Welcome!

Whether you are a long-time friend of Voluntary Simplicity or a newcomer to the movement, we invite you to join us as we travel along a path toward a simpler way of living. You may be seeking a more joyful life, a life with greater satisfaction and meaning, a healthier, less stressful existence, deeper connections and more time with friends and family, freedom from the "rat race" or a way of living that is more friendly to the earth. These are some of the benefits people who embark on this journey experience.

"The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak."  ~Hans Hofmann, Introduction to the Bootstrap, 1993

Upcoming meetings:

Date: Monday, August 11, 2008, 7-9 p.m.
Location: Common Room, First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego
Topic: Garbage Warrior: The Story of Mike Reynolds
Description: This month Voluntary Simplicity will view the documentary "Garbage Warrior: The Story of Mike Reynolds". Reynolds is an renegade architect from Taos, NM who turns found items like beer cans, old tires and discarded soda bottles into green buildings that are eco- friendly. He is contributing solutions to the race against global warming and environmental degradation. His buildings are highly energy-efficient, resilient and earthquake-proof. Come to see and hear about this man of vision and then discuss his ideas. For more information contact Ann McDonald 619-464-1937 or amcd92119@earthlink.net.
