Thank you! I needed this. I stopped working at 62, it wasn’t by choice but I decided to make the best of it. I’m so at peace with my new lifestyle of retirement. This busy world we live in keeps trying to pull me back in but I’m fighting it will all I got. We decided to Downsize our home and our children are all grown. In the mornings I sit on my back porch and listen to nature….i don’t ever remember birds sounding so beautiful! Slowing down also gives me more time to speak with God. It’s the small things that matter to me now.
Same here, I didn't want to retire but it was forced on me. I even offered to take a 50% pay cut to keep my job. But now that I am retired I realize I wish I had done it sooner. I guess it had to be forced on me.
I've been focusing on a slower lifestyle since age 60, I'm 66 now. It has been a challenge at times, not to fall back into consumerism and the modern way of life. All of my friends and family still live in a world of wanting more and more. It is never enough. Like a drug, the more they buy the more they want. Yes, I do feel like an outcast at times, but the rewards are worth it. This video is spot on for me. Great advice indeed!!
@@jscott4431 I’ve joined this movement as well ! I’ve often wondered why humans want so much more than they need? And at one time I was following the lead--recently I’ve went ballistic via decluttering in various & sundry ways! It feels good! Haa! And it’s easier to keep my home tidy!
I can imagine how challenging it must be to feel like an outcast at times, but your dedication to a more mindful way of living is inspiring. The rewards, as you said, are truly worth it. Keep staying true to your path
It's not even about age anymore. The time has come for all humans of all ages to reckon with the negative consequences of consumerism. Don't let your possessions possess you.
I just turned 69, i've recovered from last year's heart attack and last week was divorced from my wife who left me a week after I had my heart event. It's been a crazy 15 months but I now have a new freedom, and peace that I'm loving. Over the years I converted an old tin garage in my backyard into a Tuscan style cottage with a cottage garden with a lemon tree and an apple tree. Theres a hammock swinging between some antique turned verandah posts and lots of flowers and now vegetables growing in the sunshine within view of old rocking chairs and even an old two seater couch. I've made my transformed backyard into my personal 'slow life' mission. I collect cuttings from flower beds and friends and plant seeds then enjoy the happiness as my backyard glows with new growth and colours everywhere. I share this area with special friends, drinks and meals shared at the table that I made from a big wine barrel sitting on mis matched stools with colourful fabrics and crockery. So many eclectic things that I've collected through the years are now finding their place in this calming area. Music from Spotify played through hidden bluetooth speakers increase to positive atmosphere of this area. I'm scaling up my efforts to scale down my possessions. I want to reduce my car collection and use the funds to travel more whilst I still have excellent health. I retreat to my backyard that seems a world away from the suburb that is the other side of my fence extensions, and I feel like I'm in another world. A new life at peace can be in your own backyard, take time to smell the roses!
@@Robwarden This sounds wonderful! Due to circumstances I’m not able to travel with ease, so I’ve decided ti create something similar in my back yard--your descriptive post is encouraging that notion!
So sorry to hear she left you after your heart attack . My story is different , but similar as well . 33 years of marriage and she ran off with a Chad , a coworker of mine ! Took me to the cleaners in a divorce- rape . She was a stay at home and many years after our children grown and out of the house . Left me ( almost ) homeless . Sad . God replaced everything and then some ! I’m 64 and forced into a medical retirement not really financially prepared ; God is finding a way after many surgeries . Thanks for sharing . God Bless .
Same here. I have converted my balcony as well as empty corners of my house into small gardens. Complete with candles and bamboo chairs. The whole family loves them. Our best time is spent in our home gardens. We don't like going out much. We are stay at home people. Best of luck to you.
In my mid 50's and I've learned that the pleasures in life, the TRUE pleasures, come in the little things. We have been conditioned to want stuff, that stuff will make us happy. Happiness originates from within and 12 cars or houses will not fill that void. Take a walk in nature, look up at the stars, read a good book, listen to good music, take your time, exercise, meditate, feed the squirrels, shut off the news, help an elderly woman carry her packages, smile at someone as they pass you...and be happy.
I totally agree to you detailed comment.I am in my mid fifty and been made redundant from the rat race of work but I adjusted and evolved with change.Yes ,the economics of this capitalist society is challenging but frugality and simple living is the key to our survival and well bring
Having lost my job about a year ago, being 62, and realizing 62 year olds aren’t in such demand in the job market this a timely reminder of what’s important in life. Thanks for posting.
My husband and I have also learned that age discrimination is alive and well no matter the laws that are supposed to protect us from it. We hope you're doing well.
Supposedly bringing in younger people is bringing in new ideas. Older people are seen as stuffy and set in their ways. Some of these stuffy ideas include, reliability, trustworthiness and knowledge that comes from real and practical experience.
My phone is 5 years old and still works fine. My car is 22 years old and is simple and inexpensive to repair and run. I know capitalism is the best economic system (by far, no contest), but I am capitalism's worst nightmare because I only buy what I need, not what I want.
