Overview

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.

Intro


Welcome to a little social experiment that changed our lives for good. I can say that now, because although this specific season is in my rearview mirror, as I looked back through every word I jotted down during my first foray into this experiment, I was surprised how many ideas were so new to me then, because they are the air we breathe today.

Let that be good news to you: No matter if anything you encounter in these next seven months seems too hard or crazy or overwhelming, maybe it will just be Step One into a new idea. Maybe in seven weeks, seven months, or seven years, you’ll discover yourself embedded within an entirely new way of life; you won’t even remember not thinking that way.

Remember, we’re jumping into the Simple & Free experiment together. Some of us are brand-new, some are trying again, some of us are still living out the elements we learned from our experiment years ago. But we’re all a part of this journey. We’re all committed to being lifelong learners who are less attached to certainty and Being Right, and more interested in paying attention and developing.

Let’s begin.
