So here’s the tea: Your FYP is probably full of people waking up not at 5 a.m., sipping matcha for 20 minutes, journaling in silence, and staring at clouds.
Slow living is in. Hustle culture is out. And honestly? We’re kinda into it.
But let’s be real for a second — are we choosing calm… or are we just too tired to care anymore?
Soft Take: Romanticizing peace is good
After years of glorifying “rise and grind” culture, it’s refreshing to see the internet slow down.
We’re trading “You have the same 24 hours as Beyoncé” for “Take a nap, babe. The spreadsheet can wait.”
And look — it’s nice. It’s calming. It’s healthy.
Hot Take: We didn’t choose this life. Burnout did.
Let’s not forget: a lot of us aren’t slowing down by choice. We’re crawling out of a post-pandemic haze, collective economic anxiety, and constant screen fatigue.
Slow living isn’t always mindful. Sometimes it’s just the only pace we can handle.
What even is slow living now?
It used to be about growing your own tomatoes and going off-grid.
Now it’s lighting a candle before checking emails.
Or deleting Slack off your phone for the weekend.
Or not monetizing your hobby for once.
Basically: slow living is whatever makes you feel less like a cog in the machine — even if it’s just doing less and liking it more.
Final Sip:
The “soft life” isn’t laziness — it’s survival with style. So whether you're actually living slowly or just too fried to go fast, that’s valid.
Rest isn’t rebellion anymore. It’s the new productivity.
Now be honest: are you slowing down because you want to… or because your brain has left the group chat?
