Become a Healthy Homemaker

Book excerpt: How can our home support our physical health? How can it help to manage and reduce the spiraling stress levels in our life? The book "Become a Healthy Homemaker" refocuses our attention on the physiological and psychological interactions that occur between the homemaker or essentially housewife/wife and the living place we call home. In keeping society healthy, happy, well-nourished and balanced, the home manager plays a pivotal role, since she is called upon to be a chef, a financial wizard, an interior decorator, a doctor, a nurse, a psychologist, a wife, mother, daughter-in-law, friend and social worker—all rolled into one! The author Rupa Chatterjee hopes this book will be of practical use with regard to health & nutrition, first aid, interior decoration, time management, organizing household chores, cleaning house and keeping it secured, besides maintenance of gadgets. The book has important tips on energy conservation and interpersonal relationships which completes the happiness expected inside a home.
