I just learned about your work through a wonderful article on mindful housekeeping by Amy Maclin. I enjoyed the article so much, in fact, that I pre-ordered your book AND subscribed to Body & Soul magazine. Also posted a blurb about the article on my blog. I look forward to your book. Thanks for validating my feelings about housekeeping, too.

Stopping over on a recommendation by A Design so Vast. Really enjoyed this post and I’m look forward to exploring your blog a little.

For the moment, I wanted to say that your description for “Let the spin cycle” stop is very appropriate for me right now. What an absolutely fantastic way to be reminded of reality. I am so guilty of spinning the same thoughts over and over in my mind until they get out of control. I like this, it’s a bit of wake-up call. Thank you.

i am so delighted that i discovered your blog…there are so many out there but yours is a divine spot in my day. thank you for sharing your wisdom and reminding me to breathe. recently i’ve been giving thanks when i do our laundry…thanks for the washing machine that works, for the bodies & souls that wore the clothes, the dryer that dries and the money to make it all operate.

I love this post; a metaphor for life and finding peace. I must admit that ironing has become one of my favourite domestic chores over the last couple of years; I love the way I can steam clean my pores while smoothing out the creases in my life! I always feel a lovely sense of satisfaction seeing a pile of freshly ironed clothing. Of course there are lots of items that I simply fold and put away…but I am grateful for the ritual. I’ll apply your insights to my entire laundry routine now Thank you.

Just like me, Tracie. So just like me! Except I only looked for half my life. Now, no one can take the laundry away from me. I know a good thing when I see it. Happy to see you.

I think I have been looking for a Fluff and Fold service for my life instead of doing the wash myself. Thank you for the beautiful and timely reminder!
