Reviews"I loved the sentiment Helena showed toward nature which allowed me to slow down, breathe, and enjoy visualizing animals that were quite vivid. I loved the vision of the snail and the significance of all of God's creatures. Thank you, Helena, for allowing me, once again, to enjoy life." --Janice in France, YouTuber "Deeply inspiring. Helena shares her unique vision for living a beautiful and intentional life. After reading this book, you will feel inspired to go out and connect with nature, pay attention to the little details of your life, and tune into your inner voice." --Sophie Daquis, Malama Life , YouTuber "Helena's words speak to your soul. An awakening we all need to live in alignment with our higher being. She shows you that no matter where you are in the world you can take charge of your life and that you have all the tools you need within you. A must-read to feel joy and connection to ourselves that we all crave." --Sam Fournier, YouTuber " Slow Living is a work of art. The words and advice on slow living in this wonderful book offer peace, insight, reflection, and wisdom to any reader. I observed a sense of calm within myself as I read its pages and appreciated the beautiful pictures. Helena implores us to slow down and cherish the wonder that exists in our world, and in doing so, come back to ourselves. I believe Helena reveals many of the secrets to genuine happiness and life satisfaction within these pages." --Andrea Henkels, author of Herman Heals His Heart "Helena's book couldn't have come at a better time in an ever-increasingly fast-paced and distracting world. Her sensitivity, thoughtfulness, and intentionality are just what our bruised world needs right now. Slow Living highlights the importance of being present in the moment and coming home to yourself holistically. Full of thoughtful reflection and insight, this book will be a gentle yet essential reminder to reconnect to ourselves, our loved ones, and nature." --Alanna O'Neil, author of The Art of Picnics and The Outdoor Table "This book is a gentle reminder and guide on how to be present with oneself, with nature, the world around and with ones current stage of life. Following these simple, yet powerful, activities described in this book will lead to a happier outlook on life." --Bex of The Witches Cookery , YouTuber
