I struggle with it at night, when I'm home alone. I suffer from anxiety, panic attacks etc and to placate the feeling for loneliness and unsafety at night, I have to keep the tv or a video on, to hear people speaking. But there's nothing more beautiful than sitting outside during the day and listening to the birds chirping, the wind caressing things and faces...
Maybe at night try one of those abide youtube videos where someone is reciting scriptures to instrumental music. That would be sound ❤ that's edifying to the brain
I used to struggle with anxiety and depression. I just prayed for you. I found my healing by immersing myself in God's Word. Reading the Bible daily and believing it. Isaiah 26:3 was one I meditated on, for surely HE WILL keep you in perfect peace when you keep your mind on Him and not the troubling thoughts of this world. I sometimes fall asleep with an audio Bible app or Bible based RUclips video playing, so my mind is soaking in the Word throughout the night. May God keep you in His perfecr peace as you continue to grow in Him! ❤
@@LittleHouseOnTheMountainI did that for 3 years after losing my son. It’s the only way I could sleep. I still have something on but now they are different health talks followed by water sounds for 10 hours until I wake up.
I would say you can cast out all spirits that are bothering you …For example, first every morning, I would invite Holy Spirit into my house. I’ll tell him that you are so welcome here. Please come and stay and hold me tight in your arms and never let go. And then you can start casting out all the bad spirits the spirit of loneliness ,spirit of fear, anxiety, depression whatever you can name it, you can cast them out with the power of Jesus Christ name, and they will leave you. This is how I usually say it … I commend my heavenly angels to come down from heaven on earth, and with the power of Jesus Christ I cast out all the demons, the spirit of depression, anxiety, loneliness, poverty whatever you are going through,get them out of your life in Jesus name, and say it out loud that they have no room in you house ,in your mind and in your body and command them to leave and send them back to hell where they belong because they don’t belong in your life in Jesus name 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻 And ask Lord Jesus to pour out his blessing over your life ,over your family’s life whoever you love and bring so much prosperity , And health and happiness And say thank you before it’s happening with open arms receive his blessing before even it’s coming ✝️ Hallelujah Just to mention, they are two very dangerous spirits that you should always cast them out of your life. One of them is a spirit of Jezebel, the other one spirit of medusa.
I've been told multiple times that i was born in the wrong century. I can see myself living in a time where there is no electricity, ugly electric lines, no ugly gas wells coming up out of the ground, and no modern technology. I love the sounds of nature. I love cooking outside over a campfire, i love simplicity, to be rid of clutter, and I love living in a small cabin on the prairie with my family of 5. Homesteading, farming, tight family unity. Neighbors working together. I love where we are at in life, and call me crazy, but i dream of a life where there is no tv, no internet, no electricity. People call me crazy, i just laugh at them. I just keep praying for a earth healed of pollution and for man to stop destroying it.
Life can be overwhelming. I remember vividly the forest behind my house as a teenager many, many years ago. We had an underground spring that opened up at one particular spot in the deep woods. I'd sit on a natural bridge and watch,listen, random daydreaming . I'm 47, and im still longing for that stillness, peace I found in those woods.
When I am anxious or overwhelmed,I go for an outdoor walk and try to pick out the different bird calls,then how many kinds of flowers I can spot,etc.very grounding.
