About Mindful Homes:

Mindful Homes\\xa0approaches feng shui as a mindfulness-awareness practice. As I have grown older and more experienced in life, I\'ve benefited greatly from meditation. And the pearl, the wish fulfilling jewel, within meditation is seeing and sensing your interconnection\\xa0between your inner and outer environments. This book is an invitation to connect and become friendly with your home, and in turn your innermost self.
