Home Therapy: Interior Design for Increasing Happiness, Boosting Confidence, and Creating Calm: An Interior Design Book

This lovely book is full of great design advice and inspiring photos that show simple but impactful ways to beautify your space. What I love about Anita's work, both in this wonderful book and in her online presence, is that she understands the needs of a busy family. There are so many helpful tips for creating spaces that are functional but also calming and beautiful. She breaks down the why and the how of her design theory in a way that makes it much more accessible for people (like me!) who need some guidance in getting started making small changes in their home. The book itself is gorgeous and worthy of having out on your coffee table. I purchased a few copies of this book to give as Christmas gifts for hard-to-buy-for friends and several people commented that they loved it. If you're on the fence, I highly recommend buying the book!

I love that Anita uses her expertise in therapy to help us bring a sense of calm and balance to our homes. I 100% believe that our mental health can truly benefit from having a home that reflects our personality and with systems in place to keep it both organized and functional. The photos are gorgeous and inspiring making it the perfect coffee table book. I also love that she shared her background on coming from an immigrant family as I can relate to her story as a fellow immigrant confronting my limiting beliefs. Many practical design tips are included in this book to help anyone create intentional spaces in their home. I will be keeping this book for myself and gifting one to a friend! Highly recommend !! - Yuni

The photography of this book is so gorgeous it makes it the perfect addition to any coffee table or bookshelf. But within the beautiful pages of Home Therapy, I found so many great pieces of advice and guidance for the mind, body and home. As a lover of interiors, DIY and self-care, Anita provides such helpful and insightful ideas for a more beautiful and functional home.

This book not only has helpful life advice, for your living space and relationships, it is also a sensory experience. The cover feels wonderful in your hands, no dust jacket needed. The binding is stitched, a solid construction. The colors are inviting and soothing to the eyes. This is a book that you leave out, it will start conversations as well as add to the room. My new go to house warming gift, for the beauty, as well as for the real life wisdom that the author shares to help us create united relationships at home.

From the very first page this book was full of useful, easy to implement and understandable tools and ideas. She does a wonderful job teaching design while sprinkling self help through her therapist background throughout the book and bringing the two together. Very user friendly with practical and relatable solutions. Highly recommend as a gift to yourself or anyone looking to bring peace and order and inspiration to the home while gaining a better understanding of yourself and how to help those in your home.

Someone recommended this book when I was doing some spring cleaning and home re-organizing. I read the description and it got me intrigued so decided to give it a try. When I got it, I would spend about 15 minutes each morning reading it while I had my coffee. I found it set me up for things to consider in my day/week. I do like the images and ideas that are shared in the book in terms of each room/space in your home. It not only gets you to consider some practical organizing ideas but also how we want our spaces at home to feel and to contribute to our and our family's wellbeing.

Not only is this a beautiful book to flip through and get design ideas, but it is the first time I've ever thought about decorating from a deeper perspective. Anita's insights as a therapist are helping me re-shape my ideas for what I want in the spaces in my home and provides a template to ask the right questions. I plan to re-do a few corners and feel so much more open and creative with Anita's help!

Home Therapy initially impressed me with it’s beautiful photography, but what surpassed it’s exquisite eye candy was the depth and emotional aspects that therapist Anita Yokota explores. I never imagined that how your home is decorated and arranged, can have such a monumental impact on your quality of being. I encourage anyone who values a peaceful, harmonious environment to purchase this book asap. In fact, it’s a wonderful gift to others too.Bravissimo to Anita’s celebration of the therapeutic home environment, you will not be disappointed…

I am trying to recall this book for this review but it was so beige I can’t remember anything positive.

This is the perfect coffee table book for my living room. The colour is pleasing and it matches the aesthetic of my loving room. The content is interesting as well.

Verry good book and fast shiping.

Of all the organization books I've purchased over the years, this one was more digestible that the others. I need this book in a bad way.

Livro chegou sujo, aspecto de mofo, e todo enrugado (com certeza foi molhado)... Péssimas condições.
