The art of “slow living”

Are you ALWAYS on the go?

Some people are always trying to stay busy and brag about it…as if just by having no free time automatically means you’re successful, popular, productive and driven…”living your best life” as they say.

It can lead to burnout…and fast…which is why the concept of “slow living” has arisen.

Metro reports that there are more than 3.5 million posts for #TheArtOfSlowLiving on Instagram with things like self-care, “me-time,” and saying “no” to invites are now being celebrated.

“Slow living” fans argue life is better when you can appreciate things as they happen rather than manically ticking things off your to-do list…kind of like living in the world before social media!

Which lifestyle do you prefer?
