I wake up at 4 am and go to my studio and paint. I stay there for 4 hours, this enables me to get a lot done. Then I drink tea and go out iny garden and do an hour or so outside working in the fresh air I meditate after 3 pm, my day winds down after that . I try to get everything done in the morning and early afternoon.Reading and journalling and meal prep takes up the rest of the afternoon.I go to bed early.
Here in the US, life can get very cluttered and materialistic, so I greatly appreciate your very uplifting and beautiful perspectives. Thank you for your inspiring videos!
I put all of the unread books on my shelf in a separate box. Now when I wake up, I make tea, leave my phone inside with a 20 minute alarm set, and spend that time on the balcony, reading one of those books. After that, I do a couple Duolingo lessons. Then, I start the rest of my day.
I have been feeling overwhelmed lately as I have been going through major changes in my life right now and watching your videos has really helped me to find new things to do so I do and practice more minimalistic qualities in my life so I do not feel as overwhelmed. I am just starting this journey so I know I have room to grow, but that's exciting.
Hi Samurai Matcha. Your videos are amazing and inspirational. Here are a few habits which I feel have improved my life: wake up at 5am (like you), drink a pint of water first thing (rehydrate and start up my system), 30 minutes yoga and 30 minutes meditation before breakfast, 5 minutes of vocal warm ups (as a teacher I need a healthy throat and voice box), turn off all electronics, read 20 minutes or more daily, take to time to feel grateful for my life, turn the shower to coldest setting for the final 3 minutes, average 7000+ daily steps each week, enjoy and appreciate nature. Thanks from Scotland!
Absolutely grateful for finding this channel! Sometimes it's shocking that you find something so precious just by accident. Actually I'm already implement some things in my life after watching your vids! And I'm also grateful for your work, thank you Aki!
We have mandatory five prayers across the day, from before sunrise to after darkness. 1- I try to add a mid morning prayer (Dhuha) as a means of thanking God for all the blessings, which I could never count. 2- Also I do morning & evening Dhikr. 3- read from my current book for about 30-60 minutes 4- I try to postpone coffee to award myself and to take advantage of the natural morning cortisol rise.
I start my day with a quart of water 💦 Then read my Bible. I practice Wim Hoff breathing each day. I make one quilt block a day and make time for free reading. Blessings to you. Thank you for the video.
Your videos are always a lovely addition to my day! A few of my habits: 1) reciting mantra with mala beads first thing in the morning and right before I go to bed, 2) taking 5-10 minutes in the middle of the day to breathe, pray, and recenter, 3) nibbling on wild edible plants whenever I pass them, and 4) making at least one jar of herbal tea each day
Love waking up early, I started getting up at 5am in the summers so I can walk my dog before it gets too hot ( live in Texas) and its become a crucial part of my routine. My second favorite habit is drinking a gallon of water everyday.
Favorite youtuber ever! Thank you for another great video. After starting to drink matcha tea, after watching your videos, it has helped me to focus and taken care of my health too. I wake up at 4, try to be a minimalist and find it easier to write to do list too. You are always so inspiring! I will be getting rid of my bed too and try to become extreme minimalist because it helps me to find things and life is much easier with extreme minimalism. Thank you Aki! Always happy to see these amazing videos! 🇮🇳
I always allow myself playtime, in my case painting, drawing, art journalling. I have mobility issues so moving presents lots of difficulty, it is probable that your runs/walks do the same for you. I find this helps my mind freewheel, expand and rest at the same time. Then one day a week I have a longer play date. I also write my morning pages, see The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. I write these before my mind has become full of the day’s needs and have found it a great way to get to know myself better. These pages are similar to your secret journal as they are private. I usually paint over the pages when I have finished the book. This saves the paper and means that they are no longer readable. Thank you for your videos.
I live alone and recently stopped using the dishwasher. I began washing, drying and putting away the dishes after meals. It slows me down, makes my movements efficient, gives me time to think, and keeps me on my feet (and off the sofa). Thanks for all of the good advice!
