EXACTLY what I needed to get through my creative block!

I have had this book for a while -- but I finally picked it up as I was trying to make some choices for a new house I'm moving into.....I have been conflicted with my own personal style for a long time now. The questions stimulated me to really dig into what I wanted! It is more than a design book - it's a book to help you find yourself and create a living space that is suited just for YOU!!!! GET THIS BOOK!

This has been a truly life changing book!

I finally understood why my home looked beautiful, but I really wasn't happy living in it. Once I did the work writing down my feelings about each item in a room, how I felt about them, acknowledging where they come from, if I was I happy with this item, did I really want this item and do I really need this item. Barbara Kaplan helped me understand why the beautiful watercolor paintings in my bedroom were wrong for me. They were a gift from my first husband's mother; and the one item we fought over in the divorce. Every time I looked at them they brought out angry feelings, which I was not paying attention to.By using the three elements of Bajaro: Understanding, Accepting and Allowing I was free to redecorate my whole home as a true reflex ion of myself. It is truly a sacred space that is stress-free and cheerful.Thanks to Bajaro I had the confidence to make my dreams come true.

The Very First Spiritual Book on Interior Design!

This book is a wonderful guide to creating personal sacred spaces. Kaplan generously shares her methods on connecting to the interior design process whether it's between designer and client, or someone performing the task alone. The exercises gently lead to an invaluable path of self-discovery, awareness, self-confidence, creative expression and empowerment. These are fabulous tools, not only for the design process, but for life. Kaplan has the ability to "ground" us and send us "soaring" at the same time.
