Simple life! No stress! No depression. No anxiety. That’s my dream.
Me too
The guy has death beans for when he decides to off himself. Did you even watch the whole video?
But you've got other issues you will not have otherwise, pros and cons to everything.
except the deathbeans
@@mirola73 Getting the feeling that the pros of his lifestyle are beginning to outweigh the cons of our lifestyle
"I'm disconnected... so I can be connected." - this statement is so nice. thank you
“The American dream is the world’s nightmare.” Wow! I thought I was watching a vid of a tiny house tour, but got so much more. Kudos to you Mr. Greenfield and thank you for being a good steward of your human experience.
Your bed looks comfortable. That's the most important things
You can tell he's living a good life by the muscles of his face. No tension around the eyes, a natural smile.
His face is even slightly up-turned and heallthy in a way that's now foreign to us. Staring down at phones/books/newspapers/work instead of looking out ahead to the horizon. This guy is helping us as a species just by doing this and sharing it with us.
Hmmmm yeah that's nice!
Wait when he’s not that young and his teeth begin to deteriorate. I feel bad for the guy.
@@TTatiana-nj3tw He's eating a natural diet and uses a toothbrush/floss. There's no reason whatsoever for his teeth to deteriorate.
@@letsrock1729 that’s funny)) human’s body does deteriorate whether you eat healthy or not. It’s a natural process of living and dying.
Hey there Robin, Just want to let you know you were the inspiration behind our food not lawns garden. We`ve turned our 1/3 acre plot of land into a food and polinator oasis in suburbia.
Your enthusiasm, encouragement ,and example have given us a lot to strive towards. Thanks for sharing your amazing life with us . Wishing you all of the best always.
Fabulous 💖 👌
I lived to Thailand 🇹🇭 & realized they never separated from the land and the nature of nature..
All persons moving to the south of America might learn much from Thai
and the likes of your good heartened will
Thank you 😊 💓
Hello Dear Friend,
I am full of joy hearing that my life has been of service to you. I will continue to be of service for you. I look forward to meeting you one day.
Love,
Robin

Sweet life. For me, my ugly never been washed forever 1984 g20 Chevy camper van, with high top so I can stand up in my van and exercise is awesome freedom on wheels, I am camped north of Vegas out in Great Basin Desert, nobody around me, the wilderness is my yard. Montana to Mexico up and down Rocky Mountains. Catch fish, dry meat out in my van and outside, cheap Walmart food doctored up, every thing in my van up on shelves or under my bed platform, solar power, solar shower and small plastic bathtub, 3
@@robertvann7349that’s sweet, I think I’d really enjoy that
This is how we live in Africa Love and Light!❤❤❤
I'm not ready to go this far, but this makes me think about changes that I can make. I wish you the very best.
You have more courage than 99.99% of us Robin. I think a video on the death beans would be good, death is a subject that many people are terrified to even think about, from birth we're programmed to think death in hospitals or a nursing home by the hand of pharmaceutical companies is anything other than the deplorable human torture it is. The thought of a calm peaceful and connected death in nature is a shining light compared to wasting away on a drip fed concoction of medications until the lights go out or the doctor decides you've had enough
Another part of that greater discussion is assisted suicide which should be a right for all. Thinking another human being has the right to take away your power and freedom, to force you to live in excruciating and incurable pain just for a few psychopaths to profit is so disgusting its sad that it even has to be a conversation. No decent human being can support the chemical genocide that the lower classes are subjected to
Agree. What's the (Latin or other exact) name of those death beans? Thanks in advance.
Yeah I'd like to know more about the death beans too. I hope it's not a painful poison
I too would like the video on the death beans.
And alsp not good to talk about death in the sense of suicide it might encourage children or anyone to do so too.God Bless you and keep you safe.
Minimalism, sharing with other people, community above all personal needs and keeping things simple. Got the message.
I had several items in my shopping cart, but after watching your video, guess what - I removed all of them. Thank you so much for reminding me that I already have plenty in my life to bring me happiness
❤
This man is one of my favourite people in RUclips and planet earth.
