Hi there,
My name is Niamh (pronounced neeve) and I have a BSc in Nursing Science. I make videos on simple, natural, healthy living.
Enquiries: info@fairylandcottage.com
#lowwasteliving #slowliving #simpleliving
A profound message, simply put. I am from Sri Lanka. Currently the country is bankrupt. Prices of food , sky rocketed. Daily power cuts cos we cannot buy oil to operate the grids. But I have adjusted to what is, and light a candle when elec is cut. We share what we can with those who dont have. But i still love living here bcos its still a beautiful country and the simple people are still very hospitable with the little they have. This is a marvellous message. Love it.
I hope you are doing well Chandi & thank you for sharing, you put a lot of things into perspective & if it happened in Ireland we would just adapt like you. Take care & blessings to you.
Gosh a message full of so much love and heart. Sending you love from Ireland and I’m sorry to hear the country you live in has gone bankrupt.
Sending love to your people from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Love yr message Chandi. We are in really bad times but making the most of it ❤️
sending you love from the Phil. Chandi. we got this, we in the fairyland cottage community
Her little feet are so beautiful and the sound of her giggle so precious. There is nothing more wonderful in life than having a child to love.
P.s my 10 month old daughter started to giggle when your little one giggled. Baby friends from around the world 🌍❤️
Ah that’s too cute ❤
Beautiful!
Another beautiful video❤thank you so much. I recently lost my husband to cancer, we were married for 48 years and I am finding it difficult. Your videos bring me peace.
It’s so wonderful to have you back! I love to hear little fairy “talking” in the background, it make such a precious difference!
Thank you for the reminder to be content where we are and with what we have. It’s okay to be happy with what we have and what we’ve accomplished. We don’t have to meet anyone else’s expectations or goals that they’ve mentally set for us.
❤
So true. We don’t have to meet anyone else’s expectations…
Thanks for joining us here today April Dee ❤
This is a great message. There are voices in the world telling us we should feel guilty for the sins of others. This helped me today. Thank you.
I’m glad to hear David.
Soooo true! These words spoke to my heart!🥺🙏

David, I’m not sure those voices are telling us to feel guilty. Rather, they are telling us to be grateful for what we have, and to help those that need it whenever we can. We shouldn’t feel guilty for the sins of the past, but we should learn from them, instead of repeating them.
I was taught that my guilt is of no use to anyone, but holding the space for love and joy is everything. ❤
So true Siobhán, so true ❤️
First, I just love your beautiful name. My mother wanted to name me Siobhan, but my father vetoed. I have always wished he’d agreed to it. Secondly, this is a true and important sentiment. I appreciate you sharing it.
"No amount of us feeling bad is going to make somebody else feel good." That is so important to remember. And sometimes, us feeling good can make someone else feel better. When I have been going through difficult times in my own life, it has lightened the darkness a little to hear of good things that have come to someone else. And when my husband & I got married in summer 2020, we had random strangers telling us 'it's cheered us up to see a wedding happening - we need more good news'. So feeling guilty about your own happiness doesn't just spoil the joy for yourself, it also potentially robs other people of the chance to feel a bit better!
Ohhhh Niamh, I don't know where to begin. Everything you shared is so lovely and wise. Your little fairy is absolutely adorable and so blessed to have you for a mother. There was a time I would hear someone's sorrow, than go home and find that I was still carrying the pain they were feeling. I then learned to listen with compassion, and remind myself to send them love and light, but to let the issue go, and not take on their burdens as my own. That's called loving our"self". Thank you for this beautiful sharing. I hope you named your tiny gem, "Fairy"...hehehe.....lots of love to all three of you!🍂💕
"Your little fairy is so blessed to have you for a mother." Absolutely. If I had kids I'd want to raise them like this, going out to the garden/forest every day and seeing new sights, and learning how to live in a sustainable and nature-friendly way.
