Definition

  • Downshifting is a concept that spread in the United States during the 1990s, starting with the Amy Salzman's book Down-Shifting: Reinventing Success on a Slower Track. Downshifting involves focusing less on paid work in order to have time to do more of the things one wants to do while cutting out unnecessary expenditure.