Thank you for your undying service to the Earth and teaching humans how to reconnect with nature. I feel so inspired watching this!
Hello Dear Friend!
You are very welcome!
Here are 100 suggestions of how to put that inspiration into positive action!

Hi, Rob !
I've missed you during the stress and strife global conflict. I need the balance and serenity that you offer .
Take care,

Great website!
Great videos ! Your posts popped up yesterday, since then I keep on bing watching them
Wow!!😮 I am going to be putting much of what you shared into action!!!! Thank you for caring and sharing. Recently my spirit has been leading me in this direction, and next thing I know, you showed up on my YT feed!!!😊 Your 100 changes to live happy and healthy is a game changer!!!
This is all I want. I am 28 years old and have been imagining myself living this way until I die. I do not use social media but hook into watching videos like these on RUclips which I think is more satisfying. Thank you for everything that you do for our Mother Earth. I'll get back on this comment once I finally make it to reality. To all your lovely viewers, your kind comments and pure heart is what we need for a quality life.
Can’t wait for the update!
Mee too
I’m 28 and on the same journey. We aren’t getting any younger. Might as well.
For our mother earth? Lmao
@@21cranberries21 Yes, the earth sustains us. We're made of earth and will return to the earth when we die. Not sure what's funny about it.
Can't do like U did, Robin, but surely I can reduce & reuse. Thank for the inspiration.
as a Black woman (from a partially multiracial family) I appreciate how aware you are of the systems that make up this country. even as a military veteran, I appreciate your views, your consciousness, + your desire to be a good global citizen. I'll be slowly creating something special on 50 acres that's been in my family for a long time not far from where you filmed this video. if you're still in the area by then, I would love to have you be in community with us for a couple of days. I look forward to learning from your website as I'll be brand new to the off-grid life. btw, I love seeing Black earth wisdom + farming while Black on your bookshelf. take good care, brother.
He is a wealthy man. Don't be fooled. Wake up!
Hello Dear Morgan,
Thank you for sharing what is alive in you. I am very grateful for you sharing your experience. I would absolutely love to come stay with you for a couple days in community. I'd be happy to share my insights and experience from living this life if it would be of service to you in deepening your connection to Earth and growing into your new space.
You can email me and I will surely respond: robingreenfield.org/contact
Sending love sister!
Robin
Also, speaking of books, every time I read the Bible it seems to make so many connections to living off the earth and growing food. I thank God for even the simplest things throughout my day. It is one book I cannot live without.
Yes yes yes
The Bible
Such a comforter
Amen to that
Yes, thank you Jesus for unconditional love and grace.
whomp whomp
Amen
My dude, the fact that you live in bear country with no windows and doors is mind boggling. 😮 You are inspirational. It is an extreme way to live from most people’s point of view, but you are encouraging us to do what we can and move the needle for ourselves and our families. Thank you for the lessons. Be well on your way 🙏🏻
yeah and sleeping right next to all that yummy food too.
Gotta speed up the "return to earth" process a little, getting excreted by a bear does the trick
does he really live in bear country? I would like to hear him respond to this. Surely he would not keep the house so open if there were a high risk of bears. Perhaps there is an explanation?
He has electric fence? 🤔🤔🤔
I live in tennessee near the Smoky Mountains ..my grandson and I came 30 feet from two and they walk the streets...the death beads are a bit daunting to hear about. Given that suicide is at a all time high..Yes the right to die should be considered in some cases..we are not guaranteed of that option but too much...
Hello Julian I couldn't stop listening to you because your match so much with mine. I do a lot of pickling, canning, vinegars and dehydrating herbs, fruits and vegetables. I forage too. I also love being in the open, in a wooden house, eat plenty of available fruits and vegetables like the birds. Although I've been office based most of my life but I've always had that crave of being in the wild. Well, as I'm from a very small island called Mauritius there's not so many so-called wild here. But I love the mountains, rivers and nature. I never thought of coming across someone like you, such an inspiration and charming fellow you are indeed. I really appreciate and enjoy listening to you. Keep the good work going and stay safe.
