I think the key with minimalism is embracing what were often coined ‘undesirable’ elements like simplicity and satisfaction. To be simple or satisfied is no longer deemed boring but immensely pleasurable and peaceful. Minimalism is about recognising this and utilising what we do have to unlock an eternal sense of happiness. Thank you again for such an insightful video!😊
Beautifully said! Thank you for sharing your insight and wisdom with us.
The freedom that comes from simplicity is the best 🥰Thank you for your always inspiring videos 🍃
So true!
Where do you buy your tee shirts? They are perfect, v neck and short sleeve, they look the best fit. Thanks for the video.
Hi Connie was wondering how often do you move ?while you talk areas in the backgrounds in the homes that you stay at or rooms that you stay at are so nice!
A beautiful day to you too❤
Same to you
I just found your channel a few days ago and I’ve been loving your content. Thanks so much for taking the time to create such beautiful and useful videos. After traveling with 2 suitcases as a family of 5 for the past 8 months we’ve realized how little we can actually live with. We are looking at settling down for a bit here in Portugal and we’re definitely going to stay minimal :)
thank you Connie. The gentleness you convey is very peaceful. Love keeping my life simple.
I wouldn't call myself a minimalist, but compared to most people I know I would appear to be. I love watching your videos for inspiration to go even further with my paring down. Your voice is so lovely and calming. Thank you for such inspiring content.
I appreciate your suggestions for simplifying even when you are "on the move". We have been living in a temporary apartment for a year and a half now, most of the items here do not belong to us but still, there are little things that add up and that can be dealt with to make our lives more efficient and simple.
this is great and I love your videos, however, the only thing I wrestle with is letting go of sentimental items - like kids artwork, christmas ornaments, decorations that have a memory from when the kids were little, etc. that is my issue that I need advice on - thank you
Good point! Sentimental items hold not only memories but a piece of our hearts. As you go through the items maybe some things you can let go, others you can take pictures of them to remember. Honor where you are at today. If you can't part with your children's keepsakes... then don't. Remember, there is no right or wrong way to live minimally. The only way is that works for you is your way.
thanks connie; great inspiration as usual; have a great day yourselfx
Love the video ❤
Great advice ❤
Thank you ❤
Thank you. Enjoy your weekend ❤
Thank you Connie for your wonderful inspiring videos ....they are so special...thanks againxxx
Your videos are so inspirational! I love simplicity & watch your videos occasionally. I always find them useful to my journey! Blessings to you, Connie! I will continue to watch!
Thank you❤
The junk drawer/room is so true 😊, it breeds 🤗
Even your voice is calming, I feel your good energy. A lot of good advice. Thank you.
Thank you for this, 😊 I will take note all of this
Ahhh we love this Connie
THANKS 🙏
Yes !
These are so simple and interesting simple tips to embrace LIFE, thank you for sharing 🙂
“LESS COMPLICATED LIFE”, sounds good to me, .thanks 🙏 again for a great video ❤
Always enjoy spending the morning drinking my coffee with you. I also have started a WFPB diet . I got off track the other day at a luncheon but back on track today :)
I look forward to the time in my life when I can really slow down (leave the rat race behind), and in the meantime I appreciate your suggested life hacks and incorporate as I can. Your videos are very calming and I really enjoy them.
Such great tips, I think I will write them onto my whiteboard until they are internalised. thank you
Love your videos Connie tbh they have been a massive help to me I need to be better organised with healthier food any advice is welcome tips to get me on track love your videos thank you 🌻🍂
1:49 Omg Connie this is still me 😮never connected it to minimalism or self care! Wow
Hi Connie, watching your videos have become a real inspiration for me. Please could you do more videos on food prep as I find I am spending too long on meals for the family. I am a vegan. I do love your decluttering tips and I have made some of your beauty products. Thank you so much for your content. Xxx
thank you sooo much❤❤❤🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼😘😘😘😘😘
Thank you so much Connie. Such good and important life hacks. 😊
😊
You're just the most PEACEFUL, RESTFUL person to listen to & watch, and at the same time I know that I'm learning (or being reminded of) some perspectives and tips that are very valuable. Thanks for the inspirations!
