A Slow Living Manifesto

10 SIMPLE STEPS TO SLOW LIVING

1. Create a vision

How do you want to live your life? We can only create a life we can see.

2. Develop a value framework

Make meaningful change based on a personal philosophy, and live by that.

3. Find your ‘why’

Have a clear sense of purpose to make the right choices.

4. Focus on priorities

Set boundaries around what’s important in your life, and allocate your resources accordingly.

5. Take responsibility

Recognise the difference between a need and a want. And that we have a choice - from what we consume to how we live.

6. Let go

Worry less about how other people are living their lives. Care less about attaching status to objects, and meaning them as a sign of self-worth. Let go to move forward.

7. Switch off

Disconnect to reconnect with ourselves and what matters most. Create community in real life.

8. Live in the now

Become awake to the real beauty of our lives. Reclaim what’s most important.

9. Cultivate good feelings

Pay attention to when we feel good or energised. Cultivate and nurture these strands of our life.

10. Embrace SLOW living one step at a time

Consider Sustainable Local Organic Whole choices. Develop a rhythm that works for our lives, and find pleasure in the process.
