Welcome to Slow Into The Seasons:
A place of heartfelt words from a quieter life.
A place to visit when you need to take a breath.
A place to be reminded of the joy of slowing down…
Hello! I’m Alice Elgie: nature lover, devoted Yoginī, wanderer, ponderer, and perpetual seeker.
Writing slowly on my 1960s typewriter—or with fountain pen & paper—I share heartfelt, yoga-and-nature-inspired words from a rather nomadic life.
Wherever I am, I strive to walk in my surroundings and really see the seasons unfold, as well as make time to read (generally a classic or travel and nature-infused story), study (Sanskrit and Yoga Philosophy), and write (currently a novel focused on connection—to land, self, and each other—set in the Scottish Highlands).
You can read a little more in this interview about my life with the lovely JUNO magazine.
👉 If you choose to become a subscriber, welcome! Please know I limit contact to just one email each month as I don’t believe in bombarding your inbox when you could be out enjoying the world around you!
In addition, if you enjoy little inspirations as you journey through life then I invite you to become a 🌟 Slow Friend 🌟 and journal with me throughout 2025!
Email me to be added to this small community at no cost—the paywall is simply to keep this space a little more private and for those who feel able to/wish to, support my offerings.
Each month you’ll receive a short “Walk & Talk” video from wherever I am wandering, where I share my thoughts on the month and encourage deeper self-reflection by choosing a word for us to explore together through a journalling exercise. We’ll also get to enjoy conversations about our explorations in the private comments area.
As a little extra, I share occasional pre-recorded guided meditations for you to enjoy.
I hope you’ll consider joining this mindfulness and journalling community for gentle folk.
However you choose to be here, I’m glad you are!
With love,
Alice
