A new philosophy
for living in truth

Slow living is a life philosophy, a state of mind and being, a reflective approach, and methodical process to daily life Slow living is purposeful and fulfilling Slow living is nourishing, savoring the minutes instead of counting them Slow living is holistic, timeless, and based on ancient wisdom and spirituality Slow living is about pacing, being steady and consistent Slow living is taking a long-term view of your own life and the world around you Slow living is about well-being and doing everything as well as possible instead of as fast as possible Slow living is conscious, intentional, mindful, and living deeply Slow living is an organic and natural way of living Slow living is balance, ease, sanity, and low stress Slow living is connection with yourself, those around you, and the world Slow living is countercultural because it goes against the norm that “faster is better” Slow living doesn’t treat everything in life as disposable Slow living is fighting back against the current state of busyness and “time poverty”.

The central tenet of the slow philosophy is taking the time to do things properly, and thereby enjoy them more.

Carl Honoré (1967), Canadian journalist who wrote the internationally best-selling book In Praise of Slow about the Slow Movement.
