Let me know some habits that have helped simplify your life! ❤
No area rugs. (one more thing to vacuum).
I really like how you describe yourself as minimialist-ish, as I've always found anything (even a good thing) taken too far to the extreme ends up being unhealthy. Your videos are inspiring to me!!
Yes! It’s the chilled out balance I was looking for ❤ extremes were too…extreme for me haha I think for many!
I love “don’t put it down, put it away”. That would help me with a lot of my mess/clutter challenges.
Yes on buying clothes that make you buy other things for it to work. I've purchased a sleeveless sun dress but then I needed specific underclothes and a coverup sweater to go over it.
Everyone took the “Spark joy” rule from Marie Condo but the “Every item needs a home” rule is a 1000 times better!
Hi, Christina!In 2020 I decluttered my house (got rid of around 60% of my stuff: clothes, kitchen utensils, toys, kids books etc.) and know I`m trying to build a sensible collection of shoes and clothes. So don`t stop teaching me, keep on! Best wishes from Warsaw, Poland🙂
I already do most of these. I have always been a bit of a neat freak, so everything has a place and it always goes there, just makes life easy. I am also minimalist-ish. I like to keep things that I use on the regular, and get rid of things that just seem to occupy space. But I love your tip about buying clothes that don't need other clothes to work. Great thing to keep in mind when I go shopping! THanks!
I've been watching your videos for at least a year. I don't know that I've ever commented before. I am consistently inspired by yours and Alyssa's videos to minimize, although I realize extreme minimalist (or even minimalist) is not my style aesthetic. Like you say, "you do you". Nonetheless, they are still inspiring! I live in an old home with very little closet space and I can quickly cram them full. One-in, one-out rule helps a lot, as well as managing money, knowing my colors or aesthetic, and delaying gratification! Such a good one.
I’ve started to focusing on surrounding myself with only things that I love or noticeably improve my life.
Try number 6 the other way round “pne out, one in” this means that you can sometimes delay or not even buy the replacement. Great tips as always Love Lesley England x
That's clever
I do this and love it! I think it's easier to be less wasteful and impulsive if I don't buy something until it's needed to replace an item I have that is wearing out.
Always helpful and relevant. I like how you don't make "you need these items" videos but do the opposite. Since getting ideas from you, I only wear what I am comfortable in even to events and enjoy things a lot more!
Yayyyy thank you for noticing ❤️
The wishlist is magical. When buying feels like "collecting" sometimes adding to wishlist gives you the satisfaction already. You realize you are using the shop as if it was pinterest or smt.
Rather than delayed gratification, I believe in greed - I take time to consider all the aspects of an item because I want the best item for my life, which often means not the item at all.
The best habit I adopted to keep my life streamlined is to maintain a combo calendar/journal. It’s one place to keep my appointments, to-do lists, notes, etc. Its not large and not overwhelming, but helps me keeps my day to day life running smoothly. FYI for me the Hobonichi weeks mega is just perfect for this.
One thing I now pay more is jewelry. I love stacking dainty rings. I buy 14k with diamond ruby sapphire. They look quality and last much longer. No more throw-away inexpensive jewelry for me.
👍🏻Delay gratification... I just add it to the basket and leave it, after I dont really want it!😂
Great video. I have adopted your wish list and have mine on my phone. When I get asked what I’d like for bday or Xmas I can say what I would really love is……. And it’s in X shop 😂. My list changes and sometimes I delete it completely. It’s helped so much with my emotional and impulse buying. I recognise when I’m feeling low rather than buy a new top to cheer myself up. I have decluttered my whole house (a house of 6 inc 4 children). I don’t need stuff to live a happy life - I need people I love and experiences. ❤❤
When I buy something expensive I think about it for a while and almost never regret. When I buy something cheaper/quicker there's a much higher chance of regret!
Hi Christina, just found your channel today! I put on my workout clothes first thing every morning to make sure I get my workout in. I also keep a box on the go to pop stuff into to take to the thrift store. I'm in no way a minimalist (yet) but am working on living more simply and decluttering and managing fewer items. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love decluttering my tech. It started on a snowy weekend. Yesterday I decluttered Pinterest and I'm in the habit of throwing out unwanted emails right away so that's a big help. Thank you for this video.
Don't put it down, put it away... i love that!!! ❤😊
I really appreciate all the advice in this video! Each tip is so thoughtful and I’ll definitely try to apply a few of them to my life going forward. Thanks Christina! 😊
Hi Christina! Fellow pharmacist here! Just discovered your channel and definitely vibe with your values. Subscribed and looking forward to more of your content and binging your existing videos in the meantime 😅
Girl, this is my new favorite video from you. Dropping wisdom!
