She learned that nature is the biggest teacher of all-if we open our eyes to its wisdom. Mindful living can be applied in most walks of life, and Merrill's writing encourages you to find healing and fulfillment, wherever you are.

Reviews for The Cottage Fairy Companion: A Cottagecore Guide to Slow Living, Connecting to Nature, and Becoming Enchanted Again (Mindful living, Home Design for Cottages)

Merrill, who has one million subscribers, believes that a cozy cottagecore vibe can be had anywhere, not just in the country. As she writes in her debut, The Cottage Fairy Companion, ... a beautiful life 'isn't dependent on where you live, but how.' She organizes the projects and reflections in the book by season, under chapter headings including A Gentle Start, Cultivating a Loving Space, and Quiet Living in Winter. Her crafts-orange slice garlands, a terrarium, and more-are 'very easy,' [senior editor Natasha] Vera says, but 'they're no less enjoyable, even if you're an expert. The purpose isn't to keep busy or master it. It's to slow down and have a moment to connect to nature and yourself and be in the present moment.' -Publishers Weekly This book presents an easy entry point for readers interested in exploring mindfulness and the cottagecore lifestyle. -Carrie Byrd, Library Journal