@@sluggo206 Yes, isn't it wonderful. I too, would have tried to do the same had I had kids. Thankfully my mother was a lot like that.🙏💕
I was an infant in the mid 1960s, so there was little knowledge of organic food, the impacts of waste, or being in nature -- those were all hippie things. But we were lucky to have 30 fruit trees in our suburban yard, and my mom grew "everything" in her garden. I didn't participate in the gardening, which maybe I should have done. But that, and the plain food she cooked, with lots of vegetables and especially salads with lots of ingredients, left a nasting impression on me, so I eventually started a small garden in pots and began cooking more.
At first my garden was herbs, then I started adding flowers to have something to look at, and now it's mostly flowers. It was surprising to learn that even flowers have a major benefit for the ecosystem, and you don't have to look for a few "pollenator" flowers because all flowers are pollenators, and most of what we eat depends on flowering plants even if we don't eat the flowers or their leaves themselves.
I can relate to all you say my friend! Thanks for loving the video. It warms my heart so much ❤
❤❤❤
I quit my job before retirement age and I've never been more content. Spending less and going less are small sacrifices to make in exchange for being this happy; I enjoy making do with what I have and what I can grow with my own hands. There's sometimes a thought that maybe this is really how we were meant to live.
Yes Laura. I agree. Don’t think we were ever suppose to work or stress so hard!
Living the dream ✨️
Very true & with the world changing it may be like that. My husband said to me this morning that electricity is a luxury & it truly is.
Well said Laura. My husband and I too, live a quiet and simple life. We much rather enjoy the simplicity with less. It is so much more fulfilling than the busy working life we are no longer burdened by. It takes contentment in everything you do have to realize fancy possessions are not what makes our life grand. ❤
Growing up, my poor mother was never happy nor at peace. I felt I could never have success or happiness as that might hurt her further. However, I learned to relish my own inner peace and quietly enjoy gratitude that I could see beauty and hope. When my own children came along, I wanted them to feel they could honor all their feelings, but especially joy as that is so abundant and expansive. They laugh easily, tell me hard things, and are sensitive to others out of the overflow of their own self-awareness and acceptance. It is a lovely thing to witness healing across the generations. Your presence and intentionality in enjoying life is the greatest gift you can offer to yourself and your family. Thank you for a lovely Sunday morning meditation. (P.S. have you made apple butter? I use my slow cooker on low and add cardamom.)
Thanks Denise for sharing. There is nothing more powerful than generational healing.
I haven’t made apple butter but I’ll definitely look that up. Yum 😋
Tyfs
Thank you. That comes at a time for me that I'm healing from things done by my mother.
I'm so glad you're making videos again. I've missed your presence in my life. The grace and peace in your videos is the best way, in my mind, to start a Sunday. As a Christian this is my day of worship and watching you find peace and joy in the world in your way always reminds me to do the same. Peace to you and your family.
Awh thanks Erica! Sending love to you and your family ❤🌹
My dearest friend im so happy watching you with your little sweetie girl!!! wishing for your lovely family the best!!!!!love and kisses from Athens .Filio
Yea Yes. She Popped up on my feed and i just tapped her. I had forgotten How Much I enjoys her videos and...Her Soothing Voice
Thank you! I’m a mom of four, watching from Canada. I so appreciate you gently saying, “We’re just doing the best we can under the circumstances.” And this video I loved being affirmed in my quiet life, that I don’t need a big career or to be doing more. All my best!
