Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The perfect housekeeping guide for somebody who is overwhelmed with their mess and can't figure out how to start.' -Lifehacker'An accessible guide on how to clean for normal people.' -Livestrong'It actually changed my life and my home; I'm serious.' -Book RiotFinally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a 'f\*cking mess' that we're desperate to fix. Unf\*ck 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 traditional homemakers, DIYers, 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 advice relies on a 20/10 system (20 minutes of cleaning followed by a 10-minute break; no marathon cleaning allowed) to help you develop lifelong habits. It motivates you to embrace a new lifestyle in manageable sections so you can actually start applying the tactics as you progress. For everyone stuck between The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Adulting, 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.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Pediatricians say you should but it's okay if you don't. The hospital says, 'Breast is best,' but sends you home with formula 'just in case.' Your sister-in-law says, 'Of course you should!' Your mother says, 'I didn't, and you turned out just fine.' Celebrities are photographed nursing in public, yet breastfeeding mothers are asked to cover up in malls and on airplanes. Breastfeeding is a private act, yet everyone has an opinion about it. How did feeding our babies get so complicated Journalist and infant health advocate Kimberly Seals Allers breaks breastfeeding out of the realm of 'personal choice' and shows our broader connection to an industrialized food system that begins at birth, the fallout of feminist ideals, and the federal policies that are far from family friendly. The Big Letdown uncovers the multibillion-dollar forces battling to replace mothers' milk and the failure of the medical establishment to protect infant health. Weaving together research and personal stories with original reporting on medicine, big pharma, and hospitals, Kimberly Seals Allers shows how mothers and babies have been abandoned by all the forces that should be supporting families from the start--and what we can do to help.
