The moment i saw your video.. I ran to washroom to watch a video.. As its my office hours.. Lol

[@simonkunju]

Hi, Im diagnosed with severe anxiety and depression. I was thinking of ending my life. But your videos make me feel like I want to live my life. Thank you so much for all the positivity. Im gonna start minimalism very soon. I watch your videos whenever im extremely anxious and sad. I found it very soothing. I cant thank you enough

Dear Sadia, Your videos are always so nurturing, thoughtful, and beautifully filmed. I always feel that I have received a warm hug from a loved one after watching your videos. Thank you for inviting us into this world of peace and loving-kindness. I am in! Love from Canada!

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank you for the kind words, Holly! You're too sweet! 💗

[@crystaljones1747]

Holly, You're absolutely right...I feel the same exact way when I watch Sadia's videos...They're truly a warm hug and reminder that WE MATTER and HOW WE LIVE MATTER and once we realize that, it spills out positively to everyone else and everything else we encounter EVERY SINGLE TIME...Simple but sooo #BRILLIANT...She is definitely on my list of #SHEROS next to my Mom, Joanna Gaines, Michelle Obama, Oprah, and countless other women known and unknown....LoL....#WeAreAllInThisTogether ✨🙅🏽‍♀️✨

[@TheTastyVegan]

Agreed with everything! Specially how beautifully they are filmed. As youtubers ourselves, we aspire to get this professional look in our recipe videos too!😍

[@Sleepingincursive]

I know exactly what you mean! I always get this really beautifully calm feeling after listening, and that’s something for a workaholic who’s always on the go 😂

[@satishlawate4103]

Hello nice video

[@Pathologymadesimple]

Last night I felt so depressed and stressed of the life that has constant pressure, but then I decided to get out with my dog and lied on the ground and started looking at the sky- then magic happened , I felt mentally recharged. I miss nature so much. City life is exhausting

[@tabithasuzuma]

Varsha Scooby I agree. I live in London and hate it! Really miss the peace of the countryside. Can’t wait till it’s warmer here and easier to go outside for long periods. I too find that my daily walks in the park with my dog are the most peaceful and easiest ways to recharge. 😊

[@Pathologymadesimple]

[@bianka94825]

Same.. I live in crazy Budapest😢so depressed and stressed people and a rat race constantly. Noise, dirty air, traffic jams.. Ugh I want to leave

[@aveaillium8754]

True. NYC chokes me up sometimes. That's why every 3 months, I just go for hiking or camping or just anywhere closer to Mother Earth. Helps me connect a lot.♡

[@RoxxiRockstar]

Same here. I live in downtown Baltimore and in the winter months, don't get out much. I'm glad you were able to mentally recharge. I need to find a way to slow down and do that.

[@jeannetteshealthyover50]

This video arrived at the right time for me as I was recently asking myself “why are we all doing the stuff we do, rushing around, getting more, doing more...for what?” Yes, we need to stop, be grateful, and tune in with our senses, and suddenly things come into focus. Recipe request for that cauliflower dish please! Thank you for the video, hugs from snowy Upstate NY ❤️

It's currently grey and rainy and I'm sipping some homemade celery spinach soup and watching you. aI hardly ever leave comments BUT I need to let you know how much your presence is appreciated. Your videos are amazing which is an understatement... the quality editing, content and your soothing (hoarse now hehe) voice...wishing you a speedy recovery so you can continue to bless us with these incredible videos. Thanks so much Sadiya!

[@PickUpLimes]

Thanks so much, Chelsea, I appreciate that you took the time to share your lovely and kind words ❤

[@nirajapullagoru8254]

Sadia, I used to feel so depressed all the time and your videos make me wanna get off my lazy butt, diffuse my grief bubble and just start living my life. I love your videos and they are very inspiring. It's crazy how you make us viewers feel from just your voice. Thank you for being you. And continue your great work. Love all the way from India.

