AMEN SISTER! You've described my whole 34 years of life in a nutshell! Angry, defensive, not a pleasant person to be around. Then I found God and became a homemaker, and my life drastically changed for the better. It's so cathartic to hear a similar story from other people. It makes you feel less alone. Thanks so much for sharing this

“I thought that slowing down meant I was lazy but it was actually an act of trust believing that God can and will take care of everything even if I’m not hustling “ that right there is a powerful statement and worth asking the lord if that’s what we’ve believed in our own hearts . That hit me hard enough to repent of not trusting him to care for me and my family when I wasn’t busy. This fear of not doing enough caused me to show fear towards my hubs and children amen I’d get soo frigates and sad bc of the cycle I felt stuck in. I prayed many times and asked the Lord for forgiveness and for insight and after several yrs of this i can say I actually am motivated to slow down and be diligent to be present and for me that also means less time in my phone

Wow, what a powerful testimony! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Slowing down can be challenging, and it's so worth it! I'm still actively working at that every day, constantly reminding myself that I don't have to be doing to be obedient to His path for us ❤

It's so much calmer without so much junk to worry about, care for, clean, see, smell, etc. I think for a lot of people it creates sensory overload. I remember waking up in the middle night in an absolute panic wondering how I would ever pack up and move all my stuff... never mind that I wasn't even planning to move! Rehoming (which I did) most of it has created such a sense of calm and peacefulness. When we were cavepeople we had to be able to pick up and move quickly & that is still in our DNA...
@messy2masteryАй бұрын
Sensory overload, that's it! I think a lot of us are overstimulated and the stuff keeps adding to the stress!

I love this video so much!!! I’ve been slowly moving into minimalism, and your honestly in this video made me realize how much anger I’m holding on to. God is so good at using “random” (to us!) things to open our eyes!❤

Oh you hit the nail on the head. I struggle with anger as my default emotion so much and my brain is always on the do do do mode. I also work in corporate world and it just doesn't appeal to me anymore after having children. I am in a similar journey of discovering slow, simple living and remaining in God's peace. What are some other things you implemented to help you quell your anger if i may ask?
@messy2masteryАй бұрын
Thank you for sharing your experience! When I wake up before the girls and have my peace and quiet with Jesus in the morning, I feel FULL! I'm then able to increase my capacity for the day. During that time, I prayer journal, write what I'm grateful for, and read the Bible. I've also found that when I rest during the girls' nap time in the afternoon instead of doing everything, I'm able to recharge, which then helps me with my triggers. I hope this answers your question ❤

Coming across this video… I don’t even know where to begin! Wow! Amen! I have been dealing with all that you’ve touched on for the longest time! Now that I’m a mom of two young kiddos, stuff has just literally taken over and cluttered my mind & our home. All I want to do is sit and spend time with my babies, but I’m constantly worrying about laundry and dishes, and picking up and everything I have to do during the day. I feel like I need to rewatch this video so many times just to remind myself that it’s OK to slow down and not have to worry about everything. I immediately subscribed to your channel, and I’m so excited to check out your videos 🫶🏼

Every journey is different as we are all different. There is however a difference between being organized and being minimalist. One is to plan things and to keep things tidied while the other is to own only what adds value and to remove the rest. Hope this gives you hope that you can also be on a minimalism journey if you desire, regardless of how organized you are ❤
