Unf--k Your Habitat

You're Better Than Your Mess

De: Rachel Hoffman

Narrado por: Emily Woo Zeller

Finally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a "f--king mess" that we "really need to get around to fixing one day". Unf--k Your Habitat is for anyone who has been left behind by traditional aspirational systems - the ones that ignore single people with full-time jobs, people without kids but living with roommates, and people with mental illnesses or physical limitations. Most organizational books are aimed at stay-at-home moms and people who seem to have unimaginable amounts of free time. They assume we all iron our sheets, have linen napkins to match our table runners, and can keep plants alive for longer than a week. Basically, they ignore most of us living here in the real world.

Interspersed with lists and challenges, this practical, no-nonsense guide helps you develop lifelong habits. It motivates you to embrace a new lifestyle in manageable sections so you can start applying the tactics as you progress. This philosophy is more realistic than aspirational, but the goal is the same: not everyone will have a showcase of a home, but whatever your habitat, you deserve for it to bring you happiness, not stress.

Reseñas de la Crítica

" Unf--k Your Habitat has the potential to change your life and to improve your mental outlook in truly beautiful ways." (Sara Benincasa, author of Real Artists Have Day Jobs)

No more marathoning

I receive so many compliments on my home's cleaniless now. I am a recovering marathon cleaner. I enjoy the mini-challenges and grateful that I get to come home to a clean space daily.

Blunt but fun

The author wrote it with very easy flow for communication and getting the point across. Some ideas were good but the book isn’t just for those that find themselves in a loop but for those that are totally clueless they even are in a loop. Though, I wish I’d borrowed this from a library, rather than fully purchase it.

Continuous swearing

Should have known better from the title. It detracts from the authors intelligence. I wont finish it because of that.

Awesome life changing and doable!

If I could give this book 10 stars I would. It is a great book for the rest of us. Or for the marathon cleaners and declutterers who freak out once a year or otherwise just give up. Love love love the book!

Helpful

As a working wife and mother, this book put things in perspective. I feel a lot less overwhelmed using the approach outlined in the book. Great narration.
