Krickelin’s Life Force from Garden and Sea

A beautiful postcard from the book is included with the order, and if you want a special greeting in the book, write it in the comments at checkout.

Krickelin’s Life Force from Garden & Sea is a creative gardening book without finger-wagging – about settling into the green and finding joy and feeling rather than getting the perfect flower beds. We get to partake in everything from the health benefits of gardening and cold baths to how to grow with seaweed and fertilize with bokashi, dye fabric with plants and set up a ceramics workshop in the garden. The book is brimming with inspiration, creativity, and choosing joy, play, nature, and love – everything that gives a greater zest for life.

Kristin inspires and shares the tools she uses in life to feel good and that can help when going through difficulties. The comforting sea and the calming garden. A book with both joyful activities and depth.

– Like most people, I have experienced darkness in my life, and I want to share different ways to find life force. About finding joy and hope in life and about places that heal. You don’t need to travel to the other side of the globe to find the health-bringing benefits that the garden and sea in your vicinity can provide. My hope with this book is that it will contribute to people’s well-being and that more of us can find sources of strength, support, hope, and joy in our nearest nature, says Krickelin.

In the book, Krickelin guides the reader through various creative projects – it can be with clay, brush, or camera – and shows how to press and dry flowers and create beautiful paintings, make your own incense, compose flower arrangements or bake beloved grandmother Mildred’s tastiest recipes like rosehip soup or her delightful nut cake decorated with flowers. Krickelin also invites the reader to the sacred and healing ceremonial tea moment that becomes even more sensual with homemade tea brewed from plants thriving in the wild or picked from one’s own garden.

Krickelin’s Life Force – from Garden & Sea will be released on March 15, published by The Book Affair.
