Natural Happiness - Paperback

by Alan Heeks (Author)

Natural Happiness can help you dig deep and stay cheerful in these stormy times. It shows how you can use gardening methods such as composting, mulching, and crop rotation to cultivate human nature, too. A gardener applies skills like observation, patience and creativity - and you can adapt them to deal with daily stresses and big issues such as climate change. Alan's approach is positive and practical, easy to use for gardeners and others. Natural Happiness explores Alan's Seven Seeds of Natural Happiness, which grows from 30 years' experience of helping people learn from nature, and from creating gardens and an organic farm.
