I was ready to comment exactly the same🌺🌺🌺🌺🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷I so much agree💮💮💮💮💮💮💮💮I also get greater contentment accomplishing the smaller tasks rather than the greater ones!!!
I think about this when I'm on the bus just relaxing and everybody is on their phone. It's scientifically proven that it's hugely important to give ourselves brain breaks. I'm 32 so I haven't been used to technology on the go all my life, but man I think people stress out their minds with it sometimes - I need those slow waves, I need not to be entertained or informed at all times
I agree with this. We don't have to fill every minute of our lives with short phone breaks. Some of my family members are like this - they're preoccupied 24/7, yet they are still bored. We can also observe what's around us and give our eyes and minds some rest.
@@kichapi Thanks. I find it very interesting that you write that they are preoccupied, yet bored. That's saying something. And yes, exactly - we can observe and give ourselves the opportunity to realize, see, flirt, be surprised - a bit more 90's vibe :)
I have a new favorite quote " We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us. " Wonderful video thanks again for sharing! Nino....
Hi! So does that mean to let go of the life you have planned in your mind, then the life you had planned in your mind will flow to you? Or let go of your desires, then theyll come to you? Or is it both🥰. Thank You.
@@crystaldreams3978The life you had planned is not always the life that evolves. At some point you need to let go of the past to embrase the present and what the future brings. It's like flying an airplane, you need to make course adjustments sometimes when the wind starts coming at you in the wrong direction. I'm not a philosopher but, it's all I got. :)
My city is in lockdown, we have been quarantined for a while at home. when I can only stay at home and with limited food and goods ( no delivery allowed), then i started to notice many things around me. I noticed that I can grow many vegetables with their roots, i can cook delicious food with recipes that I've never wanted to try, and I found things in lockers in wardrobes that have been forgotten. live in a conscious life brings life more possibilities. I am kind of enjoying the current quarantine situation when others are struggling with it.
I love slow living. Folding & putting away laundry is a pleasurable task for me - I love my clothes & I love my linens, so it's rewarding & fun to make them beautiful again and again✨
I am at the point of my life where I feel lost and seem to be not achieving all the dreams that I planned in a timeline. Your video opened up a new perspective for me sophie! This helped me so much 🥺💗
Thank you for the little mention that convenience can be a necessity/hugely important to disabled people. As a disabled person myself, I have to balance my needs with getting the most out of my life and limited energy, and that can mean I feel excluded in these types of conversations, so that was great to hear!
An interesting video to watch as a disabled person (I have autism, ADHD, and a learning disability). It gets me thinking about the conveniences I need vs the conveniences that I don't need. Some conveniences I need because it means I get to spend less energy on a task, so I have that extra energy to spend on more important tasks. Sometimes though, I want convenience for the sake of wanting to get a task done. I'll have to see where this takes me. Thank you.
I love living in simplicity 🌿I appreciate the little things such as nature🐿🦜🌾organic goods, growing flowers, veggies and fruits and keeping our home clutter free💫💛wonderful video dear
I'm contemplating leaving my corporate job too. Yes, the pay is good and the job is so-called satisfying. But it's tiring and draining. I'm looking to go into charity work and humanitarian aid. I find more satisfaction working in these areas.
I remember the day I left my Corporate job. I told HR I was going to simplify my life. It took 7 years but it was so rewarding. I work doing things for others now & am enjoying training a rescue pup. Thank you for this video Sophie 💞
Loved this vlog! I've been on the planet awhile, and as I've aged I've seen life speeding up all around me. I agree, convenience comes at a cost. A wise, woman once said to me: when you find yourself waiting (at a doctor's office, at a red light, in an airport) be aware of your attitude. Say to yourself "I'm grateful for this break, for this time to be with myself." I use this attitude re-adjustment all the time - it works so well, even when I'm very tired.
Every day I download a free book on the internet, and study it. Sometimes, I watch your video, thinking how pretty you are. These are all I can do every day after being retired.
Hi, Sophie. It was such a blessing the first time I saw one of your videos. You, your videos and your content encouraged me to go back to minimalism. It was like an answered prayer when I discovered your channel while I’m struggling with my finances and financial habits. Thank you! You inspire me 💕
What an interesting way of looking at convenience. Never actually thought about it that way before. I truly appreciate your insight as the reflection is always appreciated
Knowing that this life of ours will end one day is what makes our life, and the lives of our loved ones so valuable. We think we have more time. It was such a beautiful sunny day here in New York City, and that in itself filled me with such joy. I’m sending you all happy thoughts.. :)
Probably while I receive peacefully my Amazon packages at home. The guy is delivering maybe 50 - 100 packages per day just to get by. I love your videos. They calm me down and they show me what I need to improve to have a better life.
