Where is this wonderful Music from? Could you please please please make a Playlist with these calming Piano Music? 🙏🏻 I keep my life simple in saying no to leaving the house after 7 pm at the Moment to prioritize Sleep and rest during pregnancy.. i feel it just overwhelmes me every time I‘m out and about after it‘s dark outside😂
Hi Madi, random question, but I finally need new kitchen towels. 😂 I absolutely love your earthy color ones. Do you remember where you got them? Thank you! 😊
I was listening to the announcements at my church this Sunday and just blown away by all the programs they offer. The culture of busyness is everywhere. And i do struggle with guilt that we are opting out and living a simpler life. Thank you for the sweet, gentle reminders ❤️
@AM-bm2xw I definitely agree over the guilt of opting out. I am constantly being confronted when I refuse a request to go somewhere or do something. Why don’t I holiday? Why don’t I go out for spa days? Why don’t I treat myself more? Fact is, I am most happy when I’m home. Pottering in the garden or walking down the beach. I gave up on the whole superficial beauty thing years ago. My hair is natural. Nails are natural. I still do a pedicure. I still do my hair. I haven’t let myself go. I just use oil now on my face and hair. All the products have gone. People still insist on buying them for me. I’m grateful…and so is my local food bank! I hand them in there and ask them to give them to a mum who needs a boost. That makes me happy. People do not seem to understand people like us. They want to change us constantly. It can be exhausting.😢
My church offers a lot too but what I do like about that is we can go to what the Lord is leading us to go to for our own spiritual growth and leave the other programs for those who need them. Of about twenty things I could take part in, I only do one! Just my two cents! Love this channel
Maybe it’s why many of us can’t hear God speak… He spoke soo much to people in the older days. If He’s the same, today and forever, then what’s changed? Maybe, the answer, is “us”.
I love your title: extreme simplicity. That gives me so much peace. I recently resigned by exec level corp job to continue in my coaching business. I needed extreme simplicity. I keep my routines and food and exercises and clothing as simple as possible. Work on one thing a day. No complex exercise routines. Just everything as basic and simple and straightforward as possible. Thank you for your amazing content! 💛
YES! Thank you. I have told people that minimalism is about keeping what is essential to me, but then non-minimalists argue with me that minimalism is about not owning anything, and essentialism is separate. I keep stating that they work hand in hand together. Beautiful video. Keep it up.
Honestly, your videos are changing my life and getting me back to who I used to be, who I've always been. I let commitments, materialism and other "good things" get in the way of what really matters to me. Thank you for what you're doing, truly
those half-truths are the hardest to let go of. but once you see it like that, you can't unsee it. cheers to you friend! so honored to be part of your journey back to you.
I moved into the minimalism space about 2010 and haven't looked back. Less is truly best for me. It's calmer and quieter. Reducing how much stuff I had, the clothes in my closet, my books down to a curated, high value few - all were steps I took that improved my quality of life bit by bit. The biggest step I took though was just 2 years ago when I gave up owning a car. When I look at the pace of my life now, how authentic I am, how happy I am, how peaceful and relaxed I am, I know this was the biggest change that I made and had the highest pay-off. The quality of my life experiences increased when I gave up owning a car. The convenience of owning a car and having access to every person who extends an invite, every excursion that is happening all over the city, and every event diminishes the value of attending all of them. By making access less convenient, I have higher quality friends and higher value experiences.
I’m always encouraged by your videos ❤ I feel inspired without feeling like I have to go and rage purge 😅 you have a way of giving a very gentle push that’s meaningful.
I work at a preshool, and busyness, keeping the children busy, incursions, excursions, events, festivals, everything is celebrated. I used to think it was great, but the last few years as I notice more and more children with anxiety, I stop and think 'no' we are doing this all wrong. Thanks for the reminder.
I always love your message, it is so right on and meaningful. At 66, how do I keep my life simple? I retired from work in county mental health at 62. This was during Covid. I was burned out as a licensed therapist. I stopped saying yes to everyone and everything and just stopped. I moved from California to North Carolina in June and live simply and spend time with my grandkids. I try to live mindfully and prayerfully. Keep sending your message, the world desperately needs to hear it right now!🙏🏻
The two books you mentioned are the best. I read them because you have mentioned them often and i have passed them on to my family members. Your so right, it's not all about the clutter. It's a lifestyle and one we have to work on everyday. On another note, your helping me help my mome to simplify and declutter, lol. Think Swedish deth cleanse, but gently. 😂
We have five kids all but one are out of the house daycare school and apprenticeship by 9. I was used to hustling and rushing and being productive for almost two centuries and it started with our fourth child I just didn’t want to do it anymore. Now I prioritize my mental health by living in the present moment enjoying a walk wirh the dog time with my last baby then a hot cup of coffee with my husband when we get home before a spurt of productivity during the first nap and tell you what I get more done now than I seemed when my days where filled with rushing worrying and „keeping up“. My children are calmer and happier and when life does get crazy or sends a curve ball we all manage as a family and help each other out. ❤ slow living for the win 🥇
Love this perspective on minimalism! It’s a great reminder that living with less can bring so much clarity and freedom. Minimalism looks different for everyone, but i like your approach. Thanks for sharing such an inspiring journey!
