We all deserve a calm, well-ordered, pleasingly designed refuge where we can relax and enjoy our families. Having had four children in a little more than five years while running a thriving design business, Christa O’Leary has become the guardian at the gate of our sanctuaries—our homes. She teaches us to be aware of the toxins found in both our food and furnishings; the detrimental effects of our unhealthy habits; and society’s frantic need to have the latest gadgets, to get ahead, and to be forever on the go. As a designer, therapist, and eco-friendly expert, she’s often asked how she makes her hockey-mom life and peaceful, beautiful, healthy home look so effortless. Well, the hunt for her secret is over! Christa shows us that it’s possible for all of us to feel inspired, energized, and in love with our lives and our homes. There are other books that address some of the components found in Home in Harmony, including design, color, feng shui, psychology, clean eating, detoxification, meditation, and finding our soul’s purpose. However, this is the first book that puts it all together in a fun-to-read, easy-to-implement format. This is the formula for living an extraordinary life, and it’s now available to everyone!

'We believe in an Ireland where society is changing rapidly and evolving in all directions. However, one thing that has not changed is the need constantly to strive for harmony in the home - in families and in relationships. This timely book offers practical solutions to the difficulties being experienced in this area by many people today.' Seamus Brennan TD, Minister for Social and Family Affairs Despite the changing and more diverse nature of contemporary society in Ireland, the need for a peaceful home life is still universal. Following on from the community awareness education programmes developed by the authors, Harmony in the Home provides guidelines for dealing with the relationship problems that can upset the balance and peace of a home. Presented in a question-and-answer format, the book relates the actual experiences of men, women and young adults to which the authors respond with sensitivity and grounded practicality. The various problems related are representative of a broad spectrum of home situations, reflecting the move away from the traditional model of the home. Among other issues, Harmony in the Home offers advice and suggestions on relationships, conflict and violence, bereavement and the law.

The Christian family should be the very foundation for our faith. It is the starting place to begin to apply the Word of God to our lives. Psalm 46 states that God is our refuge and strength and a very present help in trouble. Did you know that God set the home in place to be a refuge, to renew our strength when we are weary? It should be a place we can go when we are in trouble to find help for our problems. Does your home represent a haven of rest and refreshment? Sad to say, many of our homes don't present this picture at all. Some family members may go as far as to say their home may be the last place they would want to go after a hard day at school or the office. Harmony in the Home won't create a utopia where there are no problems, but it will promise a more harmonious way to deal with them.
