      @@dr.christopherjohnson4178 did I give the impression that I'm not safe? If so how? I live in San Antonio Texas. I am a very conservative southern Baptist. I do not have male friends. It's inappropriate. All of my friends are female. I don't understand the concern. I must have said something really silly. By the way I do mind and my name is not Mary. I would never put my real name or private information on any digital platform. So much for honesty and trust. That is reserved for my family. I am a staunch REPUBLICAN. I loathe the use of emojis. There is something to be said about being straight forward and blunt.

    Two of the most impacting books I have ever read are 1) Boundaries by Cloud and Townsend. ( it is Christian based ) but I did not come from a Christian home and instead from a very traumatic childhood . This book taught me what boundaries actually are . I did not know what I did not know. Learning about boundaries has had the biggest impact on my life in every area but especially in relationships to others and myself. The second 2) favourite/ most helpful book is ‘The Grief Recovery Handbook’ by John James . I would not be alive today after my father died, if I did not have someone take me through this books guidance. I was so overcome with grief. It set me free from the heavy weight of grief and taught me how to go through it and process it fully so I could live again.

      I was really impressed by Boundaries. Readers can always skip over the references to scripture (which I guess are really helpful to those who equate being Christian and being a doormat) and you still get a superior explanation.

    How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk, plus Siblings Without Rivalry. These books were real eye-openers, modeling respectful communication skills that Id never witnessed before, while strengthening children's (or anyone, really!) trust in themselves. It showed me what it looks like to be curious about who each child was while helping them develop maturity- without being dictatorial, judgemental, or shaming.

I just got back from a trip yesterday - usually when all my good habits fall apart - and for the first time I'm feeling productive and finding joy in all the little things I'm doing, not frustration in the little ways my schedule isn't "normal."

Thanks for the recommendations - I am going to try Audible and listen to books while I garden! My children were subjected to trauma so I am very interested in the Deepest Well. One of the best books I’ve read is The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. I loved it so much that I bought two copies so I have one to lend out! 💗 One of the things I like best about you is your emotional vulnerability and empathy. 💗

    Aw, college pics! How nice.
    I have read several of these books (and will not comment on every book even though I am so descriptive and such).
    It is interesting how many minimalists love Marie Kondo despite her not being one. I think, in a way, she is a lot like one though.
    I read Atomic Habits recently because you recommended it, as did one other RUclipsr I watch. It was pretty good. As a certified life coach, I feel it went in line with a lot of the training I had gone through. It was a nice reminder.
    My mom and my one son are highly sensitive. I think I am sensitive and empathetic, but I don't know if I am highly sensitive. I have never read that book, but have looked into studies about it.
    I am actually surprised you get mean comments on your channel. I don't understand why people want to be mean to anyone though. My mouth opened wide in shock in reading just the few you showed on this video.
    I love when audiobooks are read by the author!
    Thank you for your list and explaining how they helped you as well. I am sorry for traumas you have gone through in the past and it is so good that you have been in a healing process. My mom tried to put her trauma onto me and it was really rough at times. Sometimes it still is. I might have to read that book. Thanks again.

    Thank you so much for sharing this list. I too am a highly sensitive introvert and I find it hard to explain myself to others, so I tend to just avoid people.

    A quote I recently heard from another Minimalist Tuber is:
    “If you want to Attain Knowledge: Add to your life.
    If you want to Attain Wisdom: Remove things from your life.”
    I am by no means a minimalist. It’s too plain for my colorful brain. But I definitely like the idea of less clutter.

    Okay I just got SO excited…I’ve watched a few of your videos before because I am a fellow minimalist & when you started talking in this video about not finding a job bc you didn’t want to work in a school or nursing home I was like “surely she’s not…” & then you said what is an SLP! Im an SLP too! Sooo amazing to be able to relate to a fellow SLP who is a minimalist as well! Im actually making a huge transition this coming year in my work to lessen my load & live more minimalistically (if that’s a word) with my occupation as well as my home life! So amazing to hear we have that in common ❤️

    I know an elderly person who owns a house that has a concrete basement, much like a bunker.
    You would think that he would have used that basement to store his doomsday food and water, or some gold and silver bullion bars.
    But no, he uses the basement to store his huge collection of 40,000 books collected over a period of 50 or more years.
    This person is now over 80 years of age, and he's still hanging onto all his books!

    Yes let's manifest - even for a retired 70 year old person. I love this topic and am looking forward to next weeks video. I have trouble reading then understanding or comprehend. Sadly I can't remember names of almost anything or anyone. I buy books, then have trouble letting go of them because I spent the money and didn't read the book. When walkman cassette or cd players were popular, I used them to learn about subjects or listen to music. I think audio books might be the way to go, even though I dislike paid subscriptions for 'entertainment'. I suppose it would be less expensive then buying books I don't read - or not buying books (cuz I know myself) and not educating myself. Thank you for taking time to expand our minds and hearts.

    Good morning from Australia… I’ve read many of these books. I love how you stress that Marie Kondo does not identify as a minimalist. And that decluttering and minimalism are not the same… I started with one and embraced the other… I knew you would enjoy Brene Browns work. I identify as a minimalist but I must read the book about essentialism…. My home is not empty but contains only that which ‘feeds’ me as a human.
