Over the past few years home improvement has come to mean more than fixing leaky faucets, updating kitchens, and adding decks. It's about creating a feeling as much as a look and this book speaks directly to that need. The Stress-Fee Home shows how to create home environments that are oases for the body, mind, and spirit. It includes beautiful photographs of stress-free zones throughout the home from living rooms that help you unwind to playrooms that bring out the kid in you to master baths that pamper body and soul. The book also includes helpful sidebars for everything from reducing noise pollution to stress-free housekeeping to serenity-building exercises. Original and inspiring, this is every homeowner's guide to making his or her house a haven.