[@TheGroovyGuitarDude]

This is EXACTLY what I needed today. Time to reset! Thank you so much Sadia 😌🙌🏽 Also, LOVE The Alchemist as well, I think I’ll give it a re-read this week ☺️

[@kata2180]

I've been feeling sick for the past couple of days and from day one I knew it meant I should slow down. Today I finally took a day off at work, just one, made myself a tasty lunch, a big mug of herb tea, and now that I watched this video, I decided to call my grandma (which I've been putting off for months). I'm already feeling so much better ❤️ Thank you Sadia, you are like a loving, caring friend to all of us. Like a wise sister that reminds us, as gently as possible, what's good for us.. and tells us exactly what we need to hear when we need to hear it. Please keep doing what you're doing, the world needs kind souls like you ❤️

[@champ2152]

These two things - 1. You are so ADORABLE. 2. You are very intelligent and thought provoking girl. Tons of love! ❤️

[@leaha8602]

Sadia, this video has changed my life. I have mild ADHD, and learning to slow down has made me a new person. I have never been happier and more content in my life! This is my second time watching this video just to remind me to stay present. Thank you

[@riddhiagrawal2533]

I've read 'The Alchemist' and it's amazing! When i was in my 9th grade, i was stressed out and the book helped me to relax and just enjoy the time i feel is disappearing.

[@ruthcorson4904]

Sadia, this couldn’t come at a better time. I just began learning about the Sabbath. Though I’m not Seventh Day Adventist nor Jewish, I wanted to learn about this practice and how I can incorporate this tradition/law into my own life. I forced myself to pick one day a week where I would do nothing but rest and worship. I prepare my meal prepping and cleaning the house the day before, and then running any errands the days prior, if possible. On sabbath, I enjoy my food slowly (if I’ve meal prepped it) or enjoy cooking it slowly as you’ve done in this video. I worship by meditating, reading, painting, and listening. I keep my phone and TV off. Instead of watching TV, I’ve been writing my own little stories that I have daydreamt while trying to extend my sleep-in session a bit further. It’s been so lovely. This day of rest and worship has been so rewarding, relaxing, and fulfilling. I feel like a different person the rest of the week and I would encourage others to try it, too! It was during this time I also finished up “The Alchemist” :) Thank you so much for these videos. Each time you upload, I sit down with coffee or tea and enjoy the video on my couch with my dog or husband. Your videos have a way of making me feel so relaxed and inspired to make practical changes in my own life. Thank you ❤️ and feel better soon!

[@lisabond348]

Thank you for just being you! I hope you continue to feel better. The alchemist is a great book!!

[@laurenf9361]

Sadia, I think I saw it posted in a comment below already, but your description about the narrator of the alchemist being a calming voice for you, is that of yours for me (even with a cold). I truly get so much joy out of your videos and your blog page. I feel as though I’m able to slow down and settle in to a more mindful evening compared to my typical, when you have uploaded a new video. Thank you.

[@sarahsmith9064]

You have no idea how much I needed this right now! As usual your timing is perfect. What a wonderful reminder to slow down, tune into and be grateful for each moment. Thank you Sadia and hope you are back to full health soon xx

[@pamncheese]

I stumbled upon your channel last week and I cannot stop watching your videos. They’re so heartwarming and refreshing. I have recently started eating plant based and am on a journey to heal my body and become a healthier, peaceful and happier human and your videos have been so inspirational. Your recipes are so delicious and easy to make. Thank you for sharing your light and gifting us with your love and knowledge. ❤️

[@sharyn4271]

I've heard of The Alchemist for years but upon your suggestion, have just now finished listening to it. Oh my goodness, what a treasure! So many times I was moved to tears at the knowing that was aroused in my soul, and by the end when Santiago arrived at the pyramids, the tears were streaming down my face. Thank you, Sadia.

