han tenido un poco doblada una esquinita algo mínimo no esperaba nada de este y ahora lo amo sus pags no son de la mejor calidad pero las pastas si, y la portada es bellísima lo recomiendo tanto.

This is a fantastic book for making all things for the home naturally. It is beautifully written and photographed. Have gifted it to others.

Die englische Version des Buches ist schöner als die deutsche.