@@polygloticious Study history. All other systems have failed miserably. The only one that gives anyone with any level of drive a chance at their best possible life is Capitalism. We do not have pure Capitalism in the West. We have some bastardized version of it with a lot of socialism mixed in. If you are willing to work your ass off and you end up striking it rich, Capitalism allowed that to happen. If you are a socialist and you work your ass off and strike it rich, you must give away - you are forced to share what you earned with people who didn't earn it or work for it. With Capitalism, if you want to give away your hard earned money, you can but that is your choice, not the systems. Socialism destroys human ingenuity and drive. Capitalism promotes, supports and rewards it. Understand the difference?
at 50, I finally woke up and realized that I had wayyyyy to much of everything. I felt heavy and not happy with all of this stuff. I began my decluttering journey and its tough to do. When I get rid of stuff I feel light and much happier. I wish I had done this earlier on so I would have not had to deal with this crap. I did learn something in all of this and that is your possessions own you. Not the other way around.
At 58 I was diagnosed with primary progressive multiple sclerosis and needed to make major changes in my life. After moving to a smaller home that I had adapted for my needs I began to relive a life rich in experiences, reflection with a wonderful occupation that I had enjoyed throughout my adulthood before the diagnosis and has fortunately has carried over now at 67. I am living differently being disabled but simply put, happier.
At 73 same Proud of you and proud of me Used to come off quick vacation Fy Fishing Idaho with my entrepreneur buddy and we'd part saying... "Well, back to Fun!" :)
I can fully understand and relate to the pain of moving away but i think at 84 you have been there and done that..... And this pain will be temperory till one crossover to the other side.....
This was awesome. I loved the vision. I am 58 and quit with no plans in place. I just knew that I had to do what was best for my mental health. It paid well, but the environment was too toxic and bias. Yes, you can apply this to any age, however the message is to help us older folks to reset and refocus. I feel free and blessed that I can seek not just a job, but a position to serve. It's not lucrative when raising 6 children, but now I can revisit why I got my psychology degree in my 50s and work in an environment that is rewarding and building resources for the community, esp. for those that are 55 plus.
*It’s no longer about age. The time has come for people of all ages to reckon with the negative consequences of consumerism. Don’t let your possessions possess you*
Moved to the caribbean 1 year ago. Dont have a house but have a home . Dont have a car, but I get around. Also got a montain and ocean view from here, eating home grown coconut, banana, papaya, avocado, mango all the lovely food here. I got 2 flip flops and not 20 pairs of shoes like most woman in some places, but happier than most people❤❤❤❤
Thank you, I needed to hear this, and a lot of these comments helped me also. I'm 62. I just started slow living it's hard at times, but I felt so much better listening to this and reading the comments. Thank you so much 😢❤
I’ve downsized and moved from the city , I love the simplicity of my new life , yesterday I walked barefoot in the sand first time I’ve been to a beach since childhood. I’m now in my mid seventies, so much fun . Simplicity works for me 💕
Thanks I just turn 66 years old taking one day at a time .both my kids did well. I work 40 years just retired five years ago. Been through a gauntlet back-and-forth for 40 years. I realize this is the last chapter of my life. I called a journey and trying to enjoy each small moment and while I’m still healthy because it’s all gonna hit us sooner or later is appreciate each day as a gift from God I subscribe to your channel thank you.
Indeed 50 should be the start of the slowing down years.... mentally...... figuring out what and who are valuable to you...letting go of the old...and bringing in the new...a time to focus more on yourself and well being and your soul...a time to start the process of slowing down cause you can't just come to a screeching halt...slowing down takes time and many adjustments...be blessed
1... I am in 53 ,and I started thinking about minimalism and slow living,let me search little more and I am sure I will start without delaying much... thank you for your valuable video...
I totally believe and agree with these tips. I am 74. Taken early retirement . Spending time meaningfully and enjoying with nature travel and grandchildren. So far no health issues. Thank you
Four months away from 80 this is how I have lived my life for quite some time, I have few desires, I am still working at my profession but it is my art, it full fills me and keeps the mind active, I have financial freedom because I embraced simplicity a long time ago, it is a good life.
In my seaside area are numerous cafes, and I frequent one in particular numerous times each week, arriving before 8 am. I've made friends with a small table of similar age people. I don't really like coffee but have one to be social with the others. We have fun banter around the table, the staff are great and they know exactly what and how we like our coffees, its become like a social family gathering, and it only costs $4.50 each time i go but its a great start to each day. We all care about each other, its an emotion booster. I also volunteer with disabled people by taking them sailing in little boats down at the local yacht club, it's a definite feel good experience for all involved. The friendship between the volunteers is great and something we all look forward to each week. Maybe try these suggestions, best wishes, Robi
This creator is just copying other youtube creator content virtually word for word. By asking him to produce further content he'll just copy other people's hard work which is sad 😢