I'm in complete awe of this. I read a book with a similar message, and it was astonishing. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
wonderful information tq for sharing with us, fyi, as a muslim we have been thought to wake up early in the morning to perform our solat (prayer) so what i do around 5.30am perform my solat, put a money in my charity box, reading a quran at least 2 pages and perform my morning dzikir (make a list of doa) and go to to work, before i sleep i do the same thing as well except this time i did not put a money in my charity box..my life is so calm doing it everyday knowing i have a purpose in my life.
1. Wake up at 5 a.m. That’s my cat’s bodyclock . It’s pitchblack here at 5 in the morning. Try in spring. 2. Drink macha. Something unavailable in my part . Can it be substituted for a good coffee? 3. Minimalism. I like. But I live with others, including a hoarding husband and a demanding cat. Also I have many crafty hobbies. Any tips? 4. Todo list. Yes, on my iPad. sometimes, but not rigid. 5. Secret diary. I had one when I was girlie, it had a tiny padlock and and even tinier key ….I loved writing poetry . oh, those long gone days… 😊 6. Typing speeds and practice, beware of RSI (repetitive strain injury) although it’s mostly mouse related… 7. Pomodoro, mmm don’t really need another guide in my life. But wishing you well!
I’m a minimalist-in-progress and I love your videos which give me so much encouragement so thank you! Your room is beautiful…the wood floors and wood on the walls create so much warmth! Thank you! ❤
I combine the to-do list and journal into a bullet journal. Not a fancy one as we can see many doing on the internet but a very basic one. This way, everything is on the same place: calendar, contacts, monthly schedule, weekly schedule, daily tasks. Before, everything was on my computer or phone but I prefer now the journal as it keeps me away from electronics when I don't need to use them otherwise, which is a good thing for me as I don't end up on Facebook or TH-cam with an initial intention of checking a date.
Before I get up from bed I focus on my gratitude for all the people and things that I have in my life. Even if times are hard, I take them as a source of knowledge
More great advice! Thank you! I am working on cleaning up after myself. After I finish a task I clean up and put things away. To have your home in order is wonderful!
after watching your videos, i have been preparing and drinking matcha every morning between 5-6 am with a prayer of gratitude. i started two weeks ago! thank you for the positivity and motivation
Each evening I decide what I will eat the next day. I also check the weather forecast and then pick out my clothes for the next day. I start my day with light exercises and drink a litre of water. This all minimizes morning stress. I was waking at different times but have decided to set my alarm for 5 a.m. each morning as I believe a regular time is healthier (as your video reminded me.) Thanks for this life-enhancing advice.
My father taught me to make this To Do List every day and that really helped me in my work. After marriage I used to make 2 To Do Lists, one for office and one for home. Home would be on my fridge door. Once my mother in law noticed and said I often find ticks on your office list. But once in a while tick should come on home list as well. Jokingly of course😅
I enjoy your videos very much! I do pick up garage too in a morning during my runs or just after it. I love how your organized your days and things in your life so it support you in your goals. I love your video about Japan ! Thank you! Best wishes!🌏🌈🙏🌷🌸
I'm enjoying your videos...the content, your creativity, your positive, uplifting attitude is so inspiring (and needed) these days!!! Thanks, so much!! 🇺🇸❤
My favorite habit is to start my day by “Writing Myself a Letter!” (I keep these letters in a Journal.) If you do this, you can give yourself all of the love and support you need - or, sometimes, I just write about my favorite things and why they make me happy. You can start your day thinking about happy, positive things - AND learn a LOT “about” yourself! 😊✨ (Occasionally, if I find myself going through other “difficult” emotions - I like to use metaphors to explore these emotions, such as: pain and sadness, anger, and/or fear. But, almost always, I try to start my day feeling happiness. :)
Hi Aki, I loved your video as always, your camera work is amazing and your voice is soothing. I like to set a timer to work out every hour, between 10am and 4pm, that way i remember to stop focusing on work for a while and get my body moving. thanks for your inspiration
Thanks for this great video, Aki. I am about to do a mid-year reset for my life and space, as clutter has gotten to be too much for me. I consider myself a minimalist, but would like to have even less, so this video has given me some great ideas for where I can improve.
