Definitely would love to see a recipe video. I have followed you for so many years that I still have a screenshot of the congee recipe when it used to be on your website lol!
I’m all about the simple minimal routine. Being at home with my dog, reading, tending the garden, sketching and cooking vegan food is my peace. Quiet and peace > excitement ✌🏻💚💖
I was thinking how much you’ve changed since I watched your early videos; love your different stages… re: food, yes it would nice to see some of your ideas. I’ve been veggie/vegan for more than 40 years, so new ideas are always welcome 🥂
I am so much like you. I cannot abide clutter, I enjoy eating the same vegan meals day after day, and I spend hours every day with my nose in a book. Thank you once again for reminding me that I am not alone. I appreciate you so much, Jenny Mustard. Thank you for being you and for sharing yourself with us. 💜
I feel like my minimalist life is way boring but so rewarding to me. I love the simple life so much though. I love that David loves tacos that much that it is a mode of meditation. I also always make my bed, wash my face, and brush my teeth. At night I love reading, drinking cocoa, and snuggling with my husband after the kids are in bed. I feel that when I sit outside on the porch, that is probably my mode of meditation.
The Chinese tofu in the jar is super salty because it's intended to be eaten in very tiny small bites instead of large chunks. Traditionally, people eat this with rice porridge (congee) and you only take a tiny bit at a time. So a whole jar could last for several months if you don't eat it every day. I hope this makes sense.😊
I don't wanna miss a single second of your videos! They are so beautifully and thoughtfully curated, and the content is always so relaxing to watch! :) Thank you!
If my space/home etc is not clean and tidy and clutter free, then I cannot rest and I have to clean it up. I am also a compulsive list maker and planner. Organisation is the only way to have order in life.
How are we living such drastically different lives but I feel so many similarities in our personalities ? Fascinating. I love that we can relate and learn from total strangers living very different lives! Also, I've never heard someone say outloud that meditation wasn't for them, so THANK YOU😂, cuz same!
Some love to go to a Spa to get a mudpack or massage or go to the sauna...not for me. I relax/meditate to music. My whole life I can seriously sit on the floor with my headphones on listening to music for hours!
I would love to see a food video and/or a reading day vlog. This video was lovely. I'm the same way a tidy room. Walking into a lovely, tidy, well-lit room and taking a deep breath...nothing better.
I love your minimal esthetics they are soothing and delightful to my soul! I am currently living in other people's homes as my husband and I travel but I am so looking forward to having my own space to design it exactly to my preferences! Your videos spark joy in my day:)
I think we need a jenny mustard jewelry collection video. You have so many gorgeous nicely curated pieces and I'd love to know how and where you get them
I will have a made bed, a clean face and brushed teeth... Sis... you got me on this one 😂. Same here, no matter what goes on in the World those 3 things makes in my mind a save place, it's like I have taken care of me first ❤ it's what makes the balance of my day
Your description of the airy, minimal and clean home decor helped me so much to understand my own preferences in this realm! It's so true that it makes me calmer and happier, literally breathing deeper.
My mental health improved so much when I moved in a big, brightly lit apartment from a small, cramped one (having money is nice). I can't function in a cluttered space, and having fewer things and a lot of space and light helps so much.
I have two little kids, tidy is my main activity all day. One thing, that seems to be liked by every interior design junkie and just is putting me really off is placing objects on books 😢 Books in our place are respected and nothing gets put on them 😂 The list of nice things related to being minimal is nice, I relate to most of these things ❤❤
Hi Jenny! After some delivery problems I finally got your book a couple of weeks ago. And I read it when I was on my holiday. It was absolutely amazing! So I want to thank you for putting this beauty out into the world!
I started graduate school this past Monday, and having a morning and night routine is essential! Funnily enough, my reading materials for this week touched a bit on English bilingualism in Scandinavian countries. Since you're officially an English-language author now, I'd love to hear about you personal relationship to both Swedish and English. Oh, and YES PLEASE for the recipe video! I'm a vegetarian and always on the lookout for new things to cook.
We have such different lives, but I can relate so much to everything you said here! Meditation, no thank you....tea/ wine and reading after a social day, YES!
Part of my weekly routine and self care prep is making my own kombucha. After the worry of Am I Doing It Right of the first few weeks, I'm in a rhythm and Its part of Sunday mornings now. A weekly supply of home made green tea kombucha - life is good.
