Description
Making a home that works for you is the key to a better life. Interiors expert Rebecca West reveals how to align your heart, home, and health via small changes that make a big difference.
What does it take to be happy at home? It’s not about buying or not buying a new sofa. It’s about whether your home is working for you in the best way. Your home can directly improve your wellbeing and contentment with better health, sleep, and relationships, and ultimately decrease your stress levels to increase your all-round happiness.
In this book, Rebecca West helps you to learn how to make your home feel brand new without actually relocating and how to redecorate so you can feel best in your space. Along with beautiful photographs, there are a variety of self-assessment activities to connect your financial, emotional, and physical health to your space to ensure it nurtures your vision – and while doing so, investing your time and money more effectively too.
With the valuable advice in Happy Starts at Home, you can commit to a philosophy of buying fewer things and doing more to discover what’s holding you back, in order to find joy and create a home that makes you smile.
