BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO MINIMALISM » inspiration to get started

[@PickUpLimes]

📲 Yay! Our Pick Up Limes app is finally here (1-week free trial!): bit.ly/PUL_app 🎉

[@robinharris4247]

My mom and dad grew up poor worked hard and had a lot of money in the bank when they died a nice house nice cars etc. after my mom died my dad was so sad and he looked around and said you work all your life to get stuff then you work to maintain your stuff and then in the end the stuff dosen't matter. THAT changed how I live my life I have no debt i only keep what i use and life is peaceful and we look for experiences. We moved to france and travel :) la vie est belle

[@PickUpLimes]

Beautiful story, Robin. I came to discover minimalism in a similar way - a story I hope to share at some point. but it's sad it takes experiences like that for us to realize it. Sending love ❤

[@aishagranger1391]

Robin Harris please share that story in your Q&A

[@marturquesa77]

Robin Harris Oh wow! I appreciate you shared this thanks!!!

[@karakerley4230]

Robin Harris I still remember my father telling me how we can't take anything or anyone with us when we leave this world. we were standing in our kitchen and he pointed out numerous things including the cat, his beer cooler, material objects etc etc. may not sound like a profound moment, but it was for me. I was probably 16. he also gave me a small box as a gift once and said I could fit my most valued things in that box for the rest of my life. didn't realize it at the time but now I see he intended that box to be empty. material objects are just things. our experiences and memories are what counts. I've had a difficult relationship with materialism on and off as I've gotten older, but I think I have finally realized the kind of freedom that comes with living simply.

[@phatcurvypinay]

I started minimizing my friends lol! no seriously, now I value relationships that give me joy, no matter how far apart from each other we are. No longer do I stress about being accepted in this new country (I just recently moved to the US a few years back. I am from the Philippines) but I cherish the ones that I had even though we are far apart. I give them time when they call, I value their messages, send them surprise cards every so often. That, brings me joy.

[@codyklaiss]

Diana Ragub Sad to hear you struggle to feel accepted here. Hope you can build some great new friendships ✌

[@phatcurvypinay]

Cody Klaiss itis really nothing bad or something. I am 35 and most women my age are already either running an empire or running around with kids. i have neither of those so I just dont have my niche yet. I'll get there but as for right now, im actually enjoying being with myself and my husband.

[@janeki7681]

Diana Ragub ....minimizing fren ....... yeh!!

[@nomadyesmad6773]

Diana Ragub Welcome to the US! Yes, life is too short to clutter your time as well as space! Don't waste time on people or things that stress you out. : )

[@satisfylife4288]

Diana Ragub I don't need to do that I have no friends........JESUS CRIST IM LONELY

[@SoCalledKaty]

Your videos are like a soul spa. 🍵

[@tonx93]

SoCalledKaty glad I'm not the only one thinking it. :)

[@aliceemarie2989]

its TRUE!! Didn't wanna like, cause it's got round beautiful 900')

[@phatcurvypinay]

your voice is soo soothing.

[@GymClubHouse]

her script writing for each episode is spot on without any useless filler or waste.

[@betts258]

but mostly, i appreciate ur calm ........

[@riasb]

i know right :')

[@LifewithGoldie]

betts258 omg same , her voice is literally so soothing

[@audreyb1269]

I was exactly thinking this. I found that video per chance, and I am impressed as how calm I feel after watching it! And it really made me feel like I could get into minimalism !

[@betts258]

her place is beeyootifully calm....my goal!

[@ivaroa]

her voice is so relaxing! she should do a podcast or read aloud poetry or something...

[@MommaFromScratch]

I just found you and your voice is so calming and inspiring! Simple and motivating, thank you

[@MsAnemoi]

just wanted to post the exact same thing.. just 3 years later :D

[@mujtabaahmadsalik435]

No doubt her voice is so calming.

[@cristianapereira3884]

You radiate good energy and calmness. I feel like you are light in person, and that is the only possible way I could describe you. I adore your videos and hope you always remain so joyful.

