Discovering slow

Slow living is a lifestyle emphasizing slower approaches to aspects of everyday life. I made the move from working in a fast-paced office in one of the largest cities in the world to working remotely from home in the same career. I’m truly blessed. While I hardly shun technology and modern conveniences, my lifestyle is not a conventional one. For instance, my family and I snowmobile three miles of unmaintained road in the Winter to reach the 18 acres of woodland paradise we call home. This is not a traditional commute but it’s one we revere with grand views of the Rocky Mountains and vibrant forests. I absolutely love what I do for a living and cherish where I live. Can’t I have it all? I say yes, that I can! Your “all” may look very different from mine, however, I believe everyone can live a slower, meaningful, more fulfilled life that “has it all” and it doesn’t require acres of land to do so. I hope that you’ll join me as I savor living in a simple and slow way. I’ll share my experiences along this journey, DIY projects to help you slow down and relish small moments and activities, reflections, ideas, recipes and hopefully a little bit of beauty and inspiration that will brighten your day.