Asha from Mauritius
I salute your courage and bravery. Have never seen a true sage like you.
A modern day Thoreau... Such a beautiful life. I hope you are always able to live in your beautiful little abode. Sending love and light to you.
I'd be interested in knowing what you do in the winter months when you can't live in this place.
I have come a long way, now living as I do in a cabin (in a pretty cold-winter part of Canada) without running water or indoor plumbing, using an outhouse that came with it, and with much of my belongings coming from the 2 "Re-Use" centres in my area - volunteer-run places at the local dump sites where we can leave useful things for others to pick up free, or forage for things we need. It is quite a lovely syatem that keeps so much out of the landfills. I see where I can live even more simply, something I would like to do. I do grow some of my own food. Thanks for the inspiration!
I have been smiling off and on so big throughout your video. Thank you for sharing your life with us - so inspiring:)
This is one of the most inspiring videos on off grid living. Thank you for sharing your views.
I gotta say, at first I didn’t know what to think about the death beans… but as I reached the part where you said you composted your birth certificate and social security card, it made sense. You set up your life so that nothing can control you, even frailty and sickness.. yet you seem radiant and at peace with the world like nobody else. With such passion in your voice.. your eyes.. I feel inspired.. and maybe a bit in love from seeing such a brave man🙈 sitting in my apartment accumulating my commercially produced possessions… I am learning how to to impact less.. to connect more with mother Earth. Which is I guess how the algorithm found you for me in the first place. Thank you❤ best regards, Ruben, Norway
If he has no ID, does that mean he can vote?
I mean all the identity paper only has the meaning we place on them. I believe in reincarnation so. 🤗
I'd also like to add that it's a legal, fairly comfortable, extremely natural, and even a common practice at the end of life to voluntarily simply stop eating and drinking (other species do it all the time, but even humans do, often under hospice care). It takes about 10 days on average, depending on various conditions, of course, for dehydration to fully shut down a human body.
Many good ideas, but i see two things Missing. Art. ❤And God❤❤❤...
@@valerieadams3944 Some people like to experience art in the outside world, rather than take it into a private space. As for God/gods, there're no material objects needed to be connected to the creative forces of the universe. That's in your actions and intentions.
I am definitely interested in your rosary beans and your thoughts on death. Please share. Love you Robin.
Just found your channel. I love everything you do and everything you stand for. Keep up the great work Robin. You're an inspiration to what is possible when people live a life of service to others and to the Earth.
It is extreme way of life, no bank account, no savings, not sure if it is true, no birth certificate, but i love it. I love simple life, stress free, and care free.
But its not very realistic.... ;-)
@@manonvorstenbosch3445Monks, etc live this way of life so it can be accomplished with the right mindset.
“Most my possessions are jars.”
Thanks for this Robin. You may not be a millionaire, but you are one in a million. ✨✨✨
Your amazing. I think most of us think we need lots of “stuff” to fill our lives. Your video is inspiring and the amount of courage you have is incredible. I too, am downsizing now too selling most of my possessions to move to a smaller apartment with less possessions. Its a journey for all of us and each step brings me more freedom. My Best, S😊
Admirable acts of humanity.❤️🙏 God bless you more.
It takes a lot of strength and determination to live this way, you are so extraordinary!
No it doesn't, it is easier than you think. I have been real camping for years and it was super easy.
@@ladybird491how real is your camping compare to this man living in woods
No kidding be a family guy with 4 kids 3 dogs wife that's a hard life keeping them all fed and safe this takes no motivation just day to day.
Thanks for making me feel better about not having kids. I also recently decided to be single forever. However, I don't fit in and feel something is wrong with me, especially as a 40 year old woman. Every woman I know has settled and created families. My younger sister is even pregnant with her 4th child. Sometimes I wish I could just be like her and everyone else who's settled and procreated. However, seeing your lifestyle makes me feel less alone in my choices. I should even aim to be more like you. However, I don't have the same privileges and once I'm ready, I too would like to naturally return to the earth.

