The Simple Things

Home is where the heart is

Happy Inside

- by Michelle Ogundehin

Home should be a place that restores, rejuvenate­s and replenishe­s, but all too often it’s overflowin­g with things that we don’t need or want. Michelle Ogundehin firmly believes that the state of our surroundin­gs impacts on every aspect of our lives, and that making small changes can bring enormous benefits to health and wellbeing. Comfort and cushions are important, as is a cosy chair or sofa to curl up in; natural materials such as wood and wool will help, while a healthy diet and cleaning little and often are key to ultimate happiness. But Michelle’s most important lesson is to embrace the calmness that declutteri­ng brings. (Ebury)
