Living Below the Line

Living Below the Line redefines sustainability-not as sacrifice, guilt, or deprivation, but as intentional design. In a world built to equate comfort with constant consumption, this book offers a calm, practical alternative: how to live well while using less, without feeling like something is missing.

Rather than focusing on restriction, Living Below the Line explores redesign. It shows how everyday systems-energy use, food routines, spending habits, mental inputs, and household flow-can be reshaped to support stability, clarity, and long-term resilience. The result is a life that feels lighter, quieter, and more humane, even in the face of economic pressure and environmental uncertainty.

This book does not shame abundance or romanticize hardship. It acknowledges that everyone's "line" is different, shaped by access, health, geography, and circumstance. Through thoughtful frameworks, reflective exercises, and regenerative thinking, readers are guided toward defining "enough" on their own terms.

Living Below the Line is for anyone feeling overwhelmed by excess, burned out by constant upgrading, or exhausted by sustainability narratives that feel punishing. It offers a grounded path toward sufficiency, dignity, and peace-proving that consuming less doesn't mean living less. It means living better.
