SIMPLE AND FREE: GUIDED JOURNAL

Discover the peace found in a radically simpler life using this guided journal featuring prompts based on the joyful, liberating lessons shared by New York Times bestselling author Jen Hatmaker in SIMPLE AND FREE: 7 Experiments Against Excess.
In SIMPLE AND FREE, first published as 7, Jen Hatmaker described her reckoning with excess through a social experiment, which turned into a spiritual movement. Now, in SIMPLE AND FREE: GUIDED JOURNAL, Hatmaker invites readers to examine their own seven areas of excess—from stress to spending to social media—and identify personal practices toward creating a life of "enough." It's one thing to imagine a better story; it's another thing to live one. This guided journal helps readers simplify the excess in their lives in practice, not just wishful thinking. SIMPLE AND FREE: GUIDED JOURNAL is a tool to help readers stay attentive, inspect their tendencies thoughtfully, and combat the modern-day diseases of greed, materialism, and overindulgence. It invites readers to deeply explore seven areas of excess: food, clothes, spending, media, possessions, waste, and stress—and create pathways towards a gentler, simpler life.