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank you so much for the beautiful comment, Cris ❤

[@tijanajd46]

I can't even begin to describe how much I enjoy your channel, topics that are exactly "my cup of tea", the editing and above all, your calm and positive personality. Keep doing what you do. You deserve millions of subscribers and I'm happy to see your audience has been growing during these last couple of days. Lots of love from Barcelona :)

[@PickUpLimes]

Such an up-lifting comment, Tijana. Thank you so much ❤ With love from the Netherlands :)

[@pawel9543]

yess, she deserves more than Gordon ramsay !! xD

[@dianapina2080]

In the past I was a very organized girl and I loved to clean. I notice a great change in my behavior when I got divorce after two years of marriage, I started to accumulate things, to buy more, to collect things from the trash of others, at some point my spaces were saturated of all kinds of things. Then I saw a documentary in which they commented how traumatic and shocking experiences of losses of some kind made us take strange behaviors and one of those was the tendency to accumulate to fill emotional voids. It took me time, but now I know that Minimalism is the answer, so will clean my spaces, my mind and my heart to take control of my life again... ;)

[@justinedragonfly3456]

Diana Piña Could you please share the title of that documentary? Thanks! :)

[@michellem.2367]

This is so true. You are depressed that's why you want to fill in on your emotions. In reality, if your are happy you want to do things that make you happy and use things that contribute to your happiness.

[@inesfernandez6124]

Okay I just clicked on the video but can we talk about how soothing you sound? The way you communicate with us!! Geez!!

[@leidistefanialambrini59]

In this world full of people who feel like they​'re critics, I am so glad to have found your chanel becuase you don't seem pretencious or unreal. In my journey to be a minimalistic, I hace found people who always says "you're not", "you don't know anything", or they always talk about a certain number of things or that everything has to be B&W, but you inspire people to be themselves and create their own concept about minimalism and that it is not about decorating b&w all your house but keeping and living whit all those things that make you feel happy. once again thank you so much for all your videos and tips, God bless you ❤

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank you so very much for the kind words, Leidi. I'm happy you've received the message this way. It's very true and I feel that way with many things: minimalism, a vegan/plant-based diet, work, travel, hobbies - always do it in the way that feels best to you. I don't mind labelling things because it acts as a guide, but the label shouldn't serve as a rule-book. Sending plenty of love ❤

[@nimu04]

+Pick Up Limes, I watched your vegan story back when I was discovering a plant-based diet. Your peaceful authenticity gave me the freedom to transition as my own self and about two months later I am fully plant-based making beautiful discoveries along the way and simply being happy.

[@nandhinilingam682]

I love how calm, peaceful and loving you are. The vibe you give off is incredibly soothing

[@coolwater644]

This is so interesting. I have been 'minimalising' for a few years to the point where I managed to move to Egypt. I only keep what I am using and love. I can Sea the Red Sea, the sunrise and sunsets. I have become more aware of everything. I made a balcony garden - I collect shells on the beach and make things. I do work but my work is flexible and online. I never knew there were other minimalists out there! It's great! I began My whole food plant based diet today too. (And I joined your mailing list). Thanks so much for your positive encouragement!

[@valeriemaldonado1758]

"You don't need to get rid of it." Thank you. A week ago I found your youtube channel, this led me to your website and Instagram. I needed a dose of inspiration and you provided it. Your content, dialogue and personality are a winning combination. So happy I'm here. I began decluttering about 5 years ago after saving things for twenty years. I haven't looked back. Living simply is empowering. Thanks for the tips!

[@kyleruempler1891]

Such a great outlook on minimalism. It's really minimizing stress (or things that create stress) rather than minimizing possessions. Usually they go hand in hand, but I'm glad you explained it the way you did :)

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank you, Kyle :)

[@ryleelindsay6519]

I woke up this morning wanting change. I pulled out a notebook from my bookshelf and I have been sitting in front of the computer screen watching videos that inspire me and taking notes along the way of things I truly find helpful. I love your videos and I am happy to say they were extremely helpful. Thank you !