I just graduated from uni and have to move, so transition and packing up are making me realize I want to simplify to live the life I want to as an adult. I started a board on pinterest to try and narrow down what I want my home/wardrobe to actually look like so I can make mindful changes to reflect my vision--"minimalist-ish gothic-ish"😂. Plus it gives me ideas for how to use what I already have and have patience to wait for just the right thing (like a wishlist and vision board in one)
As always, wonderful ideas! I keep the one in-one our philosophy otherwise it can get out of control. Thanks for the constant inspiration Christina!
Excellent video. I actually utilize a lot of your tips. Well done.
I only found your channel recently and I am so happy I did. Your content is so relatable and realistic. Thank you!
Thanks Christina for those wonderful thoughts to consider those are great help for my decision making because I find it hard to decide if I'm going to be minimalist because I really love to shop a lot love your vlog!!!
Love the Jeff cameos
Thanks for your great video Christina! /Marie from Sweden
Really enjoyed these tips! Especially how accessible they are ❤
So many great tips! Thank you! 💖
This was awesome please keep the minimalist ideas coming! ❤
Hey Christina! 👋 Really enjoyed this video as usual. Not sure if you do this on purpose but THANK YOU for posting on a Sunday brunch schedule. 😅
Your vids popping up this time of the weekend with my coffee and reset for the upcoming week is always such great timing! ❤ ☕️ 🙏
I inevitably end up tidying my space, making notes for the week, and just feel a little calmer about jumping into Monday. You’re like my weekly reset buddy! 😊
Brilliant! Have a great week!
Where I live she pops up around midnight on a Sunday, so she's there waiting when I wake up Monday morning (along with a few other of my favourites). I have Mondays off so it works for me.
@@lilithowl ooh that sounds perfect. See, now there's multiple of us chiming in, we'll get some weight on the perfect posting time. 😁
Christina’s presentation is very nice. I don’t know whether she has stressed this point. Minimalists or simplicity doesn’t have any relation with cost. It only gets us a feeling of satisfaction by having the right things required by us. We don’t won’t to possess things in excess or not required by us.
Your videos have been very helpful and inspiring! Thanks for sharing! Ohhh. Somehow your voice calm me down and makes me feel peaceful…. Might be weird to say so but I appreciate you
Very helpful video! Thank you!
As soon as my kids are off to school I tidy and clean I'm definitely not a full blown minimalist but I love simplicity
I have a very high paying job, but I will keep handbags on my wishlist for up to two years to be sure. Whenever I impulse buy one, I always end up reselling it and regretting it. That’s actually one thing I love about the Hermes wishlist, it forces you to wait and allows room to think and switch while you wait, so you’re buying what you love and at those prices you should buy what you absolutely love.
Anothet great vidoe. Thanks, Christina!
Just now seeing this, and thank you! I love these types of videos - ones with tips that feel practical and out of the norm From literally what everybody else is talking about on RUclips
thank you Christina🤗
I love this!!
High value content! Thanks
Great video love all the points so valid
Maybe the example of collecting Percious Moments Figurines is just one of your favorite examples, and you just proved one of your points 💞(#11 about knowing your favorites - which by the way is a great point) 👏
some good advice most of which I follow especially one in one out and wish add to the wish list saved so much money
You’re awesome, Christina 💐
I like to think I'm also a minimalist-ish 😅 My only issue is finding good clothes that last, I find that even more expensive stuff don't necessarily last longer...
Trueee especially these days I feel like quality is harder to come by unless you buy vintage! 😒
I used to work as a holistic nutritionist at Main Drug mart selling supplements and consulting. I have experienced minimalism while living in P.E.I. in a cabin off grid.
I love how you emphasise putting things on your wish list. I don’t know why, but when I put things on a wish list, even if it’s for something that I really want , it magically makes me not want the item any more. It’s like what you mentioned in one of your previous videos. How sometimes we feel like buying things because it makes us feel productive.
It’s like putting the item on your wish. List gives you that same feeling of being productive and having accomplished something.
Thank you, Christina! Very helpful video, likewise I do follow most of the rules/advices you share. ❤ You got me with the 3 things - clothes, food and fitness, very cute.😊 Me, I wish I was a minimalist, but dang I love my clothes/shoes/etc. so I kinda struggle with the 1 in 1 out rule. Anyway, from time to time I evaluate all things I no longer use/or like and post them to be sold in an app for such pieces/things. And I do this not only with clothes, footwear, etc., but home stuff, electronics, perfumes, you name it. This way I get some money back, save space, declutter and make someone else happy finding their new desired piece. I will keep an eye on your channel moving forward. Thanks and hugs from Bulgaria! 🌹😊🌹
Love these videos❤❤
So glad! ❤
Thank your for your help ❤
thanks for sharing your experience in minimalism .
