Slow seasons : a creative guide to reconnecting with nature the Celtic way
Steer, Rosie2023
Books, Manuscripts
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 and equinoxes - and their rough 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. By slowing down and paying attention to the ebbs and flows of nature, we can find moments of calm whenever we need them.