🍄💕🌹❤️😁 sending Irish hugs to you Anne
You are already doing the hardest job there is
I'm from New Zealand and the last 3 years have been incredibly challenging with family life-threatening conditions. My son's stage 3 cancer diagnosis and a partner's major heart surgery just recently. Plus dealing with a sister with vascular dementia and getting her into an assisted living facility. It's time now for me and your videos are my beginning journey. Thank you so very much 🥰
What an absolute treat to hear you speak on your recent emotional findings. It’s like listening to a good friend. Between motherhood and the past couple of years, I, too, feel a greater desire to embrace my joy. Over the course of 8 years, I’ve heard my fair share of people wondering when I’ll go back to work as if the job of a parent isn’t satisfactory. My mother was a SAHM mom, and I honestly never saw myself in similar shoes. I always thought I’d go take on a paid job, and now I find I have zero desire. I really enjoying homeschooling and recognize the great privilege I have that I can afford the chance. This is what makes me happy. I really think it’s important that we all honor that inner voice… whether you choose to work or not to work, thrift the plastic toys vs buying the eco friendly toys, homeschool vs public school. We all could certainly take a break, and just make peace with our inner voices and boundaries. ♥️ thanks loads for this video. It was very therapeutic. And might I argue, your insights are even more profound these days. 🙏 ✨
Awh thanks for your kind, thoughtful words. I love that you honour your inner voice… it’s so important to do… 🙏🧚♀️💕
I loved seeing your daughter playing with jam jar tops, a great toy. When we were little we loved nothing better than playing with large cardboard boxes. We would make them into forts or boats or space ships or whatever took our fancy. I love when kids can use their own imagination and feel that modern day parents buy far too much for their children like ready made little houses, play kitchens etc. Far better to let the children make them, that's half the fun.
So true. I’ve found she just loves to explore around the house and household objects are her favourite
For such a long time, I was focused on self-improvement, and struggled to relax or accept the things that were good in my life. Semi-recently I've started to really appreciate what I have and I feel less of a panicked urge to 'get better'. This video came at a perfect time.
I wish I'd been able to watch your videos 35 years ago when I had my first baby. To see how you accept "the mess" and how you prioritize your wee one and don't let the pressure of others/society make you feel like you are supposed to be doing this and that.
We just downsized to a small cottage in the woods! My husband is being made redundant and we are opting for a simpler way of life, being grateful and content with where we are and what blessings we have. Watching you with your precious child reminds me of my time as a young mum and how overwhelmed I felt at first but I adapted as she grew. It was an intense and often exhausting time but I fully embraced it and I’m so glad I did stay at home with her. It was important to me. Xx
I'm rewatching some of your videos tonight. Always comforting and calming to hear your voice. I love hearing the little fairy in the background. She has a great life with you and Terry. You're giving her so many wonderful experiences just by doing your daily routines with her. My dad was the gardener in the family. He let me help as a young child, and I remember some of those times with him. Gardening is my favourite hobby. He has been gone for many years but always feels close to me when I'm in the garden. Your little one will remember these days too🩷
An astonishingly beautiful video in every possible way. Thank you so much for coming back! ❤
I m a Pennie too 😘And I Love this channel
Thank you for this video. The world just feels so heavy lately and it’s nice to hear an uplifting message
I’d forgotten how much I’d missed you! Your baby is adorable ! Xxx more please
Thank you for reminding us all that amidst the hardships of today and the expectations of being and having more, that it’s ok to be happy and contented with less. I was happy with a smaller home and a lesser career so that I could enjoy my life and spend time with my children. Others thought I should be reaching higher, but I was quite satisfied. I have had a lovely life in my smaller existence and my family and myself have been much richer and happier for the time spent and the experiences together. I don’t regret a thing and fully believe that less is more. We all are much more grateful and appreciative as a result. ❤
So true Marie… thanks for sharing your wisdom with us ❤
Oh her little hands and feeding herself! I love it so much. You are a loving mother.
I honestly can’t tell you how much your channel does for me and my own mental health - it’s a wonderful piece of escapism and always puts a lot of things in perspective. I’m so happy you’re happy and your gorgeous little girl looks an absolute delight. Sending lots of love and gratitude 🙏🏻🌼💕
Yes lead by example but never stop talking to your child. Sing! Read! Fill their ears with your sweet voice for they won't always have you.
Lovely as always.
Haha thanks Kathleen. I knew when I said it that I meant it in a different context. I never stop talking to our little ones. Singing is especially fun! 🎉❤
There is nothing more beautiful than a baby's laugh. Thank you for the inspiring message and for another lovely video.