I’m in the slow early stages and lately I’ve just been “letting go of the rest” I’m trying to use my favorite and best versions of things I have and trying to let go of the rest. Once I use up the best I move to the second best until I can have less and have only my favorites. It’s not extreme it’s not fast but it’s working for me.
I used to feel so pressured to buy and do all the things during holiday seasons, so much so that I begin to dread them. Now, we do what we can with what we have, and if our house doesn't look like a Christmas wonderland or we don't hit up all the festivals, that's ok! We still can have a meaningful time together baking, watching a holiday movie, or simply coloring a themed printable.
Hi, I a mom to four. I slowly started a simple living/minimalist lifestyle when I had my 2nd baby...but I lacked some support at the start and became discouraged. Now, more recently my hubby has come around in his thinking and it has become a family project to be more intentional, get rid of excessive stuff, and say no. I am encouraged by your videos, thank you! We are working on detoxing from technology (or that is our next step in January). We have been de-cluttering physical stuff, and working on the "in the one in/one out" rule.
I had my ahah moment 9 years ago when I learned that we were about to have our 5th kid (not expected). I felt overwhelmed and felt an urge to simplify to get through the first months that can be so exhausting.That is this idea of being here for my kids that helps me keep going ever since. You are so blessed to have figured that out wait sooner than me ! Thank you for your beautiful videos full of beautiful messages ❤
Glorious and true!!I’ve been working on this for a long time. When you have a large family, it’s so easy to have a lot of stuff even when it’s just essential stuff. We just had our first huge snow today in Western Colorado and it was so fun to see the excitement and get out the snow gear. We lit the fire played Colorado monopoly for five hours straight, used the sand toys for snow play, threw snowballs you know the whole bit was so wonderful. Still I was definitely feeling a bit visually overstimulated by the coats and hats and gloves for 12 people, but I have found that extra is a bit necessary because they do get wet or muddy when they go outside and then it’s nice to have a back up to go out again… this is the fun part of having all four seasons I suppose. My friend who moved to Hawaii was so thrilled to donate all of her winter gear.lol😅 flip flops for the win 🏆
Love this! I have a large fam as well and we’re moving and although I want so much to downsize our stuff…we need a lot too and it’s a process. Hoping I can let more go as we settle in to the new place. But seasonal great is a must in Utah 👍
I agree, I have a middle sized family and I am definitely working on the balance of what we need and what has just come into our home because a grandparent thought it was needed, fomo, it was a what disguised as a need, or other reasons that aren't "Real" needs.
It takes me forever to vacuum and clean every morning. I definitely have a lot of decluttering to do! Your videos always put things into perspective for me thank you, Madisun💖💖💖💖💖💖
I absolutely LOVE your videos. I’ve watched nearly from the beginning and every video is a gentle reminder to slow down with such practical tips in such a beautiful presentation. Not one is like the other and your words are so valuable. Sending some love and thanks! I always appreciate what you create! 🤗 ❤
Really important message and you really have 'grown'. It was a while ago i watched one of your video's (essentialism 😊) and how i do it is mostly to 'stay close to myself', feel, be bold... but respectful. Good luck.
I really needed to hear that right now, thanks for sharing! "Essentialism" has been one of my favorite books of all times and I keep reading it over and over, maybe I should be reading it again.
Best advice ever. I usually try to go to every friends event or rsvp no at the very last minute instead of way in advance. I said no to one today and while I absolutely love my friend, it did bring me inner peace
What a wonderful video and message. I am struggling with saying No, especially with my family - my mum, my mother-in-law, they are both crazy about seeing my kids/their grandkids...after years it´s overwhelming to devote them 2 days every week...after saying it´s gonna be every other week my mum started hating me, not talking to me... Please tell me, do you do less family gathering too? How often is it normal? Was it fair from me to cut them off to see them less often? I feel terrible and relieved at the same time.
I try to only do one social friend thing a week so I don’t overfill my mental, emotional, and physical cup. That way also, you can really enjoy your time with whomever you see.