Hello Dear Friend,
You are not alone. Millions of like minded people are out there. I encourage you to seek them out.
My website is a plethora of resources.
www.robingreenfield.org/
Love,
Robin
Thank you so much of not having kids! There's 8 billion of us, we don't need any more! If only more people were like you, we wouldn't have global warming, species extinctions, etc.
For those who want children by having only 1 or 2 the population would decrease slowly, certainly not increase. Unfortunately we’re there is no birth control there is overpopulated and large families even though many would like to only have 1-3 children and focus their efforts on just those 1-3.
I'm 22 years old man and even though I'm still young, I don't plan to have children. I really think there are and there alway will be millions of us, who don't blindly follow the usual path. Plus economically having kids is insane if you are poor. I was raised in a poor family and know how tough it was. I wouldn't like my kids to go through the same experience... The society doesn't offer many opportunities for kids whose parents don't have money. Kindergardens, schools, medicine, clothes etc. - it all costs a lot of money and you need to work a looot to pay for that. These days it's not easy to sustain yourself, how are you going to raise kids? We can enjoy life without having children!
Wow, so many answers on the most urgent questions concerning everyday-life-stuff. Respect to you, Robert Greenfield and thanks for your being.
Deep, deep respect and appreciation for the person you are and the message you are spreading. It’s more than a way of living. You give meaning to life itself. And that of many others. Which is more than just inspirational, because you’re literally giving back to earth and humanity. You’re actually a Jezus of its kind.
You might not read this comment, however, that doesn’t mean that this isn’t of value. Sometimes just giving and not expecting things in exchange is good enough. I don’t expect anything, which makes life so much easier and more peaceful. No expectations, just living and loving. You’ve inspired me. Thank you 🙏🏼💚
What about bathing in the winter when the lake/water gets colder? 🥶
I'd like to learn more about your thoughts on death. It's really encouraging to see how you manage "without" so many things and still so healthy and active in the world.
Thanks for sharing!
Going where the weather suits your clothes. Good thing others believe in land ownership or he wouldn't have a place to stay or work the land.
Bathing simple jost fill a pot up hest the water. Use a cup to shower with. Did it all winter here due to broken pipes. Simple easy and clean
You certainly are “wired” differently then your average sleeping citizen .
That’s a good thing 👍
Kudos to you for living your life ,
your way.
We come to this earth to live authentically !
Most people are just unknowingly following a program , honestly , I am no different .
But I do see the program .
Society is so lost , & empty , without purpose & in a constant state of fear .
It’s so sad .
Your a joy to watch ,
Thank you for sharing your life’s journey ✨
I hope many see this video & become inspired ✨
Much love
Thank you for inspiration. So little to be found these days. Beauty of Spirit is so vital, but we live under this dark cloud. You are total sunshine.
I'm so glad to find you today. You are truly sovereign and an inspiration to me. I will take your message to heart and seek ways to serve the community using my own gifts in my own successful way. Thank you.
You are my superhero Robin! You are like the version of myself that I wish I had the guff to be. I am kind of getting there (at 4 years your senior), but I don't think I'll ever be able to completely free myself from everything like you have. I have been in a long-term relationship for 16 years, and though we both agree we want to live more off the land and simplify life, her idea of simplification and my own still differ a bit. I love my life too, but you always inspire me to do more. Thank you for everything you do.
If you watched this video, please don't commit suicide. We need you on this planet and you are a valuable human being, no matter what your life situation is. I care about you and your wellbeing. Thank you. ❤
What we chose to do with our lives is nobody's business but our own. It's selfish to think you would have a say in the life and situation of someone you don't know. I understand you think you are coming from a place of caring but you are way out of line.
@@jerbear7952 It is not just your own business if you commit suicide. It affects your parents, your brothers and sisters, your children and grandchildren and your friends in very profound ways. Their lives will never be the same and they will probably feel guilty for not understanding or preventing it. Sure, we are all responsible for what we do, but if someone is suffering from severe depression they will not see clearly because their whole life will seem black and this action might feel like the only way out in their darkest moment. They may need help and support from other people not to act on that impulse. Suicides can be triggered by reading or hearing about how to do it. That was the reason I wrote this comment: to possibly prevent a tragic death.