I wish you would be on more often. I miss you. You are great person to listen to to make us come and enjoy the day. God bless take care.
God’s peace be with you all.🙏🏽
So nice to have you back. Say hi 👋 to Terry for me ☺️ I enjoyed everything about this. The filming, the music, the content, baby and her sweet little noises and laughter. A lovely way to wind down on a Sunday evening here. Thank you 🙏 We can be aware of the suffering, loss and pain in the world RN whilst still being grateful for where we are and what we have, who we love and who loves us ❤ And we can contribute in ways that are meaningful to us. See you next time. Vicki xx
Thanks Vicki! 😊 have a great month. Until next time… ❤
❤❤❤
Oh how I wish I could live in a cottage like yours, with such beauty growing all around me and that little fireplace you have.
I’m a new subscriber and I loved this video. It’s so peaceful and relaxing. I felt like I was transported into another world from the bustling, materialistic city I live in. I’m definitely someone who tends to feel guilty for feeling good when I know others are suffering so this was such a needed message for me. Thank you. Can’t wait for your next video.
Thanks Annette! Lovely to have you here. Welcome. ❤ see you hopefully next month. Be well new friend ❤
God loves us and wants us to be at peace
I lost my happiness during the pandemic and had to work hard to get it back - weekly therapy, breathing exercises, lifestyle and diet changes. It was a lot. And now that I have my happiness back, I am so much more protective of it. I still check the headlines of a reputable news source so I know what's going on the world, but for me there is no more TV news that is sensationalized to play on my fears and sadness. I put my happiness ahead of most things these days to keep myself feeling like myself. My family needs that from me.
On a lighter note, I love seeing your little one in these videos. She is at my very favorite age - when they are sitting upright on the floor and look like a little pumpkin ready to be picked from the patch. What a doll. And on a totally superficial note, your bangs look super cute! They really suit you! :-)
Hello Niamh 🥰, it's so wonderful to see you back here with us all. Your videos have helped me in abundance, I now look after myself so much better than I used to. I am so much happier, I'm working on being calm as it doesn't come easily to me but that's OK I'll get there slow & steady. Your little girl is beautiful & say hello to Terry for me. Thank you for all of your help that you didn't know you've given to me, your voice is like the Angel on my shoulder gently reminding me to "keep it simple". Thank you, take care & see you next month. All my love Zoe xxx ♡
Agreed! there's no need to feel guilty to feel good even when others don't
oh my thrilled to see you are back online sharing with us again your wonderful life, such a precious little girl who will grow up with your simple lifestyle.. ,from Calgary Canada, I spent most of our summer in the garden, and was saying so few bees, we had large bumble bees in abudance. By August my gardening became difficult with a lot of summer heat, so I let it slide, stopped pressuring myself to get vegetable planted, and enjoyed the few we did have. Gave to our community garden 3 fruit trees I had not yet planted. There is always next growing season to enjoy! One day I will bake your soda bread with my 9 yr old grandson who lives with me.. a project I am looking forward to do with him.
Enjoy your autumn exploring with your new little fairy!!
When I carefully packed my apples one year, a mouse found my box and are them all 🐀 this year I’ve dried apple slices and made some applesauce i guess but we call it mashed apples here. Your little girl reminds me of when my (now) teenagers were small. They do grow up fast! I loved hearing her beautiful laugh when you tickled her 💕
Finally I heard ...
" hello there ! Welcome back to fairy land cottage "
Most therapeutic lines .
Thankyou .
I can’t tell you how joyful these videos make me. They really inspire me and reaffirm my deep appreciation for the little things( which are actually the big things). I so appreciated what you said about it’s okay to be okay. I love my life and I’m in a very happy marriage and i have wonderful children. I find myself minimizing this because I know many people don’t have that. It’s always such a balance to be respectful but to still be able to express my gratitude for what I have. It’s so true that you can’t be sad, or sick, or poor enough to make another not sad not sick not poor. In fact you really can only help from a place opposite of the problem. Thank you for sharing your life and your beautiful perspective. ❤
Ah thank you for watching and for understanding the perspective! Enjoy your day caring and sharing with your family! ❤
It’s ok to be happy even when others are sad , as you said. After Al, sometimes YOUR happiness is the only thing that cheers them up! 😊❤
It's not happy people who are thankful, but thankful people who are happy!
