Finding Home Within
In this short film, learn about the origin and the essence of the Home Within process, and how, by applying this to all “five levels of wellness” in your home, you can live each day in your power place, and be fully supported in living your highest purpose.
Come home to yourself
If you have a home that needs design help, you have a powerful opportunity. You can create an ordinary home that reinforces old habits and old ways of being, or you can create a beautiful, comfortable, sanctuary of intention that fully supports and empowers who you truly are, and who you are becoming.
Through decades of interior design and holistic wellness experience, my partner, Joe McGuire, and I have created the Home Within process to help you live your highest vision — your heaven on earth — in the place where you spend the most time, the place where you have the greatest impact, and the place that has the greatest impact on you.
Home is where your wellness is
Home Within is a branch of Joe McGuire Design focused on more than just interior design. It’s about prioritizing your holistic health and wellbeing throughout the design of your home.
Our homes and our health are two of the biggest investments we make in life. When we spend 90% of our time indoors, and most of that at home, doesn’t it make sense that our homes should be designed for wellness?
There are minimal costs for these optional added services, but the short and longterm health benefits may turn out to be priceless.
Natural, healthy finishes & furniture
Ordinary paint, carpet and furnishings are often made with toxic chemicals that off-gas into our well-sealed homes, where the air is recirculated and we inhale it day and night. Asthma, fatigue, headaches, poor sleep and other serious health issues can be the result.
The best way to fix this problem is at the beginning, in the design process. With a little extra intention and care, we can help you create a natural healthy home, without compromising style, comfort or budget.
Next Level Wellness Features
The Home Within process starts with helping you clarify your personal wellness vision. And by doing so at the outset of your project, we can incorporate innovative ideas that can turn your home into your personal wellness haven.
Why not design your bedroom for the prefect night’s sleep? Or design your kitchen to simplify healthy eating? How about adding a sauna or cold plunge to your primary bathroom? Or creating spaces perfectly conducive for exercise, meditation or connection with nature? The sky’s the limit when your wellness vision is built-in from the ground up.
Homes Filled with Positive Energy
With extensive backgrounds in meditation and healing arts, we have found that working with the physical aspects of our homes is not always enough to help us feel fully at peace and at home. There are non-physical aspects of spaces and places that can influence the way we feel. These include emotional, energetic and even sacred elements of the land and home.
By acknowledging and working with these intangible elements through the Home Within energy clearing and balancing process, it's possible to create spaces where we feel truly welcomed, deeply supported and fully alive.
Better for People & the Planet
When we build homes in an intentional way, choosing natural healthy materials and working in harmony with the land, it’s not only better for the people who live here now, it’s better for future generations and the planet as a whole.
Designing and building a home is an opportunity not just to do less harm, but to do more good. This is why we prioritize sustainable and regenerative approaches and materials throughout the design process. And it’s why we are taking significant steps to not only offset the carbon footprint of our projects, but to protect habitat, biodiversity and indigenous communities.
