In to a hectic world, with all the pressures, busyness and lack of hours in the day, comes this book of calm and wisdom to remind us that we're only human. Full of gorgeous illustrations, reading this beautiful book reminds us of the wider, natural world and the part we have to play in it.
Remembering, being mindful of the seasons and living in tune with the natural rhythms of life bring benefits to mind and body.
This is a book that asks to be lived with; not read in one go, but opened up regularly throughout the year so that one might 'tune in' to the various seasons. There are meditations, recipes, advice on gardening and stargazing.
This Almanac encourages its reader to live mindfully, with gratitude and openness. Surely, a recipe book for a happy life.

If you, like me, are looking for a daily meditation reader, and a focus each month, this is the book for you. It not only has a mediation for each month, but it has information that I find so interesting, about plants and constellations. It truly is a useful almanac based in mindfulness and science. I would highly recommend this to just about anyone who has an interest in those two areas.

It reminds me of a secular devotional that helps me to slow down and think about my life on a day to day basis.

I received this book for free to view from Net Galley for a limited time, but iI am going to purchase it in order to take full advantage of it.

It is easy to recommend this absolutely gorgeous book. Already a nature lover? Feeling like you need more of the natural world in your life? Either way, there is so much to be enjoyed in this beautifully illustrated title.

Garden, stargaze, visualize, pay attention and more in these pages. Readers will hopefully be inspired in their day to day life as they read.

The book is organized by month and season. The authors hope you will dip in and out anywhere that you like. There is always something intriguing to contemplate. Each entry has a theme and icon. To name a few, there are icons representing well being, wisdom, foraging and plant knowledge among others.

Take a deep breath and enjoy. I may just buy the hard copy of this one when it is published.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.

What an extremely insightful book. I found The Leaping Hare Nature Almanac by Leaping Hare Press to have a ton of helpful tips. As a beginner I found this to be a great treat of a read, and a light one.

As a registered yoga instructor, I adored the meditation pages! These are a great way to relax. Also featured in the book is information on plants, herbs, and how to use them as common ailments.

As someone who adores trees, I love the depth of information regarding the life cycle of these leafy wonders throughout the year. Another thing I loved is the month-to-month celestial bodies available to be seen. Bright illustrations bring comfort and it’s a great book to cozy up with. I highly recommend.

Thank you to NetGalley and Leaping Hare Press of Quatro Publishing Group for a temporary e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I received this book as an ARC via Netgalley.

Love the illustrations. They are simple, modern, clean and colorful.

The introduction hooked me at “forest bathing”.

Being mindful of the natural world has therapeutic benefits indeed and this book is a great reminder.

Facts about plants, gardening, constellations and some recipes thrown in enhance this book.

The meditations in this book would make great audiobook material.

This book would make a great gift for the gardener, nature lover or holistic minded.

A gorgeous month-by-month book to uplift the spirit and mind using the beauty and benefits of nature. The book contains Recipes, exercises, natural rituals, and affirmations which are all based on the month of the year and the season. It is bursting with mindfulness exercises, meditation techniques, and practical outdoor activities like cultivating plants and flowers and crafting items. A charming book that makes you feel warm and happy. I will be purchasing a physical copy of this book to  myself and recommending to others who I feel may also appreciate it's wisdom and beauty.

This is a beautiful little Almanac. I have enjoyed its peaceful wisdom - of plants, of practices, of relections, of serenity and of ideas. We all need simpled whispered wisdom such as 'when you feel like things are getting on top of you in life, nurturing plants can help you get back in control.' March and 'Observing water in motion makes you mindful of what is required in the present moment.' June
The pictures are cute too.

Exactly what I was hoping for. It's where you'll go to look up fascinating tidbits when more screen time is just not on your mind. It's where you'll send kids so that they learn how to appreciate almanacs and nature. It's fully in-depth and engaging. I'm grabbing copies of this for my nature-minded friends this holiday season.

This is a cute little mindfulness guide that can spark ideas for connecting more with nature throughout the year. I like the idea of a secular "devotional" so that is why I wanted to check it out.

I found the writing to be simplistic, like maybe it is meant for teens or even middle schoolers. But the heart of it has good intentions.
