Life On the Brink

Living Slowly + how to enjoy the important things


Listen Later

Hello hello, welcome to Episode 49 of Life on the Brink!

Often, our modern-day world moves so fast, sometimes the days feel much too short.  We can find ourselves wrapped up in trying to balance work, family, the home, projects, and all sorts of things, and it begs the question: “Is all this really necessary?” And even within our obligations like work and family, I believe there are ways we can refocus and find slowness in our routines and in our downtime.

Today we're drawing from Melanie Barnes' book "Seeking Slow," and we’re going to talk about a couple different things like:
-understanding your priorities
-what "mindfulness" really looks like
-the role of technology and work in our modern schedules
-simple ways to help slow down and enjoy your life 

Plus, I'm sharing a delicious Little Joy, and a unique album that I can't stop listening to.