Welcome back!
I am so deeply moved by this message - one that I've strived to embody also, which as a sensitive empath can be difficult at times. It's interesting that this message is about being ok with being happy despite the pain in the outside world. As I watched you with your sweet little fairy picking apples, another layer of grief came up to the surface for me around the fact I'll never have a child in this lifetime. That simple and precious moment between you and your baby and nature deeply touched me to my core. While I grieved again for a few moments I was then able to come back to the space of all the good and joy I do have in my life despite this. The more we heal those layers of grief and pain, the more we can find joy in what we do have - that has certainly been my experience. So it's important to not push away the grief or pain, acknowledge it, integrate it, and find happiness in what is. I'm SO glad you are back making videos as they are balm to the soul. Bless you! ❤
❤❤❤
Dear Barb, thank you for sharing. Your words hold such raw wisdom which I will hold on my heart. Thank you for being here. I appreciate you ❤
@@FairylandCottage I appreciate your too dear one. 🥰
@@Anna-Maria79 💖
The thing I’m enjoying at the moment is watching another Fairyland Cottage video! I love your stories, messages and philosophies and I thank you for sharing your family with me ❤. 🇨🇦
16:03 thank you. i really needed this 'motivation.' For the last few months whenever I do anything, in the kitchen or any other work, things fall down all of a sudden. And due to this my anger and anxiety levels shoot up. This simple sentence really did change my outlook. I know this will not come instantly, but it really did make me understand that things happen and there's nothing to feel bad. Thank you so much. I have always loved your words of wisdom, big or small. It really makes me calm. I wish you and your family all the very best. Take care. God bless us all.
Ah glad to hear. Keep being kind to yourself. No one else will be and you deserve it! We are all just doing our best
I love how calm and grounding this video is. I love the simple but happy life you are living. Its inspiring!
Love and peace for all of you lovely being here❤!
Hello from North Carolina in the United States! I want to say thank you, with all my heart, for your beautiful and soothing videos and calming messages!! This video came to me in a time when I truly needed it most! You and your beautiful family are a blessing!! Congratulations for the newest member of your family and thank you again for sharing your love and wisdom with me!! ❤️
Omigosh! Your life is the ultimate goal for me. Peace. Family. Health. You're there! Your house is perfect! "Lack" is the last word that I would associate with you 🧡 Thank you so much for this beautiful video. Your little fairy is so very precious 🤗
Great to see you back. Congratulations with having a beautiful child. Thank you for such a soothing and calming video. I always feel calmer and revitalised after watching.
What a joy it gave me to be able to see your videos again. During this time I have also had a baby who is now 7 months old. Your videos give me a lot of peace, thank you very much for sharing them. A warm hug from Spain
Awwwww…..a wee one. That’s why it’s been a while 😊.
I found this video so beautiful and extremely calming and soothing. The big message for me was to stop pressuring myself about life and where I’m at in it. The message to just enjoy simple moments and stop thinking about….”what I would do if I had money”, or “what do I need to buy, or do to make my life better”. This was a great reminder to enjoy the quiet and comfort of my small home!
