Cecilia Macaulay
Cecilia Macaulay is an ecosystem designer and the originator of the Togetherness Method of home harmonising. Her self-maintaining, Japan-influenced approach is especially resonant for people with dreams to chase, who are living with ADHD or a sensitive, easily overwhelmed nervous system.
She is a Permaculture designer of great enthusiasm, who has spent over three decades running workshops internationally. She uses designing (not whining!) as a way to save us from ourselves and create paradise for all creatures, starting with what we already have. The 'Togetherness' method is easy to remember, and gets called upon every day, to untangle obstacles, to connect better with the people in our lives, and with ourselves.
Cecilia's 'how-to' guide for sharing homes smoothly appears in David Holmgren's book 'Retrosuburbia'. She is the author of the upcoming book 'How to Create a Sacred Space, Anywhere in Your Home', and co-author (with Professor Yukio Ota) of LoCoS: Visual Language for Global Communication.
She is available for private home harmonising in Australia and Japan, which feels like cubby-house building for grown-ups. She is often found in exotic locations, where her clients tempt her to stick around and supervise, till their paradise vision has taken hold in body, mind, daily habits and relationships.
If you need guidance on force-free ways to set up joyful homes and communities, Cecilia might be the missing link, so reach out to her.
Her hobbies include sewing, dinner parties, Japanese tea ceremony, library books, and petting other people's cats in the street.
