Timeless and Necessary for Everyone!

Laraine has written a spiritual book, a practical book, a profound but approachable book, that takes the reader to a personal journey from the inside out and back! Laraine presents the reader with a thesis that “letting go” is timeless and necessary for everyone! Yes, for everyone! Moreover, this book challenges the reader but leaves him not defeated, but with a smile and purpose. Her unfathomable writing engages the reader “to want to” seek the spiritual dimension of this ignored topic. "The Little Way of Living With Less" presents us with a balancing act of self-reflection, and ideas to "Let Go with the Little Flower."

If you love ‘The Little Flower’ you will love this book!

Laraine Bennett’s latest book is now a new favorite. “The Little Way of Living With Less” guides the reader with practical advice on how to let go of the impediments in life, both spiritually, mentally, and materially, that prevent us from deeper union with the Lord. It’s not just a book about how to ‘declutter’ the material excess we’ve all accumulated over time. It also provides examples of how to do so with intention!
