I wake up slowly, naturally. No deafening alarm clock. No reason to jump out of bed. I open my eyes and see the winter sunshine peeking through the gaps in the curtains. I feel relaxed, and ready to embrace my slow Sunday. I stretch, and pull a jumper over my head, and put on my slippers. I wander downstairs and put the kettle on. I return to bed with two cups of tea, one for me and one for my Husband – still snoozing next to me. The bed is warm and cosy. It is still early, and the gift of the day and all its opportunities are dancing through my brain. I snuggle down into the soft duvet and write my morning pages. As my Husband stirs, I start thinking about breakfast… I close my notebook, and finish my tea. I go downstairs in my pyjamas, choose some gentle music, put my apron on, and start preparing food. I love Sundays, they are just the best.


Hello, welcome back! I hope you are well. In this week’s Slow Sunday Letter, I wanted to talk about my favourite day of the week – Sunday! The perfect day for breakfast in bed, reading on the sofa, sleeping in, daydreaming and walking in nature. It is such a gift - and a lovely slow end to the week, a day filled with moments to relax and unwind. So, grab a cuppa, get cosy and dream along with me as we create the perfect Sunday.  

Turning your Sunday into a day for simple pleasures

A perfect Sunday can come in many different shapes and forms and will be unique to you and your life. The main magic I want to capture is the slow and calm vibes, that lend themselves so well to Slow & Gentle Living.

I think the biggest gift we can all receive on a Sunday is to simply be present and enjoy the smaller, quieter moments before another week comes around.


Your Perfect Sunday

"Sunday is a time when you sit back and reflect on all the blessings that you have received. Smile at all the good things that you are enjoying." Sara Train

What does your perfect Sunday look like? Do you love doing the same thing every week, or do you like a little adventure? Your perfect Sunday can mean whatever you want it to mean, greet it with a little fun, gratitude and lightness.