Realizing the older I get, the more I appreciate and embrace silence. Often, it’s the silence that allows me to be more aware of what is going on around me. I am so grateful and thankful Jesus meets me right where I’m at. In the silence, or in the midst of chaos, He is there. It’s much easier to hear Him in the quiet. You are right Lea, once you embrace the stillness, you become much more comfortable in it. ❤
I was a missionary in the Pacific Islands years ago; I used to lie for hours in the cool and listen to the waves crashing and the wind in the palm trees at night, and look up at the sky. It’s amazing how many stars there are when you are in a remote place far away from any city lights - so many shooting stars! Lea, there is a word for the nostalgia one can feel for a time or place you never knew - anemoia - I feel it, too, especially when I see pictures of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, my ancestral homeland, but sadly I have never been there.. Wishing you a blessed week, dear sister xx
LOVE this video! As a single lady, I live in a country setting, in an apartment complex on the top floor. It is so quiet and peaceful. I fine such peace in stillness. I especially love the mornings when I wake up to birds chirping. But I love the evenings, and nights listening to the natural sounds of nature in the rural country surroundings. I hear everything from crickets, to woodpeckers, to various birds chirping, to the sound of a cool breeze coming in the windows, the sound of leaves swaying on the trees, to the relaxing sounds of listening to rain fall. It's the little things like this...listening to my surroundings...that I find peace and joy in.
Your words were so spot on…we can’t hear because there is so much noise. We are to attached to devices. Everyone wants background noise when in their homes. Silence allows us to hear nature and to hear from God.
What a beautiful way to spend the early morning - on this channel! Looking out my window today, I realized what was missing - a bird feeder and a flowering plant! So, I ordered a two-prong shepherd's hook for both. Slow, intentional, and essential living are changing my life. Being on a wellness journey is also such an integral part of the experience. Then, with Christ at the center of it all, He makes an incredibly blessed road. The resources that you share are so helpful. Keep up the incredibly sweet and relaxing ways you illustrate living it out. Words are just words, but ACTIONS show proof. God bless you.
(Robs wife) Such a beautiful video❤ Your little homestead is looking great! I enjoy the sound of living water as well! I could sit for hours with my feet in a srteam or river and just listen and absorb all the beauty Yah has created. He feels closer and His voice clearer. 😊 Blessings and Shabbat Shalom❤ ❤❤❤
I've been waking up around five or six, with my windows open and birds singing. And I've had to learn to appreciate the morning, since I'm not a morning person my whole life. But there's such a deep and quiet wonderfulness in the mornings. And the other day I realized that the peacefulness of early morning is not disturbed at all by loud and joyful birdsong! No matter how loud, or energetic it is, the peace or morning is still there. This video made me think of it when you spoke about noise.
In Malaysia, we had used the stingless bees' propolis to help with Covid's symptoms. It helps to reduced the fever and also itchiness of the throat whether in drop form or spray. I don't know if it can help with your post-covid symptoms but maybe it's worth a try. Sending lotsa healing your way.
Praying for you dear sister 🙏 have you tried researching specific supplements or vitamins/minerals to help your immune system? I hope that can help you. May the Lord bless and heal you quickly ❤
Beautiful! Yes, the stars! My first time in Haiti, up a mountain, I saw all the stars! I was amazed at my Creator, and sad that it’s not something I can enjoy at home. A sight my sons will probably never see. Have a blessed day! 💕
Wow. I was in Haiti in 1982 ( and since then as well) and was awestruck by seeing the Milky Way…. We were in the mountains and no city lights or smog. Beautiful!!
Stood near a spring stream of running mountain water yesterday. Birds chirping and singing. Butterflies and fragrant Jasmine flowers abloom most everywhere. So good. Fresh and calming.
Love the dress on you Lea. I came to appreciate nature sounds a lot. Living in the city, I often put on a calm piano and rain sounds-youtube video in the background while praying or trying to calm down.. :)
Less is always more. I bet pa and ma Ingles would flip out if they were here now. How I long for peace and quiet in my world today. If only .... Stars? Haven't seen any in awhile. Too many lights here in town. Thank you Lea, as always, such a refreshing video
I stopped along side the road in the desert on a trip,, turned the car off , got out and just listened to the absolute silence. It was amazing,,so calming. My favorite water sound is the small waves that lap the shores of lake Michigan. I am lucky enough to live a block away from Lake Michigan, in Western Michigan,,, so beautiful. Thank you for you content.