Blessings to you and your family ❤❤❤
I love the baby giggles 🤗🥰
The idea of jar lids being a good toy for your toddler reminded me of all the times my niece would have the most wonderful of times sitting in front of (and sometimes *in*) her Grandma's kitchen cabinet where all the plastic food containers & lids were kept, rearranging them, stacking them, knocking them over, banging them together, trying to fit them inside of each other... We invested some money in super-duper educational toys and even some special electronics, and the truth is that she learned at least as much, and developed better motor skills, playing with "whatever" on her own terms than from the very structured, pre-programmed, pre-designed, pre-everythinged "educational" toys that cost so much more. Letting our children (and hopefully our "grown up" selves) exercise and engage our imaginations is such a powerful way to develop into well-rounded, fully functional human beings. :-)
I agree with that wisdom and try to live by it. I heard it in a metaphor: Happy people are dancing around, giving the world their energy and love. From time to time some of them need to sit down and cry, work through something and the others keep the flow going, so that those sad ones may join in when they are ready again. And these roles change. We always need some people to keep the happiness in the world so that we do not forget about it.
Such a beautiful message of light and love. The world seems so heavy and for us empathic people can feel even more so. The quote is a reminder that if we can find the happiness within ourselves, and let ourselves feel that, then it can only help to raise the positive energy on our world. Such a beautiful video 💖
So true Francine. Thanks for watching and being here ❤
I found this to be the most profound and healing video I’ve yet to find on your site Niamh. All the things you shared and the messages you put forth ran straight into my heart. It took me another 20 years to learn what you already have achieved. My “generation “ here in America was so set on achieving peace….what we saw in our government sickened us and hardened us…because we felt helpless sometimes to make any change happen. We grew older with that sense of striving but not always achieving. I sit here now in my quiet Montana cottage and simply treasure the fact that you are part of the people who will bring a wholesome world in which we can all flourish. 💕Cathy
I absolutely adore the message in this video!!! It’s ok to be happy!!! If we stick to this, I’m a firm believer that we can raise the vibration and spread joy instead of misery!!!
Aw❤ her little baby giggle. So cute it hurts. Thanks for sharing.
The other day I stood in the sunshine for half an hour and picked blackberries. Then I was blessed with some apples. So today I am experimenting with making apple and black berry jam in the slow cooker. Feeling very quiet and still, as a Sunday should be.
How beautiful! But talk a LOT to your little fairy, so she grows up with your lovely accent instead of a Disney Channel voice. I'm so glad you are back on RUclips with your peaceful and beautiful videos. ❤️
thank you for your beautiful videos made with so much love. So glad you're back. Watching and listening to your message was calming. So much chaos in our world today. You, Terry, and little Fairy are a blessing. Enjoy your forest gatherings and the simple life. Till next month, may we all feel peace in our hearts.
Loved those little baby laughs in the background. So cute!
I really enjoyed this video and the message. It was really comforting and made me feel a little bit better about just living my life, despite all the problems in my life and in the world surrounding it
Thank you! It's so nice having you back. Enjoy October 🍁🍂
It's a great reminder that it's okay to feel good, especially during these trying times in our world. No need to shoulder all of the world's troubles or feel guilty because we are presently feeling peace, calm, and happiness in our own lives. Your Little Fairy is a blessing in your life, teaching you how to be present, to look in wonder at the world through her eyes as she experiences it. The trees, birds, mushrooms, clouds, rain, and sunshine; playing with her tin lids, puzzles; or simply listening to a bedtime story. "Slow down to the speed of wisdom"--Mary Pipher, Ph.D. is one of my favorite mantras to live by. Thanks for sharing your October in Fairyland with your Little Fairy in tow. Jenny USA 👨👩👦🌳🥀🐛🦋🐝🐦🌦🌈
Thanks Jenny 🦉🍄🌻❤️❄️🎄🪔
@@FairylandCottage You're welcome!
Thank you & gratitude! 🙏
May the divine bless your beautiful & lovely family with all his divine grace guidance and protection forever! 🤗💐
Love, Light & Happiness to you and your family! The same to all in the Fairyland Cottage Community around this Beautiful World! " When the going gets tough, the tough get going " is a popular saying in America...God Bless from the USA! We CAN Do This!
