The Scottish Art of Living Slowly : An Invitation to Rediscover Nature in a Digital World
Molly Ella
Step away from hustle culture, leave devices at the door and explore a life lived more slowly, with practical activities inspired by a year in the Scottish Highlands. Written by wildlife conservationist turned content creator Molly Ella, this nurturing book will take you through a slow year amongst the beautiful Scottish landscape. Each monthly chapter is based around a concept, from ""curiosity"" to ""gratitude"" to ""plodding"", and combines Molly's experiences growing up on the Isle of Arran, working in conservation and living in a Tiny Home in the Scottish Highlands.
Key lessons and ideas for practical activities are woven throughout, helping us live more intentionally wherever we are based. Each chapter features: Theme: emerge, inhabit, nostalgia, imagine – the concept of each chapter links with Scottish traditions and what's happening in natureTopic: the importance of deep work for creativity, gently romanticizing your life, encouraging meaningful connections, planning vs being present, and moreNature spot: read about red squirrels, capercaillie, kingfishers, wildflowers, mushrooms, rock pools, trees and even slugsActivity ideas: start a nature diary, take part in citizen science, create your own curriculum, devise deep work rituals and mark the solstices. Molly gently inspires us to strive for a life that genuinely serves us – even if it's not what society expects – demonstrating that connecting with nature is the key to allowing our real selves to emerge.
