I became a minimalist from a v young age as I never wanted to have the hoarding tendencies my parent did. Unfortunately it’s gone from minimalism to compulsive decluttering and it doesn’t just involve the items I own but number of people I allow in my life, tasks I take on and even the amount of sentimental items I own.
This account has really helped me to value what I own and not make it about the number of things I own. It’s important for me to keep things that are meaningful to me even if they aren’t always necessary. Although I wished I learned that earlier in life I’m glad to really learn that through this channel. Sorry for the long comment however I wish you safe travels to your new destination thank you for another great video☺️
Thank you for sharing your story :) appreciated the support and love
it seems that you may be a spartanist. I actually developed some tendencies myself, if I could, I wouldn't own anything honestly. I wish you the best on your journey
I relate so much to this omg. Especially in the sense of ‘my parents were extreme one way so i developed an adverse reaction that was just as extreme the other way’
Oh my gosh I was just talking about this with my mom last night, she had a similar thing in her childhood and now is all the way to the other extreme with how clean her home is. It sometimes felt more like a hotel than a home growing up because it was so clean - it didn't look "lived in." You've inspired me to share some of these videos with her too, thank you Ceilidh!
This is very inspiring
Thank you Nate :)
Even as an absolute maximalist, I love your channel 🥰 you’re so inspirational and give great advice
I'm happy to hear that ❤️
Hahaha I think it’s good to find a balance of both 💛
What if you had nothing? How would u cope
I am the same as I am a maximalist. She taught me how to be more mindful before I click “buy” on online orders, and get things organized before I make another purchase. Totally agree!
That’s great, you’re on right path 💛
having a few items and clothes is just so much easier. You avoid all the clutter and it is easier to find what you're looking for or what to wear. This video was so satisfying to watch ,it felt like a breeze, seeing that you kept only the essentials ❤
Totally agree with that. To have too much and live with clutter is distracting and confusing and soulless. I am living a fairly minimalist lifestyle. Its a better way to live.
I started my simplifying journey in January of this year, I've decluttered so many things that I don't even remember owning. I started off never wanting to be a "minimalist" but the longer I am on this journey, the more I want to be minimal and the more I realize how little I really use on a daily basis and what I truly care about. I just found your channel and I am loving your content
I think that minimalising is a task for the whole life. I try to keep up with it on a constant basis and always get excited when I can get rid of things. Last week I was able to sell equipment for hobbies I gave up a long time ago. That gave me a really good feeling. 😊
These vlogs are without a doubt helping me with stress levels, sooo calm and beautiful
Happy to hear that :)
Same for me; every time I feel stress, I put on one of her videos and I instantly feel calm, cool and collected…and at peace.
I love that your so intentional about the things you own. I personally would like to try and be more minimalist one unnecessary item as a time so this is really helpful. I’m sad to see you leave Hawaii but I’m excited to see this new chapter in your life 💛
This video is so motivating and speaks to what I'm dealing with right now. I'm currently in the process of moving to London and feeling overwhelmed about what to take with me and what to let go of. This was very encouraging!
I really enjoyed that you kept valued items, and the pups made that list! As a dog foster I see so many people leaving behind their pets and it makes my heart super happy that people really do make them a priority even when moving across international waters 🤍 Loved the video, very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
The way you thinking about possession and what is necessary in life is very inspiring ! I love how you chose everything you needed so intentionally ! Of course it is such a big transition what you are going through , and i hope that everything will go as smoothly as possible ! Take care 🤍
Your soothing voice is my favorite part of the videos. It brings so much peace itself.
Hi Malama! Can’t wait to see your new home and what you kept! 🥰🤎
I love this! Definetly minimising when I get home even more. I was living in two places and when I put all my stuff into one I was horrified by the sheer volume. I am on my way back from holiday where I barely brought a thing and it is the most liberating feeling!!
Thank you for taking us on your journey, and sharing what you love
I can’t wait for next video🌹🌹
I am so very happy to see you are bringing the fur babies on your journey. You didn't mention either way in your last video so I was worried. So glad you are taking the chance and doing this! Very happy for you!! Jackie
You're beautiful inside and outside... and so is your channel. It gives me peace. Thank you so much!
So HAPPY for you! This is soooooo satisfying to watch. I recently made a big move from SF to Seattle and we got rid of everything but our bed and two suitcases!!! FREEDOM! Now we are settled in and our sparse little cottage is like a Zen monastery: barely any furniture, very wabi sabi, neat and tidy. We are so happy being minimalists (we're a little on the extreme side and we love it). So excited to see where this journey takes you and your loved ones 💙💜💙💜
So cool we're going through a similar journey:) i feel really free as well
So excited for this new journey & season. Wishing you peace & joy. ✌️❤️🌞
I love your calming voice and your dog!
"Listening" to your videos while decluttering my kitchen.
