About this listen

An inviting guide to reclaiming your time and discovering the wondrous pleasures of slow living.

What beautiful possibilities await us when we slow down?

For author and Slow Stories podcast host Rachel Schwartzmann, slowing down has changed her story in ways she could have never imagined. In this poignant and timely collection, she invites us to step away from the turmoil of daily life and awaken to the pleasures of living and creating with intention.

Her captivating essays reveal how slowing down positively affects our minds, relationships, and work, and contributions from a wide range of luminous voices in art, food, design, and beyond—including Sophia Roe, Leah Thomas, and Jezz Chung—explore the magic that emerges when we intentionally shift our relationship to time and productivity culture. Throughout, listeners will also find simple-to-follow guided practices for creativity, journaling, and introspection to help them discover their true rhythm and moments of wonder.

Slowing is a balm for the stresses of modern life and a rousing call to experience the beauty and joy of slow living.

Genre bending and meditative book on life through a creative lens

This isn’t your typical self-help book on slow living. It’s a thoughtful and nice collection of creatives reflecting on life moments, with a prompt offering for you to do the same if inclined. If you’re into books on creativity but want something a bit more literary, this is for you.

Didn't deliver

With such a compelling title, I'd expected more – something deeper in the way of Katherine May's work.
