Larry Weingarten's The Philosopher's Wrench brilliantly takes a philosophical approach to fixing things: from home water heaters to personal relationships. Weingarten speaks to the heart and soul of living wisely and lightly on the planet. He is an expert on hot water heaters, energy efficient homes, and living off the grid. But his writings on living well go much deeper than the mere proper maintenance of a home's technology. The process of fixing physical things is remarkably similar to the process of fixing emotional and spiritual issues. Enlisting the powers of openness, perspective, and a quiet mind can go far in helping you fix any sort of problem that crosses your path or that you may have been burdened with. This understanding and the confidence these powers bring is truly life-changing! Imagine a life with no real fears; imagine the calmness you would feel.

Make your own non-toxic cleaning products at home quickly and easily!Keeping the home clean is essential but making sure that it is truly clean means that you must move beyond the commercial products that are on the market. In fact, there are many benefits to making your own cleaning products, including financial savings and a healthy living environment. This publication is your guide to helping you make those products quickly and easily. Here's what you'll find inside:Basic cleaning tipsKeeping the floors spick and spaClean and organize your kitchenTidy up your bathroomOrganize your bedroomMake gadgets immaculate againThis endless cycle cannot really get you anywhere as far as home organisation is concerned because what it can only teach you is to respond to crises. So unless someone is coming to visit, you will hardly do much. All this continues to the point that you now stop caring who is coming and in the worst cases, you simply decide not to allow guests to come to your house. They say no man is an island; you will need friends and family at some point in your life. But if you are ashamed of your dungeon of a house, welcoming guests will never be an easy thing.

I HAVE taken so much pains to make the following work deserving of the title it bears, that I could not, without affectation, pretend to undervalue my own performance, by anticipating doubts of its utility, or by expressing any fear lest my friends should be disappointed when they look into it. Every publication of this description is necessarily calculated to be of some essential service; for it must not only be practical in its descriptions and directions, but must relate to matters touching the daily and hourly wants of all mankind; and it will, of course, be approved according as it may happen to meet those wants. While I am offering advice with respect to the manner of conducting domestic affairs, I cannot refrain from expressing my regret that so large a proportion of the young ladies of England are sadly deficient in that information, and in those practices of economy which are the most essentially necessary to their welfare as persons of influence and authority in a house. I am by no means singular in lamenting that the advantages of a knowledge of housekeeping seem to be so entirely lost sight of by those who have the responsibility of bringing up either their own or other people's daughters; and I find it frequently the subject of remark that the ladies of the present day have become incapable of being so skilful in the discharge of their domestic duties as the ladies of a former period were, in proportion as they have become more cultivated and more accomplished. The desire which many persons feel to give their children a better education than has been bestowed upon themselves is laudable, because it proceeds from sincere affection: but how often is the success equal to the motive which actuates? How often is the manner of attempting at all calculated for attaining the object so earnestly sought? An ambition to promote the welfare of children reconciles parents to part with them at that tender age when they ought to command more constant care than they generally need at a more advanced time of life; and this ambition is so strong that it will even cause little girls to be consigned to the blighting atmosphere of a crowded schoolroom, there to bewail the loss of the warm hearth, or the airy room of their own homes, and all the comforts which depend upon a mother's solicitude. With a view to their being educated, that is to say, fitted for the world, and for the discharge of their respective duties in it, girls are sent to school, and are there condemned to a dull course of lessons, before their minds have sufficient strength to imbibe any kind of learning that requires mental labour, and before their understandings are equal to any greater exertion than that of perceiving the difference between a roasted apple and a sugar-plum.

Clutter: it's not just the piles of junk in your closet. It's also the nagging thoughts, endless to-do lists, and calendar full of obligations. It's the fears and worries that cycle through your mind on repeat, and the sticky emotional energy that you pick up from the people around you. It's the sense of panicky suffocation you feel when you contemplate all that you "have" to accomplish in a day, a week, or a lifetime. For almost thirty years, Stephanie Bennett Vogt has been teaching the art of clearing clutter at every level: physical, energetic, mental, and emotional. Her unique "slow-drip" approach to clearing is a welcome antidote to popular binge-cleaning methods that leave you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. With her practical tips and step-by-step guidance, you'll learn how to identify the root causes of clutter, create a personalized clutter-clearing plan, and break the endless cycle of clutter accumulation. Completely revised and updated with even more inspiring stories, helpful exercises, and insightful advice, Your Spacious Self: Clear the Clutter and Discover Who You Are, 10th Anniversary Edition is the ultimate guide to transforming your home and life.

Are you ready for a surprise? This book is about something other than cooking, so you will not learn a new way to prepare vegetables for dinner. Instead, you will uncover your root causes of why you hold onto stuff. Spoiler Alert: It isn't because you are lazy. Certified through The National Association of Senior and Specialty Move Managers (NASMM), professional organizer Lisa Geraci Rigoni explores our relationship with our stuff, dipping below the surface of a how-to book about organizing. Lisa reveals that "the stuff (you make up) about your stuff (physical clutter) is not about your stuff." With stories from almost two decades of guiding clients and five decades of personal development, Lisa hopes to inspire and motivate you. If you have organizational challenges, Lisa's insights will help you to resolve mental disruption caused by the physical objects you can see and what you cannot see - yet. Invest in yourself! Reading this book will transform your life, allowing you to reclaim your space mentally and physically. Glinda, the Good Witch, tells Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, "You have always had the power, my dear. You just had to learn it for yourself." "Through engaging stories and highly relatable experiences, Lisa Geraci Rigoni helps us identify the connection we make between mental and physical well-being and why we hold on to too much stuff If you find yourself challenged by a house full of stuff and desire a change, let Lisa guide you on an inner journey to transform your outer life." -Joshua Becker, # 1 \rVall Street Journal Bestselling Author of The Minimalist Home "I found myself relating to stories Lisa eloquently shares in her book. When did 'things' that grace the bookshelves and closets of my home become stuff? It's time to take a journey of releasing!"-Becky Norwood, Spotlight Publishing House

"It's one thing to get organized, but how do you make those systems stick? [This book] takes the intimidation and hesitation out of the maintenance involved to prevent you from abandoning your once-tidied systems or maybe help you to get organized in the first place. When you have a system that works, maintenance is a breeze. Think of a silverware drawer: it's obvious where each utensil goes, and so everyone in your house should know how to move the forks from the dishwasher to their spot. Often, when you're struggling to keep your home tidy, it's because your system is too complex and needs some tweaking--and this book will dig deeper to show you how"--]cProvided by publisher.

Alongside gorgeous photos of the Marrs' restored farmhouse, their delightful kids, and many other spaces they've reimagined, Jenny and Dave share their personal journey of establishing their own home, an ever-growing family and a busy, sustainable business.

As Jenny says, 'Our company motto is the simplest of equations: House + Love = Home. Beautiful spaces are most often imperfect and full of character. Just like people. Perfection is never the goal. Living well is.'"--
