‘The central tenet of the slow philosophy is taking the time to do things properly, and thereby enjoy them more.’ Carl Honoré

Welcome to Generosity of Spirit, a space to share my slow and gentle living philosophy - alongside my love of plant based living and food. Please do subscribe to join me on this gentle journey of discovery.

One of the most inspiring concepts of slow and gentle living is the mindset of savouring. Savouring the present and slowing down your pace so you can live in the moment with more ease. This can be anything from a slow nature walk, a mindful meditation - to simply listening to your body or getting back in bed in the morning with a cup of tea! Slow living gives us the opportunity to take our time, and really appreciate the simple things.

One of my core values and passions - is plant based living and cooking - Generosity of Spirit was born out of this love. I am never happier than when I am in my kitchen, cooking - meal planning or watching foodie shows.

I have been itching to get a newsletter out about cooking, but I also wanted to allow my slow and gentle living philosophy to take centre stage for a little while - after all it is what grounds me and acts as my anchor. Adopting slow living has been absolutely life changing for me, but I wanted to explain how I find it compliments my love of food so well.
