The Slow Movement is a _cultural_ movement that rejects the "more, faster" approach to life. It started in France in response to a McDonalds (i.e. _fast food_) restaurant that was trying to be opened in a cultural district. The Slow movement is about doing things at the pace those things demand, not pushing to arrive at the end. [[There is Only Now]]. The movement started with a rejection of fast food at low quality (favoring high quality, but slower foods) and expanded out to all sorts of other arenas - art, cinema, living, parenting, travel, and even [[Slow Productivity]]. In all of these areas the message is generally to **slow down**, let things take more time to develop. Reduce and [[Simplicity|simplify]]. **** # More ## Source - [[Slow Productivity]] - [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slow_movement_(culture)) ## Related
