    ✨ Hi! How are you? What does "living simply" mean to you?
    In this video, I talk about:
    1. Downsizing
    2. The importance of location
    3. Minimalism
    4. Mindfulness

    I have always found calm in minimalist living. Nordic culture seems quite similar to Maritime culture, where we embrace nature and family/friends.

      True! Here in Finland, many people own cabins on islands in the sea or by the lakes. Spending time by the water is a big part of our lifestyle in the summer.

      That's a beautiful perspective! Embracing minimalism and nature creates such a serene and inviting atmosphere

    I have my routines that bring me calm and I rarely allow anything to interfere with my calming routines - my early morning walk before work with my dog, a leisurely breakfast, my Saturday morning food shop, weekend hikes…all of these small things bring me peace.

    Kuro so cosy on your husbands lap❤ I think pets can really improve your mental health. I love the way you plate up your biscuits for tea. My home is clutter free I prefer it that way I agree it doesn’t stop stressful situations, but it gives a calm space to recharge. Too much clutter I feel overwhelms the senses and it must be hard to relax. I like to be mindful when walking our dog every day. Although sometimes the demands on my time can make me want to rush through this but I always try to stop breathe and slow down live in the moment and I am also mindful this is my dogs time to enjoy. Your videos are also very calming and remind us to be more mindful in our every day life. 😊

      Thank you for your kind words! 😊 I agree, pets have a way of bringing lots of comfort and joy 🐾❤️ It sounds like you’ve created a wonderfully mindful routine with your daily dog walks. I love that you see your daily walks as a moment for your dog to enjoy! Thank you for sharing that ❤️

    For anyone who wants a more calm and peaceful life, I have a book to recommend. Stolen Focus by Johann Hari is probably the most important book I have ever read.

    • @calmnordic
      @calmnordic  หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Thank you for the recommendation! 😊 I’ll definitely check it out! If anyone else has book recommendations on finding peace and focus, feel free to share them here! ❤️

    I love your videos. So peaceful and calming. I am trying to get into practicing mindfulness. I really need it. Also doing more decluttering of my home on a regular basis. Making it a habit. 🙂

    I'm happy that you are back living near your friends - that is so important. Kuro is so happy that his people are back home!! On mindfulness, the book "Good Morning, I Love You" by Shauna Shapiro is incredible and would be a great book for you to do a video on. Have you read it? Another beautiful video. You are my favorite TH-camr!

      @calmnordic  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 It really is wonderful to be closer to friends, and you're absolutely right, Kuro is loving having us home! I haven’t read Good Morning, I Love You yet, but I’ll definitely check it out. A video on it could be a great idea, thank you for the suggestion!

    Hello! I have been on a similar path for awhile now. Letting go of so many things I had accumulated for a life different to how I live now. Having less things has given me a sense of calm and ease in my home. After a 40 years in corporate life, I continue to try and achieve daily mindfulness and being present ☺ I have a small home but in near future I see myself in a smaller apartment. Closer to the city for accessibility for what I need day to day. I really enjoy your insights and glimpses into the changes you have made.

    I know what you mean find it hard to sit still 😂... i used to be like that during meditation and find 10 mins meditation so long.. but now i find 10 mins meditation flew by and i am addicted in how it makes me feel so calm after and how it help me let go more unneccessary things during the day.. i guess don't force it you do what works for you 🥰🥰

    • @calmnordic
      @calmnordic  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for sharing! It's inspiring to hear how meditation has become such a calming and positive part of your routine! 🧘‍♀️ I definitely want to learn and practice more. It’s reassuring to know that, with time, those 10 minutes can really start to feel natural and even fly by. 🥰

    I have an app to motivate me to meditate and take time for mindfulness. They plant trees for people when I meditate so it’s not just making my life better. So far this year I have planted 30 trees through them. If I’m struggling I go sit in the garden and just breathe while my mind empties out.
