Book of Leaves

Some Positivity in this Pandemic

Welcome to the first Book of Leaves podcast episode of 2020. What a time to be alive eh?I wanted to ease into this season with a little message of positivity in this crazy time. I talk a little bit about mental health and suggestions for things to do to keep you busy and also talk about how it's OK to do absolutely nothing! And I read a poem for you because why not?I'll link particular suggestions I made below so you can find them. Stay home, stay safe, sending you lots of love.

An Irish podcast where I interview business owners, activists and other everyday people, to learn how they contribute to living sustainably. By educating ourselves, we can then take a leaf from their book to add to our own way of eco-friendly living! <a href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/2611371" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get bonus content on Patreon</a> Hosted on Acast.
