Today we celebrate the 5th Day World of Slowness, an 'initiative created in 2006 by pr dell'Onlus "The art of living slowly" .
I want to echo the words of the promoter, Bruno Contigiani,
" A moment of collective reflection in a time of great change, of great confusion and uncertainty (...) In a world ever more hectic, forcing us to do more and do more quickly and leaves us less time and space to think and to dedicate ourselves and those around us (...) is important to celebrate the urge to stop for resume guidance, it is important not to feel alone in going against the current, not accepting a model of man, life and family, the world economy, the education of our children or exceeded often frustrating. "
The watchword today is SLOW.
this morning in honor of this special day, I pulled the alarm and I woke up half an hour più tardi, ho fatto una doccia caldissima, non sono andata a seguire i corsi in Facoltà, perchè sono ancora un pò influenzata [ma si riprende domani, finalmente!].
Mi son preparata il latte caldo con il miele e ascoltavo la pioggia cadere giù, anch'essa lentamente.
Vorrei condividere con voi, per quest'occasione, degli esercizi che cerco di fare in modo costante e che nella bela stagione pratico proprio come in questo video
Prendetevi oggi un pò di tempo lento...tutto per voi.
Come ad esempio questi preziosi 6 minuti

... and 7 in comandalenti kitchen
1) The food is your first medicine: Hippocrates teaches ... crediamoci!
2) The poetry of the food begins when we go shopping: choosing seasonal ingredients and quality. If we want to diminish the amount saved: that is also an excellent choice to control cholesterol and weight.
3) E 'scientifically proven that water does not boil first if we continue to observe it: so no hurry appassioniamoci the preparation of our dinner table and laid with care, a flower?
4) We use all our senses to enjoy the individual ingredients: sight, touch, smell, taste ... also heard (the noises they make a lot of home cooking and heat!).
5) enjoy every mouthful and every little sip of wine that, even if incompetent, we have chosen with love and care.
6) Avoid "two-in-one! If we eat do not call me call you if we do not eat.
7) Do not precipitiamoci ... cinema, the dishwasher, the finishing touches to your computer, etc.. expect
