What it is

Manners, care for your things, patience, reading and gentle routines. Thirty habits that cost nothing but a few minutes, kept the way a grandmother keeps them: properly, and without fuss.

Each day gives you:

  • One habit, and the reason Vivienne keeps it, told as a short story in her voice.
  • One small practice to do that day: sew the loose button, write a thank-you note by hand, read ten pages before any screen, set the table properly even when you eat alone.
  • A page of your own: one question to write about, lines to write on and a box to tick.

Also inside:

  • A 30-day tracker for the month.
  • A self-check to fill in before you start and again at the end, so you can see what changed.
  • Four weekly reviews: keep the habits that fit, let the others go.
  • A "mend, keep, give" page for your wardrobe and home.
  • A month-in-review section: the five habits you're keeping, and a letter to yourself to read in three months.

A taste of day 3

Sew the loose button today. There is a cardigan in my wardrobe whose button has been hanging by a thread for far too long. Today it will be sewn. A loose button is a small thing, which is exactly why it gets left. And a small thing left becomes a lost button, and a lost button becomes a cardigan nobody wears.

(from The Quiet-Wealth Habits, day 3)

Who it's for

For anyone tired of hustle and shopping content, who likes the calm of an "old-money" home but wants the habits rather than the price tags. About 15 minutes a day.

What it is not

"Quiet wealth" here means a calm, well-kept life. This workbook is about habits and character only. It contains no financial, investment or money-making advice, and it makes no promise of money. It is not health or medical advice either.

Is this financial advice?

No. There is nothing about money, saving, spending plans or investing in it. "Quiet wealth" means care: for your things, your time and the people around you.

Do I have to print it?

No. It works on a tablet with a pen, or printed at home.

Which paper size do I get?

Both US Letter and A4 are included.

Can I start any day?

Yes. Start whenever you like. If you miss a day, simply carry on the next day.

Can I get a refund?