You truly made an impact to me since I started watching your videos. Thank you so much, Sophie. 😊 You are an inspiration. Looking forward to your videos and ig post (as always) 😊♥️
Aww thank you. So happy to hear that!
Sophie, your videos are life-changing. Thanks for sharing all those wonderful experience and life lessons.
I am so happy I pumped into your channel because im going through a very odd but reflective stage in my life and I suppose the universe saw it fitting that I come across your channel. This has inspired me to really be intentional about my possessions.
Have a great trip and thank you for inspiration and calmness❤️
The Prophet is such an amazing book! I also own a copy that I found in a thrift shop and fell in love :)
I find your channel so relaxing! I am also decluttering right now and it feels amazing and freeing. I wish you and your family all the best💞
Thanks for sharing Sophie can't wait to see your new home 💜
Your videos are inspiring many people. I am not an absolute minimalist, however I always love to see your videos. Love from New Zealand.
From minimalist to mystic to spiritualist ! Great journey Sophia! God bless ! 🙂
This is inspiring. I'd love to see a dedicated wardrobe video on what you kept and why.
Yesssss, I am on my way across the country, and my husband and I were just talking about this. We own less than almost everyone we know, but there are definitely belongings we have that we want to streamline - mainly some things that serve one purpose but which we could buy one thing to serve multiple purposes, and then have fewer items. I'm so excited about this video, thank you for sharing!!
Always happy to see a video from you Sophie🥰
Such a beautiful and motivating video, thank you. I hope you are also taking along your adorable two dogs. All the very best to you all and be blessed for always.
Moving to Portugal? Welcome! I've been a minimalist and, despite the natural fallback to old habits and/or thoughts from time to time, it has added real value to my life! Thank you for sharing
Amazing video! I’m so excited for you and your journey! Can’t wait for next video.
I truly love all your videos but this randomly spoke to me like for real... thank you so very much for it and for all the feelings it's making me feel ❤️❤️❤️
So happy to hear that ❤️
I always love your videos; they're so soothing. My family and I move often for my husband's work, so I like the inspiration I find in your videos for always re evaluating my possessions. I used to think minimalism was impossible with children, but 2020 really gave me the OCD push to purge, and truly start fresh. It has been, amazing. Excited to watch your journey continue! Cheering you on from Oahu! Let's see what's next :)
Thank you ❤️ much Aloha kiki
Malama, I appreciate you for minimalism that finally brings more freedom and joy in the life. I am improwing in this area .It is hard but worth of doing it.
I’d love to see a video of your closet in detail! I’m looking to replace a couple of cheap/low quality items in my closet that I wear often, with items that are higher quality/“sustainable”.
As I am preparing to serve in the Peace Corps, these videos are definitely giving me perspective and aligning with what I want to bring with me and value!
I absolutely love your channel and your voice, it allways calms me immediately.
Thank you for your practical inputs.
Sending love from Switzerland
Sending much love back to you. Thanks Laura
I just started watching you..so excited for your new adventure..and I have wanted to purge stuff for a while now so I made plans to do this weekend thanks for the push.
Ahh I’ve been so excited for this video! And that house is SO beautiful 😍
What a great video, so interesting seeing what you found truly worth while to bring with you as you make your move. I’m happy to hear that you guys just rented out your home on Maui instead of selling it, because it really does seem like a special corner in the world :) Looking forward to your subsequent videos on your move to Portugal! Hi from Greece :)
I ❤️ the minimalist lifestyles... Thank you for sharing your minimalist journey as an added tips to my minimalist lifestyles too.
You are such an inspiration to me, I love your videos, they made me dream in a soft and calm way ❤️
Thank you Sophie,embrace our beautiful journey❤️
so inspiring to watch, im a fan now 🫰🏼btw im on my road to minimalist... it is so hard to give up the things that you bought, the money you waste, but for now, im eliminating those things that i dont use ...im on becoming a minimalist, hopefully and im happy to be one❤️
Safe journey Sophie, i love your videos , your soulfulness & gentleness. 💗🌱💖🌿
thank you so much ❤️
I hope everything comes the way you both desire my loveliest Sophie💓💓 How well organized all your stuff is... great job as always🥰🫶🏻🥰🫶🏻☕🫶🏻📖🍵
Your videos are so inspiring! I enjoy watching them all and you’re so relaxing to watch :) I am aspiring to be a minimalist… it’s in working process.
Much love from the UK
I was a bit sad at the beginning thinking that you had to say goodbye to your home forever. Now knowing that you rent it out furnished while both of you are gone, I feel excited for your both of you! Cheers Malama!
thank you :)
Love your new house in Portugal!😍 Can't wait to watch your next journey there.
You're such an inspiration Sophie. Time to recycle some old clothes. I haven't read The Profit for years but think I will again soon. Nice post, thanks.
