Hello girls! Today, I wanted to talk about a "trend" that I have been very interested in since the beginning of the year: the "slow life" movement, a way of life that I would like to appropriate! In this process of seeking well-being in which I have been engaged for a few weeks, I started to review my diet, to play sports 4 times a week and to walk every morning at dawn ... I already had the opportunity to talk to you about it. All this has an excellent influence on my well-being ... I feel a new energy very positive, I have much more facilities to leave the little hassles aside, to feel effective, positive, sure of me .... But there is a part of my life in which it's a little chaos ... I decided to put myself in order to gradually bring order: my pace of life ... .. It's a crazy rhythm … Actually…. because under a very calm and serene appearance, I am very speed ... .I still need to do a thousand things at the same time, I lead twelve projects head on, I run all day, I always have 53 ideas in advance , always trying to put too much stuff in my days ....
It's not new, I've always been in a hurry, already small I wanted to be great 😂 ... I have a lot of difficulties to appreciate the moment, to live in full consciousness because I constantly project myself ... Not thinking "When I will have this or that it will be better", rather saying to me "I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that ... oh yes I can add this or that, tomorrow you can do more that, that and that ... .or too well I dream to do that, wish I'll do it! I am a bulimic of action.
But I realize today that having such a fast pace, I lack of time to appreciate what I do, what I finish, what I succeed .... I do not have time to savor because there are always 1000 other projects, ideas, desires that await me ... The world in which we live is not there to help me .... Everything is going fast, so fast, too fast ... Everything changes all the time, everything is accelerating ... (Looks like an old woman who speaks? No, but it's true, there is still a really runaway no? Do not you think?) The pace of our society is extremely strong ... One example really struck me in this direction: the last presidential elections. Formerly, the President of the Republic was an elderly man who had a long political career before taking up his post, the holy grail of politics. Today, the President of the Republic is younger than me and 5 years ago he was a complete stranger in politics .... We live in the moment, information is broadcast instantly on social networks (major media do not even take the time to correct the misspellings of their community manager before broadcasting 😉) ... all that to be the first, the fastest ... We like, it buzze, we zap ... but overall for me it lacks depth .... And sometimes I have the impression of being carried away by this fast flow and having adapted my life accordingly: I have made a life of it a thousand miles an hour.
So how do you lift your foot while continuing to lead a normal life? It's not a question of going to go to go breeding Larzac ... The "slow life" movement can help us learn to slow down .... Because to slow down is to feel. And to feel is to increase the depth of the experiences. The "slow life" movement is the logical consequence of the "slow food" initiated in the 1980s in response to "fast food". What is slow life? It is living the present moment in an intense way, and for that, taking the time to do things, savor simple pleasures, disconnect from technology and know how to take time for oneself, respecting this free time.