I’ve just spent a week looking after grandchildren who live in a city and found the constant noise both inside and outside the house quite overwhelming. We live out in the country here in West Wales and it is so quiet here most of the time. I have come to value that so much I get older. It helped me enormously when I needed to heal after a period of depression some years ago and is now something I actively seek out. I totally understand your envy for times past and the quiet stillness described by Laura. I read those stories as a child and have gone back to them so many times over the years whenever life has become overwhelming.
I had one of those still days yesterday and I needed it so bad. its most of the time busy around my home with my son and grandkids but its so nice when i can just sit in true stillness sometimes ❤
Being a parent in today's world to young children...it is a battle between the world and our children. To just let them be bored, for them to enjoy the silence. Especially if they have friends that don't experience those things often if at all, children can feel as though they're missing out. But I try to talk to our kids about the importance of all this. Being in silence, being okay with boredom, just being present, helping the nervous system....all so beneficial to life in the long term. I 100% agree with you!
Your videos are always so restorative and inspiring. Thank you for encouraging us to come into a deeper and more meaningful life. God bless you and your precious home.
I am losing my sight slowly. I've known I would since I was young. But as it gets darker the more comfort I find in silence. Love your videos dear sister.
We live out in the country and I've always said the bush has a music of it's own, I much prefer the sounds of the bush to anything else. I struggle more and more with the hustle and bustle and noise of town, but it makes me appreciate our life here even more. It's coming into Winter now in Australia and I was watching our son working on his school work outside in the sunshine with our dog snoozing beside him and the birds singing, and I was reassured once again that this is good and right 🙏❤
I love how the books we read can instill inspiration for what we can learn and how we can live our lives in simple ways. Another beautiful video. Thanks for taking the time to record and edit your videos while inspiring us.
I struggle with this so much. I’m always listening to something (music, radio, RUclips, etc.). For the sake of my mental health and my family’s, this encourages me to start practicing embracing silence. A little at a time. If only I lived near trees and streams though which I’m Sure would help!!
Beautiful video, as always. This can be such a challenge for Mother’s at home with little ones always needing you. Sneaking away and having little pockets of time are essential to breathe, relax and refresh. ❤️
I agree about nature sounds Lea it is said that even if it’s not real it has the same effect on our nervous system. I used to always want background noise, now that I’m older I can live without it.
Imagine walking in the forest and bumping into the forest nymph that is Lea :) Someone at work told me it is important to allow a child to play alone in their rooms. I thought it was a bit weird, but lately my 5 year old girl has been playing in her room, with no noise, just her toys. I am amazed to see what creative play she comes up with when there is no noise and distractions, just playtime and thinking
It's so good because then they can be more comfortable being alone as adults and not needing to be always entertained. Thanks so much for stopping by ❤
Sounds like me as an only child. I liked my own company, I grew in creativity and imagination, I enjoyed the quiet and still do to this day. On my day off I enjoy a day out in nature by myself to hear myself think, away from the chaos and overstimulated around us most of the time. I need that time to reset. Even at work on lunch break I go to the park to walk and listen to birds and water. I need and crave that. Thank you for this video.
Your property is looking extra beautiful this year. Well done! Stillness/quiet is a hard one for me. I seem to go in spurts of being able to do it and it seems so silly to struggle with this! But I often think about it when reading the little house books with my children. It’s something I notice in them too.
As a young mother, I would frequently have background music on, but now, with seven busy children, I find that sometimes just the addition of even beautiful music is just too much! Having silence, even just while I do the dishes or fold laundry while the children are outside or out with Daddy, is a balm to my soul when life seems hectic.
Dear sister, when you sat and made lemonade I was to under the same sort of tree with the same type of leaves and I also weared a light blue dress like yours😊. And it is true, we should not give children entertainment all the time. It is mostly the screen who is the problem. They becomes an addiction to the brain.
