Today we work on:
1. Slowplanet.com
We work as a partner in creating this global hub for the Slow Revolution.
2. SlowProduction
We have created an alternative production method for “goods for people”. A Slow alternative to Lean manufacturing. Slow Production is a production method for producing goods for people not consumers.
3. SlowWorkOut
An organisational improvements approach. A tailor made approach to organizations that want to “Slow down” and at the same time increase productivity, teamwork, reduce overtime and absenteeism.
It is all about working smarter (or slower) not faster or harder.
The fast will beat the big…but the Slow will beat the fast!

How slow can you go? Home schooling is becoming commonplace. People are downshifting. The Slow Food movement is gaining popularity with 811 convivia worldwide.
Stress is leading to unprecedented health problems. “Stop the world I want to get off” is a feeling we all have sometimes.
Why is this happening? What is wrong? What are we searching for? The one thing that is common to all these trends is connection. We are searching for connection. We want connection to people - ourselves, our family, ourcommunity, our friends, - to food, to place (where we live), and to life. We want connection to all that it means to live – we want to live a connected life.

" چرا لذت آهستگی از میان رفته؟کجایندآن خردمندان اعصار گذشته؟
کجا رفتند آن قهرمانان هرزه گرد نواهای عامیانه،آن خانه به دوشانی که
از آسیابی به آسیاب دیگر سرگردان بودند و بر بستر خویش زیر ستارگان
می آرمیدند؟"

بسياري از ما زندگي خود را به دويدن در پشت سر زمان ميگذرانيم، اما تنها هنگامي به آن ميرسيم كه بر اثر سكته قلبي يا در يك تصادف رانندگي به خاطر عجله براي سر وقت رسيدن به سر قراري، بميريم..
بسياري از ما آنقدر نگران و مضطرب زندگي خود در آينده هستيم كه زندگي خود در حال حاضر، يعني تنها زماني را كه واقعا وجود دارد را فراموش ميكنيم.
همه ما در سراسر جهان، زمان برابري در اختيار داريم. هيچكس بيشتر يا كمتر ندارد. تفاوت در اين است كه هر يك از ما با زماني كه در اختيار داريم چكار ميكنيم. ما نياز داريم كه هر لحظه را زندگي كنيم.
