Wendyl Nissen talks about her new book, A Natural Year, which focuses on getting back to basics, and living the good life in Hokianga with husband Paul and their brood of chickens.

A journalist, broadcaster and former magazine editor, Nissen speaks frankly about anxiety and depression, and shares wellness techniques that have worked for her.

A Natural Year is her ninth book and a beautiful guide to living through the seasons as well as Nissen’s favourite recipes which are simple to make as well as simply delicious.
