Slow down, sit quietly & feel better with books.
Since 2012, Tolstoy Therapy is where I’ve shared my stories of living well with books. Take a look around and find healing, beautiful books that feel like a warm hug, best enjoyed with a good cup of tea.
Hi, I’m Lucy. Welcome!
A bit about me… I’m British, love the mountains and nature, and now live in Copenhagen with my husband, Iain. I started Tolstoy Therapy all the way back in 2012, after reading War and Peace and realising how much it helped my anxiety. A decade and thousands of book recommendations later, I’m still here sharing the most feel-good, cozy, and beautiful books.