I’m working towards a capsule wardrobe that suits my current lifestyle. I’ve never had a lot of clothes anyway but I still had things in my wardrobe that didn’t suit my life so now they’re gone (sold some on eBay and donated some) I’m replacing them now with pieces I need rather than want. Watching your clips help me prioritise my belongings. I’m not a minimalist in regards to decor yet but I have cleared away a lot recently that no longer serve me. Thanks 🙏for the calm way you put things into perspective Connie ❤️
A meal plan and a budget are both similar concepts. Watching from Australia 🇦🇺
Welcome Australia!
You’re so gorgeous!💗
This all sounds great. I work long hours and am out the door by 6.45am. So many of these tips are just not practical for me. But I will try and take a few of them to heart eg 1 in 1 out rule, which is a start. Thanks.
Dear Connie, I immensely enjoy your videos. We could be twins for your videos reflect my thoughts and lifestyle. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. One suggestion I have is, please bring more variety in the videos. I feel you are repeating the same topics directly or indirectly in many videos. Topics such as simple gardening, prudent use of natural resources or how to journal, etc. will be beneficial to many. Lot of love and best wishes!
I don’t have a junk drawer. Everything has a home :) I unload & load the dishwasher while I’m cooking so there’s less clear up.
Great vid ! Hey Connie, Can you share the brand of those high waisted denim pants / jeans ? Looking for some myself. Ty
My favorite was " no junk drawers"
This is sheer excellence. I recently encountered similar material, and it was nothing short of amazing. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
Simplifying in a normal society would be living in extended family systems, sharing and handing down things to ones children, grandchildren. The consumer society in which we live created the need for "minimalism". People with grown children, grandchildren would automatically "minimalize". Even up to the family home. This still young woman should be raising her grandchildren, cooking with and for others, in addition to realizing her own personal goals.
That’s a really interesting perspective. It’s true ,we’re all just so overwhelmed with our abundance. You’re comment really made me pause and ponder
BonJour, Merci pour toutes vos vidéos très inspirantes et apaisantes... des conseils et un soutien au quotidien, même si dans la réalité, je vis déjà depuis des années dans la simplicité volontaire, dans le minimalisme, ayant déjà une garde-robe capsule et une maison très simple, préférant m'occuper du jardin pour des moments de méditations et de contemplations... Dans cette vidéo, on vous voit faire les tâches du quotidien ; j'espère que, dans la réalité, votre compagnon, votre mari participe à ces tâches et les partage équitablement avec vous... et oui, car en plus d'être minimaliste, je suis féministe. encore merci pour l'inspiration et l'ambiance très apaisante de vos images, amicalement, cécile de bordeaux (france)
A tip for the top tips (practical evolution). Please try not to spend it all at once and please do share with Joel. Thanks, have a wonderful way 😊 🤸♂️🌈
Connie, while I don't necessarily want to be a "minimalist", I AM decluttering and simplifying my home. I have a question for you (or any of your subscribers) - How did you deal with throwing away family photos? I was doing quite well until I got to pictures of my son when he was little. He's an only child and played every sport, was in numerous plays, and traveled the world with us. I just couldn't throw all these precious memories away so I had to stop the process. It saddened me so much I haven't been able to get motivated again. TIA
i personally created digital versions of the photos, and then burned them to disc. I think its a great way of preserving space since photos can take up a lot of space. Dont use USBs, or hard drives, because they are not meant for long-term storage. Also have multiple copies on other places just in case. Good luck !
also there are these so called M-Discs, meant for archiving for over 1000 years, resistant to weather etc. planning on investing in these as well. for now im using the normal dvds.
For me minimalism is about keeping things that sirve us. If those pictures bring you joy, keep them as they are or in electronic form.
@@mariamena3102 the pictures bring me joy. The actual photos do not.
@@e98r5u3ufhsdl thank you for responding. I think this will end up being my best solution but what a daunting task I have ahead of me😬
Please don’t go minimal on your apostrophes in your titles. (You are=you’re) love your videos and vibe.
One way I simplify my life is by not listening to KZhead videos when there is a spelling mistake in the headline headline. That’s a an easy way to simplify.
Ooops. You have a typo in your text. (That’s a an)
Have grace for mistakes. ;)
1:11..
You're*
You’re so minimalist you even forwent the ‘e in the title!
