Inspired by slow movements, permaculture and the cycles of nature, it explored how slowness can be a form of resistance to hustle culture and consumerism.<\/p>\n<h3>Quello che \u00e8 successo<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Slow movements across Europe:<\/strong> each national group shared the slow initiatives of its own country.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sensing and observing:<\/strong> silent and blindfolded exercises, sensory walks, outdoor meditation and observing nature on the farm.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Slow food day<\/strong> and a workshop on permaculture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Looking inward:<\/strong> reflection notebooks, \u201cthe island of life\u201d, creative work and group discussions on values, society and wellbeing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Living together:<\/strong> a common agreement written by the group, intercultural evenings and daily reflection groups.
