Slow Seasons: A Creative Guide to Reconnecting with Nature the Celtic Way Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 67 ratings

Woman's Own Book Club 2023

In her late-twenties, feeling utterly overwhelmed by the pace of modern city life, Rosie Steer found solace in the traditions she had been brought up with, influenced by her Scottish roots, that celebrated nature and observed the small steady shifts in the seasons.

The Celtic Wheel of the year is an ancient seasonal cycle that aligns with solar events – the solstices, equinoxes and their midpoints. For each mini-season, Rosie shares nature notes for what we can look out for as the days get warmer or cooler, the nights longer or shorter, alongside activities, things to make, flowers or fruit to forage, seasonal recipes to enjoy and a modern take on the traditional celebrations.

As the Wheel turns towards Yule on 22nd December, we can enjoy foraging foliage and pinecones to make Greenery garlands and wreaths, decorate and light a Yule candle to mark the shortest day of the year, and fill our homes with smells of citrus and spice making Festive fudge as a delicious homemade gift.

By slowing down and paying attention to the ebbs and flows of nature, we can find moments of calm whenever we need them.

Lovely Book. Must be the season of the Witch!
I love this book and its principles have got me through a particularly challenging winter. It’s taught me to slow down and be present instead of being in a rush to get to spring.

Rosie, honestly, you’ve created something truly wonderful! The design, the layout, the words, the images, the cover. It’s all DIVINE. This was the book I needed to help me further enrich and embody my Celtic way of living, (that has long since been forgotten in my family but) traditions I will establish fully and pass on to my own. For anyone wanting a slower, reflective and gentle way of living this book is sure to delight as a gift to yourself or someone else this season.

I love this book! So many lovely ideas for each season. It's autumn/halloween time at the moment (Samhain 😎 this book was educational) so I've been out foraging for pine cones to make a lovely garland, and I can't wait to make some of the recipes too.

Really recommend this if you want to slow down and enjoy the seasons more.