Samre is the most beautiful video🌱so much wisdom in it, and Niamh’s velvety voice! I listen to it as a podcast and an escape from stress
Watching you with your little fairy is bringing back wonderful memories of my daughter, now 22 in her last year of college 💕 Time goes so fast .. My son has a little girl now 2 and it's a joy being grandma and watching her grow. I just turned 60 and am now realizing how important it is to take care of our mind and bodies so can be there with the ones we love. I was actually feeling sadness the other day about what terrible things are going on in the world and what a mess everything is so your message really spoke to me. Ir's okay
Sorry, wasn't finished! It's ok to feel good, happy, slow down and enjoy life. Best wishes to your family from the U.S.
Thanks Lori for sharing!! My parents are finding such joy with their grandchild too ❤ precious times
I didn’t see you’re back! What surprise to wake to. The family is asleep. Let’s have a nice morning together.
And the quote… sometimes need to remember. Our family loves to adventure. “The next Roberts Family adventure…” our saying. However, when major adventures aren’t happening I find my feeling bad about that even though I’m still happy in the day to day adventure. It’s ok to be happy with the day to day to Liz. Remember that.
It's a delight to have you back! you're videos always make me fell cozy and relaxed! Thank you! :)
Tickling your daughters feet, and hearing her sweet giggle brought tears of remembrance to me. I remember the simple joy of tickling my son (now 24), and the beautiful laughs and giggles that are music to a mother's ear. Enjoy all your sweet happy moments with your "Little Fairy." What a beautiful joy 😊
Happy Birthday Terry! I know its not in October but I was watching this video today and remembered you had a birthday coming up. Peace, blessings and love to you and your lovely family🌹
Oh, I love this! If you're happy, you're accused of 'toxic positivity' - like I'm supposed to be miserable because others are? Nah, I've worked on myself way too much to go backwards - thank you so much for making this video! :)
It’s only toxic positivity if you are throwing it in the face of those who are genuinely struggling and are being honest about it. If you use positivity to shut down what they are going through or feeling, that’s when it becomes toxic. Feeling positive about your life isn’t toxic. Only when you use it shut down other people’s feelings and experiences and shame them for what they are feeling is it toxic. I’ve been in that position, when a lot of really bad things were happening in my life and I was trying to express what I was going through and feel like I had a support system, and I had a friend at the time try to shut me down with false positivity. And they told me that everything bad that was happening was my fault and I had manifested it and that I was toxic because of it. When in reality most of it was a result of workplace bullying and manipulation and narcissistic abuse happening in my personal life. I was blamed for the abusiveness of others. Just because I was trying to navigate it and reach out for support, instead of just putting a fake smile on my face and acting like nothing was wrong.
@@KiraHelenRose Yeah, that's what I thought toxic positivity was - but I think the term has been misused to mean that you cannot be positive AT ALL?? Dunno?
It's a pleasure to watch your videos again.
I love a simple life and appreciate what we do have. We live with the constitution of "essential" is this really needed. So much one doesn't really need.
Love little Fairy ❤
If we are happy we can make other humans happy with just a smile...😊 and give the day a chance to be the best in our Live with such small things

This RUclips site has been my salvation during these restless times. I feel that you would enjoy it too.
Thank you for this beautiful message and soothing creation with your adorable fairy family🧚🏻♂️.
As I listened to the quote about it being okay to be happy, my thought extended the quote to add: and being happy is not only modeling our purpose for being here; it is what raises our vibration and thereby raises the universe’s vibration. 🌠 Thank you for accomplishing that.
This is a very inspirational piece. If we can share and be happy with what we have. The world
be so wonderful. We should be our brothers keeper. Thank you.
There is nothing more lovely than witnessing a well-loved, happy baby! Thank you for sharing your little fairy with us. You may enjoy the book Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. In it she talks about the principles of the Honorable Harvest as well.
honestly Ireally needed to hear that quote. I always find myself apologizing for being an optimist, for being thankful and grateful, for always finding the bright side. It's so strange now that I think about it.
Thanks for sharing the joyful baby sounds! I love it. 😍
I love your quotes and your calming voice as you go through out the day with your family doing your daily routine.Thank you taking me along!