Love all your videos and the time you spend meditating and sharing wise virtuous thoughts. On another topic your skin and hair is just beautiful. I recently started making my own non toxic serum, rosehip oil serum and then almond oil with lavender essential oils. I wasnt sure about makeup so I found a bee line that is non toxic. I didnt add vitamen e because Im not sure if it clogged my pores. I had it mixed in another homemade skin care from a teacher that stuff gave me knots from clogging my skin.
There is an art to being still. You must give yourself permission to do so. I tell people to just start with fifteen minutes. Soon, you will crave more. The amazing thing with this is that you will find after being still, you will be twice as productive.
It was so hard for me as child moving down south from up north because its so busy up there i would have such a hard time trying to fall asleep because it was so quiet.
Hi Lea, I'm sure you have addressed this before but I'm wondering where you find such lovely feminine clothes? Of course you look beautiful in everything but I really like your choice in clothing, and I don't see pretty clothes like yours when I'm shopping. Love to you 😊😊
I used to wish I’d been born in Anne of green gables time.specifically as her bff lol,or her,but then I think of not having hot showers or decent skincare products and BAM,praise god for the here and now lol…
Hello Lea, could you please recommend some books for my 11 year old, Books that are Godly, something like your reading now. nothing with violence, death, things like that. I've heard a glamps a few of your books, and they sound like books I would love to read to my children!! Thank you if you have time!
Please pray for Ella,Pastor Pete Garcias Daughter 9 years old,she was in a car accident! She is in serious condition in the hospital! I know there are alot of gods children watching this right now! Thank you! Amen!
I was very interested in what you had to say about silence. Unfortunately I had a hard time hearing you with the background music. It would have been so much better to just allow nature to be heard in the background. I don't know why you tubers feel the need for so much music. It's everywhere! I find it hard to shop because stores are the same. Blaring music everywhere! I say this in love my Sister. Your music choice is calm but often drowns out your words.

Wow. I was in Haiti in 1982 ( and since then as well) and was awestruck by seeing the Milky Way…. We were in the mountains and no city lights or smog. Beautiful!!
Stood near a spring stream of running mountain water yesterday. Birds chirping and singing. Butterflies and fragrant Jasmine flowers abloom most everywhere. So good. Fresh and calming.
Very peaceful. Also I appreciated the reminder to sit still... even to just start with one minute and build from there. God Bless You Always...
Love the dress on you Lea. I came to appreciate nature sounds a lot. Living in the city, I often put on a calm piano and rain sounds-youtube video in the background while praying or trying to calm down.. :)
Less is always more. I bet pa and ma Ingles would flip out if they were here now. How I long for peace and quiet in my world today. If only ....
Stars? Haven't seen any in awhile. Too many lights here in town.
Thank you Lea, as always, such a refreshing video
Good Morning ☕️☕️🌞🌅🌞✨️💞 So beautiful and peaceful ✨️🙏🏻 thanks you so much again 💜💜
I stopped along side the road in the desert on a trip,, turned the car off , got out and just listened to the absolute silence. It was amazing,,so calming. My favorite water sound is the small waves that lap the shores of lake Michigan. I am lucky enough to live a block away from Lake Michigan, in Western Michigan,,, so beautiful. Thank you for you content.
Beautiful the sound of silence 💙💙💙
I’ve just spent a week looking after grandchildren who live in a city and found the constant noise both inside and outside the house quite overwhelming. We live out in the country here in West Wales and it is so quiet here most of the time. I have come to value that so much I get older. It helped me enormously when I needed to heal after a period of depression some years ago and is now something I actively seek out.
I totally understand your envy for times past and the quiet stillness described by Laura. I read those stories as a child and have gone back to them so many times over the years whenever life has become overwhelming.
Beautiful video and an important message and reminder❤ thank you Lea❤
Your photography is stunning! I too long for the days of yesteryear. Thank you so much for your videos. I enjoy them so much!!