It's nice to meet you through this channel.i am grateful for your videos it changes my thinking ☺️ thank you so much 🙏. I daily go to temple by 6'o clock and offer my respects and gratitude to god.this is my routine 🙂
Aki! Hey 👋 I love your videos, they are like meditation, so clam and relaxing. Because of your videos I have been drinking Matcha 🍵 in the mornings and maintaining a minimal lifestyle. I just wanted to say thank you. Ariagto! 🙏 Best wishes from Australia 😊
My habit is Sun,Wind and water. Every day feel the sun outside (even on rainy, snowy days the sun lights the sky) wind move or sit outside and there is always wind! and drink or connect to the water 🏊♂️ 🛀 -I just like the water! 😆
Thank you for another inspiring video!!! I like the idea of having a highlight task to accomplish every day. My To Do list is so long, I never complete everything, and it can be discouraging. Now I will decide my highlight task, and I will be glad to get the most important thing done, even if other items remain on my to-do list. 😌
I do things to benefit my ‘future self’ for example I always make my bed, tidy my bedroom and set the bathroom and kitchen to rights before leaving for work in the morning. Before bed, I always tidy the kitchen, wash and dry all the dishes and clean the sink so it is nice and fresh for when I get up on the morning. I also try and take a walk for a minimum of half an hour every day in nature.
Thank you Aki, I like your inspiring videos. I have to get up early to make breakfast and my husband's lunch so that is easy. I have been trying to incorporate more cleaning in my early morning routine after I have my prayer time. I want to incorporate a exercise routine like you so that is the next thing on my bullet list. I will try the matcha too when I find it at the grocery store. Have a great day! I am on your yesterday time.
Thank you for sharing, I will try especially pomodoro method. I feel lack of focus because I often multitasking. This remind me it will be better if you focus and do step by step perfectly.
Thank you for making these videos! Recently, I have been getting up early and I have noticed that I can do much more in the morning. It makes me less stressed and less tired later in the day.
I love your channel! On your suggestion, I have added a few minutes of exercise to my morning routine - - yes, it helps hugely to wake me up and get me focused. I'm going to try that 25/5 trick - - it sounds like a winner.
Thanks a lot Sir, your videos change my habits and my life. There is a lot of positive habits for our lives from your videos. I wish you all the best ❤🙏
Love your channel! I try to start the day with something really creative. For a long time i wrote a poem after waking up. That was wonderful. Then over years i meditated to start my day. Now i am thinking about a change. I want to do something more expressive again. Singing could be an option or may be drawing something small to welcome every new day.
Hey, Aki-chan! Hello again from America! Your minimalism inspires and somewhat informs my own, so I will definitely be incorporating some of these habits! Thank you for your uploads!
These are my habits as well that I’m trying to perfect. However, it is so hard for me to wake up early as I’m a night owl. Staying up late is more natural for me.
Hi Aki-san, I confirm that the Pomodoro method was effective for me last year when I was completing my Master's degree in French as a Foreign Language while working simultaneously. Thank you for posting positive video. Take care! ❤🥰🌻
Hi, Aki! Thank you for all great videos. I am interested in minimalism and Japanese culture and your videos are really helpful. Also, you inspired me to wake up earlier, do morning workout and dring matcha. 😊 All the best and greetings from Serbia.
Hi Aki, i really love watching your videos.. it reminds me my late grandmother shes a japanese. Hope to see more inspiring videos from you. Thank you☺️
What a wonderful teacher you would be .. wish I had a teacher like you in my school …. I wish all teachers in India are as dedicated as you ….. My best wishes for your success and happiness always..👏🏾👏🏾👌🏻👌🏻
Já disse que amo o fato que tu te preocupa em ter respaldo científico nos assuntos, Aki? Eu amo isso, é um diferencial enorme mesmo que seja num vídeo de 'experimento pessoal'. Obrigada 💖
you are a brilliant person, a great you tuber, an interesting Japanese, but i just like to see more videos about your school life, teaching methods, etc.
So great advice! Super video, like Superman! 🙆 Wow. And for years, Eastern philosophy and ethics are really inspiring me for the last 10years!One great habit that I have is to do ALL my spiritual practices in the morning, so I have a whole day to be able to be flexible. In the evening before sleep, I do only one short practice.
You have more wisdom to offer in your 20s than I have accumulated at 45. Your videos are helpful. Thank you.
I wake up at 4 am and go to my studio and paint. I stay there for 4 hours, this enables me to get a lot done. Then I drink tea and go out iny garden and do an hour or so outside working in the fresh air

All the items I have in my home have their own home, I feel at ease knowing exactly where they go 🌱✌🏼
I wake at up 5am every day. And drink 4 glassess of water. It helps me.
I will start my minimalism again .focus on what i need ,and not what i want

Thank you so much! I'm surprised you wake up at 4!! Actually, now I'm trying to!!
@@SamuraiMatcha meditation and yoga helps me but the reason why I am able to wake up at 4 is because I sleep early. Love from India🙏
Inspiring.
Amazing and awesome video
morning meditation might be something good to add on
When there is a task that get me anxious in front of me I write a sort of script of the task and the way I'll try to face it.
I always allow myself playtime, in my case painting, drawing, art journalling. I have mobility issues so moving presents lots of difficulty, it is probable that your runs/walks do the same for you. I find this helps my mind freewheel, expand and rest at the same time. Then one day a week I have a longer play date. I also write my morning pages, see The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron.

I usually paint over the pages when I have finished the book. This saves the paper and means that they are no longer readable. Thank you for your videos.
Would also love to see a Japanese minimalist’s approach to cycling and cycle maintenance!
sure!!
I live alone and recently stopped using the dishwasher. I began washing, drying and putting away the dishes after meals. It slows me down, makes my movements efficient, gives me time to think, and keeps me on my feet (and off the sofa). Thanks for all of the good advice!
I love your room, it makes me happy every time i see it in your videos🥰
I'm in complete awe of this. I read a book with a similar message, and it was astonishing. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
I love making to-do lists as well and I always put the last thing I did as the first item so I can cross the first one off right away 😊
I love how enthusiastic and positive your videos are, I appreciate your videos 🙏

I try to stretch in the mornings and have a few minutes of silent mindfulness and recognizing what I feel grateful for.
Thanks, I was just about to look up videos with tips on staying focused, nice timing 😀
항상 감사드립니다 always thank you sir

One more 1 item per day challenge, please! I love how you explain the multi-uses of things and it helps me to think more minimally
If I move to another house! I will!!
Hi I would love for you to meet my daughter she is in her 20’s and also a teacher. I will be visiting Japan next year .
I will try to follow your productive habbits. You are so right. Already I feel somehow better and strong🙏🏻☀️

lol
very informative 🥰

The only habit I can add to this is daily meditation. I can’t say enough about how this has improved my life over the years.
I felt so productive while watching your video🤍🐰 and I'm lying in the bed. and it's 12pm rn :)
I have been loving the videos Aki, I'm in the middle of my exams and will try the 25min - 5min method right now!
It's nice to meet you through this channel.i am grateful for your videos it changes my thinking ☺️ thank you so much 🙏.

Great fan of this channel! So peaceful and full of optimism!
Thanks for the video!