Sure, would like to hear more about the beans of death ☠️😀
You could find, or make, a gutter for that roof and be able to collect a lot more rainwater. Dark storage containers/tanks work best to discourage algae growth. You can get those 200L/53 gallon blue, food grade drums pretty cheap second hand, and you'd put some mesh on the top to stop bugs/mozzies getting in. Then the water would stay nice and clean.
they are plastic 😊
Thank you for sharing. You are very wise. I wish you peace joy, love and happiness ❤
Robin thank you for sharing this with us. So much good info here. You are an inspiration to show us about being ourselves is okay. This video has helped me. Thank you. Blessings to you my friend.
Hi Friend, Please be careful regarding your death beans. People suffering with mental illness or kids/adults looks into suicide, that could be horrific! I love your life style and Congratulation on all of the wonderful things you are doing and experiencing in life. Where are you going after NC for the winter months? Also, I'm curious about wild animals entering your home, especially at night when you're sleeping. Those bears and Bob Cats are not so nice! Please stay safe.
They will find a way regardless.
P.s. I would love to hear your thoughts on death. I sent this video to my mom before I got to the part where you mentioned the death beans. You seem like somebody who is greatly needed in our world. I understand you likely don’t intend on using them, but I would be curious why you would want them in the first place. Thanks for sharing.
Ditto! I was wondering what he meant too
I'm not him answering, but as I'm now 70 years old one tends to think about it more. So here is my opinion. I don't fear death,but possible pain envolved with dying. I don't fear death because I look at it not as an end,but as a beginning of eternity with God and his love for us. Anyone who is worried about death needs ti look into the very many NDE. Near death experiences. Though all are different, without any exceptions EVERYONE says how they all felt extreme love and none wished to come back.
Cancer alone can be an incredibly painful way to die. Having something to end your suffering sooner, is a smart thing to have on hand. ( We're often more humane to our pets than we are to ourselves; euthanasia.)
Yeah. I heard “death beans” and can straight to the comments 🤔
Me too
Been a fan for a very long time, I envy you my friend your living in a natural way, no distraction, no stress no hurrying.
An inspiration. So reflective, honest, such integrity. Thankyou for sharing yourself x
I'm impressed. Especially as you mentioned textiles which are one of the most exploitative and heavily polluting industries, and perhaps one of the most difficult for the average person to create their own. In a lot of self sufficiency and sustainable living vlogs I've seen, textiles are ignored and yet noone lives without them and they are usually always produced using industrial processes and fossil fuels. It would be educational and inspirational to see more people creating their own textiles from home grown plants so that others could learn. It's not an easy process but it's what our ancestors used to do! Thank you for sharing this video. I really enjoyed your cabin tour and all your thought processes behind what you do. You have come a long long way in reducing your consumerism of the earth's resources. Thank you for inspiring me bro.
You have to be careful with peppermint, as bears love peppermint. It attracts them. So if you are out camping or live in an area with bears, be careful with the use of peppermint.
There is no way I could or would live the same, but my hat is off to you for living what you believe is the best for you. Peace & be well.
Brilliant! 100% providing for your self with the smallest footprint. Beautiful, amazing and inspiring. Thanks
I am SO jealous! I would give anything to be younger (currently 74) and have the desire the that I have now for a simple, natural life. I so admire what you have done - good for you, your neighbors, and Mother Earth. I just wish I had come to this knowledge and desire earlier in my life. At this point, I can still become more conscious of the balance of life when it’s in tune with the earth. Every little bit helps . . . Bravo with what you’ve done. Again, I am SO jealous! (Thanks for sharing.)❤
It’s not too late for you. Or maybe this doesn’t need to be full time - just go out and breathe.
You had life to do it
An eye opening video for many, bravo to you Robin. Most of us have learned something vital and new about your Earth code ways - love it !