[@Marginallist]

I'm new to your channel, but for the past few days, i totally enjoy how you look into minimalism. I follow many other minimalist KZbinrs, sadly I can't relate to most of their contents as I find them so "Extremist minimalists" but from the name of your Channel to the way you share tips, I can totally relate and literally practice it in my life. So thank you so much for being here and helping people like me take wiser steps on minimalism.

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank you of the very kind words, Aida ❤

[@traceyt4580]

I agree! Another fun channel is Messy Minimalist, she's not as far ahead in her journey but it's sure fun to watch

[@Marginallist]

Tracey T thank you for suggestion I will check on her channel for sure :)

[@annieheath986]

Tracey T I like her too. She is fun. Very easy to relate to.

[@HuiyingKoh]

My sentiments exactly. I've been looking around on KZbin regarding minimalism for quite a while and couldn't find the right channel that resonates my inner peace. Until a year ago I found Jenny Mustard and fell in love with her almost immediately! Her channel is equally soothing and friendly. I followed Jenny first for quite a some time and then later on KZbin recommended me Pick Up Lime. Now I love both of them! And I'm surprised to have found out that Pick Up Limes (I mean Sadia? Not sure how to spell her name) likes Jenny Mustard too! Both of them are definitely my spirit animals. ❤️

[@korenski9927]

Your voice and demeanor is so calming and sweet. Watching you makes me feel peaceful. I can tell you are a kind person.

[@traceyt4580]

I'm so happy to see young people embrace a less-is-more attitude, saving themselves decades of needless stress!

[@heloisahoneskomedeirosgarb9683]

You bring so much peace in your videos that I just found myself in minimalism. Because of you, not by any other youtuber or social media. Since I know myself, I always loved to declutter, but for my mother (who is an accumulator) I just liked to throw things away and not value the money she spent to buy it all. I grew up watching my mother buy lots of cheap things instead of an expensive thing, but good quality, and I've always been the opposite. I have always preferred to have one good bag than many bags of inferior quality. As everyone around me is not minimalistic, I thought I was different. Thanks to you I discovered the blameless side of getting rid of things and having few clothes, for example. thank you so much! I wait every minute for your videos. Lots of love xo

[@PickUpLimes]

Wow - thank you for this comment, Heloisa. I'm so happy you've found the videos helpful. Sending lots of love ❤ ~S

[@marusafakin]

I've just discovered your channel and it’s amazing. I love how you structure information and I really like you're so calm and focused. I'm also on a zero waste/minimalistic lifestyle path and it can be super challenging so finding videos like yours is so inspirational. Thank you

[@natalialenchuk1759]

That’s it, that’s what inspires me in your video and your whole philosophy - it’s your journey, make your rules, don’t listen to anybody, start slow - one doesn’t frequently hears this from guru of any kind. That’s why people love listening to your advice, at least that’s what I love here the most. Thank you for that, Sadia. Somehow, it’s that what I desperately need at the moment.

[@tyroneehealthfitness7842]

Minimalism is easy. Just declutter, get rid of excess and keep what you need/love. That's it, you don't even have to label yourself a minimalist. Just clear some space and organize.

[@ushira_dharmaratne]

Tyrone E 2 is such a minimalist, he doesn't even bother to "label" himself as a minimalist ! Rock On dude lol

[@xlovemeharder1667]

Ushira Dharmaratne I appreciate your positivity 💛

[@Thechangelingpnw]

I am a minimalist. I don't take it to extremes, but it's a work in progress! It definitely feels amazing to separate my feelings from my things and focus on what matters. Congrats on getting so many new subscribers, your videos are great!

[@333harrypotter]

I subscribed to you a few days ago, maybe no more than 10 and you had 6k subscribers. Now you have 25k!! That's unbelievable!

