This book, which was a gift from my daughter, is such a treasure to me. It seems to say just what I need to hear at the very time I pick it up. I love reading the blogs that Sandra Carrington-Smith writes on GOLO. She is always such a positive and calming voice and has such insight into the world around her. I'll enjoy my book for many years to come. Jacqui Pearce, Raleigh NC

Compelling and inspirational, Housekeeping for the Soul is an amazing debut offering by Sandra Carrington-Smith. The author applies the 'housekeeping' metaphor flawlessly, reminding us all that reducing chaos and restoring order at the deepest level is key to creating a peaceful and fulfilling existence for ourselves. A wonderful, smooth read that I'll be gifting to many important people in my life. Hopefully this is only the first of many great books by this talented writer!
Highly recommended!

This is one of those books that you hate to finish! Every page in this book is full of insight, inspiration and wonderful exercises. I especially enjoyed the way personal stories were told of different people thoughout the book, and the lessons behind them. I took away so much from this book, and I will be reading it again.

Housekeeping for the Soul: A Practical Guide to Restoring Your Inner Santuary
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is Sandra Carrington-Smith's first book to my knowledge. I couldn't put this book down. It is a concise little jewel. Told in the voice of a wise woman in beautiful allegory, with poignant autobiography and inspirational narrative woven in, "Housekeeping for the Soul: A Practical Guide to Restoring Your Inner Sanctuary" will change you. The way you view your home and your soul has the opportunity to be totally renovated if you follow Carrington-Smith's sage advice. I grew to eagerly anticipate the gems of wisdom at the end of each chapter wherein Carrington-Smith uses the holistic healing knowledge of Voudou and the Orishas/Lwas/Goddesses to crystallize the lessons of the chapter. I highly recommend this book, especially if you wish to renew your soul's house. Now, you may not have ever thought about renewing your soul's house but trust me, after reading this book you'll be glad you did.
