The Year of Less
How I Stopped Shopping, Gave Away My Belongings, and Discovered Life is Worth More Than Anything You Can Buy in a Store

The book chronicles the author's personal journey through a year-long shopping ban, during which she only purchased essentials and systematically decluttered her life by getting rid of 70% of her belongings. Through this process, she explores her relationship with consumerism, discovers the value of experiences over possessions, and learns important lessons about self-identity and mindful living.