[@shilpashetty7457]

Tamara S same here, I subscribed when she was at 2k, it's amazing how fast her channel is growing 😊

[@PickUpLimes]

I agree - it's pretty cool that it's growing so fast! Happy you are both party of the community ❤

[@Dakota-Rose]

True amazing to see it grow fast. I was there with 6K I think. Checking back it's grown fast!

[@Budgetingpersonalfinance]

Well, now she has 50k subscribers :)

[@AL-zf2cm]

100k :O

[@moni.5752]

I have way too much stuff and don't know were to begin. It is overwhelming. But the thing that makes me continue is your videos. Minimalism seems so great. I know that I will never will get to that point you are but it reassures me that I can get rid of the stuff I have been accumulating over the time. Your videos make me feel secure. Saying that I can do it. And make my room nice, clean and definitely less cluttered. Thant you, Sadia.

[@kallistoindrani5689]

Slow and steady. God, I needed to hear that today. It's been a few bad days with self doubt and regret and I feel like slipping, thinking I'm just fooling myself with this whole 'new life plan'. I need to get back on track for sure. These tips were much needed, thank you.

[@PickUpLimes]

My pleasure, and so happy to hear this. Sorry you're having a tough time. But the day always proceeds the night, right? Hang in there and sending much love ❤

[@morganl2633]

Ugh you're wonderful. Thank you for being a kind, encouraging and non judgemental person. I appreciate you and the calm you're bringing into my life. Thank you.

[@augustaaglow1262]

I am a beginner minimalist!! Thank you for these Videos- God bless you!!

[@johnellharrington6693]

Augusta Aglow me too

[@aliciawasson8327]

I read the description box: I am a minimalist. Your videos are inspirational to me. I'm am little by little getting rid of stuff and can really feel the stress lifting. Thank you!

[@PickUpLimes]

Love it!! Thanks so much for the kind words, Alicia ❤

[@chloeanne1237]

I am so happy I found you! I love your advice and I have been watching all your videos and especially love the ones that pertain to food. I am going to be living on my own soon and those videos have been helpful in getting meal ideas that I can make myself.

[@PickUpLimes]

I'm so happy you found it too! Wishing you all the best on living on your own soon ❤

[@magherra]

I have been a minimalist for about a year and it had never felt better. I watched and followed several minimalist youtubers and yours pop up recently and I couldn't help thinking that your videos are really well done and your presentation is top notch because it speaks straight to the heart and you expressed ideas and concerns so well. keep it up!

[@PickUpLimes]

Thank so much, Beatrice :)

[@TatianaKurnosova]

Hi Sadia! Thank you so much for such a wonderful video, I've recently found your channel and I really enjoy it! All of your words and tips are so true! I'm a minimalist myself - I love being focused on my life and travel, not on the material things. But as you said, you don't have to be too extreme about it. Sometimes it's hard for me being "fully minimalist" ( I mean my mind sometimes whispers it to me) due to my job - I'm a fashion photographer, stylist and graphic designer. So, yes, - I have lots of things because of it: my camera & photographic equipment, make-up (sometimes I do it for the shoots), pencils and paints for drawing, basic clothing for styling models and etc. When I see all of these things, sometimes I get a little bit sad, because i want it to be more compact & take less things with me when I travel. But I realize that having all that is necessary for me, for my job, it doesn't make me less minimalist bor a bad person. Basically, what I'd like to say is that you've perfectly described the concept of minimalism. Thank you again and please stay such a kind and inspiring person ( I may not know you in a real life but I can see the positive energy you share). Lots of love

[@PickUpLimes]

Aw, Tatiana this was such a pleasure to read. Thank you so much for everything you shared. It can be hard in today's society; we all want so much to belong to a community or belief-system that's bigger than ourselves. So when we don't follow the "rules" we feel like we've failed... and my own experience with minimalism at times as been much like yours. But there's a much-needed freedom that comes from knowing we make up our own guidelines... the labels are just there to help guide us. So wishing you all the success with your fashion photography! And many thanks for the kind words ❤ Much love ~S

[@TatianaKurnosova]

Thank you so much too ❤

[@crystalc1ear]

Thank you for this video. Recently I have stopped buying unnecessary items and am trying to cut wastage. I found out that the happiness I get from material goods is at best temporary. I am now able to really enjoy things that were previously mundane, like eating, drinking and walking outside.

