“Michelle’s book, Happy Inside, is an essential message for our times – she is connecting the dots of comfort, wellness, calm, rejuvenation, self-care and warm hospitality, showing that physical personal space has a spiritual relationship to ourselves.” Donna Karan
“A happy home is a fundamental building block of happiness, and Michelle’s book is an essential, step-by-step guide to creating a home we love.” Arianna Huffington
Happy Inside written by Michelle Ogundehin – the woman The Sunday Times calls an “interiors guru” – is set to become absolutely required reading in our ‘Age of Anxiety’.
Michelle lives and breathes her philosophy. She is passionate about the power of your surroundings to enhance your wellbeing. Her own home is her ultimate test bed, and she enjoys good health, great sleep, abundant energy and an enduringly youthful demeanour as a result of practising what she preaches.
Now she wants to share that knowledge and insight with as many people as possible, to empower them to create environments in which to thrive.
And in the face of globally rising rates of chronic illness and mental health issues (even before Covid-19), the creation of a supportive and restorative home has never been more important. As she puts it, “I don’t care how you fold your socks, but I do care how you feel.”
master your space, master your life
Mixing the knowledge gained from 20 years of editing interiors magazines and her early training as an architect, Happy Inside skilfully combines practical information with personal insight.
It’s an approach that’s super accessible which makes the goals achievable. Because, armed with the right information Michelle believes that people can achieve much more than they think, regardless of tight budgets or whether their space is small or large, rented or owned.
Happy Inside makes you reconsider your relationship with your home — potentially your most powerful ally in the pursuit of good health and happiness.
