Summary

Looking for peace and happiness? Slow Living, is your guide on how to slow down your life and live peacefully. Helena Woods, author and creator of popular YouTube channel Simple Joys, reveals the wisdom she has learned by moving abroad from the US and living a slower life in France. With beautiful prose, she provides inspiration and guidance to create a simple living environment wherever you are.

Slow Living is for anyone looking to simplify life. Personal growth books for women tend to leave out men and children, but this book was intentionally crafted with everyone in mind! If you're looking for how to improve yourself and how to get into simple living, then this is the guide for you! For many, a slow European lifestyle seems out of reach, but with the direction in this book, listeners are able to craft this lifestyle for themselves anywhere, anytime.

You'll find: ways to value quiet moments, which bring simple joys to your life; how slow living takes root when less becomes more in your home; a guide on how to simplify your everyday life for mental clarity; and how to create routines that enrich your mind and feed your soul. If you like books for homebodies or if you enjoyed Slow, Essentialism, or Simple Pleasures, you'll love Slow Living.

A well-put-together reminder

Perfect reminder of little things that most of us know about but don't practice. These things add up to make the big picture, the canvas of our lives.
Loved the examples that anyone can follow and also the mindset that with practice all of us can practice.

An important topic

I love the idea of slow living and this book is a nice and insightful introduction. It’s not as deep as I’d particularly like but then I started off with Thich Nhat Hanh books so anything is a step down. But this is a good, modern take on mindful living. Unfortunately, somewhat ironically given the topic of slow living, although competent, the narrator talks too fast for my taste and her tone is a little abrasive perhaps. Worth checking out if you’re interested.