[@candise9058]

I've started to develop an interest in minimalism. I think I could benefit from this. I like your videos and the way you explain things and your tone of voice....so calming....keep up the excellent work!! I am planning on decluttering this weekend...slowly as you've quite rightly said....lol

[@PickUpLimes]

Wishing you all the success on this, Candise ❤ And thanks for the kind words :)

[@truuluvv]

I had a personal epiphany while watching this video today. I realized that two hobbies that used to bring me joy no longer give me joy. Now they only seem burdensome and obligatory. You have no idea how freeing it was. Just thinking about getting rid of my things connected to those hobbies gave me such an uplift. Thank you.

[@michelletaylor-gill7484]

Practise gratitude!

[@vashtidesigns1893]

I absolutely love ALL your videos (vegan, minimalism, etc) I agree that your calm and relaxing voice is so comforting. I could relate to the thrift shopping saturdays and that I always bite off more than I can chew so I will try and take it slow and steady. Thanks for the reminder

[@krystelmcpeake6634]

This week , i watched all of your videos! And you inspire me so much!

[@PickUpLimes]

Aw, I'm so honoured, Krystel ❤ Thank you!

[@TheJenedie]

I read the description box: I am a minimalist. I have just found your channel and I love it! You are so positive and calming.

[@itsanna5]

Just discovered your channel and I already love you! Such an inspiration!

[@PickUpLimes]

Aw, thanks so much Anna! ❤

[@katefullero9389]

I started crying. You and your lifestyle are like a balm to my hectic life.

[@marakixd6203]

I'm 17 and I'm the only minimalist in my family and all the rooms in my house are full and mine is pretty much empty 😂 my parents are hoarders and my brother is normal

[@DansonforJoy]

Love your tip about expressing gratitude AS you experience the feeling. SO MANY TIMES every day, I'll find myself saying, "Thank You, Lord," in my heart or even out loud, as I acknowledge the blessings God gives me - whether it's the sight of my toddler sleeping peacefully, or the warmth of sunshine streaming through the window. :)

[@PickUpLimes]

Beautiful ❤

[@greengiraffe1555]

Thank you, you are very inspiring, I think I have been very hard on myself when I try but don't succeed.......I'm not going to hurry any more, just do as feels right for me. X

[@biancavieira2449]

Hi Sadia. Just wanted to let you know how refreshing your videos are to me. I follow a bunch of people on KZbin on a variety of themes, but you are the only one I actually give thumbs up in every video. I truly think the genuine way you speak about what you share makes these few minutes delightful to watch. Thank you for making my afternoons less poop-sandwich like. Xoxo

[@MinvlyMusic]

I would love to call Myself a minimalism.... but I come from a family (and a culture I might say) of hoarding... and I have tried hard to throw away and throw away but I always feel like it's never enough and that I still have more things than the number I can handle...... it kind of makes me sad.... I even tried konmari method I've to say that I've failed. Please help

[@PickUpLimes]

I really think our words are powerful. Start to say you can and will, and it will happen. It sounds silly, and you might not even believe yourself when you say it... but eventually you will. Another thing I always mention is: do what feels best to you. Don't try to do everything at once if that makes you panic. Pick one area, maybe starting with the easiest first, and minimize there if you can. Take breaks in between so you can make sure it stays that way (decluttered), before trying to minimize another area. Hope this helps. Good luck! ❤

[@claudiagutierrez6336]

It has taken me about a couple of years to really get to minimalism...first my massive shoe collection went. Then I actually watched a few videos on minimalism....my closet serves me well and all the items fit me great. I am now using one plastic bin to change out my seasonal items. It feels great! Although it took time for me, learning some of these tips are great!

