SLOW LIFE IN MODERN CITY
周颖 20121333019
What is the slow life?
• Actually, slow life is a balance. Slow does not mean less-efficiency. The key of slow life is to make a balance between fast and slow and find an easy and comfortable way to enjoy the unhurried life.
How to slow pace of life ?
• 1. Say No to Extra Commitments. • 2. Yoga, painting, a hot bath, writing and so on. • 3. Spending time with wife and kids. • 4. Carve Out Un-distraction Time. • 5. Create Space Between.
• Making the alternative move into “downshifting” brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status. Nothing could persuade we to return to the quick life.
