Shelter for the spirit Book

In Shelter for the Spirit, Victoria Moran brings readers back to what home is really supposed to be - a place that revives and nurtures us, welcomes us back each day, and invites visitors to return. Combining the concepts of mindfulness and simplicity with a sensitivity to the demands of modern life, Victoria Moran walks readers step-by-step through the elements that make a home - from how to make the most of your home's imperfections and turn household chores into labors of love to the best ways to experience the comforts unique to home. She also provides advice and information about choosing to work, educating your children, and giving birth at home. Even more important, Victoria Moran shows readers in clear and accessible terms how they can transform their homes into places of sacredness and comfort. Shelter for the Spirit encourages readers to find reasons to celebrate and to make even dinners spent alone special. Also included are instructions for how to hold a house blessing and how to create your own personalized space for quiet reflection.
