The Self-Care Year reveals how to re-connect with your body and mind and engage with your surroundings, how to slow down, live in tune with the seasons, and pay attention to the present moment.

Each season is different and special, bountiful and beautiful in its own unique way. The book is divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter and covers how you can harness the changing seasons and take inspiration from the natural world, with bite-sized self-care practices, projects and mind and body exercises for each chapter.

Offering tips and rituals for better sleep, yoga positions, breathing and meditation exercises, as well as simple craft projects and seasonal affirmations, this book is for those who are seeking a slower pace and want to carve out quiet, mindful moments in their lives. Whether you're a lover of the first buds of spring, a summer sun worshipper, a fan of the fall leaves as the year turns or a winter wonderland devotee, there is something for everyone.


The Self-Care Year: Reflect and Recharge with Simple Seasonal Rituals Reviews


  • Evelyn

    Lovely book that you can easily dip in and out of with a focus on mindfulness and healthy habits.

  • Crystal Johnston

    Love the idea of self-care activities based on the seasons. Really great and different options to choose from.

  • Lady Megan Fischer

    This is a nice little book that offers several ideas for taking good care of yourself, all with a seasonal focus. I was drawn to that, thinking that moving with the seasons is such a nice thing to do.

    The illustrations in the book are truly lovely, and I think some of the ideas given are sound; it all just felt a bit surface for me, and I was hoping for a bit more.

    This likely would be a great starting point. But if you’ve read a lot already, it might feel a bit disappointing.

  • Bibi

    A sweet and cozy book with pretty illustrations about little self-care things you can do during each season. A good reminder to be present and mindful just enjoying the season and what it uniquely brings.

  • Elisabeth

    The subtitle is more accurate than the title - this is a book of seasonal rituals. It does that reasonably well, it's just not what I expected.

  • María

    Was a gift. It’s a short, cozy read, with incredibly beautiful illustrations. Nothing mind blowing inside but perfect as a “coffee table book”.