[@ebayyyyy]

May I just say that that whole thing about not trying to force things upon others because it will push them away can be applied to SOOOO many more things than just minimalism. I just wish more people would realiz it. :/

[@PickUpLimes]

Amen!

[@afafrabehi3893]

Hi Sadia, just want to say THANK YOU! I owe you and Sarah Therese big time for changing my whole perspective towards minimalism. I am a shoppoholic, have been so for the past five years or so and it completely destroyed my finances. watching your videos inspired me to start, slowly but surely.

[@justbusydreaming]

OHMGGG I WAS LITERALLY LOOKING FOR A VIDEO LIKE THIS A FEW DAYS AGO

[@PickUpLimes]

So happy you found it, Aisha :)

[@ayaelmekawy3038]

Sadia! I love what you do. You're my great source of inspiration for quite a while now. I started my minimalism journey again after I quit it for sometime. I'm taking baby steps in Veganism and I'm getting myself ready to start blogging. After some extreme life changes, I'm taking my life back and whenever I run out of motivation I jump into your channel. I love your recipes and I love how you talk quietly not in a rush like other you-tubers, looking fabulous naturally. I want to share my gratitude to you and your inspiration.

[@chouayang6372]

Your voice makes me feel so Zen

[@nn-ju3vq]

i started crying when u say gratitude. my kitten died today and now i'm trying to feel grateful bcs i could meet my kitten although i feel really really sad rn. always be grateful and positive in all things

[@caelointheclouds]

I totally found inspiration in your video !! You have a new subscriber!! Thank you!!

[@PickUpLimes]

Happy to read this, Caelo :)

[@jordanjohnston3958]

I can tell how successful this is for you because even in your speech you practice minimalism - you say exactly what needs to be said with total concision, and it is so nice to listen to.

Thanks, Jinal! And welcome to the PUL community! :)

Thank u for sharing ur video .. I’ve started with minimalism this week .. following ur list .. I started with all bags first.. and seriously after getting rid of the unwanted ones .. I actually had one entire wardrobe empty .. .. I also did donate few of them .. this not only helped to clear clutter from my home .. but also from my mind .. God bless u !!

[@REDcilipadi]

Thank you for making another wonderful video, unpretentious, calming, relatable and achievable. Also, would appreciate if you could share with us on how you keep your long hair so healthy?

Thanks so much for the lovely comment, Suzanne. And this is certainly a common question - will make a video on it soon, I hope :)

[@nephilae8722]

Pick Up Limes Yes, please!

[@victoriaporsiempre]

Since i started to live by my own in a flat, i’m doing my best to live minimalistic, I won’t lie, is not easy at the beginning but i’m in the process. My main reason: when i was a child we used to move out a lot since we didn’t have a house, every time we had to carry so many stuff, it was exhausting and stressful, I promised myself that if i ever have the chance to have my own place, I would only take the necessary with me so i can feel free to move out easily

[@khadrahayes3250]

I have found inspirations in your videos! New subscriber from London 🇬🇧 Thank you 😊❤️

I have just stumbled on your channel. May I say that you have such a calm voice and your smile is so welcoming. What stands out in your videos I have seen so far is that your are not trying to get people to copy you but to make our own choices based on some helpful tips you have already journey. Thanks so much. You're blessed

[@marinjayden]

*Hey fellow minimalist! Love your channel!

[@Marie-md5yj]

I have realised I feel really stressed when im surrounded by a lot of stuff. I'm moving out in a week so this is a great opportunity to declutter&transition to a more minimanist life style.