I had one of those still days yesterday and I needed it so bad. its most of the time busy around my home with my son and grandkids but its so nice when i can just sit in true stillness sometimes ❤
Thank you Lea for another beautiful video. Your property and home is beautiful so peaceful.🙏❤️
Being a parent in today's world to young children...it is a battle between the world and our children. To just let them be bored, for them to enjoy the silence. Especially if they have friends that don't experience those things often if at all, children can feel as though they're missing out. But I try to talk to our kids about the importance of all this. Being in silence, being okay with boredom, just being present, helping the nervous system....all so beneficial to life in the long term. I 100% agree with you!
This❤
I love your content, Lea! God bless!
Thank you so much 🌻
I love that ' to distinguish between sound and noise'. It touched me.
Thank you so much Lea❤ Your videos are peaceful and comforting. God bless you my sister🙏
Your videos are always so restorative and inspiring. Thank you for encouraging us to come into a deeper and more meaningful life. God bless you and your precious home.
Beautiful video and yes the in the stillness is joy unspeakable
I am losing my sight slowly. I've known I would since I was young. But as it gets darker the more comfort I find in silence. Love your videos dear sister.
We live out in the country and I've always said the bush has a music of it's own, I much prefer the sounds of the bush to anything else. I struggle more and more with the hustle and bustle and noise of town, but it makes me appreciate our life here even more. It's coming into Winter now in Australia and I was watching our son working on his school work outside in the sunshine with our dog snoozing beside him and the birds singing, and I was reassured once again that this is good and right 🙏❤
Such a soothing and beautiful setting..thank you Lea for your words of wisdom!!
I would love to live in such a haven.
Beautiful 💜 Thank You Lea
I just started reading By the shores of Silver Lake with my boys!
❤️Thanks so much for this lovely video and gentle encouragement to press in! I needed this today dear sister Lea 🥰🙏🏻❤️❌⭕️🤗
I love how the books we read can instill inspiration for what we can learn and how we can live our lives in simple ways.
Another beautiful video. Thanks for taking the time to record and edit your videos while inspiring us.
I have struggled with misophonia since I was a child, so silence is welcomed. ❤
In the stillness is where I hear the Lord. The best experience. 💯
I struggle with this so much. I’m always listening to something (music, radio, RUclips, etc.). For the sake of my mental health and my family’s, this encourages me to start practicing embracing silence. A little at a time. If only I lived near trees and streams though which I’m Sure would help!!
May I ask what journal/notebook you are using? As always, thank you for your sweet genuine spirit. Blessings.
❤❤❤
Beautiful video, as always. This can be such a challenge for Mother’s at home with little ones always needing you. Sneaking away and having little pockets of time are essential to breathe, relax and refresh. ❤️
I remember that night in Vermont and recall it often. We even saw a shooting star. The heavens declare the glory of God. Much love. Papa.
I agree about nature sounds Lea it is said that even if it’s not real it has the same effect on our nervous system. I used to always want background noise, now that I’m older I can live without it.
This is what I love stillness. 💯
Beautiful 🤍🪔
Imagine walking in the forest and bumping into the forest nymph that is Lea :) Someone at work told me it is important to allow a child to play alone in their rooms. I thought it was a bit weird, but lately my 5 year old girl has been playing in her room, with no noise, just her toys. I am amazed to see what creative play she comes up with when there is no noise and distractions, just playtime and thinking
It's so good because then they can be more comfortable being alone as adults and not needing to be always entertained. Thanks so much for stopping by ❤
Sounds like me as an only child. I liked my own company, I grew in creativity and imagination, I enjoyed the quiet and still do to this day. On my day off I enjoy a day out in nature by myself to hear myself think, away from the chaos and overstimulated around us most of the time. I need that time to reset. Even at work on lunch break I go to the park to walk and listen to birds and water. I need and crave that. Thank you for this video.
Yes! 100% agree with you
Your property is looking extra beautiful this year. Well done! Stillness/quiet is a hard one for me. I seem to go in spurts of being able to do it and it seems so silly to struggle with this! But I often think about it when reading the little house books with my children. It’s something I notice in them too.
