Disclaimer: — уроки подходят уровню В1+/В2/В2+; — если вы будете составлять свои уроки по этим материалам, скорее всего, мы встретите классную лексику, которую я не включила в уроки, поэтому сразу хочу объяснить причину: эта тема пятая по счету в моем курсе, поэтому часть выражений, которые не были вынесены отдельно, моим ученикам уже знакомы из предыдущих уроков. — каждый мой предыдущий урок начинается с повторения лексики и/или грамматики предыдущих уроков (это не было вынесено в программу, представленную здесь). — заключительный 8-ой урок в программе это урок на revision всего, что мы прошли. Его я составляю без опоры на какие-либо материалы.

<aside> 📌 Vocabulary:

— cram smth into E.g: Rather than trying to cram as many tasks into your day as possible, slow living is all about creating a more balanced and meaningful life.

— savour the moment E.g: It’s about savouring each moment, instead of rushing it

— easier said than done E.g: Getting out of the habit of ‘busyness’, a task that is so often easier said than done.

— take its toll on E.g: This mentality can take its toll on your mental health, compounding feelings of stress and overwhelm.

— in the long run E.g: Taking a slower pace empowers you to better manage stress, improves your mood, and, perhaps ironically, may even make you more productive in the long run.

— go off-grind E.g: People are finding novel ways to embrace slow living, like growing their own food and going off-grid by ditching their smartphones for the weekend.

— light you up E.g: This might mean saying no to an activity that doesn’t light you up the way it used to.

Additional vocab: — carve out some time — roll out of the bed — non-negotiable — tedious task
