The Healthy Home

The Healthy Home is a best-selling book, a way of life, a retreat oasis and the personal home of best-selling author Gina Lazenby. Set on a hilltop near Skipton in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales with magnificent views down the Airedale valley, the original building is a crofter’s cottage with part of its structure dating back nearly 1000 years.
Since then many additions have been made but the biggest changes started when Gina left London in the late 1990s in search of a less stressful life and took residence. Working with her then partner, she started to renovate and update the cottage to make it a modern family home. They set about creating a wonderful healing and nurturing environment embracing the philosophies Gina had learned in her role as co-founder of the Feng Shui Society and CEO of the Feng Shui Network. The Healthy Home book was written from transforming the property from a redundant barn and tiny cottage into a large spacious home that is a living example of what she taught. As a result of the research for creating the building, Gina then wrote her best-selling book The Healthy Home (now out of print). During a 2nd phase of construction in 2002, a large new building was added ( a brand new construction from reclaimed mill stones) with the intention of providing a showcase for creating a healthy home environment and to provide a retreat space for workshops and events. This new building was opened in 2005 and since then Gina has offered many lifestyle events and womens’ retreats.