This can be a hard one for me since I'm alone a lot. But it is such a good practice in being still and listening.
As a young mother, I would frequently have background music on, but now, with seven busy children, I find that sometimes just the addition of even beautiful music is just too much! Having silence, even just while I do the dishes or fold laundry while the children are outside or out with Daddy, is a balm to my soul when life seems hectic.
Dear sister, when you sat and made lemonade I was to under the same sort of tree with the same type of leaves and I also weared a light blue dress like yours😊. And it is true, we should not give children entertainment all the time. It is mostly the screen who is the problem. They becomes an addiction to the brain.
Great message. I'm going to start practicing with 1 minute of silence and work up from there.
Yes! That's exactly how I did it
Good point.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love all your videos and the time you spend meditating and sharing wise virtuous thoughts. On another topic your skin and hair is just beautiful. I recently started making my own non toxic serum, rosehip oil serum and then almond oil with lavender essential oils. I wasnt sure about makeup so I found a bee line that is non toxic. I didnt add vitamen e because Im not sure if it clogged my pores. I had it mixed in another homemade skin care from a teacher that stuff gave me knots from clogging my skin.
There is an art to being still. You must give yourself permission to do so. I tell people to just start with fifteen minutes. Soon, you will crave more. The amazing thing with this is that you will find after being still, you will be twice as productive.
❤❤❤
It was so hard for me as child moving down south from up north because its so busy up there i would have such a hard time trying to fall asleep because it was so quiet.
Hi Lea, I'm sure you have addressed this before but I'm wondering where you find such lovely feminine clothes? Of course you look beautiful in everything but I really like your choice in clothing, and I don't see pretty clothes like yours when I'm shopping. Love to you 😊😊
Beautiful video 📹 😅😅
Shabbat Shalom.love your channel .❤❤❤
I used to wish I’d been born in Anne of green gables time.specifically as her bff lol,or her,but then I think of not having hot showers or decent skincare products and BAM,praise god for the here and now lol…
But oh my! To walk the roads of avonlea when they were red and surrounded by the goldenrod
Or to stroll the lush meadows collecting wild flowers for the pitcher on the old farm table….💕
Our daughter’s name is Avonlea. ❤️
@@mountaingirl8124that's so beautiful 😍
@@susanzumback7711oh yes 🌻😍
Stillness??? What? What’s that? I definitely need to find out…😝
Looking forward to it
❤❤❤❤I love your videos.
I appreciate that so much 💙
❤
How I struggle with this!!! I'm 13 months unemployed (my choice) and the need to stay busy is still with me. I do not know how to just be still 😢
Hello Lea, could you please recommend some books for my 11 year old, Books that are Godly, something like your reading now. nothing with violence, death, things like that. I've heard a glamps a few of your books, and they sound like books I would love to read to my children!! Thank you if you have time!
How do you keep the chicken coop from staying muddy during wet seasons?
I love seeing you return to the old Lea
I'm feeling more and more new as time goes on. More and more grounded and at peace.
It shows and looks beautiful on you
❤
Like your silver (?) nails
Please pray for Ella,Pastor Pete Garcias Daughter 9 years old,she was in a car accident! She is in serious condition in the hospital! I know there are alot of gods children watching this right now! Thank you! Amen!

@@heikebell3311 that makes me so happy to hear! Praise God! ❤️
Μα γιατί δεν έχει ελληνική μετάφραση;
I was very interested in what you had to say about silence. Unfortunately I had a hard time hearing you with the background music. It would have been so much better to just allow nature to be heard in the background. I don't know why you tubers feel the need for so much music. It's everywhere! I find it hard to shop because stores are the same. Blaring music everywhere! I say this in love my Sister. Your music choice is calm but often drowns out your words.
I really like to send you a private message to Ask is this possible 🙏💖
