Writer and yogi, Alice Elgie, invites you to step in, pull up a chair, pour yourself a cup of tea — or perhaps a hot chocolate — and lean in close for conversation about nature, writing life, child-led learning, simplicity, crafts, yoga and mindfulness, life and death, and much much more, all with a good dash of slow: slow for the environment, slow for community, and most importantly slow for ourselves.
Available here and also on Spotify.
In this episode I discuss:
What simplicity means to me as a wanderer
Leaving behind the 9-5 city life
My experience of a small village in Spain
Simplicity-themed poetry and readings