My wise mum always says: "it's not richer the one who has more, but the one who needs less" and also, "it's better to eat less and digest well" (I translated from spanish, maybe it sounds weird 😅 sorry)
Sophie I will never get TIRED of showing my appreciation to you by saying THANKS by sending BLESSINGS your way. In this world were SUPERFICIAL MAINTAINS it is very much appreciated to find people like you,who goes beyond what seems to apparent. We are having LOVELY weather here in the DESERT and I am taking it all in...The Birds singing welcoming the season my 6 ROSES plants full of new growth and ready to bloom Taking walks in the fresh air all of these things are what my Life is really about...LIFE IS SUCH A MIRACLE I CHERISH IT ALL.Sending you much Love
I'm so impressed at how succinctly you articulate these ideas (convenience is not the answer), I myself have been struggling to put these same ideas to words. I used to be single-mindedly focused on my work years ago, since then I've learned to cook , learned to forage, broadened my interests far beyond the one thing I used to care about. What I've realized is that all of that streamlining I did was really just choosing to be ignorant of the complexity of the world. You also mentioned briefly that oftentimes our convenience is built on someone else's inconvenience, which is itself an important topic I think. A while back I read a report on labor in the shrimp industry, and how certain parts of the industry rely on slave labor. Suicide among farmers in India and other areas around the world is also a shocking topic. I don't know what exactly to do about it yet, but this information doesn't sit well with me. Choosing to think about it is a good start, I'm certain the content you're producing here is helping others think twice about how they want to be in the world. Glad I found this channel.
I couldn't agree more...and when you mentioned this friend of yours...it actually reminded me that although I used to be very sucess orientated ..I never sacrificed "all my private time" for it. I always used to at least try to leave some space for me during my day or at least to have a good sleep. I remember often being put down for it at work or among my friends ..and of course I felt guilty too...now I don't allow anybody to influence what I do during my free time, because : " life is not a race it's an art"...I love this quote😍
To be better and grow you have to put yourself in situations that allow that to happen even if it’s at the cost of convenience. I love your outlook on life Malama and and couldn’t agree more with being more conscious 💜💜
The last years I've been on full force speed. I currently stand on the slower lifestyle as well. It gives my life more meaning and more room to pray, think and breathe. I personally will not remember my hard working days first, when I lay in my death bed. It's going to be the many small and big great moments in live apart from the hustle and bustle of being busy, overworked and "always on". I wish I could be in Hawaii right now. Berlin is toooo hectic for me right now :D
Aloha! I live off-grid in Hawai'i. But I work in tech/engineering and I love machines. If I am working on a project that takes up 90% of my brain power, then I need my conveniences.
'Life is not a race it's an art' & be an artist of your own canvas.... I love your wordings and ease how you easily convey your thoughts that's the beauty of your videos..
thank you for your inspiring message. It helps me to reinforce to choose the principle of life that i want to live by. Thank you for giving me an insights.
The book four thousand weeks elaborates this point really well. You crafted the script beautifully too. After reading the book, I’ve been happy folding laundry, before that I was complaining and just wanted to outsource all “inconveniences”. Your video resonated with me, it’s a new way of thinking about old ways of living :)
I'll have to check out that book. I used to resent chores and fantasize about a maid/cook/assistant, etc. But the more I've simplified my life, the more joy I find in tending to these things myself. It's been really surprising. I'm still working on getting a handle on things, but I'm trying. :-)
100% true what you said. I have a friend that just races through life and doesn't slow down... She always has that aura of being busy and being on the go. I hoped covid had slowed here down but once the restrictions lifted she went right back to that lifestyle.... 😢
Wow. This just spoke right into my soul. I’ve been struggling lately looking for convenience and while yes, many things have been easy lately, I definitely feel unfulfilled. Thank you for the reminder to sit in peace and enjoy the journey🙏🏼💫
It feels like, deep down I am talking to myself. The message that you are communicating to others through your channel is valuable. It really teaches me about how to slower your pace and never expect that things are going to happen the way I've planned. I consider it as a very significant part of our life.
Two conveniences I don't have in my life that feel like an inconvenience is a dishwasher and a car. I wish I had those two, a car currently I can't afford and a dishwasher is for practical reasons.
