Happier at Home

Inspired by a sudden wave of 'homesickness' for her own abode, bestselling author Gretchen Rubin embarks on a new, nine-month journey to transform her living space into a sanctuary of happiness. Following her groundbreaking work in "The Happiness Project," Rubin dedicates a school year, from September to May, to exploring how to make home a place that calms, energizes, and frees her to take risks, while also appreciating the joy already present. This deeply personal yet universally resonant project tackles monthly themes, ranging from managing possessions and enhancing marriage to optimizing time and navigating parenthood. Rubin experiments with concrete, manageable resolutions, even coaxing her family to participate. Blending memoir, scientific insights, philosophy, and practical experimentation, "Happier at Home" offers readers a compelling blueprint to cultivate greater simplicity, comfort, and love within their own homes, ultimately inspiring a more fulfilling domestic life.