[@silviatrigoyanti1963]

When u tried to get rid of smthin', then ur mom pick it up and bring it back in the home...🤭🤭

[@halimasumayya9890]

Haha

[@eddieortiz3936]

Love your videos so much. When I started to watch you last year I desired to be more minimal, eat better and be more conscious of what I do and why I do it. But I wasn’t quite ready. I’ve been discouraged and have felt like “oh well this is who I am”. (Messy, disorganized, indulger of all things and a bad steward) but today I can say that with the help of God, my friends, and your (and a couple other people’s) videos I’m making amazing progress. I feel incredible! It took going to LA for summer vacay and only having what was in my Air bnb and what was in my carry-on to realize and I did just fine without all that junk. I survived! lol Getting ready was a breeze, I was more productive and was able to focus on making memories and being more present! That changed everything and now I’m ruthlessly decluttering before I move in 2 weeks and it’s going great! Just wanted to say thank you, hope you’re doing well! And keep the videos coming! Hugs from Delaware, USA! 💖

[@roshnirrr7049]

I am literally get inspired from you ! Step 2 checked 💪

[@JennyOng]

Hi, PUL! I’ve always wanted to be a minimalist since 2013 but then go back to my old ways and then go back to being a minimalist and then on to my old ways again of consuming, consuming, consuming. But now, I’m really going to stick with it this time and that is because of you, PUL and 5 other minimalist vloggers here on KZbin. And I know that I will succeed this time because I planned everything from the very start. My minimalism journey started with my skin care because I really wanted to only use products that don’t contain harsh chemicals. And I hate travelling with a big bag of toiletries. I wanted to find an all-in-one product that cleans my hair, body, face and private parts. Also an all-in-one product that moisturizes my hair, body, hands, face and private parts. And in the past, I tried that no-poo trend and it was terrible! But now I know the secret! I haven’t shampooed my hair for 3 days now and it just really depends on what you eat. Before, if I don’t shampoo, I’ll get dandruff all over my scalp. But now that I’m on this diet (I call it the “Jenny Ong Berdos diet”), I don’t have dry and itchy scalp anymore. That’s why my minimalism journey is way easier this time around. I’m so happy and excited for my newly-launched KZbin channel which I literally just posted my first video into, because I want to share my experience and my journey with everyone. Thank you so much, PUL! Please check out how I did on my first try and let me know what you think. Thanks, again! :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2PXk6OgpaaYsKM

Can I just say you're gorgeous❤️ You remind me of Ileana D'cruz! (Bollywood actress)

[@ethnicsupply5250]

actually...but i guess this girl has her own charm n vibes tat touches u.

[@siyasuryawanshi3627]

She's a lot more naturally prettier than Ileana D'Cruz IMO

[@GymClubHouse]

film stars have an unlimited budget so to speak to maintain their looks from all angles - surgery, fillers, nutritionists and trainers, spa treatments, etc. for a common person to achieve that is far more difficult. it can be done but common people have stressful lives with less disposable time and income. sadia is in her 30s and to maintain the body she had as a teenager is the best thing she has done for her looks and gratitude as she says in the video.

[@pooshalok502]

I sometimes even find her looks as that of Dia Mirza❤️

[@Kuervita77]

I just did my WHY list, and now every time things seem overwhelming, stressful or I feel like going back to my old habits, I look at that list of WHYs and it puts everything back into perspective. Thank you! New subbie, I love your channel. :)

Wow ! Look at the number of the subscribers! I am so happy that this channel got popular! When I was subscribing the channel, the number was 6k. Sadia~ you deserve it. ^^ And once again, thanks for the wonderful video! :)

I am a mimilist by nature and only discovered after a while the money I had saved, this went on for most of my life and people always saying where do you get the money from to travel and in the end I got tired of having to explain!! I look at goods in shops etc but never induced to purchase anything, not really interested in material things, I take my hat off to everyone that is not materialistic, believe me it saves money and actually improves your lifestyle the rewards are enormous for me anyway ps these videos are very inspiring I really enjoy them!!