I would love to hear more about new vegan meals ideas! And, I know this is weird but I'd like a video on tableware too! Also I'm so sorry to ask such a superficial question after your beautifully explained points but please I need to know: is this your natural hair colour? I find it lovely : ) I would like to go back to my natural dark ash-blond colour but I'm not sure, I need to find a way to make it less boring, maybe some very natural highlights...
I have that same issue with balance of introvert and extrovert. I find, as I age, the balance changes a little bit. It works for me. I admire my friends who are constantly social but I cannot do it!
I'm 100% with you re: needing cleanliness and order in my home/work environment. I learned this actually very early in life....could not focus on school work until I took a bit of time and tidied up my space. Alternatively, I felt more calm and focused studying/working/writing outdoors.
I am sooo routine-orientated that just watching this video was soothing to me. By the way, I finished your book a few days ago and just loved it. I don't usually read books about relationships, but I wanted to read this because you wrote it, and I'm so glad i did. Your writing is excellent, and I will absolutely be buying your next book. Thanks for getting me outside my usual genres and trying something new!
I would love to learn to cook those beautiful dishes! I am more relaxed in a simple and clean environment but somehow I can't manage to have one. it's always cluttered and piles everywhere. I never really learned to clean...I guess I need to find myself an expert.
I miss your beautiful food videos so much😢… please do it more often again😍. And why have you made all your wonderful old food videos privat??? So much effort in them and now we can’t watch them again?
Eclectic curated minimalism is for me because removing too much stimulation leaves my brain bored and unable to relax. Think how soothing swirling mandalas impact people.
I try to keep it simple too, especially when it comes to night routine, it's all about decompressing. It's always so nice to watch your videos, just give me calm cool vibes.
So excited that you enjoyed fermented tofu! It goes so well with congee, and it is friendly for your gut! That brand is also solid, but I highly recommend you give a try of spicy ones plus some Taiwanese ones
I'm the same, I need a clean, calm and tidy space to be able to work. A cluttered environment, a cluttered mind. Oh, and yes to the Sunday reading vlog. That sounds delightful!
Thanks for this video, Jenny! I also struggle with quiet/static meditation, due to fibromyalgia pain and a chattering mind. When I'm tense, I forget to breathe - accidentally holding breath in and randomly exhaling while concentrating (I worry that those "box-breathing" meditations may worsen this weird habit). My favourite meditation type is Kirtan - it's harder for the mind to wander when singing Sanskrit mantras (and also, great for the lungs)! And jogging on the treadmill to remixes is meditative in a different way. There's many options to relax our minds, and each person can find what works for them ✨
I so appreciate your note about meditation vs. meditative activities. I'm the same way, and I find reading both stimulating and calming. I also find playing football oddly meditative ;)
I don't wear the same thing every day but I have a work outfit for each day of the week which limits the options and reduces decision fatigue. I love routine too and I'm not a fan of clutter, though I wouldn't consider myself to be minimalist. I've just been away visiting family over the bank holiday weekend and missed my routine so much. My mindfulness tactic is walking with my dog. We alternate between coastal and woodland walks but that's what brings my mind back and reduces my stress levels. As soon as I returned from the city I put my walking boots on and headed to the woods. Bliss
Similar things here Jenny. Similar. There is 1thing my parents taught my sister and I when we were very young. Already in kindergarten. Is to have your clothes you wear the next day ready, out, nearby the bed. So that once you get up, you do your morning routine and you don't waste time faffing around with your clothing, because it's already done, it's designed, it's ready. I don't know if this is something that helps anyone else here.
made bed- clean face- brushed teeth. Excellent . I do them along with taking my vitamins, drinking my fire cider/elderberry syrup 'potion' and getting my cold brew coffee ready in my routine. Also I light incense, clean any leftover dishes among a few other things every day. I feel that when they are done I can start to pick out the most important jobs , usually no more than 3, that need to be done. Right now it's mow the lawn, cut up tree branches that have fallen and tend to my garden. All is right with the World when I have accomplished those.
Definitely would love to see a recipe video. I have followed you for so many years that I still have a screenshot of the congee recipe when it used to be on your website lol!
Haha, will have to make a new one.
Yes to meal prep/recipe videos! :)
😊
I want your congee recipe!
I’m all about the simple minimal routine. Being at home with my dog, reading, tending the garden, sketching and cooking vegan food is my peace. Quiet and peace > excitement ✌🏻💚💖

