Best selling author David Wann presents 17 forms
of real wealth that can eradicate affluenza, a
pandemic he helped diagnose in the book,
Affluenza: The All-Consuming Epidemic. When we
change a few key priorities and values, such as
what we mean by the word success, many of our
material wants will cease to be obsessions, says
Wann. Instead of fidgety, addictive consumption,
our lives can be filled with the real wealth of
sanity, health, hope, caring, connection, participation, and purpose.
Sounds too good to be true? Wanns new book,
Simple Prosperity , Finding Real Wealth in a
Sustainable Lifestyle www. davewann .com , draws
on the latest research to document how social
connections, good health, contact with nature,
stimulating work, leisure time, great
neighborhoods, and other forms of real wealth can
build up our immunity to affluenza. As a result,
we become less vulnerable to the borrow-and-spend
mentality thats backed the U.S. economy into a
corner, says Wann. By reevaluating many aspects
of daily life, including what we eat, where we
live, and what we buy, were starting to imagine
what a joyfully moderate, efficient,
compassionate lifestyle will look like. The good
news is that curing the pandemic of
over-consumption at both the personal and
cultural scale is not about giving up the good life but getting it back.
David Wann is president of the non-profit
Sustainable Futures Society, a board member of
the Cohousing Association of the U.S., and a
fellow of the Simplicity Forum, an association of
writers and thinkers on the topic of sensible,
sustainable lifestyles. Wann has received various
lifetime achievement awards for his work on
sustainability. Hes been an passionate gardener
for 25 years and coordinates the community garden
in the neighborhood he helped design Harmony
Village in Golden, Colorado. Hes written nine
books and produced many award-winning TV programs
and videos on sustainable design and sustainable lifestyles.
