The Practice of the Week
We start with a quick read for suggestions on “how” we can begin slowing down.
The 10 Essentials for Slowing Down and Enjoying Life More.
The Idea of the Week
Today, for a fresh perspective, we have a TedX talk by Jedidiah Jenkins. Jedidiah is the author of To Shake the Sleeping Self, and the more recent, Like Streams to the Ocean.
His TedX talk is described as following:
“Why does time speed up as we get older? And how do we slow it back down? We all remember time crawling by as a kid. Summer break felt like an eternity. As we get older, time is somehow exponentially quicker. How common is it to hear an elderly person say ‘it felt like only yesterday that….’or ‘it all goes by so fast.’ There are scientific reasons for this, and there are ways to slow it down and regain your sense of childlike wonder.”
