A Message from the Author
"I’ll be honest, I have been in a home that was not my idea of a haven. First and foremost, I wasn’t happy with the relationship with myself. I’d developed a lack of self-confidence and was letting my unachievable aim for perfection, interfere with my desired family connections.
I felt stressed and exhausted for most of the time. Even my formal education in Home Economics wasn’t enough to help tame the havoc around me and within. I knew there had to be a better way.
I spent the next few years attending courses, reading more books, doing more research, getting excellent mentorship, and having more experience with success.
I found the secret sauce was the adoption of a more holistic approach that incorporates nourishing the mind, body, heart and soul of everyone in the home.
I now enjoy a home with the love, peace, and happiness that I had always dreamed of. I wrote this book because I want you to have yours too, but without the time and pain that I went through to get it.
So, I’ll give you the what, why, and how of my success. Within are small actionable steps to help turn your home into more of the haven that you have always envisaged."
"We all love the "peace and quiet" of home life; yet it can seem so difficult to attain. Here you have a plethora of well-crafted suggestions to bring more peace, calm and fulfilment to your home, your family and yourself."
Marcus Pearce, CEO of The Wellness Couch podcast network, Author of "Your Exceptional Life", Father of four
Few others talk about a holistic approach to home management
THE MAIN AREAS YOU WILL FOCUS ON
The MIND because it is the conscious and subconscious command centre that can influence the happiness and health of every aspect of our life.
The BODY because it puts into action the instructions from the brain. Therefore, it needs the optimal internal and external environment to maintain its ability to do so.
The HEART because its all about our feelings of love and belonging, fun and laughter, empathy and kindness. All the feelings that make life worthwhile.
The SOUL because this is our motivator. It is the fire in our belly that keeps us going; that fuels our desire for connection, betterment and fulfilment.