Aw thank you so much ❤️
Ohh my gosh so happy to hear your voice!!! Thanks for posting even when you are in this big adventure, i think I can’t leave calm and inspired without your videos 🥺💖
Aw thank you Taya ❤️ appreciate you
@@MalamaLife always there for you! I can sleep peacefully only after watching your videos😴 thanks again!!!
I feel very peaceful whenever I see your new video even not watching it yet. Because I know that there's minimalism like me out there and she's still happy, calm, and inspired.
To say about the video, it's useful like usual, Sophie. Thank you!
P.S. I also use your videos for studying English. I super love your voice 😄
Thank you for sharing! I'm in the process of minimizing as we are building a tiny home. I'm looking forward to owning less, but more meaningful items.
Your voice is so soothing and relexing. 💗
your videos are truly amazing. 💕
thank you so much :)
I just came across your video.
I am a beginner minimalist too.
Love your voice, and the way you keep mentioning "keep what is important to you and use it"...
you're living my dream!!! im so inspired by these videos
thank you for making these videos, they have made a huge difference in my life!
So happy to hear that :)
@@MalamaLife wishing you and your little family all the best on this new chapter
Sophie, you're absolutely gorgeous and your voice is very calming :) I just can't get enough, keep your channel going!
I loved the video, congrats on the decluttering, this is really a nice compact collection
This is inspiring - we learn what matters.
Five years ago I immigrated to Uruguay with just a backpack and one suitcase. In the process before leaving, I had to go through my entire wardrobe and hundreds of books, and decide what to keep at my friend's, what to give away, and what to bring. My rule for bringing anything back to my new home when I visit my family - did I miss it during the past year? It's amazing how much my priorities changed by moving internationally.
Hi malama! I’m new to your channel and you became one of my favorite youtuber :)) Your words are so inspiring. I’m watching your videos from yesterday to be more productive and healthy. Your’s and Lavandaire’s channel are really inspiring💗
You have the most smoothing voice. Watching your videos, very therapeutic.
ur voice is highly soothing that makes one feel so euphorically free from this hustle fill life.
Thanks for sharing! Your videos are so inspiring and always beautifully put together!💗
Thank you :)
This is awesome!! So happy for you! Such a beautiful journey of being able to let go and receive what is new and in certain can and will be a beautiful transition for LIFE! I love seeing the simple joy in holding on to what gives you peace and joy, while making such a rich transition! …finding your own way to be able to make a new version of home wherever you are in the world and giving yourself time and space to let go in the future if and how you need to. 🙏🏾 Such a grand story of kindness, courage and patience with self. Your handmade succulent holder is beautiful and the two books that are the same yet not really 🥰 those special stories of your very own, adding to your joy and freedom to just be you - such sweetness! It’s like giving yourself a hug! Lol 🥰♥️♥️♥️ I’ve always loved how you teach that minimalism is not about some perfect numerical goal but about simplifying, and giving yourself the ability to live a life of value that’s right and soothing to your own soul! Thank you so much for always sharing little bits of who you are and your beautiful journey with us babe!
Side note ! lol rando question 🙋🏽♀️ lol. What kind of mic do you use!?? I’m leaning into getting one soon and want to keep it minimal but effective! I always LOVE the gentleness of your audio, so I feel it may do the trick for me!
Thank you again for all you do babe! God bless your joy, your freedom and your journey! Truly and completely, from the inside out! 🙏🏾
And remember, we are grateful for your sharing! It blesses so many. But be sure to take your time navigating this new path. Allow yourself and your hubby whatever time you need to be free and breathe. We aren’t going anywhere! ♥️ Change can be good for the soul! I’m sure you know. 🙏🏾 When we allow ourselves to open, slowly but surely, we receive much! Keep looking for the light just for you! If your schedule has to shift, we understand! Those who need your encouragement will be here for the long haul- if that’s what helps your heart soar!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I use a yeti mic and the link is in my description box :)
🙏🏾 thank you!!
Love these videos! I love that all items have a purpose. And I’m a fan of my silk pillows too!! (Oh, you forgot to mention that you ship all your keepsakes to your sisters house 😅 ) can’t wait to see the next home!
Thanks sis love you see you soon❤️
Im glad you commented this honestly. I know this can't be all she owns... and keeping things at your house means this is not all she owns. The over aesthetic and hearing someone talk about how they have a matcha bowl but not an odd sock or pair of leggings with a hole is juse alienating... so you might not like my reply, but I was very glad to read this comment and feel less shitty about not ever being able to be this "aesthetic" and perfect.
@@theboujieproletariat I was trying to show as much as I could in under 10 minutes. The boxes of photo albums my sister is talking about originally belonged to my parents. I hope that clarifies
your place is beautiful and I would keep watching it whole day :) thanks
I have the exact same journal. I have 2 many journals so I definitely need to to declutter to maybe 2 and not 7. Also I need to save copies of my documents to the cloud and my hard drive and put other important documents in my file folder. Great video.