So true, I was always a minimalist.My Dad lead a life like that and taught me to be more thankful for what I have and not worry about what I don’t have. It’s so good to see such videos that have so much meaning and value. Thank you so much ❤❤
As I've reached 70 I've realised that less is more I no longer crave the new fashions or kitchen robots etc..This video sums up how I'm feeling now .consumerism is suffocating
This is exactly the mindset I need! Slowing down and enjoying life without the pressure to keep up with consumerism feels so freeing. Great reminder to focus on what truly matters!
Thank you so much. I am close to 70; still working. Not for the sake of padding up portfolio, but to keep my professional attachments. But, now I have a clarity.
Every piece of advice is a million dollars worth it. I am 64 now and have simplified my possessions and needs to a great extent so much so that I feel that 70% of my possessions were of little value or no value. I have slowed down the pace of my life resulting in more time for little wonders that nature offers. Felt connected with the contents of this video. Thanks for sharing valuable thoughts. ❤
Ty so much. I am 75 years old and have been downsizing for years. I am retired and enjoy my time alone. I read a lot and work on my sewing. I don't need nor want anymore stuff
I turned 60 and looked around and realized I had too many things I would never get to use anymore. I realized time is running out and letting go of things actually feels good.
Great stuff here. I quit consuming and am in the process of working thru the things that really light me up: family; a few close friends; my faith in God; health and exercise; volunteering to help those who need it; etc. I work part time, but notice work was NOT on my list. It's important but no longer drives the bus of my life.
Thank you sir for your valuable advices.I am 68.It will immensely benefit me by slowing my life now and consuming less.I find joy in reflecting on my life's journey and finding peace now in simplicity.🌷🙏
Living on a fixed income as a Senior, can be challenging. Everything mentioned in this video is true, especially living in keeping with one's values. Living frugally, to be able to help causes I feel passionate about is important to me, beceause it brings abundance and satisfaction in living mindfully and purposefully. All good tips to live by. Thank you!
At the age of 67…I have already embraced this concept of living…I started slowing my life down in my mid 50’s….buying things, having gadgets, fashion, hair upkeep for the sake of looking younger etc…When I settled into this way of being…a wonderful sense of calm came over my life, I no longer felt competitive. I started spending time in nature, enjoying my pets and my home life with my husband and our small little homestead….I thank God every day for the insight to let so many things that seemed important fade from my mind. And for the importance of love, comfort, frugal living to expand my years with joy and peace.. Over these past years we have experienced the loss of dearly beloved family members and best friends…with knowledge of the rhythm of life, and the cycle that takes and gives, there is always something to be grateful for. ❤️🙏🏼
100% I am with you. Fortunately I am living as you shared here, literally most of all you described. And I say, “You are absolutely right.” Thank you for your sharing!
This is EXACTLY what I needed to hear.. I loved to shop so much and the clutter i have now is crazy. This is the video I needed .. thank you so much. I’m going to change my life 🤗
Calming and reassuring messages which helped to make my Monday morning brighter and encouraged me to be more mindful as retirement approaches. Thank you ❤
ha, 5 coffee makers! totally required for retirement. Great job. Up till I retired I was buying so much stuff that I didn't need. Most of my time is spent fixing and maintaining stuff. Wish i had learned this before I retired.
I have been a minimalist since i lived on my first sailboat, back when i was 34 years old. I live in a large home at 71, but iam still a minimalist , a different sailboat now.
Thank you so much. I am working on this! It is the shift from buying whenever I see something I "need" that is still an area to work on. But I see I am making progress! Thank you!
Unfortunately, our capitalism is clouded by greed at all levels. You have managed to provide the perfect video which to me describes minimalism for seniors.
@@WiseAdvice93 this January my life took a 360 degree turn when I watched my mother fall n stop breathing for a few minutes. The present seemed all alive and the only thing which was important. I realised how much of time we had lost ruminating over the past and projecting a future which may never well come to pass. We were carrying burdens too heavy and unnecessary to carry. Still trying to find a way out. And yes, we had gathered enough unnecessary things and people who ultimately were there for themselves. Big time downsizing is necessary.So hopeful seeing your video.
In our 40s we simlified our accounts, bills, shopping (budget and track your spending) decluttered and organised our life. When it came to retiring/redundancy it made it sooo much easier to make the jump. You really wont regret it, we wish we had done it earlier.
Most people watching this . Will i am sure notice that time moves faster as we get older . It's now so important to relish that time we have left as it quickly goes by .
All good advice but reconnecting or strengthening our relationship with God is the most important for me. At the end, the enjoyment aspect becomes a vague memory, but God is now.
Excellent advice and suggestions. These must be followed in some form or another for all ages. I wonder , is there any reason why you haven't covered volunteering and spending our knowledge and experience for the benefit of the needy. Apart from seeing happiness on the face of others , it can keep us active and sharp - physically and mentally , not to be in the rat race , but yet keep occupied as per our convenience. Regards -

