Downshifting is an English word that refers to reduction, for example, in the gears of a vehicle. A few years ago this term started to be used in the workplace to define people that voluntarily seek to reduce their obligations and dedicate more time to their families or to leisure, rejecting some business opportunities and committing to a relaxed work environment.
This new lifestyle in which less is more, aims to find the balance between work and personal life, enhancing emotional well-being. Some years ago, it has been shown that those who have more money or work opportunities aren’t happier than those who are able to find the balance between a successful working life and the personal development.
If you have come this far, it is because you are attracted to the philosophy of less is more, right? Keep reading because here we detail some of the main advantages to put into practice:
