Is Your Home Stressing You OUT??
In today’s video, we’re discussing the power of rituals to create harmony and reduce stress.
At the start of a new year, I am always seeking ways to bring more happiness and harmony into my home. After the holiday frenzy has died down, I love to lose myself in quiet reflection so I’m armed with focus and direction.
I find that instituting small rituals and following them with some creative freedom allows me to find calmness in the chaos of life. Rituals can help you stay present while you’re focused on simple acts like making coffee every morning or lighting your favorite scented candle before bedtime.
If you are looking for simple ways to reduce stress and bring more peace and calm into your life, this video is for you!

What small rituals do you perform to help reduce stress and bring more positivity to your life? ✨
A day of self care to really pamper myself is how I love to reduce stress and bring positive vibes into my life. I'll get a mani/pedi, a massage, haircut, do my makeup really nicely... all on the same day! I believe that when we feel good in our bodies, we become more confident, therefore attracting more good energy our way.
I have a morning coffee ritual, but I'd LOVE to get off coffee & return to a decaf chai once this Adderall shortage ends 😭
I only recently discovered you. I particularly appreciate your common sense attitude, the cleaner lines but still a bit of a rule breaker. You also give permission (I'm too old to need now) to go my way with choices. I live in a geodesic dome which is challenging. It has evolved into a unique welcoming style with no style label, but all who come here become animated and appreciative of the space they've entered. I am near 80 but traveled to Taiwan when I was 18, lived there for 4 years and gave birth to my first child. I still find myself drawn to the culture, remembering the hard working folk that I became friends with. The simplicity and use of metals and clay seem to have impacted my style. I agree that tradition and rituals make our days more memorable and pleasurable. Thankfulness is my mantra, smiles and good cheer my attitude, and joy in that first cup of coffee in the morning in my pyjamas and unbrushed teeth! Forgive my spelling.... Goon che Fatz ai ! or... Happy New year!!!
Aw I love that Beverly! The power of rituals help to calm our minds and strengthen our hearts as well. We never forget those who made an impact, especially when sharing their own rituals and culture with us. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel 🙏🏻☺️💕
❤
Dean Beverly, i am flashed about your words. Where could you live in a Dome, i m
isen‘t it to cold in the Winter? Or to wet? You would have a Story telling livetime it seams. Thank you, youre words I will remember …
Best Christine, Germany. (Sorry my English)
Love ❤ Julie ❤️ at last, the simple matters ❤️
In the kitchen drawer with all the utensils, I purged that a few years ago. I only have a couple upstairs. The extras I put in a bin in the basement. When I entertain over the holidays, I bring up enough to cover all the extra dishes that need the serving utensils. After the holidays or I’m done entertaining, they get washed & returned to the bin downstairs. This bin also allows me to bring a serving utensil when I bring a dish to a potluck or a party. If I forget to bring home the utensil, it’s fine…I have extra. 😂 This also works out when I’m volunteering at a church supper. I always have serving utensils just in case we need more. I realize I am blessed to have the extra storage space for these items. Some people don’t have that but it works for me. 😊
Finally someone who pronounces the name of Marie Kondo in the right way😉 !! Thank you, Julie! Never heard that from anyone else before😊
I made a whole video on decluttering my home office the Mari-(ay) Kondo way, pronounced it (correctly) and still had viewers chime in and said her name is Ma-REE!!! Um not really buddy lol 😆 you can’t win them all Susanne!
@@JulieKhuu 😅
Thanks Julie. I love this video. I am not Buddhist but I do have daily and New Year rituals that I have been doing since forever.. and my husband teases me all the time when I perform my rituals. I do follow or have rituals for the Western and Eastern New Year. I change my wallet with the year's lucky color to bring in the New Year. One or two days before New Year, I create a prosperity basket filled with 12 different fruits, chocolates, $ bills , coins, etc, and decorate my house with red and gold Chinese decs which I really love. I do clean out and organize my kitchen, bedroom drawers at least twice a year, before the new year and around summer. I change our curtains, bed sheets and other things to make way for the new lucky colors, etc. BTW, the couple at the beginning of the video, was that you and your husband? Kung Hei Fat Choi!
My ritual is to change curtain, carpet, pillow case every year and follow what's the color of the year. I also reorganized the things around the house..and general cleaning every season
You've inspired me to buy some red and yellow candles to celebrate the Lunar New Year.
Thank you so much Julie! ❤You gave me an idea, I live in a new town that is seasonal so there’s very few people and too quiet to celebrate New Year’s Eve but now there’s Chinese New Year and a few of my co-workers are going to try out celebrating instead on Feb. 10th. We’re gonna look for Chinese New Year decorations and wear red.
Fun!! Yes, red is very auspicious- accent with gold jewelry for double the luck Leticia! 🧨🎋🐉
I stumbled upon this video and it really resonated with me. The simple rituals suggested, instantly created a more harmonious atmosphere in my home. I never realized how small changes could have such a big impact on reducing stress.
Exactly. When organizational + ritual systems are already put in place, our homes begin to serve us 🙏🏻💕
I love your channel and the wealth of knowledge you deliver from a culture I know little about. All the feng shui and this gives content give me vibes of hope, and that in itself makes me feel more positive. I learned a ritual a few years ago which is simple and works for me.. someone told me they do one thing daily to improve , and that can be your home, mind, body or spirit. I focus on a task in the home as my house was derelict when I purchased it many years ago and will forever be a work in progress. So whether I clean the skirting boards, touch up or clean up a marked wall or repot a plant, I do something daily to improve my life 🎉 Happy new year when it arrives and thanks for inspiring me ❤
Oh I love that!! So easy to do when you have a plan of attack 👏🏻
I was around 18 when I watched Oprah interview Goldie Hawn and she said the best piece of advice her father gave her was to do one creative thing a day. That totally resonated with me and here we are ✨
What a very lovely and meaningful video! I love my own self n house rituals as well. Thank you! Happy New Year!
In August when the kids were in school I would throw out all socks and underwear (they were a mess) and buy new to be ready for the school year. I would make sure each child had some type of identifying brand on their socks for my sake at laundry time. 😂
That’s genius! I’m stealing this idea 😂
I never realized how much home rituals could influence my mood until I watched this video. The actionable tips for reducing stress were not only insightful but also easy to implement. This video is a must-watch for anyone looking to make their home a more peaceful and stress-free place.
Hi Julie
I totally agreed with you! I do holiday decorating bc it moves the year along. The children will remember all that you do for them. They may adopt your ways. Their creative nature will emerge and you Will see that as they grow. I do! ❤️. They remember so much that I did at home to make the holidays and birthdays special. And lots of photos many on film and prints put in books for each one of them so they can look at them and remember all these things. And it’s up to you to do this! Have fun! ❤️🥰
That’s definitely on my to-do list Margaret- printing out the thousands of photos that I take regularly. It’s a doozy, but you’re absolutely right. I do love thumbing through photo albums, I remember holidays spent going through old photos with my family. I almost forgot about this beloved tradition! Thanks for the reminder 💖🥰
In some ways Julie film was easier. You just brought the role in and picked up the prints. Trashed the bad ones and put the rest in a book. Now you go through thousands of photos all at once and decide which to print and put it in a book. Think about just making a video with movie maker with music. I have done that too and play it on my TVs. It’s amazing!!! Save it to a flash drive for each of them so they can take it with them or put it in their memory boxes! ❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰
You are so interesting! I love how you bring in lots of topics that relate to making your home what you need it to be. Thank you!
Love this video! I’ve been cleaning out drawers, cabinets, lines closets, under the sinks ( bathroom and kitchen). It really does make me feel better. I’m the rat! 😊
Thanks so much for sharing your rituals! 🥰❤️♥️😘🎈🎁🙏
You’re going to have an incredibly prosperous 2024! Rats are very compatible with dragons if you follow the Chinese zodiac 👏🏻
@@JulieKhuu thanks Julie! I only follow Chinese zodiac a little! When I can’t figure out something or I need to decide on something- I definitely refer to Chinese zodiac! You hug and kiss those beautiful baby girls! 🥰🥰😘😘
Watching this video felt like discovering a secret to a more peaceful home. Julie's insights into the impact of home rituals on well-being were motivating and I've already incorporated some of these ideas into my routine.
Always a Blessing !🙂
🩷
Great video Julie 🥰. I love the tree painting in your bedroom! 😊
Thank you so much! Sneak peek of the primary bedroom makeover in this vid- can’t wait to show you the whole reveal! ☺️
Looking forward to it!
Hi julie
Nice video
Its expiry date not expiration date
You gv me a complex...
How clean nd tidy...
Its inspiring
Lov ur
Videos too...hv learnt so much from you...😊❤
Hi Julie,
I couldn’t agree more with declutter, I feel very stressed if my house is clutter, my ritual is that deep cleaning I just love as well
You look very pretty with a black hair as well
The girls are very cute dressed up to go the temple ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😘😘😘😘
I get up and tend to all my inside and outside cats get me some coffee then spend 20 minutes in prayer to God ( I am Christian) then 20 minutes of goals and dreams.
Best way to start your morning! Purpose, intent, and those precious furries!! Love it all, thank you for sharing 💖
First and foremost, that floral cardigan of yours is so charming. Secondly, you gotta tell us where one might find a beautiful gold Buddha statue like yours. I've looked on Etsy before with no success. Lastly, I must say I really loved this video. I've always been drawn to feng shui and interested in learning more about Chinese culture and traditions. I'm not Asian but for the first time in my life I marked my calendar for Feb 10 even before this video came out, but I had no idea what to do in preparation for the new lunar year or how to celebrate it. I learned lot with this video so thank you so much for your guidance and inspiration. Cheers!
Hi Jackie! I love lunar new year, it’s like our second chance at starting fresh when we still need more time after Xmas and Jan 1 😂 Orange County is home to the largest Vietnamese population outside of Vietnam. There are hundreds of vendors in Westminster (drive down Bolsa st) that sell gorgeous Buddha statues as well as cultural items and new year’s decorations. If I find some online, I’ll definitely share with you. Look into finding a local Buddhist temple in your area! Go on Feb 10, you’ll love it I’m sure- it’s so festive!! 🎋🐲🧨🎊🎇🎆
@@JulieKhuu Thanks for the reply!! 😊
I enjoy meditation and exercise. I love learning new things. This year, I've started learning more languages and cultures. I also enjoy music, and scent to set the vibe on my home.
Scent memory is a strong foundation to begin a new ritual. I can still smell my grandmother’s perfume as I lay beside her while she meditated 🙏🏻💕
@@JulieKhuu 🙏🏾💝
@JulieKhuu I'm learning more about how to apply the hotel scents also ( tho not exclusively). Sometimes, as you say, scents from my dad, grandma and my mom are so much needed in those times of stress and anxiety, like a comfy blanky. They were not outside career ladies, so always anchored the home with their personal fragrances, fresh laundry, delicious cooking & baking, etc. We grew up in an extended family home with both grandparents and parents. And we called our neighbors aunt and uncle, cousins. I carried on that tradition until now my children have moved out into the world. I hope they will do the same. Generations evolve, but memories stay the same. I'm grateful for the memories, 🤗🥰.
Love the personality of all your videos but this one is the best ❤
Thank you Stella! 🙏🏻☺️💖
Yes....we do some rituals here and there... thanks Julie ❤️
Thank you for watching Dara 🙏🏻☺️💕
Really love the lovely ideas to prepare and launch into a serene happy & prosperous New Year! ❤️
Happy prosperous yet peaceful and calm! We got this Lois 🙌🏻💖✨
On Lunar New Year Wendy and I pass out the red envelopes to her Family, (17 people) we feast, sometimes with an entire roast pig, and then play Mahjong. Looking forward to it this year.
Sounds like an awesome time with the fam Franklin! 🎋🎆🎇🧨
I nevet thought about that...
Best compliment I’ve received today 🙏🏻☺️✨
Hi Julie this coming February 10 I move in to my new house do you think it’s good fenghui.
Just me wondering about dehydration: whatever happened to drinking water first thing in the morning? 🤔
I was born under the metal rat. My zodiac matches are the monkey and the dragon. I don't know much about astrology, but it is fun and interesting to learn about. 😊
Excellent year for rats and monkeys in the year of the dragon 🐉🥳
❤💛
Omg I’m a rat so this is a lucky year for me? Please 🙏🏼
Yes! 🙌🏻 and for monkeys too ☺️
Good day Ms Julie! Hapyy New Year! Hope you can upload your Feng Shui Practical or Simple WAY/s of Curing or Enhancing the Flying Stars 2024 in every direction of our home. Looking forward to watch them. Greetings from UAE
I absolutely love hearing about your Asian beliefs and wonderful rituals. It's fascinating for an Oklahoma rancher's daughter!
PS. Oklahoma's not that bad.😉😄
brushing my teeth before eating or drinking in the morning just doesn't make sense. what? you leave the house with coffee breath?
After coffee ☕️ I work from home, no one else is around ☺️
Luv every bit of this video....from a Boston Irish Catholic...lol🍀🐀🐲
Happy new year! Thank you for watching ☺️💕✨