I watched the video till the end and feel super lucky to find your channel! Subscribed! I really love your perspective on living and will follow for more contents of you🌹
I live in almost the same geographic climate in NW Georgia. I lived in a camper on my land for 6 mos. and really enjoyed it. The only real issue is the humidity, you have to watch that depending on the materials you have in the home and what it is made of. I had to wrap my books in plastic. Really love your lifestyle! Good way to decompress... you are doing it so well! So much to learn in one video! I would have to wash my feet tho before I got into bed so I would have to wear shoes LOL.. i still harvest rainwater too.. I water my plants and use it for outdoor cleaning and rinsing. My cats kept everything rodent free. Even if you don't go to this extreme, we can all find ways to cut down our affect on the environment.
Do you have a book list video? I'd love to hear more about the books you find useful.
You are so inspirational. Every day I move closer to freedom. Thank you for living in your divine truth. Blessings
This is amazing . id love to live minimal once i have my own space someday. thankyou for sharing with us ! not everyone is able to step out of their comfort zone to live this way. got yourself a new subscriber, cheers from Singapore.
A video on the death beans would be great and helpful. I too live off the grid on the mountains in central Europe in a small very old stone house, I grow my food and don't go to any supermarket...I also live alone without family and don't plan to have any...I'm thinking when I get old I want to go and stay under a tree until I die...I invest heavily in my health through living without any toxins either through foods, personal products, clothes, house stuff, electricity or internet, etc...I eat the food I grow and ferment almost everything and I'm the healthiest and happiest I've ever been...my possessions are mainly jars, haha. Thank you for sharing your experience and beautiful life.💚🥰
In 2016 I hiked the Appalachian Trail, and really appreciated the community, trust, simplicity, and natural beauty that I experienced. Afterwards I had a hard time trying to incorporate those into my everyday life, and thought maybe it was too idealistic of a goal, until I discovered your youtube channel! Sometimes I doubt myself whenever I do something unconventional, something that nobody around me seems to be doing, but when I see your lifestyle I see that it can be done - not only can it be done, but I could even go more unconventional if I were to choose. It helps to have someone else to do unconventional things with, even though we don't actually know each other. I enjoy your videos about your lifestyle, and I enjoy watching "everything I own" videos on youtube, so I'm looking forward to watching!
PS: I am inspired by so many things! I have also realized that my worm bin that I have in my dorm room is supporting your message (I get to see the things I no longer want benefit other beings and the earth!)
PPS: inspired again!!
Yes. And such a positive role model. No anti-social vibes just deep conviction and commitment...
I am 55 years old and am almost done building my 198 s foot tiny house. I hope to get away from lights, LP gas and just live as you are living here. I live in a colder climate so have to deal with that. I have chronic health conditions and am hoping to retire in one year... it's a big challenge... but I appreciate your great videos. I am starting a food forest on my .69 acres in suburbia.
!
Wow super🎉
So fun, your tiny home is wonderful gift to yourself for retirement. Party🎉
Check out Dr. John and Mary McDougal, Dr. Neal Barnard.
You are truly an extraordinary being thank you for all you do and for the example you are setting for the world
You are so awesome! Thank you for everything you do and share! Absolute inspiration. You rock!! Keep up the good work.
Hey Robin,
You’ve inspired me to make so many changes in my life. To start a veggie garden (which we eat from year round), to go foraging (which we also eat from year round), to minimize, to live more outside, to reduce waste, to compost, the list goes on…
And you keep inspiring me! 😁
I really enjoyed the update on you life and your frequent uploads!
I would be really interested in the video on the berries! 💀
I was wondering, how do you wash you clothes and bedding?
And do you plan on staying within the US borders for the rest of your life? (since you got rid of your personal documents..)
Thank you for shining your light on so many important topics, in such a beautiful, joyful and loving way 💚
Sending a big hug your way! 😊
Hello Dear Friend!
Awww, I am so happy to hear this. I am here with you breaking free and connecting more deeply one step at a time.
I often wash by hand with water from a natural source. When I am traveling I do often use washing machines.
