Housekeeping Skills

Tackling the chores in a messy and dirty house can be overwhelming. There is so much that needs to be done that sometimes it is just easier to drop onto the couch and binge watch TV. Unfortunately, ignoring the chores won't make the mess go away.

Wash the dishes, do the laundry, mop the floors, scrub the toilets, make the beds, vacuum the rugs...the list goes on and on, with little time to stop, breathe, and take in your beautiful surroundings. Now you can.

This book challenges you to put more than elbow grease into your daily routine. You'll learn how to spirit yourself away during mundane chores as you muse over thought-provoking Zen koans like If the kitchen is the heart of the home, what is the heart of the kitchen? What is the color of clean? If the purpose of cleaning is to remove dirt, what is the purpose of dirt? What fills empty spaces? Whose footprints are on your floor?