What a precious family. I’m so happy for you.
We go on a lot of nature walks and my youngest son, who is 11, collects acorns. He leaves them out for the squirrels and we let them plant them or eat them. We have an abundance of small animals that visit our garden every day.
I was so delighted to find your video today, what a special treat. Now I will be saving lids for my new grandson, what a brilliant idea!
You're right! I always feel oppressed knowing that a lot of people in the world are suffering and this feeling is starting to hurt also myself. So I'll think of what you said and I'll try to be happier appreciating more my life. Have a nice and happy autumn👋👋
Thanks Niamh for sharing. It's just soooo much peace seeing your video.
Pls keep sharing, even if it's not edited to the T because it's just wonderful to see you 😊
God bless you and ur family, precious little one ❤️
Those apples are beautiful ! So happy you are a mom now ! I live in Arizona's desert and it has finally cooled down here. We are really enjoying the cool, fresh air. Such a great time of year it is here for the next 6 months. Are you a stay at home Mom now? Your baby is lovely. Thanks for sharing 🧚🧚♂🧚♀
What a beautiful happy little fairy & so curious
Everyone can learn from small creatures
It is so great to see you and your little family growing; I love how you call your daughter your little 🧚♀️, she is so very adorable! I am a mother and Oma and I teared up as you walked around picking apples with your little one; something I did with my 30+ year old sons many years ago, I miss those days. I am very grateful for you, I have always loved your calm, peaceful, real life. Thank you ❤️
Awh thank you Delia! I try and keep it real ❤️🍀
Such a different attitude now from when I was growing up after WWII. Back then the emphasis was on empathy, compassion for others, because everyone was reeling from the horror of the atom bomb. Now though, the emphasis is on self, making sure one’s self is cared for, that one’s self is happy etc. so foreign to, this emphasis on self, and at 75, I am sure I will never feel comfortable with it, or think it is valid.
Those fairy giggles made my day. Wise words as well, let's just be happy with what we have. Life is not a competition or a comparison.
Love the last line you wrote. I wish everyone could see life that way.☺️
Thank you for the beautiful and calming video. And a special thank you for the baby giggles. That’s a sound I miss deeply since my babies are now 10 and 13.
Being content with what you have, who you love, and where you are is the definition of a happy life. The little fairy's giggles, squeaks, squeals, and murmurings make lovely music.
So lovely to hear from you again and to see your beautiful daughter - congratulations to you both. I think it’s important to remember that everyone has days or times when they aren’t ok, but there are good days too. I try to spend a few moments each night thinking back on my day, giving thanks for the good things, just accepting those that weren’t, and acknowledging wherever I have been at fault. I can then ‘park’ the day & sleep, for tomorrow is a whole new day.
if i could give a million likes it wouldn't be enough🥰
It's important to be a light all over us, because if we feel sad, culprit or angry, we feed the world with negative vibs....
Hello from the South of Spain where we have 6 months of Summer this year... I miss automn, fresh weather, hot teapots....
Enjoy and share your nice and simple routines, your are a fairy and we are your kindred friends from all over our planet🌈🌍
Thank you for being a kindred friend. So so true what you say. We need more light indeed ❤
I like how you pointed out that children will let you know what they are interested in. Have you looked into child-led learning? Also Waldorf style toys are about open-ended play. Your family is so, so beautiful. 💙
Yes! Waldorf-style learning came to mind as I watched the video. You are absolutely doing a wonderful job. Babies and children learn best with self directed exploring especially in the natural world. I taught toddlers for 26 years and learned a lot about Waldorf education.
Truly my happiest time of life was my own as an infant/toddler/preschooler and then teaching in those age groups at daycare. Thank you for the reminder that it's ok to me happy when we see others who are not. We all suffer at some points (few or many) but I have come to find being thankful for the happy times help us through the sad times and helping those suffering as much as we can helps us feel less hopeless.
I’m loving fall here in the desert. It is finally cooler and I’m spending my time walking for miles.
