Cultivating a rooted life.

Rooted is all about intention. Building slow rhythms and an analog-first lifestyle. The thoughtful keeping and curating of a more meaningful library. Reading as a lifestyle and not as a productivity goal. Consuming only what truly matters and building up resilience in an increasingly noisy world, choosing what earns your attention.

Within the next few months you’ll see articles on not only rebuilding your attention and learning how to read more again, but how to curate a meaningful library, rebuilding a reading habit offline, thoughtful book-keeping and choosing what to keep and what to let go of. I’ll also dive into seasonal resets and slow rituals, gentle decluttering, designing simple tools for organizing your home and ideas, attention recovery and dopamine resets through analog routines, and more.

Who am I? I’m Amanda. I’m an avid book collector and mood reader extraordinaire. Amateur baker and aspiring gardener. Exhausted mama of two. I am also a recovering digital native.

If you’re feeling scattered, digitally exhausted, or unsure where your attention even is anymore: you’re not alone. This space is for you. I hope you’ll join me in rediscovering slow, analog-first rhythms and reclaiming the attention that has been taken from us.
