Summary

"Therapy meets home design in this holistic, beautifully photographed guide to incorporating self-care and mental wellness into all your living spaces. Our surroundings are more than just a reflection of our personal style. The right lighting, furniture arrangement, and paint colors have a direct effect on our well-being. Whether you're looking for better work/life balance or design solutions for your family, licensed therapist turned interior designer Anita Yokota walks you through her signature method for setting up your home to boost your mind, body, and spirit. Featuring beautiful photographs and practical tips, Home Therapy focuses on the four "domains" that must be addressed in each room in order to holistically improve your living experience: The Individual Domain helps you get to know yourself, connect to your ultimate purpose, and discover what you need in a home. The Organization Domain walks you through decluttering each room and increasing its function so you can be your most efficient self. The Communal Domain inspires you to form more authentic connections with others using good design layout and ideas for gathering. The Renewal Domain is about creating the right energy for rejuvenation and recharging. Feeling confident when you step out the door starts in your home, with intentionally designed spaces. With Home Therapy, instead of basing decorating decisions on trends and fads, you'll be able to create thoughtful, personalized interiors that support your lifestyle and sustain your happiness"--