Thank you for making these videos! Recently, I have been getting up early and I have noticed that I can do much more in the morning. It makes me less stressed and less tired later in the day.
I am grateful for your channel. I find your positive attitude and pleasant demeanor encouraging. You have my utmost respect. Thank you so much.
I love your channel! On your suggestion, I have added a few minutes of exercise to my morning routine - - yes, it helps hugely to wake me up and get me focused. I'm going to try that 25/5 trick - - it sounds like a winner.
Hola Aki te saludo desde México, me inspiras a eficientar mis actividades diarias. Me gusta mucho tu canal
Thanks a lot Sir, your videos change my habits and my life. There is a lot of positive habits for our lives from your videos. I wish you all the best ❤🙏
I wake up at 3:00 in the morning to do household chores 🤣
Hi Aki, if you wake up at five, what time do you usually go to sleep? Also your evening routine would be nice to see. Great video as always.
Around 9 pm;-D For sure!!
Love your channel!
I try to start the day with something really creative. For a long time i wrote a poem after waking up. That was wonderful. Then over years i meditated to start my day. Now i am thinking about a change. I want to do something more expressive again. Singing could be an option or may be drawing something small to welcome every new day.
Very helpful video! This is exactly what I needed to see today!
I am grateful I found this channel, keep up your good work!
Excellent and wonderful video about traditional and modern Japan and Japanese life. Thank you
My habits used to be on point. I need to get back into that.
2glasses of warm water in the morning and helps me a lot
Hey, Aki-chan! Hello again from America! Your minimalism inspires and somewhat informs my own, so I will definitely be incorporating some of these habits! Thank you for your uploads!
Simply great! Thank you so much for these wisdom drops. I will add meditation to the daily routine :)
These are my habits as well that I’m trying to perfect. However, it is so hard for me to wake up early as I’m a night owl. Staying up late is more natural for me.
Hi Aki-san, I confirm that the Pomodoro method was effective for me last year when I was completing my Master's degree in French as a Foreign Language while working simultaneously. Thank you for posting positive video. Take care! ❤🥰🌻
Hi, Aki!
Thank you for all great videos. I am interested in minimalism and Japanese culture and your videos are really helpful. Also, you inspired me to wake up earlier, do morning workout and dring matcha. 😊
All the best and greetings from Serbia.
Really enjoyed your video. thank you
Enjoy your sharing as always! Thanks for making these vids, truly inspirational!
Hi Aki, i really love watching your videos.. it reminds me my late grandmother shes a japanese. Hope to see more inspiring videos from you. Thank you☺️
What a wonderful teacher you would be .. wish I had a teacher like you in my school …. I wish all teachers in India are as dedicated as you ….. My best wishes for your success and happiness always..👏🏾👏🏾👌🏻👌🏻
Greatly appreciated your video ..respect from London .
I hear “a toodle” list! I LOVE it!
Love all your videos - so calming & precise. Aiming to add in typing practice & pomodoro method into my daily routine. Keep the videos coming!
The HGL idea for journal entries is great!
Your HGL journal method is awesome! I do something very similar, but instead it is a Highlight, Low, and God moment. It's a game changer!
Já disse que amo o fato que tu te preocupa em ter respaldo científico nos assuntos, Aki? Eu amo isso, é um diferencial enorme mesmo que seja num vídeo de 'experimento pessoal'. Obrigada 💖
you are a brilliant person, a great you tuber, an interesting Japanese, but i just like to see more videos about your school life, teaching methods, etc.
thank you...your videos are very inspiring to me....new habits & new life & new world
So great advice! Super video, like Superman!
🙆 Wow. And for years, Eastern philosophy and ethics are really inspiring me for the last 10years!One great habit that I have is to do ALL my spiritual practices in the morning, so I have a whole day to be able to be flexible. In the evening before sleep, I do only one short practice.
I love your videos! I starting drinking matcha every morning and making it a part of my daily routine. :)