I really appreciate your point of view on the convenient Life, a world who tend to blind human, leading people out of the present moment. Thanks you for sharing great topic. 🧡
I've really been enjoying your channel. I've been in high pressure jobs and heaped responsibilities on my shoulders for quite some time and exploring minimalism is helping me ask, "is this necessary?". I no longer feel like I'm lazy or a work dodger for seeking something different with room for more balance and time with my family. Thank you.
Convenience is subjective. Solely dependent of one’s lifestyle and circumstances. For instance, I find it convenient to live in a city or town were the walk score is at least 80% to get to places without driving all the time. Another woman May find living far from the grocery store is a convenience because it allows her to get away from the chaos in the house for a bit so she can have some peaceful alone time for an hour or two.
Thank you for not just talking about the commercialized 'slow living'! It's like you share my thoughts and ideas, in a much more interesting way of course! I am sure your videos are helping many to stop and take a look at everything around them, and encouraging them to take new and mindful decisions! Many blessings!
Sophie, I so needed it. I have been feeling overwhelmed at work for quite sometime, but I wait every week to find some peace in your videos. I know you keep reading all this, ☺️ but you have no idea how much watching your videos relaxes me. Thanks so much for Being there 🌿
The path of least resistance is usually the one desired cause it frees us up for other things. But all of the truly lasting experiences require work and are earned. Maybe it is time for a redefinition for the word convenience! 😎
I think, the life,practices,habits,routine that you've been doing is for a people or a couple without children.dont get me wrong. i respect your decision of not having a child for now.i love how you portray your life to your audiences,calm and peaceful but sadly,this is not the reality for some people especialy those mother who struggle everyday taking care of their family.your life is what we dream to have but cant have because of everyday's obligations.But what i get from your video is relaxation,hope,and inspiration to move forward even though this life hits me hard.infact,i consider your video as a reward for me after a long day of work and taking good care of my son and my family.😊thank you and God Bless.
As a childless adult who practices / enjoys much of this same lifestyle (though I am caring for both of my aging parents), it was all the mom's out there that came to my mind when I watched this video. I see you! You are doing the hardest, most important job in the world, for sure. Much love to all the mammas!
Thank you so much ❤ I don't think it's realistic to follow anyone's exact lifestyle, but I just hope others find a way to embrace slow living lifestyle in their own version
One of the most impactful RUclips channels I have found in a VERY long time. If not, maybe ever. Can't wait to dive into more and more of these videos and really get some food for thought.
I've been subscribed for awhile now, I enjoy your views and content. This one is particularly amazing though! Thank you for always being an inspiration.

Dear Sophie, I wish to hear you sometimes reading an audiobook. Your voice is so relaxing.
Great explanation. But everyone is different. We should all live in a way that makes us happy…as long as it’s legal of course 😂
So I guess living as a professional con artist would kinda be a bad idea eh😏
I think she agrees that's why she said @5:05
no
@@fionaokeefe1906 Lol !
You said we should live in a way that makes us happy! 😂😂😂😂

After reading the book, I’ve been happy folding laundry, before that I was complaining and just wanted to outsource all “inconveniences”.

Totally understand what you’re saying. I also take time to do things I like. What’s the point of always working more for the convenience?
Yes!! You understand me :) thanks Koala

The path of least resistance is usually the one desired cause it frees us up for other things. But all of the truly lasting experiences require work and are earned. Maybe it is time for a redefinition for the word convenience! 😎
😁👍
I think, the life,practices,habits,routine that you've been doing is for a people or a couple without children.dont get me wrong. i respect your decision of not having a child for now.i love how you portray your life to your audiences,calm and peaceful but sadly,this is not the reality for some people especialy those mother who struggle everyday taking care of their family.your life is what we dream to have but cant have because of everyday's obligations.But what i get from your video is relaxation,hope,and inspiration to move forward even though this life hits me hard.infact,i consider your video as a reward for me after a long day of work and taking good care of my son and my family.😊thank you and God Bless.
As a childless adult who practices / enjoys much of this same lifestyle (though I am caring for both of my aging parents), it was all the mom's out there that came to my mind when I watched this video. I see you! You are doing the hardest, most important job in the world, for sure. Much love to all the mammas!
Thank you so much ❤ I don't think it's realistic to follow anyone's exact lifestyle, but I just hope others find a way to embrace slow living lifestyle in their own version
your videos are always the highlight of my week, thank you :)
That's so sweet ❤
Great lesson Sofi💚
One of the most impactful RUclips channels I have found in a VERY long time. If not, maybe ever. Can't wait to dive into more and more of these videos and really get some food for thought.
