"Connect with your creativity in this ode to mindfulness."
There is a tangibility and beauty in using our hands to create, that Isabella Strambio showcases with aplomb in this beautiful book. It's a reminder of the power of calm as Isabella coaches you through mindfulness utilising macramé. This "yoga for the mind", the ancient art of knotting transforms humble cords into elegant designs.
Looking for a new hobby? Looking to embrace your creativity? Steal moments of solitude and lose yourself in the rhythm of knotting with Isabella by your side. Many studies have shared the benefits of working with your hands, from mindfulness and better sleep to reducing anxiety. Whether you're crafting for the first time, or you're a seasoned enthusiast, you'll find a collection of projects from quick 30-minute creations (I love my car diffuser!) to more intricate designs that deliver a few hours of mindfulness.
A journal, a companion that will help you tap into your creativity. And stop, reflect, breathe, unwind and create.