My Guru used to say that 'Peace is in contentment and not in abundance'. I really liked this video and truly wise words. Thank you.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
As I've reached 70 I've realised that less is more I no longer crave the new fashions or kitchen robots etc..This video sums up how I'm feeling now .consumerism is suffocating
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Very well structured presentation. You have covered the crux of the real life issues of Seniors
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
This is exactly the mindset I need! Slowing down and enjoying life without the pressure to keep up with consumerism feels so freeing. Great reminder to focus on what truly matters!

Now iam 57 already started following the advice you have spoken in this video 🙏
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Every piece of advice is a million dollars worth it. I am 64 now and have simplified my possessions and needs to a great extent so much so that I feel that 70% of my possessions were of little value or no value. I have slowed down the pace of my life resulting in more time for little wonders that nature offers. Felt connected with the contents of this video. Thanks for sharing valuable thoughts. ❤
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Iam 52 year old surgeon . Busy life . This talk is an eye opener for me ❤

Ty so much. I am 75 years old and have been downsizing for years. I am retired and enjoy my time alone. I read a lot and work on my sewing. I don't need nor want anymore stuff
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Yes sir 😅
thank you- i look forward to finding more inspiration and guidance on adjusting to the slower reduced lifestyle as i slip into retirement.
I turned 60 and looked around and realized I had too many things I would never get to use anymore. I realized time is running out and letting go of things actually feels good.

Great stuff here. I quit consuming and am in the process of working thru the things that really light me up: family; a few close friends; my faith in God; health and exercise; volunteering to help those who need it; etc. I work part time, but notice work was NOT on my list. It's important but no longer drives the bus of my life.
I'm 53 and finally living slow life. Took years of trying and finally doing it for good 😊
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
I'm fully on board. The slow life. You had me at slow (life), rather than a slow death.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Thank you sir for your valuable advices.I am 68.It will immensely benefit me by slowing my life now and consuming less.I find joy in reflecting on my life's journey and finding peace now in simplicity.🌷🙏

Living on a fixed income as a Senior, can be challenging. Everything mentioned in this video is true, especially living in keeping with one's values. Living frugally, to be able to help causes I feel passionate about is important to me, beceause it brings abundance and satisfaction in living mindfully and purposefully. All good tips to live by. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
Really very helpful to all who are struggling to control their finance. God bless.

