About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
If home is where the heart is, why do we neglect our domestic lives?
Our feelings about home have a significant bearing on how we feel about ourselves. But as many of us have little control over our living situations, it's unsurprising that one in three people don't feel at home where they live, and only 56% experience joy there.
We need to rethink our relationship with our home, and how we live within it, to inspire positive change in the rest of our life.
Since 2017, Katie McCrory has led the largest global research into home – the annual IKEA Life at Home Report – identifying the eight universal emotional states that create the 'feeling of home'. Here, she shares practical tools and strategies to harness comfort, control, security, accomplishment, belonging, nurture, enjoyment and aspiration for happiness and harmony. From reframing our expectations to creating domestic 'zones' that help us accomplish our goals, this book offers a fresh perspective and a roadmap to a more fulfilling home life.
Whether you rent or own, share your space or live alone, you can finally cultivate that true feeling of 'home'.
