I've just discovered your substack and I'm so glad to have found it. It's great to hear from a fellow slow living advocate who also works 9-5 in a fast paced job. I have a long commute either side of the day. With so little time to myself I feel it's even more important to make those times special. I prioritise walking, gardening and time in nature because these thing always make me feel better inside and able to cope with the rest of the day. Thanks once again for a great post.
Welcome and thank you for commenting! <3 It can be tough for sure, but those sound like great ways to add in a little softness and enchantment to your days :)

This article is pure gold. You are wise beyond your years. Thank you for writing these wonderful suggestions. I'll watch the video, as well. 🌸🍵📘☺️
I keep decluttering to make room for better clutter. Lol. I’m phasing out social media though. Dead end as far as I’m concerned. (Not YouTube though).
Also distracting. Anyways… great essay!
(The 9-5 really gets in the way of research and experimentation!)