[@giseleg929]

Hi Sadia, I hope you feel better soon! What a beautiful message on a busy Monday! I am a PhD student and constantly feeling out of time and energy. I always felt I don't have time to exercise. I used to have cup of coffee when tired but felt awful afterward. Until I did a 7-day exercise challenge for myself last December. I find myself more energetic than ever. Now I really take my time to go to the gym instead of sipping coffee. And it works wonders! Nowadays it is hard for me to skip workout since I either bike to school or go to the gym every day. Taking time for myself to exercise is my kind of "slow living". And it helps live a more efficient life.

[@kirillhauge5474]

Dang the music, the aesthetic, it’s so calming! Definitely going to implement those pints!

[@joyofdigitalpainting8909]

Yes! This is perfect for me. I have three jobs- high school teacher, personal trainer, and group exercise instructor. I love what I do but I am addicted to being productive. Well, I’ve recently come down with mono and have been bedridden for 6 days. While it’s miserable, I am taking it as a blessing in disguise and a much needed break.

Love this! Getting over a cold myself. Sometimes our bodies just tell us "hey it's time to take it slower for a bit ok?"...and we ignore it... and then it forces us to take the break we needed after all. Hope you feel better soon! Boiled ginger tea with honey and lemon helped me a ton.

[@villageskills]

Great video madam, I will try to follow 7 days of slow living.

[@MidnightLibrarian88]

Hi Sadia! Firstly, hope you're feeling better and recovering from your cold. Secondly, The Alchemist is absolutely my favorite book! Thank you for posting such a great reminder on the importance of slowing down. My stomach has been uneasy the last 2 days, which I attribute greatly to the stress from taking on way too much and trying to do so too quickly. Taking deep square breaths and being mindful certainly has helped, so thank you for making this video. As always, hope you continue to get better and l look forward to the next video. Take care, Sadia!

[@lyndreemalang6302]

Hello, Sadia. Hope you recover fully soon. I was down with the flu the past weeks and it was indeed a test of patience to simply sit it out--rest, sleep, eat, and repeat. At first I was irritated with being sick, and even to myself for not having taken a bit more care but looking back, I did all I could to stay well amidst the busyness of the holidays. It’s just the way it is. I live in a tropical country and this time of the year, the weather is cooler than usual. Again, thank you for sharing another beautiful video. That yoga shot with a snowing background is genius. It looks so calming. All the best!

[@Grace-sc5mm]

this made my Monday the best! thank you so much, Sadia!

[@VoiceTalk52]

I slow down by taking my baby in my arms, observe how they laugh and smile, try to memorize it. Kiss their soft little necks, take in the scent of their skin. It’s beautiful and incredibly healing. I think incorporating all senses when you’re relaxing and enjoying the moment is incredible.

[@littleone2958]

Oh Sadia, the video is made with so much care and love! ❤️ They creat such a warm atmosphere and spark joy wherevern I am! 🙌🏻 By the way, you should really check out 'The little book of Hygge' by Mike Wiking... it really changed the way I thought about living a happy, secure and fulfilled life! 📖

You're a gift to the world, Sadia. Your videos are this comforting mix of old and new information, mixed with inner peace and always with a new, gentler approach. Thank you. I'm on the journey on being my best self and living my most wholesome, best life. I have gigantic dreams and these days I was met with a lot of harsh criticism ("you shouldnt even start" "you wont make it") and I felt really overwhelmed and really sad. This is not something I could just change, these dreams...they are me. This criticism made me feel like, it's not okay to be me, its not possible being happy and successfull being me. That was yesterday and today I listened to a podcast by brendon burchard and he said something along the lines off, that he wishes we would double down on doing good, on contributing. My dreams all revolve around contributing and being on of the many voices for positivity, in my case positivity after sexual abuse and trauma. I got severely abused for about 10 years, I am 24 now and I am happier, more fulfilled than many I know. It's possible and I want to be a voice for that. You gave me inspiration for a crucial part of my life, again, my overall inner peace and wellness. Again thank you so much!
