a blog on all things simple, slow & meaningful
8 slow living philosophies from around the world share common themes such as togetherness, mindfulness, intentional living, and a focus on being instead of having. While they may originate from different cultural contexts, they prove our visceral need to return to a simpler way of living and adopt a more thoughtful approach to life in a fast-paced world.
As the name suggests, living slow means living with intention and prioritizing what’s truly important to you. Doing things at your own pace, and leaving more time aside for the things that bring you joy. More often than not, the transition to a slower life starts with a process of self-awareness and self-discovery, because when you know who you truly are and what brings you joy in life, you’ll know what things you want to have more of.
