1,001 Ways to Slow Down
1,001 Ways to Slow Down: A Little Book of Everyday Calm | Barbara Ann Kipfer
7 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
"This irresistible list book from National Geographic provides lighthearted quick hits of inspiration for those of us who feel overwhelmed-which is to say, all of us. Musings, activity suggestions, and illuminating quotes are paired with whimsical art on themes such as living in the moment, achieving balance, relieving stress, developing patience, and appreciating the world around us. "Slow living" sidebars, such as "Foods to Cook Slowly" and "Things to Do the Old-Fashioned Way," are interspersed throughout the book."

Designed to be cracked open when needed, rather than read through in a sitting, this book is like a zen friend who offers those reminders without judgment. The tips range from the easy -- Slow down and enjoy eating. -- to the more complicated -- Consider a move to a smaller house. -- so every suggestion may not be right for each reader. But even those that really weren't or won't be applicable to me still offered me a moment of welcome pause.
