In Praise of Slowness

Carl Honoré

We live in a hectic society. Keeping up with the pace causes anxiety because we push ourselves to be constantly busy. As a result, we lose touch with our regular cycle and forget to relax or devote enough time to what is actually important to us. Fortunately, as the Slow Movement is spreading worldwide, everything has started to change. You deserve a break. Keep in mind that your well-being is more precious than your employment. So, whenever you want to work while eating, stop! Instead, eat lunch on a park bench, soak up the sun, and savor each bite. Simple and slow will enhance your quality of life.