I may stay in the US for the rest of my life. I may travel internationally without an ID. I may get a passport once again. Time will answer this for me and for you.
Sending love,
Robin
@@Robin.Greenfield thank you so much for answering Robin! I really appreciate it! 😁
Without any firm of identification, he would not be able to physically leave the United States.
Your way of living on earth is by far the best and normal way to live. Simplistic, clean, and pure. Remain blessed
Oh you are so awesome Mr. Greenfield!! I respect the views and lifestyle choices that you are so selfless in being committed to. I have been having this urgency to take steps in reducing my carbon footprint and to truly live a less complex and but more meaningful lifestyle ...community. It is said that ' nothing in life happens by accident, situations are either a blessing or a lesson'. So by coming across your channel I can honestly say it brought me both...and I am so grateful. Though moving forward will be baby steps, they are also willful intentions. Blessings.

I'd love a video on the death beans and your thoughts on death! I think it's really facinating that you have those beans and to be honest, it kind of makes sense to have control over the last day or so of your life when your body could potentially be moved
Robin, you are a huge inspiration. Thank you - I have watched your videos on/off through many years, and especially appreciate your views upon earthownership and government rules.
Also your non judgemental attitude 🙏
We can all do things a little bit different, to bring even small changes to Mother Earth and to humankind ❤
I wish you the best.
Receive my deepest respect.

Hello from rural România, i reckon that my family lives simply here on the hills, people visiting us oftenly say they cant believe how basic it is, but you, Robin, are on a different level, thank you for inspiration, all the best!
I love love love your lifestyle. Here in Australia you have inspired me to slowly let go where I can live with the basics and eventually very little.
Wonderful video Rob thankyou.
No fault in your lifestyle, it’s a great stewardship you have found on.
Thinking of others equally and above with your life is commendable. Thank you for the inspiration to dissect my own life to live more simply and more minimally, clutter is truly bondage! Letting go takes personal power back!
Whoa! I visited wild abundance a couple years ago and was blown away by the land and space. A friend of a friend was staying in a small off grid hut and it was truly impressive. Cool and wacky community (in a good way). I felt very welcome there
I enjoyed your video. Learned so much, how to live minimalistic! Great tips! I have always believe in helping others, because, it's what makes me happy. I agree with giving back and taking care of the Earth.
Thank you for being an Awesome Steward🥰
Would love to hear your thoughts on death and dying. Many people going off grid do not want to talk or even think of it. And most of all I respect your life sir
I love what you’re doing and support you. We don’t see eye to eye on everything but we don’t have to. Blessings to you
Wow. What an incredibly special person. I have learned from you today. Thank you for sharing YOU as you do.
Love all you've accomplished and the motivation behind it! Being new to your work, I began to wonder how you shelter in the winters. The simple life remains one I'm in the process of engaging. So, I'm compelled to learn how your community gather to stay warm in chill winds (I guess figuratively and literally). ;) Glad to see you out here in YT land!
Hey man you are a big inspiration for me. I have already built an earthbag house with my wife and we try to live as simple as possible for ourselves. Please keep it going what you are doing ;)
Well done Robin! You are a great example of simplification, disconnecting from 'the system', connecting to the Divine Energies and community, and being HAPPY with little. Maybe not for everyone, but it shows people that there are many things possible to reduce our footprint, connect and become more conscious and sovereign - and no ownership! Bless you!
Thanks so much my dear friend for all you share today and how you live more comfortable lifestyle, closer to nature
Hey Robin! Wow, I am and feel very inspired, encouraged and motivated by you, your video and your lifestyle, which really excites me into moving in a similar direction. Thank you!
Fascinating video and fascinating lifestyle. Every time I see one of these videos it makes me reflect on my own life and how I'm living it, and reminds me to keep things simple and not get caught up with the ideas around me that involve buying more. I will never have that super simple nature connected lifestyle, (it wouldn't really be do-able anyway in England, but also I now have severe ME), but I do still really like trying to make my life more in line with the natural world within my limitations. These videos are so inspiring.
