What Is Slow Living? Simple Ways to Try It.

Does your daily life make you feel like you’re running a nonstop race? You wake up, dash to get the kids breakfast and packed for school, fight rush-hour traffic, dart about all day to meet your supervisor’s every demand, and arrive home only to cook dinner, do chores, help with homework, and finally collapse into bed.

If you feel burnt out from the grind, why not try slow living? This lifestyle gained popularity during the pandemic — so much so that many prefer it over returning to a hectic, but ultimately unsatisfying schedule.

It’s not about laziness, but rather attentiveness and quality over quantity. Here’s what you should know about the benefits of slow living and some simple ways you can try it.