What a beautiful video and message. A favorite part was the mention of how a cluttered environment impacts women’s hormonal balance. I resonate with this, as even having too many coffee mugs feels jagged to my very being…
Hey Madisun I’m just wondering what the title of that book you refer to often is?! Elimination efficiency? It sounds good & I want to get it. Please 🙏🏻 advise when you can. Kx
I ordered your Wholehearted Fall 2024. I had to reset my laptop and now I can't find the PDF. Could you please tell me where to look so I can download again. Thank you
There is no way you can have every room, every closet, every table or windowsill surface covered with knickknacks and bric-a-brac and then say with a straight face, every bit of this is important to me. Nope: that’s called hoarding. Hanging onto stuff your mind won’t let you discard because Grandma Nice owned it in 1906 or whatever. When you take a firm look at things and realize what you are using, what really holds value for you as when needed, you will discover you only needed this much and not a warehouse full of things, like a carpet of leaves in a forest all blended in like sludge.
When you embark on a simpler lifestyle, don't expect approval. That's the really hard part! Most everyone will fail to understand and perhaps even "feel sorry" for you. And in our current system of unbridled consumption where owning the next thing is the norm, you may even have a great deal of difficulty convincing yourself. In truth, neither excess consumption nor deprivation typically brings happiness. Unfortunately, and as is most often the case, you'll most likely know the answer when it's too late. I was your age yesterday and I'm in my 80's.
I try to live by a budget, commit to being a homemaker, cooking from scratch, and keeping my hands in the dirt…or next to the fire when boiling sap in March. I like to look people and animals in the eyes. I make extra sure to make eye contact with children and always wave back if they wave.
❤ i love you and your family so much and thank God blessing you and your family with your purpose and how life must be. ,You listening embarrassing and trusting Him with doing all that you do with Our Father God His Only Son Our Lord Jesus Christ and each family member on your journey of tuneing in to true living and life in its whole roundness. ❤i appreciate the energy love and thought you put into your videos of your life and showing how we can all do it. Your videos are inspirational and heart warming. Thank you Madi ❤ Gods rishes blessing and love continue to grow forth for your family in simple slow living ❤
Cómo me gustaría conocerte alguna vez en persona creo que eres de las personas que quisiera tener cerca todos los días para platicar te mando un gran abrazo a distancia querida madisun❤❤
Oh, but purchase my course about slow living for only $375…… please give me a brake …”you too can have this life if you only buy my info” ..your no better then other sellers….if you really wanted to help people you would just provide the info…… just another hypocrite
No one said you had to buy the course. Some may want the extra help and encouragement, and her time working on the videos is worth something too, right?
@ yes…the information is of value, but she belittles to point at the price point the course is sold at……. ‘Her lovely speech and visuals presentation is lovely” but just another “girl boss” selling a product ….. it is the hypocrisy of telling people to minimize, live slowly, spend less……. Then sales a course for $350+. No thank you , just another lecture…..
@ true her continue has value and would appear to be of honest intent, but the less is more and value yourself over money lesson ….then does not alone with a self help course for $300-$400. Many other with the same life values have channels on RUclips or other platforms, but they are not selling over price courses. My point is her professed core values do no t aline with an overpriced product. Yes, girl can make a living ( we all do) , but her “mission statement” does not equal her actions. Do as you will, follow who you will…..but she is no different from those selling everything else in life she then spouts the opposite….. does not vibe
If you want to learn from Madisun you don't need to buy the course. There is plenty of valuable knowledge she shares with us in all her videos. Have you watched them before commenting?
How do you keep your life simple? love you guys!
Beautiful video with beautiful wisdom.

Hi from Austria 😊 I like your artistic videos and your way of living. Mom of three ❤
hi back to austria! thank you love!
Thank you for this - i love the concept of essentialism. I will have to read that book.
Love your content! What is the essentialism quote on your mirror as a daily reminder?
I love all your videos that so many of us need to be reminded of ❤
I love your xl cutting board. Can you share where that’s from??
I'm going to read Essentialism! I love that you reference John Mark Comer a lot too. That book changed my life!
Beautiful. Well said.❤
What a wonderful video and message.

A favorite part was the mention of how a cluttered environment impacts women’s hormonal balance.
I resonate with this, as even having too many coffee mugs feels jagged to my very being…
yes! haha i feel that too
Thank you so much for the lovely reminders, you are making such a positive impact on my life. Lots of love from Corsica, France ❤

@ true her continue has value and would appear to be of honest intent, but the less is more and value yourself over money lesson ….then does not alone with a self help course for $300-$400. Many other with the same life values have channels on RUclips or other platforms, but they are not selling over price courses. My point is her professed core values do no t aline with an overpriced product. Yes, girl can make a living ( we all do) , but her “mission statement” does not equal her actions. Do as you will, follow who you will…..but she is no different from those selling everything else in life she then spouts the opposite….. does not vibe
If you want to learn from Madisun you don't need to buy the course. There is plenty of valuable knowledge she shares with us in all her videos. Have you watched them before commenting?
@ agreed, just watch her Vedic just like all of the others with the same mind who make a residual increase from you tube …..
You continually inspire me to keep simplifying life.🪶💫✨
