From the Publisher

“As a professional organizer, I relate to Allen’s insights. He captures my philosophy regarding decluttering, and he says it in a wonderfully eloquent way. I look forward to sharing his book with my clients.”

—Gwen McClure, placeitsf.com

“I have come to learn that letting go is the surest path to wisdom. By that, I mean letting go in all ways: releasing stress, worry, negative thinking as well as stuff I no longer need. All of this 'holding on' can actually hold us back. Allen Klein has a gentle way of teaching which I greatly appreciate. The Joy of Simplicity is a little book with a big lesson—let go and grow!”

—Becca Anderson, author of The Buddha's Guide to Gratitude

“Allen Klein’s The Joy of Simplicity is a wonderfully straightforward and effective take on simplifying one’s life. Reading it gave me the perfect combination of motivation and relaxation at the same time.”

—Cassandra Aarssen, author of Real Life Organizing