I feel like more than ever now that I just want to leave everything and just go. I mean, still have my son and husband with me though. 😆
I love that you are able to live so freely, far away from the 9 to 5 grind, sitting in traffic everyday.
Wishing you the best, Sophie!
Your videos are Soo uplifting and soothing for me… thank you for ur bravery to be vulnerable.. it surely helps me a lot .😍🥰🥰😍😍
I really admire your paper file folder…that’s goals for me. 🤔 I feel like I can reduce my paper even more, especially photos. Great reminders thank you💕
It was a huge project, but really satisfying. I still do have some photo albums
@@MalamaLife Mine is receipts from taxes for the last 7 years 😳🤦🏻♀️🧾 not looking forward to it. Already did appliance booklets. I just checked if there’s an online version, photos, old greeting cards (🤦🏻♀️). I need to work on office supplies too
The accordion folder is the analog OG of organization. It will outlive every app. Sh** just works.
Wishing you a smooth move to Portugal! We go through the decluttering process each time before we set out on long-term travels. It's a good opportunity to let go. 🌺 Heidi
Wow what an inspiration to live with essentials. Also love your vids, it so relaxing
Whooo ! This cabbine is soooo beautiful !! I love it
Super inspiring! Thanks for all your videos :) They are always good!
Hi Sophie. Beautiful video as always. I wish you and your husband the very best here in Portugal. Looking foward to know more of your journey in my country. 😘💞
Amazing 😊 I find that I do not purchase a lot things, but I really struggle to get rid of things already owned/gifted when I do not need or want them. I get too sentimental 😅Thank you for your videos😊
I also get attached as well. It made me reprioritize when I was forced into the situation
I love your new home. It looks like a fairytale house in the woods. ❤️
I love your channel and I don't usually comment on videos but you inspired me so much. Take care always 🥰
Thank you for watching and commenting. Happy that you're enjoying the videos
A wonderful, thought provoking video. Thank you ❤️
That sounds like just the right amount for traveling and staying places for awhile. I would need more aesthetic items like some art and photos, rugs, a few more small decorative items of personal meaning, a few indoor plants that are sort of like family, some more coffee mugs, and a few kitchen utensils. But maybe once you settle down, you'll bring over a little bit more. I crave the continuity of carrying some things with me year after year, though there is not much left of that sadly. But if you only had 5 suitcases, you definitely did an amazing job 👏
You become my inspiration whenever I feel depressed I watch ur videos 😊
❤️❤️❤️
I started adapting a minimalist lifestyle very recently, learning minimalist lifestyle right here on you channel and a ton of other has really inspired me, and for the few months that I have started I have really see a change not only on my perspective to life and all the things around me but also a chance to get to know myself better. I come from a Latino background (from Dominican Republic) and for us having more means we are worthy or that we have more than other. Growing up with this mentality was very unhealthy and it drained my souls to the fullest. I am glad that I was able to get out of that mentality and that way of thinking and living. Now I feel happier I live in New York City but I bought land in the Dominican Republic a town area, where I can breath fresh air, rivers around the are, beach and I can live a peaceful life with less! As soon as I finish my house and save some money I am moving. (In DR you don’t need much to live good compare to the US) Thanks to all the RUclipsr and people that really put their hearts into helping other achieve that free mind.
Before you leave you should check out upstate NY! There are many beautiful pine trees, fresh springs, clean waters and scenic mountains. Don’t let NYC leave a bad taste in your mouth! 😊✌️
Sophie your videos are really awesome..it's a daily dose of inspiration for me..I'm dreaming to live a meaningful and peaceful life..for my dream your videos are giving me a lot of inputs..love u soo much..
Aw thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
This is so encouraging and inspiring
Wow you’re still keeping a lot of great footages from Maui home! Wow you even bring your yoga mat, pillow case and coffee kit! Didn’t expect that. I think I’m going to buy a matcha kit too
Yes! You need a matcha kit since you love it 😍
@@MalamaLife haha yes yes. I was too lazy to make. Always buy it
Your home is soo beautiful ❤️
Love this😍
Love it. Thank you!
Thank you for watching ❤️
Such a beautiful, inspiring and peaceful house. So inspiring. Love your videos so much. Thanks for sharing. Xx 😍😍
Thanks for watching:)
This is so relaxing ☺️♥️
❤️😁 thank you!
I love that brown bag.
I am new to this channel and enjoyed the content, picture, voice and sound. Subscribed!
I keep on checking your channel for an update 💛 and when you mention the "yoga mat" I was like "aw this is so me". Stay healthy there! *hugs
❤️😁 glad it resonates!
This is by far my favorite video of yours!!!😘❤️ P.S. Love your new house
