social context. It can help readers of any age and sexual
orientation to change their own behaviour and to recognise when
they are being controlled. "I can honestly say that without reading
this book (9 times no less ) I don't think that I would be here
today, relaxed in my own home with my children that I love so
much."
Embrace off-grid green living and imagine a more sustainable future with the original guide to self-sufficiency.
For over 40 years, John Seymour has inspired thousands to make more eco-friendly choices with his advice on living sustainably. The New Complete Book of Self-Sufficiency offers step-by-step instructions on everything from chopping trees to harnessing solar power; from growing fruit and vegetables, and preserving and pickling your harvest, to baking bread, brewing beer, and making cheese. Seymour shows you how to live off the land, running your own smallholding or homestead, and raising (and butchering) livestock.
In a world of mass production, intensive farming, and food miles, Seymour's words offer an alternative: a celebration of investing time, labour, and love into the things we need. While we won't all be able to move to the countryside, we can appreciate the need to eat food that has been grown ethically or create things we can cherish, using skills that have been handed down through generations. This bestselling classic is a balm for anyone who has ever sought solace away from the madness of modern life.
Busy business owner and coach, Jackie Jarvis, shares her personal
journey with honesty and humour. Reaching a point in her life when
she felt an urge to slow down and be truer to her heart's desire,
she found that the struggle with herself was the biggest challenge
of all. She writes about what many of us, living busy, fast paced
lives feel. She touches on what deep down we all have the greatest
longing for but at the same time are afraid to reach out for, and
afraid to give ourselves permission to have. If, like Jackie, you
listen to 'The Voice of Slow' and what it has to say to you, you
will become inspired to follow her path to slowing down, stressing
less and enjoying life more. Read slowly to appreciate the
important messages here for you. *This book is based on an earlier
version titled 'In Pursuit of Slow'.'In Pursuit of Slow' was an
Amazon Bestseller in the Top 50 Self Help category.
