The Mindful Home cover

A house is merely physical but a home is far more subtle and elusive. The Mindful Home takes the view that being ‘at home’ is a metaphor for finding ourselves and our core. Home is about qualities that we could equate with 'good' itself – true happiness, peace, beauty, wisdom and inspiration. It is also about the good things in life such as harmony, relationships, health and wealth.

Mindfulness can help us find our core and create a home that reminds us of the qualities associated with it. By exploring the ways in which we feed our mind and our heart through our senses, how we use space, the practicalities of managing a home, and how we can live a healthy and sustainable life at home, The Mindful Home will enable us to shape the living space we really want, creating an environment that both nurtures and invigorates us, while meeting our needs. 

The two megatrends of Mindfulness and Home Improvement are combined in a beautiful, useful book, which has attracted enormous interest around the world as the only book of its kind. Sections include Philosophy of The Mindful Home, The Five Senses The Five Spaces, and Home as a Healthier Environment.

Beautifully designed, this is the ultimate guide to the art of conscious living. Learn to create a nurturing home and mindfully care for yourself and your family.