I always did want to live more simply, but over the years I found myself getting distracted by how the world says you should live, let my pride get in the way where work was concerned (needing to prove myself following a career that made me unwell working so hard and not meeting my body's needs ) and allowed myself to get taken off my path a few times. It's nice to come back to this kind of video, to remind myself that I don't NEED all of that out there as my goal, that actually I'm very happy when I live more simply and focus on cooking good whole foods, and walking outside and being out there (when I was able), I don't need a fancy job with lots of money to be happy, neither do I need loads of stuff
This is beautiful. I appreciate your rawness with us. I resonate with so much of this and as I prepare to move for the 17th time in 13 years, I am minimizing my possessions. Unfortunately I rely upon a lot of my possessions to make a living (making vegan organic tamales, and farming no-till) but finding a balance that works for me.
Thank you beautiful brave soul for sharing your experience it was a pleasure watching and listening to you You are great example of how to live the life of simplicity with connection to the Earth sending you love and lights....
Having a little bit of land to grow your own food is really important and I do try that already and I made you a lot more gardening this coming year. Thanks so much my dear friend.
Also, I would love to know more about your thoughts and ideas on death. I have never liked the idea of being entombed (pardon the term) in wood, metal, concrete, etc. I have longed for the natural transition back to Mother Earth, and am fascinated by your “peas.” So . . . Yes, more about that, and more information about your reading materials. I suppose I’m not “too old” to implement some of these concepts. By the way, I’m thrilled to have found you!
You are an inspiration!! I completely understand why you have chosen to live this life. You're a beacon of integrity and of light in a world where we are encouraged to be self-centered, self-absorbed and where everything is about more, more, more. I can't stand it. Yes, you inspire me to be more courageous. Thank you and well done!!!!!
Glad I stumbled upon your channel. Wonderful! Feeling very inspired. Thank you.
I'd happily live out my days in that home with the lifestyle this man has to, I love the simplicity of it!👌
Absolutely wonderful! I'm step by step working towards this goal within my new 5 year plan to build this foundation of a minimal life to homestead eventually so as to live more independently off the grid.
Interesting to see the transition and adjustments over the years as someone who has been following you since the tiny, tiny 'house' in San Diego. Almost an evolution over the years
I am glad to be on this journey with you Dear Friend Brandon!
I do want to know more on those death beans...very interesting
I really needed to find this video
A bit of plastic won't kill you
If you're healthy you don't need deodorant
You said it all
Like when I talk to myself
From our relationship with electricity to how we should decay, even the step for the toilet
WHAT A GREAT LIFE
Wow, I simply love you! Thanks so much. I have a lot to learn, what a big exemple you are for me. ❤❤❤
You are a unique and special soul❣️ Your video is very well presented and brings enlightenment to many. I am 77 yrs old and constantly evolving...(as are we all). I thank you so much for your service to the many lives you have/will touch through your life choices. 🙏❤️🥰
Great summer home! Living your best life! 🌲🏠
I hope the winter has found you well. Thank you for sharing your life with the world. While most of your viewers probably can’t see themselves living within the parameters of your lifestyle, it must be recognized that your attention to the reality and details of your practices are both arresting of our social and spiritual blindness and mindless ways of existence. You are truly alive and you make me think more deeply about what I am doing with my life. ❤
WOW! This speaks volumes to me Robin. I have felt this way for years, but trapped in society. You have inspired me so much. I will be more conscious each day. I look forward to learning more .🌹
This is amazing how transparent you are, how open you share your thoughts and that is so refreshing and beautiful. I am amazed by your lifestyle and I tend to it too as much as I can where I live in France. I moved to the countryside two weeks ago, I buy in bulk as much as possible, natural food, use only raw products for face and hair, natural products to clean... But it has its limits, I cannot live EXCATLY like I would love to, but slowly I learn, test and now I'm reducing my clothes by buying good quality, simple and less worse for the planet !
Thank you for what you share, I've been following you since years now and I really loved this video.
Hello Dear Friend Sara,
I am here on this journey of living closer to Earth with you. I am elated to hear of your positive steps forward.
Love,
Robin
