It is a
lifestyle of returning to simplicity. E.F.Schaumacher says - " Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex and more violent. It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction." Those who practise voluntary simplicity consciously try to
reduce their need for money and therefore their need to sell their own time for money.
Tracey Smith says - The more money you spend, the more time you have to be out there earning it and the less time you have to spend with ones you love. (source - wikipedia)
