This Handmade Life

<p><i>This Handmade Life</i> is all about finding a passion and becoming really good at it. Divided into seven sections-baking fermenting self-care kitchen gardening soap-making spices and stitching-this book tells us it is all right to slow down and take up simple projects that bring us unadulterated joy.<br>Written in Iyer's signature lyrical and friendly style the book is about hands-on activities that can be meditative and healing for the body mind and soul. Taking the reader through myriad personal and transformative hobbies Iyer has managed to serve up a book that is motivational and inspirational at a time when both are in short order.</p>
