“What a validating book…if I quoted all my favorite impactful parts, I’d be breaking some sort of copyright laws…”–B.R., Amazon reviewer
- Trust your needs, not your conditioning. Discover how creative entitlement can matter more than your bank balance when it comes to designing a home that fits you.
- Sensory assessment exercises help you understand how your own nervous system responds to the world, and how to adjust your space to feel at home.
- Understand how your environment can drain your energy, and how to boost your mental and physical health by adapting your space to your needs, not vice versa.
- Work with color, sound, light and space in ways that transform your experience of everyday life.
- Notice how your space mirrors your relationships, and learn to adjust physical boundaries to create more harmony and balance in your emotional life.
- Step into your agency on a personal and societal level, and use your expanded awareness to create healing in those around you.

What kinds of light fixtures will be BANNED when the establishment comes to its senses.
What color has to do with hormones. (And how to leverage it–St. John’s Wort, piffle!)
