Slow Living

“

“Be a curator of your life. Slowly cut things out until you’re left only with what you love, with what’s necessary, with what makes you happy.” – Leo Babauta

“Slow down and enjoy life. It’s not only the scenery you miss by going too fast – you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.”

– Eddie Cantor

Slow living is a gentle and mindful approach to life, one that encourages us to savour the simple pleasures and take the time to appreciate the world around us. It’s a way of living that arose in response to the fast-paced, consumer-driven society that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected.

At its core, slow living invites us to simplify our lives, focus on what truly matters, and cultivate meaningful experiences. By slowing down and being present in the moment, we can find joy in the little things and create a deeper sense of connection with ourselves, others, and the natural world.

Practicing mindfulness, simplifying our daily routines, and prioritizing quality over quantity are all key principles of slow living. We’re encouraged to connect with nature, embrace sustainability, and foster a sense of community and connection with those around us.

Overall, slow living is a beautiful reminder to live intentionally, to find meaning in the moments, and to create a life that aligns with our values and brings us joy.

Our Slow & Mindful?

Our mission is to empower women to live a more mindful and slower-paced lifestyle that helps them make conscious choices and take empowering actions. With our areas of expertise and passion, we strive to inspire and educate our community in cultivating mindfulness, slow fashion, creativity, and the appreciation of life’s simple pleasures.

We believe in the power of being present and engaged in every moment of our lives, and by practicing mindfulness, we empower our community to achieve greater feelings of calm and well-being.

Through our slow fashion courses and resources, we aim to help reduce our impact on the environment and promote a more sustainable fashion industry by advocating for clothing repair and upcycling. At our core, we value cultivating creativity and connecting with others who share our interests. By slowing down and taking time to pursue our passions, we can tap into our creativity and find meaning beyond our daily responsibilities.
