What are things you've quit to help simplify and slow down in life? ☀
I'm still decluttering but I feel better everyday because of it.
Yes! It is crazy how much decluttering can affect your whole life! So glad it has been a positive process for you and you are feeling better because of it! 🤍
I stopped having a morning routine too. When I didn’t accomplish everything on my morning list I felt like a failure then the whole day felt that way. When I stopped trying so hard the rhythm just fell into place. I still have certain things I want to do ever morning that just make my life better but they don’t have to be done in any certain time frame or order. This just works so much better for me. I guess in essence there is no pressure or expectations.
Yes exactly! Just taking off the pressure and strictness and allowing myself to enjoy the mornings and still be able to get things done. 🤍 That change has made all the difference for me and so glad I'm not the only one! 😊
One thing that helped me is... less is better and people won't notice my nice things if there is too much.they will be like....what?
So true! I've learned that other people don't really care haha, so it's silly for me to base the decisions in my life around my worries of wat they will think.
Great ideas! I'm in a season of life with a lot of uncertainty and challenge. I've found out that going slower has really helped me. I've given up many of the things you mentioned. This means more time outside in nature, more time between commitments for daydreaming, more time taking care of my space and my body, more time soaking up on beauty and calm, more time connecting with loved ones, more time learning from others. It's a radical act to live slowly in a world that wants you to speed up 🐌
So glad you have been able to slow down and spend the time and energy on things you love! It's so true that living this slower more intentional way is radically different when the rest of the world is saying to constantly be doing more all the time 😓 Love that you are taking that time to be in nature, see loved ones, and take care of yourself! I working on continuing to find ways to do more of that in my life each day too, especially being outside! The more time I spend outside in nature the better I feel! 🤍
Omg yes, I just finished the in the Flo book. I wish I would have read it earlier in life, why has no one taught us this information?! Life changing
I know right?! Wish I had been able to learn all this years ago, but so glad I found it now and can't believe what a difference it makes! 🤍
One thing that I have quit is hobbies. I have a tendency to start projects and never finish them or spend money on supplies for a project and never complete it. I have even tried to start new hobbies and just not enjoyed them as much as I thought I would. Between work and family and what I’d like to do in my free time, I have found myself happier and less stressed without the added work of a hobby. Plus it has helped my wallet, since I’m no longer wasting money on unnecessary crafts and projects.
That said, there’s nothing wrong with hobbies but in this season of my life, I am better off without them.
That's such a great idea! I definitely am glad I gave up my scrapbooking hobby a while ago. I wasn't really into it any more and it took up so much space, time, and money. I still enjoy trying out new hobbies every now and then, but I feel like I know myself better now and can tell if it's something worth the space, time, and money and if not moving on keeps things much simpler. Like you said, it's all about the season of life and everyone knows their life and what the need best 😊
I love the Javy idea. Been looking for something different than what I had been doing for years. Looking to condense too many counter machinery. Glad I watched.
Yeah it's been so nice and easy! Love how simple and quick it is and don't need any coffee machinery stuff 😊☕️ Let me know if you give it a try and what you think!
Hi! I adore your content, just found it! Your energy is so friendly and calm, that makes me stay here and be a part of your "community".
I would love to see your monthly progress and updates with no buy!
Have a stress free weekend with your family❤
Sending love from, Belgrade, Serbia ❤❤🍀🍀🍀
Aww thanks so much, that's so sweet! 🤍 So excited to have you here! 😊 Yes I need to do an update on the no buy year and am planning to do a video on that soon!
@@SamanthaRae. You're welcome!
Can't wait for seeing your journey here🌿💛💛
What I've done different is throw things in trash that I want as if I don't I keep taking out of donation box. Spending money on family friends and my dog instead of myself.like a friend was having hard times so I gave up buying for me and helped her.
That's a great idea, thanks for the recommendation! 🤍
I love this video! 🥰 I’m so glad I found it. Thanks for the book recommendations. I am going to check out in the In The Flo! I need to think about what I’d like to give up. Your lessons really inspired me. Thank you! ❤
Aww thanks so much! 🤍 So glad you enjoyed it and hope this video can help people learn from all the mistakes I've made lol! Yeah In The Flo is so good! Wish I had learned all that about my hormones, cycle, and health years ago!
I love this! I lve been giving myself permission for down time. 😊
Yes! I used to always feel guilty for down time or enjoying life since i felt like I should be working or productive every single minute. But it feels so good to prioritize that time for life outside of work, and I've learned it so much more important to me than work stuff! 😊 Cheers to guilt free down time! 🤍
@@SamanthaRae. YES! Enjoy time outside of work. Work takes up so much time. Plus, the other things that we have to do with life!
@@teacherlovesbeauty so true! Trying to make life outside work a priority rather than an afterthought 💛
i really love listening to you, love from the Philippines:)
Thanks so much for watching and reaching out! 😊
Thank you for sharing! ❤
Thanks so much for checking out the video! 🤍
Agree. Could not live with stricked morning routines eitherm
Yes exactly! Just taking off the pressure and strictness and allowing myself to enjoy the mornings and still be able to get things done. 🤍 That change has made all the difference for me and so glad I'm not the only one! 😊
Yes making everyone happy that's me yuk it drains me.also if they are negative it brings me down.i give my all to friends and they don't even meet me half way....
If you're making all the effort in the relationship, they don't have to do anything. It's not easy to make this adjustment tho. Keep working at it.
Yeah I know that feeling all too well, it is very draining and hurtful when you feel like you are the only one making the effort. It takes time, but I've learned to let some of those relationships go and focus on the ones where people are happy to invest the time and energy into it the same as me! 🤍
Totally agree! It's hard to work through that, but keep going and hope you can find the amazing relationships you deserve! 😊
That save looks yummy! I need to check it out.savy
Yeah it's super yummy and so easy! Works perfect for me since I don't have all the fancy coffee making equipment haha ☕️
What do you do for work, how did you get into it (:
I work in real estate and marketing with a team in Arizona. I had been doing that for years and when we moved to DC a few months ago for my husband's job, I transitioned to doing the job remotely. It's been a tricky transition, but figuring out how to make it work one day at a time 😊
Dear Samantha hello I am Surekha Galagoda from Sri Lanka. I am your new subscriber. Tc
Hi there, thanks so much for reaching out and thanks so much for subscribing! 😊
Sweet doggie
Haha thanks so much, Bruce says thank you too! 😊
Javy oops
Let me know if you try it out! 😊
Sucha good reminder to be focused on the right stuff, but you did get me with that no morning routine jump scare 😂
Haha yeah I figured that one was gonna be a little dicey lol! 😂 I always would be so inspired to do those crazy intense morning routines when I would see or hear about others doing it, but loving my slow and flexible mornings so much more! 🤍
