During the pandemic we worked from home and I realised how happy I am for that. To be able to spend time with my old kitties , to not waste 3h on the metro each day just to get home and have little time to do everything that needs to be done. WFH is really amazing. Even when we have so much work to do I can still put a load of clothes in my lunch , put them in the dryer on a short break, and between meetings, i can quickly feed the kitties and vacuum. When they asked us to come back to the office I declined . I found another amazing job , that does pay a little less . But the added benefit of being home and not having wasted time on the commute is priceless for me.

I was a facilities manager and the people management industry has known for years that letting people WFH on their own schedule leads to happier, more productive employees. Any employer who tells you otherwise is lying, and needing to justify their high corporate rent costs.

I was recently asked to take on more responsibility at work (I’m a teacher) I would be given no time and no extra money for doing it, so the decision to say NO was an easy one to make. To be honest, even if they had offended me incentives, I’d have turned them down. I don’t need the pressure.

Due to Covid, I lost my job of 31 years. It ended up being a great thing as the job changed over time and became very difficult and very stressful to keep up with the workload and I developed digestion and insomnia issues because of the stress. My husband is older than me and had already been retired so I decided to retire with him and I don’t regret it for a second and I’m so grateful I had the option. We are not rich so we live on a budget which is easy to stick to if you are a mindful consumer and don’t need to have the latest and greatest. We drive older cars and our house is not exactly updated to the latest interiors but we don’t mind :). Surprisingly, when I retired at 50, friends and family were always saying…” Don’t you get bored”? and to that I say NO. I can always find something to do. I work out, walk my dog, and there is always something to clean in the house. It was the best thing I could do for myself. Glad you are able to decrease stress as well in your daily life :)

My early retirement, even with the sacrifices it has entailed (leaving my son and family and moving to the other side of the world) has been the best thing I've ever done. Like you, sometimes I struggle with sleep (I have restless legs syndrome), and being able to wake up naturally after a rough night is absolutely wonderful. Honestly though, not working is so great. 😊

At 65 I am now retired from my career as a registered nurse. It was a rewarding yet fast paced and stressful job. I actually retired 5 years ago and that was due to a severe injury. During my career I had to develop techniques to destress and self care. I learned if I said “no” it was okay. I learned to leave my work at the hospital and do little things for myself. Lunch with friends, a manicure or facial, perhaps a massage, listening to healing music, scented candles, yoga. Whatever I did it was something I loved. It made me calmer, happy and helped me to be an even better nurse. I would also share little self help tips with my patients. Self care and doing things for oneself isn’t being self centered, it is merely bringing you to a place of joy. That happiness is contagious. I too suffer from IBS and certainly wouldn’t wish that on anyone either. More easily managed with a healthy lifestyle. Thank you for another great Vlog.

My friend had IBS and found a university website that guided her through an elimination diet where she found her main trigger foods, which vary person to person (hers were onions, soft cheeses and a couple of other key ones). And she discovered that if she had low stress and good sleep, her trigger foods weren't as much of a trigger (this is also how migraines work). It's like IBS or migraine has a sensitivity capacity: bad nights sleep, fills cup to 1/4. Stressful week, adds 1/4. Eat greasy meal with onion, adds 1/2 BOOM . But if you're well slept, low stress, and you eat the same meal (or a smaller portion), no reaction. Then you doubt it's a trigger. Which is why food triggers are hard to figure out.

I have had IBS for 40 years and 15 year's ago started suffering with migraines. I only recently learnt of the link between the two and started a fodmap diet to identify triggers. Dark chocolate, hard cheese, pasta, bread and sauerkraut were the main one's but as you say if I am well rested and have my stress under control I can tolerate them in small amounts, all except dark chocolate which is a hairline trigger. I hope this information becomes more available to fellow sufferers and they are saved from years of suffering.

The best advice I got for better sleep was to stop looking at my laptop and phone at least one hour before bedtime. It really helps with the quality of sleep. I now avoid alcohol after 9.00pm (unless its a very special occasion) I also quit Twitter and Instagram - that was so liberating and made me much happier. Thanks for sharing!

I feel you when you say the pandemic brought about the possibility to live your life better. I am a teacher at a secondary school and thus can't just leave and teach from home, but I enjoyed being able to spend so much time at home, with my kids (who were also being taught online) , with my husband at home-office. It was peaceful and I could focus on so many things that have got lost afterwards. Now we returned to the old routines at work and I often feel that I live outside of myself. Thanks for the video!

Such a joy to see your new video on the YT's homepage! I'm confirming most of the habits you've talked about here, especially quitting the job and not setting an alarm. The same effects for me, life-changing. It's a controversial point though to talk about with others, for me, because I know that the majority of people don't have this opportunity and therefore they can't relate, and it might create a disconnect or resentment. Which I understand I don't have control over. It's a process to train my brain to accept for what it is. I thank you for voicing it out in such a cozy manner!❤

Enjoyed this one Benita. I'm glad your move is working out. The one best thing I can do for my wellbeing is have a life where I can wake naturally. I've done everything I can to arrange my circumstances so that I can sleep and wake on a regular pattern that suits my body without an alarm. It's more challenging when I have to travel or have other events happening that dictate when I need to wake, but those periods only confirm the benefits of my usual routine. It helps a lot during periods of insomnia to know that at least you can sleep later in the morning if you need to. It has always struck me as bizarre when people have moral positions on other people's sleep habits. The best thing any of us can do is know what our bodies and minds need, and supply that!

We are moving away from the touristy area of the beach in our condo of 6 years and moving to a neighborhood/single family home with a yard! So excited. Can’t wait to walk around the neighborhood. Thank you always for your videos. You inspire me! No excuses for not walking in SC.💕😊🏖️

I semi retired 2 years ago. I could have kept working but did the sums on my and my partner’s superannuation and because we had worked hard to eliminate debt it was possible to comfortably retire and work in my own business which is very part time. I have started doing surprising things and have lots of time for family and other interests and commitments. I have to watch the budget a bit more but that is no big deal the cost of freedom and agency.

Lately, I have been saying no to things and the weight of too much on the plate is lifting. Have a lovely two weeks, hej då

Great video again! I developed IBS working in Education where saying no is not possible. I still have IBS and have no time to work out. But the one daily habit I must do for better daily digestive health is taking psyllium. It's saved me the agony of IBS that has become, sadly, a normal part of my life. I can't wait until I retire and can look after my health.

Hi, Benita. I love this. Thank you for sharing so much from your lived experience, including with breast cancer. I smiled when you mentioned a nearby library as one of the things someone might want close to home--librarians everywhere thank you! I have a quick question: Do you know the type of plant on your windowsill near the end of tip two? As always, thank you for the great content. I love your videos every bit as much as I always (and still) loved your blog for all those years. -Jane

Dear Benita, I discovered your channel not so long ago and I really appreciate its inspiring content. It's what inspired me to do a major clean-up and decluttering of my home over the summer and I have to admit that not only did I enjoy it, but since then I've felt more in harmony with myself... I've even started to create my own personal jungle to bring even more peace and zen to my home. Since then my personal balance has greatly improved; thank you so much 😉 I'd like to know what brand your rocking chair is, because I find it both practical and beautiful. Keep on inspiring our daily lives. Have a lovely day 😊
