HIGH TIDE
Jo Hampson with Georgina Perkins
2006 p/b

Although many of us in the western world have more money than ever before, are we any happier for it? The treadmill of life with so many gadgets that are supposed to help us do things quicker and easier, the headlong rush into buying more and more unnecessary items, being trapped into a stressful cycle of work, salary and mortgage commitments. We seem to have forgotton one of the most parts of being - time. Spending time with family and friends, just even sitting together at meal times with proper conversation is getting more of a rarity.
Well if you are up to it there is an achievable alternative.
The authors who both had enjoyable jobs felt that they did not want to work 80 hours per week. They gave up professions in which they could have had further promotions but thought beyond all that. This book shows you how it is possible to change your way of life and it is all spelt out in a very straightforward way.
The chapters include, why you want to change your way of life, what will you realistically swap your life to and what you want from your future, reality check of the downside of downshifting, the upside of downshifting. The last chapter includes case studies of people who have taken the step.
I do not know of another book that explains the reality of achieving a way of life that would make you a happier and relaxed person. An honest book which will help you turn your daydreams into reality.
