520 _aYou have decluttered your personal space, now it is time to tidy up your soundscape. Incoherent dissonance impacts our health more than we may realize. Krause introduces us to methods for turning down the clatter in our lives, restoring a sense of contentment, and reclaiming the calm. Krause shares ways for you to fine-tune your surroundings, improve your sense of wellness, reduce anxiety, and restore a sense of inner peace and productivity to your own acoustic space. -- adapted from jacket