Would love a recipe video. I'm vegan too and always on the lookout for new food inspiration!
please I would love a foodie video! I'm especially intrested in your take on a noodle soup since the colder months are slowly aproaching :)

i would LOVE a video about you favourite daily recipes as well as the reading vlog! These are the things I care about the most. food and books. yum!
Would love an in-depth skincare routine.
Hi Jenny! After some delivery problems I finally got your book a couple of weeks ago. And I read it when I was on my holiday. It was absolutely amazing! So I want to thank you for putting this beauty out into the world!
I love how I can relate to so many of your feelings. Also, I would love to see a congee recipe or more detailed how you eat in a day video!
Yes please do a what I eat in a day. Your videos are so relaxing :)
Try fermented tofu + Asian style congee (rice porridge).
Love a congee recipe video & the simple, peaceful life appeals to me as well.

Meditation, no thank you....tea/ wine and reading after a social day, YES!
Love this video! Such a joy and calm watching it that it may be considered a meditative experience in itself.
Part of my weekly routine and self care prep is making my own kombucha. After the worry of Am I Doing It Right of the first few weeks, I'm in a rhythm and Its part of Sunday mornings now. A weekly supply of home made green tea kombucha - life is good.

Yes! Please share any recipes and do a show on what you eat in a day!
I feel what you talking about, exactly the same for me. And I swim every morning before breakfast in the see that is my meditasyon
sounds lovely!
Congee video, please! I keep hoping for that every time you bring it up. :)

please do a video where u show ur fav recipes! would be so amazing : )
Eclectic curated minimalism is for me because removing too much stimulation leaves my brain bored and unable to relax. Think how soothing swirling mandalas impact people.
I am with you Jenny, I love the simplistic well balanced life. I love me time with my partner and my puppy Pomeranian doing stuff altogether.
Jenny, you're a delight to watch/listen to. I too enjoy simple eating.
I try to keep it simple too, especially when it comes to night routine, it's all about decompressing. It's always so nice to watch your videos, just give me calm cool vibes.
yesyesyes a foodie video please ❤
So excited that you enjoyed fermented tofu! It goes so well with congee, and it is friendly for your gut! That brand is also solid, but I highly recommend you give a try of spicy ones plus some Taiwanese ones
- run or workout, where i can be left to my thoughts
- i'm definitely satisfied with simple & repetitive meals
- i would love a congee video ♥️
I listen to my favorite creators and watch YT vids or do deep breathing exercises. And I love a good nap.
I'm the same, I need a clean, calm and tidy space to be able to work. A cluttered environment, a cluttered mind. Oh, and yes to the Sunday reading vlog. That sounds delightful!

I would love to know where you got your computer desk from, I love it and have such a hard time finding the perfect minimalist writing desk ❤
You are just lovely and crafty in all you say and do, Jenny. ☺️ And I really enjoyed your novel! xoxox from Germany!
YES PLEASE do the recepies! 🥗 (also, I can't cook so the more details the better :p )
Your hair! So stunning!
I so appreciate your note about meditation vs. meditative activities. I'm the same way, and I find reading both stimulating and calming. I also find playing football oddly meditative ;)
The last advice is a great one! Having a steady morning and evening routine ensures structured and productive day.

I would love the congee recipe!
I still use your granola recipes from years ago. Good things stay good!

Would love to see a recipe video too! Also, I was wondering, your hair is so beautiful, do you do anything specific to grow/maintain it?
Definitely I love the minimalistic style ❤ what do you think guys? Maximalist/ minimalist or essentialist? 😄
Yes yes yes please some recepies ! Nice easy ones please !
Yes to a “what I eat.. thank you.
Love this video. I would love the recipe.
Thank you! I am so obsessed with this exact same wangzhihe fermented tofu and I felt so wird...Now I see I'm not the only one😂
Definitely a foodie video for sure! 👻
I would absolutely love a food video, recipes etc. I love your style!
Please let me know about the furry chair lounge thingy. I love it!
Definitly would love recipe video.
I feel that way.
I love your videos and quite agree with you about almost everything. But fermented tofu….you have to be kidding! In Taiwan we called it stinky tofu.
Recipes plz! Decision fatigue be real and I’d love to to try your brain-food choices ❤
A recipe video would be lovely!
Yes to congee recipe, I was just thinking I want to know how to do that 😂😊
1:40 iMac isn't plugged in yet 🖥 #aestheticsFirst haha
Please make a video with recipes! I would like to make the noodle soup and congee :)