v well said sir.. Thanks for sharing this
At the age of 67…I have already embraced this concept of living…I started slowing my life down in my mid 50’s….buying things, having gadgets, fashion, hair upkeep for the sake of looking younger etc…When I settled into this way of being…a wonderful sense of calm came over my life, I no longer felt competitive. I started spending time in nature, enjoying my pets and my home life with my husband and our small little homestead….I thank God every day for the insight to let so many things that seemed important fade from my mind. And for the importance of love, comfort, frugal living to expand my years with joy and peace.. Over these past years we have experienced the loss of dearly beloved family members and best friends…with knowledge of the rhythm of life, and the cycle that takes and gives, there is always something to be grateful for. ❤️🙏🏼

Absolutely right!
Thank you. This is my video that was stolen and made into AI.
I am a hoarder, trying to let go of my things and living a more simple life, which I think would bring more peace in mind...less anxiety and sadness
Thank you very much ❤️
ha, 5 coffee makers! totally required for retirement. Great job. Up till I retired I was buying so much stuff that I didn't need. Most of my time is spent fixing and maintaining stuff. Wish i had learned this before I retired.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
I love this. No matter who someone votes for, no matter what the outcome, this is an important message. Thank you. I'm rolling up my sleeves❤

I'll be 60 in November...slowing down slowly....but....surely!!!😊
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Yes I am agree with you about simple life. Buying things for showing others give little happyness but waste our valueable time.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Thankyou for the upload. If only we could see these thing when we were young. There would have so much time and energy saved.

I have been a minimalist since i lived on my first sailboat, back when i was 34 years old. I live in a large home at 71, but iam still a minimalist , a different sailboat now.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Same since sailing when younger everything i needed was onboard with me. Now, still minimalist no matter where
very very valuable piece of information plus top-notch animations. Thank you so very much for reminding some of us though we are not there yet at 60s.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much

Thank you so much. I am working on this! It is the shift from buying whenever I see something I "need" that is still an area to work on. But I see I am making progress! Thank you!
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much

Thanks wise sir!
Very welcome
Unfortunately, our capitalism is clouded by greed at all levels. You have managed to provide the perfect video which to me describes minimalism for seniors.
Thank you for the wisdom that you have shared

I am not quite done with 40s. i resonate. completely. This is definitely the path i'd like to travel.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
@@WiseAdvice93 this January my life took a 360 degree turn when I watched my mother fall n stop breathing for a few minutes. The present seemed all alive and the only thing which was important. I realised how much of time we had lost ruminating over the past and projecting a future which may never well come to pass. We were carrying burdens too heavy and unnecessary to carry. Still trying to find a way out. And yes, we had gathered enough unnecessary things and people who ultimately were there for themselves. Big time downsizing is necessary.So hopeful seeing your video.
In our 40s we simlified our accounts, bills, shopping (budget and track your spending) decluttered and organised our life. When it came to retiring/redundancy it made it sooo much easier to make the jump. You really wont regret it, we wish we had done it earlier.
First off. 1. Secondly, thanks! And have a marvelous day !
Good morning!
1 thank you for sharing your thoughts on simple and slow living. Makes life happier🙂

1. Its lovely to find something on youtube that actually applies to me, thank you
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Most people watching this . Will i am sure notice that time moves faster as we get older . It's now so important to relish that time we have left as it quickly goes by .

All good advice but reconnecting or strengthening our relationship with God is the most important for me. At the end, the enjoyment aspect becomes a vague memory, but God is now.
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much
Well said! Thank you for sharing your powerful insight.❤
Great and wise advice.
Thank you very much
Excellent advice and suggestions. These must be followed in some form or another for all ages. I wonder , is there any reason why you haven't covered volunteering and spending our knowledge and experience for the benefit of the needy. Apart from seeing happiness on the face of others , it can keep us active and sharp - physically and mentally , not to be in the rat race , but yet keep occupied as per our convenience. Regards -
Your sharing is wonderful, thank you very much

All I buy now is new flannel pjs every year, and comfy sweats and hoodies. I live in a very cold place, which I love! That’s all!
That sounds so cozy! Nothing beats comfy clothes and staying warm in the cold. Enjoy every moment of it! ❄️😊
