Dominique Loreau

Dominique Loreau est une essayiste française qui vit depuis la fin des années 1970 au Japon, où elle propose des séminaires destinés à ceux qui veulent simplifier leur vie. Elle s'est fait connaître grâce à son ouvrage L'Art de la simplicité, paru en 2005.

« Je ne suis pas du tout écrivain », déclare-t-elle. Lorsqu'elle a commencé à rédiger son livre à partir de ses notes personnelles, certains passages s'adressaient spécifiquement aux femmes, d'autres aux hommes, puis elle s'est dit: « Flûte ! Le monde est toujours au masculin, moi je le mets au féminin. C'est une petite plaisanterie ».

L'idée de son livre est née en voyant les citadins japonais « vivre dans tant d'encombrement et de choses, et d'être toujours stressés et fatigués, à cherche

Courtney Carver

Courtney Carver writes things. She wrote a book called Soulful Simplicity and the simplicity blog, bemorewithless.com. She shares things that make her laugh and cry on Instagram (@bemorewithless). She doesn't know her Myers Briggs Type but she knows she's an introvert because she needs to be free from humans several times a day (cats and dogs are always welcome). Aside from her seasonal wardrobe, she doesn't count her things.

Carver doesn't have an impressive degree, awards, or a big, fancy home full of stuff. Instead, she selectively surrounds herself with her favorite things and people she loves.