❤❤
CM making my Sunday better ❤
Your comments making my Sunday better ❤❤
Loves this video!
I never worry about style I just throw on my clothes and hope it looks good most of the time it looks good
I enjoyed listening to you!! I'm a new subscriber! ❤
I really enjoy your balanced approach. It's been helpful to me. One thing I have to point out; the science on clutter and mental state is mixed. Although there is a positive correlation with clutter and depression, there is also a positive correlation with clutter and creativity. And I don't think there has been any scientific proof that there is causation either way. That being said, I don't like clutter myself and try to follow your tips!
this is very helpful 🤍
I do the Delay Gratification list too (when the purchase is above a certain amount), but with a longer time frame, usually a month. Turns out that when a month has gone by I usually don'r really want the item anymore.
I guess the buy extra pieces rule to make a piece work is a very good way to really think if you actually want it. If a style of top needs a new style of bra I need to think if I will wear this style very often and if the bra would be helpful for other outfits. Ive also found having a table mat to define the size of the dumping space I alway put stuff there so it quick to see when I’m leaving this room and when if full I need to remove the stuff and I only put transient items there (cup to go down stairs, paper to sort )
I love your wardrobe, so chic😊
Very useful video👍👍
very good video !!
I am definitely not a minimalist, but I want to optimize what I have to be things I actually like or to be things that are useful, which still does diminish a good amount of things I own.
I have been living with the one in one out method regarding my makeup and skincare collection. I only have four skincare products in total and 19 pieces of makeup in total. I'm still working on optimizing my makeup collection, my looks don't require lots of products to achieve and I don't wear foundation or contour, so I can get away with having a smaller collection.
I cannot approach clothing the same way at the moment. I recently did a big clean out of things I haven't worn in years and that were impractical and I'm still in the process of making sure I have all I need for work. I do have my favorite stores that I know fit my body type and my personal style, so it's easier for me to shop if needed. I also know what fits me well, what doesn't and what types of colors I want to wear. My closet right now is very eclectic, but I can wear 3/4 of it to work.
Thankyou.
I need to remind myself not to buy for my fantasy self. I'm a mother to three children 3 months to five years. It's appropriate for me to buy and dress as a mother who doesn't have a lot of time for long skincare and makeup routines
Christina I love your Jewellery so so much you are my inspiration and I wish you reach 200K Subscribers very very soon!💫😇💓
Thank you Mansoor! Happy Sunday! ❤
@@Christinamychas wishing you also happy Sunday 💕
hey queen we need that top 10 Simpsons episode list/vid :)
Omgggg great idea!
hi there! i love your blazers. are they vintage? where do you tend to shop to find them? thanks :)
Could you pls share the brand of your tshirt ( especially white ) .... It looks amazing ...
This is pure genius. I recently read a book with a similar topic, and it was truly captivating. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
Great
Girl, I see you getting rid of those Everlane jeans and I am like "I want them!!"
There are apks that replicate social media but without adds. You realize how many of your "needs" are fabricated by adds. Even when using the legal version its good to stablish a no clicking adds rule.
Ah Chief Wiggum, so many memories
I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.
Any tips for how to gently guide a spouse’s clutter habits? I gave him a bowl on the kitchen snack bar area for his keys & wallet. It’s grown to an acre of clutter. It’s all I see. When I move things, he just moves them back to his liking
Where did you get those black cowboy boots? Thanks
Poshmark but the brand is boulet canada
Mantap
Hi Christina do you talk to people live?
Off topic but would love to know your favorite simpson moments 😊
Oof, those black boots @ 9:46 - where did they come from? 🧡
Poshmark! The brand is boulet canada ❤️
for someone with ADD, like myself, this list seems impossible 😔
As someone who has ADD, I can tell you that these tips truly work! I found that they actually help me to focus!
If it takes less than a minute, do it now!
Is this the Ukrainian symbol tattoo on the neck? 10:41
Can I get reply from you Christina
❤❤
@@Christinamychas thank you so much for replying my comment 🙂🙂
Translate ro.
I love your dainty jewellery, but those thick gold earrings and neck chain are not suiting your undertone. Sorry
Most of us don’t care about that. We come here for the content. I think her style is lovely. If she wears something that I don’t think works, I keep it to myself. It’s rude to comment about a complete stranger’s appearance. Do you do that to strangers you meet on the street?
Whenever I want to add a new habit, I try to integrate it with an existing routine. If I do it alongside a routine I already have then it’s more likely to stick. So, when I wanted to read more, I added reading to my existing nightly routine.
I used to do that but now I struggle to read. It works but just not in my case which is sad because by that time I am tired
@@Biancaleigh693 by read, I also mean audiobooks which tend to be easier when I am not able to focus on a book. Sometimes though it’s just not the right time to add in that habit and that’s okay too!
