The Home That Loves You Back: 9-Month Guided Home Harmonising Project

$1,200 for an entire 9 months of live webinars and personal guidance.

A month-by-month deep dive is the kindest and most effective way to outgrow crusty old patterns, while honouring your life-history and personal style. Bring the best of your past into making space for a fresh, lovable future.
You may be a ball of energy, creating good things in the world, but the cost shows up in your home.

Maybe you want hand-holding to triumph over home CHAOS (Can’t Have Anyone Over Syndrome), and other limitations of a mind that loves order, but can't get around to washing that dish, and making it happen.

Maybe your big dream is as simple as looking forward to dinnertime together, an expert-style clean-up, and going to bed with every important thing done.

Decluttering can be as natural as exhaling, once your inner world aligns. The result is more love for the possessions that you realise you dearly need. No bleak minimalism in sight.

You have plenty of time.

Unfolding over 9 months, Katie and Cecilia will work their practical magic on you, your nervous system, and your life. As each room in your house finds its groove, so do you. Our work is known for its original, insightful approach, which prioritises embodiment and human systems.

Your eyes will be opened to the physical obstacles strewn through your daily life. Together, we will set ourselves and our loved ones up, so relief and celebration become the energiser of your home life.

The Big Picture

This series works with your home as a living whole. Each session focuses on one ordinary but influential space, showing how a small, well-chosen change there can support rhythm and flow throughout your home life. Like learning a language, each session builds on the last, as your home project takes shape and you graduate to the next level.

Across the series, you’ll learn a succession of well-established design frameworks, drawn from ecology, nervous-system aware practice, and thoughtful design traditions: Ayurveda, Japanese Tea Ceremony, Lean Manufacturing, Permaculture, and more. Be surprised by how many spot-on solutions they have in common, to the problems we thought we were stuck with.

By the end of the project, your own home will hold the patterns that calm and energise you for decades to come.

Webinars are live, hands-on, and participatory. Group size is limited, so you can get to know and care about each other as we progress, and be each other's inspiration. You will make real changes in the shelves, nooks, and vibe of each room, with time for questions and shared reflection during the webinars. Clear ideas are introduced and immediately applied, so learning happens through doing. Be inspired by the aesthetic of Cecilia’s story-rich slideshows, and let Katie guide your body to discover new inner realms, and deep-felt readiness for new ways of being.

The Kitchen Sink Reset: Where Home Culture Begins

June 28th, 2026

A zen-influenced sink setup can calm conflict, ease your nervous system, and shift household culture. Learn design patterns that turn daily friction into flow, reward and connection.

The kitchen sink and surrounds are the emotional crossroads of the home. This small, high-pressure zone quietly shapes how we relate to one another, how safe we feel, and whether daily life flows or frays. When it works, conversation softens and meals happen naturally. When it doesn’t, tension accumulates fast.

Cecilia shows how to set up your sink as a functioning ecosystem rather than a moral battleground, that fits your personality now, and allows evolution in the future. You’ll learn practical design patterns drawn from Japanese culture and Permaculture that reduce friction, increase clarity, and remove the hidden triggers that push nervous systems into fight-or-flight.

You will reset your sink in real time and feel the difference in your body. Many participants find this shift spreads quickly into cooking, cooperation, and a gentler home atmosphere. This initiation session with its stories and rewards gives a preview of design strategies to come, getting you excited about the sessions ahead.

Space for Grace

July 26th, 2026

In over-busy homes, the first things to be sacrificed are the important-but-not-urgent parts of life. Rest, reflection, breath, stretching, creativity, and precious daydreaming all require more than good intentions. They need a place that supports them. When no such place exists, we drift. When an inviting space is waiting for us, we return.

Once this place is established, something shifts inside as well. The nervous system softens, meaningful practices become easier to approach, and a different pace of life begins to feel possible. One small, well-made place can become a steady point around which our soul-life reorganises.

Design a Garden of Food in Your Fridge and Pantry

August 30th, 2026

Turn your fridge and pantry into a colourful, living food system. When food is visible and grouped cleverly, the ingredients themselves will suggest what to cook next. The meals are fresh, and the cooking process itself becomes enjoyable.

As the space clears, people often notice a wider shift. Shopping becomes simpler. Cleanup is lighter, and good food doesn’t get forgotten. The cooks can be better dinner companions, saving their best energy for enjoyment. These design patterns become rewarding new habits that can spread naturally into other areas of home life.

Enchanted Workspaces: Creating Conditions for Focus and Flow
September 27th, 2026

Turn your workspace into a zone of clarity and creative momentum, whether it's work from home, writing a novel, or a place for basic life admin. We will use design-power and a process of ‘curious enquiry’ to support freely-chosen focus, remove road blocks, and help meaningful work happen without angst.

You’ll learn how to bring related things together so they go “click.” We will minimise documents and create to-do lists in a way that elicits enthusiasm. Expect to be blown away by the power of protecting clear space, and the lightness it brings. Rather than pushing yourself harder or giving up, you shape conditions so beginning the dreaded task feels natural and staying with it becomes not only possible, but satisfying.

A well-designed workspace can become a quiet ally in bringing your ideas into the world.

Honourable Bathroom, Loveable Laundry

October 25th, 2026

You’ll learn how to create a sense of spaciousness and quiet luxury in these small, often unappreciated rooms. Using patterns from Japanese ritual you will arrange humble items beautifully, eliminate clutter confidently, and step into a new level of honouring yourself. When once-tedious tasks like laundry become inherently satisfying, all of life transforms.

Experience bathing and somatic practices that can shift your mood, energy, and nervous system state in minutes.

Less Stuff, More Merry

November 22nd, 2026

How to keep the thrills of Christmas and the festive season alive, while avoiding the pitfalls. Learn new ways to hold gatherings in a way you genuinely enjoy.

Explore and gain new perspectives on:

• Doable ways to declutter and reset your gathering space to get you excited and hopeful. Remove subliminal sources of stress. Beautify without buying a thing.
• Resourceful Gift-giving. How to gracefully request and give desirable gifts, creating value, not clutter.
• Creative ways to have warm exchanges, especially with relatives we find challenging.

Christmas is a gift that comes pre-made through our culture. We can customise it to be truly worthwhile and even unexpectedly wondrous.

O-Soji: Put a Bow on Your Year

December 20th, 2026

At the pressure-cooker days at the peak of the festive season, this hour together is a time to see where doing less can be the solution to your problems.

The Japanese celebrate the final weeks of the year with an 'Honorable Big Clean’: O-soji. They close loops. They pay or forgive debts, wash and fix everything, even the dog, in preparation to start a new year light and fresh and encouraged.

This year, so shall we.

Storage

January 24th, 2027

After almost a year of subtraction together, in this session we do a final refining of our storage systems: Garages, boxes, things behind doors. We will create intuitive structures so you can find objects right away, no fossicking, all using as few containers as possible.

'Storage systems' become 'retrieval systems', holding items that clearly support your present and future in practical or yet-to-be-discovered ways. We will create a ‘museum of you’ with select items that remind you powerfully of the life you have lived, and distinguish true treasures from 'expired' possessions.

Make systems so that no object remains homeless or unemployed in your life.

We will compare storage patterns of diverse cultures and ecosystems, ask our 'inner selves' what's going on, and get permission to do things differently.

It's not revolution, it's rebirth.

Protect Your Dreams

February 28th 2027

In this final session, we fluff up our bedrooms for rest, safety, and renewal. We make them the place that only holds our heart's desires, and excludes all else.

At this ending, we acknowledge the new choices and paths that are now open to us, as designers and harmonisers, and the once-unlikely dreams we can now make happen.