[@4familytides]

thanks for the video. one question I'm new so I may not know but where did you come up with the idea of pick up limes name? its catchy.

[@PickUpLimes]

Oh so happy to hear that! Yes I did come up with it :)

[@jackmariez]

sdelizabeth Pick up limes: When you approach someone you like and starts dropping limes and you try to pick them up but the limes keep slipping out of your hands and you look ridiculous. After a moment you give up, look at your crush and say "I'm really bad a pick-up limes."

I have watched countless videos on minimalism because I am really interested in it and even just watching this made me feel better and more relaxed

[@hopesandler1142]

"I read the description box: I am a minimalist."

[@PickUpLimes]

Yes!! Love it, Hope! ❤

[@marabanara]

I read the description box. :) I joined for your nutrition videos, but I love minimalism also, so this is perfect. In the process of paring down household things. My own personal belongings are few and well loved. I've un-followed social media pages, and I no longer spend free time in shopping centres/malls. They make me feel unhappy and unsatisfied. I've taken up running and audio books/podcasts. This is great!

[@LuchoGarram]

hellooooooo! i'm new to your channel... i love it! So I want to share with you how i got here... i'm starting my youtube channel.. I'm from Mexico... and uploaded a couple minimalism videos these past weeks... then yesterday youtube suggested me your channel.. and now i'm hooked a lot of the things you say here *resonate* with what i think about being a minimalist... of course i've subscribed and gave you 👍👍👍👍 cheers.. and love and light!

[@mandmgirlHeidiK]

I started becoming a minimalist in January and got rid of 9 bags of clothes and went from 32 short sleeves to 16 short sleeves.So i am enjoying your videos.I subscribe to your channel.

[@aimiamite3758]

It doesn’t work WHEN you have asian parents 🙃

[@vikassm]

True that!! But the Japanese? Buddhists? Kung-fu monks? Hindu monks? Minimalism was kinda "invented" in Asia two thousand years ago as a lifestyle choice :) We've come far from all that, and not in a good way!

[@anjalisahu358]

True! My Ma bring more stuff when i throw some out.

[@shanthimoola8963]

[@montserratpalaciosvillagra7253]

Sadia , you are an inspiration to me. Thank you for your words and how you make it seem possible. I already call myself a minimalist but I need to make myself more mindful and thankful about my life. Thumbs up x

[@PickUpLimes]

Thanks so much for sharing the kind words, Kathryn ❤ Wishing you all the best on your continued journey with this :)

[@rianitania7456]

Hi.. how to organize your stuff? Thanks

[@gayatrikancanaigusti4930]

Your channel is inspiring! I've been feeling that I have too much stuffs I dont actually use, but too afraid to let them go, thinking I might need any of them someday. Though for once I lost one of them, nothibg really happenned, bcs I dont need it anyway. This channel has confirmed it, I began to donate things or hand them over to recyclers. Now I'm so happy to have more empty space in my room - just to leave them empty.

[@valerieheyn1663]

I love what you said about increasing your desire by just getting inspired. I have recently found this truth in my life and it has helped me so much

[@kriparavikumar8925]

You speak so well. You are so calming. I have seen many videos on minimalism but this really made sense and inspired me. Love you. Keep it going 💙💙💙

[@angelicarodriguez4488]

I subscribed to your channel a few hours ago and you were at 28K now it says 30K 😱😱 you radiate positivity, calm, peace just beauty overall. I love it.

[@PickUpLimes]

AW, thanks so much Angelica ❤ And yes it's growing very quickly! :D

[@quirina4899]

your videos make me smile. I think that simplicity in our days turns life more brightly and hopeful. I'll make an effort to try this way of living and enjoying the real moment.

[@PickUpLimes]

So happy to read this, Quirina. Thank you for sharing :)

[@JennyT101]

I read the description box. I am a minimalist. I really enjoy your videos! You seem so steady, calm and poised. Can you do a video on how you remain so in this crazy, crazy world?
