    Your home is charming Sophie.
    Always enjoy your calming videos
    with superb footage. A home ought
    to reflect the person or people living
    there. Nothing worse than an
    object just not being used, gathering
    dust. Same for clothes just hanging
    up, not being worn. Kindest greetings from Zurich - Switzerland.

      You are so right about objects just collecting dust and clothes not being worn. I didn't want my house to become a storage for all my belongings, so definitely needed to change my mindset. Thank you always for your sweetest comments.

    I love your room. When I lived alone, everything was under control, and my room was always tidy. But since I got married, had a child. My environment completely changed. I love my family dearly, but I confess that I miss my tidy space!

      I'm sure it's a completely different story and even more challenging to keep tidy home with a child. I admire mothers for just keeping the house under control. That is no easy task! I hope you have a space or corner in your home where you can feel relaxed.

    You're inspiring me so much. I have somehow ended up with way to much stuff. I want to be surrounded by the things I need and love, and I want peace. I also don't have a desire to fit everything I own in a suitcase. I think I'm finding a good balance now. Letting go is so much easier when you know you're making space for peace. Love your videos. ❤

    Sometimes social media makes us thing everything should look certain way, or with a specific aesthetic all the time... but reality is, as Sophie said, how do we feel about our own space and how we work in there. I feel less anxious about my home belongings since I became a minimalist! And if you’re looking for that relief too, this community and life style then is going to be keenly suitable for you! 😌
    By the way, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS 🌸✨

    I love your home! It is so inspirational and peaceful. My parents used to live in Kauai before I was born and I’ve always wondered what it was like :)
    I currently live on a truck route in mine and my husband’s first home and it’s been super frustrating. It’s impossible to drown out the constant sound of loud dump trucks going by and shaking our home. I tell myself this is temporary and we will move in a few years, but it has really put a damper on things when all I want is to enjoy finally having a home, and to focus on my peace. I don’t open my windows very often as it stresses me out and I will never get used to it. I hope to one day be in as much peace and within nature as you 🤍

    • @MalamaLife
      @MalamaLife  4 года назад +1

      Thank you so much Brianna. I feel like Kauai is on a different level of peace, quiet and nature :) but of course, I am so grateful for abundant nature of Maui as well. I can't imagine always having the noise of the trucks going by the house- that is so unfortunate, but it seems like you are looking at the positive sides! I am sure in your next home that you choose, you will appreciate the peace and quiet even more. Thank you for supporting the channel

    I accessorize my living space with plants and limited decorations. Decorations although aesthetically pleasing to look at, it is not pleasing to clean. So for me, less non-living decorations suits my way of minimalism and allows me to focus more on mindful living. You have a charming home.
