Suggestions to Slow Down

We live fast. 24 hours are not enough for us. What about our health, loved ones, moments we miss? We interviewed the president of Association for Supporting Slow Life Bülent Köstem about their slow life philosophy. Köstem is also Turkey’s coordinator of cittaslow network.

How will we slow down?

Slow life means living in the right tempo. We should find the right pace. There might times for us to be fast but nowadays we need to cool down the pace a little bit more. To live in the moment is a good suggestion. We should enjoy the moments when we are together with our loved ones. Recycling and exchanging are also a means to slow life.

Can everybody live slow? Is there formula for everyone?

Everyone can live slow but there is not a general formula. We should find our own pace. The meaning of slow life is to enjoy life.
