About this listen
Are you constantly striving to keep up with life's busy expectations?
It's easy to feel consumed with the desire to "succeed" and "acquire" and miss the simple opportunities waiting for you to slow down: a walk in the forest, sharing laughter with family, a personal moment of gratitude....
Once upon a time, it became clear to Brooke McAlary the key to happiness was discovering a simpler, more fulfilling existence. She put the brakes on her stressful path and reorganized her life to live outside the status quo, emphasizing depth, connection, and meaningful experiences.
Alongside Brooke's affirming personal stories of breaking down and rising up, Slow provides practical advice and fascinating insights into the benefits and challenges of the slow life, such as: decluttering to de-owning; messiness to mindfulness; and asking "Why?" to asking "Where to now?"
Slow is an inspirational guide on creating a life filled with the things that really matter, and it is meant for anyone seeking peace, meaning, and joy in their otherwise rapid lives.

Beyond simple living
If you’re here because you’ve already discovered minimalism, read a few inspiring books about that helped you declutter, and were looking for something new to read, then jump right in! Slow living is the next natural progression. I’ve definitely learned a few good tips from Brooke to prioritize and make time for what’s truly important.

Repetitive
It's rather repetitive, though I've enjoyed my time listening it. The purpose of being more present and insightful is thoroughly appreciated.

Wonderful book!!
This book was beautifully written. Brooke has a way of connecting with the reader, letting us know it’s ok to not be perfect, it’s ok to not get it right the first time but by taking one step at a time we can make a change and make a difference. Thank you Brooke x

Not a boring self help book
The narrator had a nice easy to listen to voice. The book was not a boring self help book on steps to a better life. Enjoyed the story of how the author made some small changes to
Her own life. It’s a book about her everyday life and what you take away from it is an individual experience. No steps to follow or things to do - presented is a much more laid back manner which I enjoyed
