Quite literally everything I will talk about as I delve into the world of Slow Fashion and Slow Life is related to the concept of Mindfulness.
The Slow Movement = Mindfulness = Awareness.
"Mindfulness is a certain way of paying attention that is healing, that is restorative, that is reminding you of who you actually are so that you don't wind up getting entrained into being a human doing rather than a human being" - John Kabat-Zinn
:D hope your thoughtfulness was enjoyable!!!! :D its kind of fun to be reminded to be a human being and not a human doing! at least thats what this quote did for me yesterday!
ReplyDeleteA human being and not a human doing... I love that, too!
ReplyDeleteMindfulness can be SO hard to achieve.
Reduced expectations= more time to be present.
This has been my mantra for my thirties...it has led to much enlightenment, reduction of anxiety, and self-care. I am still a tremendous work in progress, but I do love the quote you posted above!
soooo hard to achive! i think you don't really realize how important it is to SLOW DOWN until you get a bit older :)
