I am going through a difficult break up and on most days getting out of bed is a struggle. Watching some videos brings me peace. It feels like a breath of fresh air when the walls are closing in, thank you :)

[@MalamaLife]

I'm so sorry to hear that! break ups are so difficult :( I'm glad these videos can be helpful though. sending you love

[@maitriborthakur7360]

Hope you find peace and move on🍁

[@kerynl.sanchez9891]

I achieved so much more clarity and peace when I got rid of most of my media platforms and I stopped talking to people who were constantly talking about their problems, because indeed they are addicted to drama. I also ditched the news and all of the negative and violent stuff. I don’t need the noise anymore and I’m so grateful for that. Also away from gossip people and negative Nancy’s. Decluttered your mind and the rest will fall into place.

[@MalamaLife]

🥰 love your thoughts on this and couldn't agree more about the media platforms

[@Grownglow123]

1. Set priorities. We need to figure out what is most important to us. Ask What matters to you the most? 2. Be desicive . its okay to make a wrong decision and learn from it, than not making one 3. Avoid multitasking 4. Keep a journal. There are infinitely more what ifs than what is . so don't let your expectations limit yourself in reality.

[@adeebusmani8232]

Multitasking is something which we should try to avoid as much as possible. In the fast paced corporate world, it is seen as a badge of honour to be able to do many things at once. But the reality is, we work best when we do one thing with focus, concentration and intention . Now we are surrounded by so many interruptions, notifications, rings, beeps and so on. So it is even more important for us to guard our focus and not give in to the distractions. Do one thing at a time, and do it well !!

[@MalamaLife]

Absolutely love what you said! even at my job, I was rewarded for multitasking and working faster, but this definitely affected my quality of work. Also I love how you said we must "guard " our focus and not give in to distractions. Very true! Thank you so much for sharing your insight!

[@user19374name]

I have never found a channel I love more. I just watch it on repeat and have changed so many things as a response to this slow living inspiration . Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Im not a full minimalist (I still love buying my shoes, books, and a few basketball related things here and there, only buying things that have meaning). but I def implemented some minimalist concepts in my life. Your channel is absolute gold, much love from Canada

[@MalamaLife]

I am definitely not an extreme minimalist either, but some of the concepts really help me as we. Happy to hear that it helped you too 😊 thanks for watching

[@titliworld6687]

❤️

[@A222Z]

I'm enjoying your videos.. i will add, however, that not making a decision- is actually making a decision to not do something. .. i do understand what you are trying to say. .. you're doing a great job.

[@MalamaLife]

❤😊🙏 thanks for watching

[@alexperoff-investingessent8367]

I really like your section on decision making. As somebody who thinks WAAAAY too much, I found myself over-analyzing things and not taking any action. And these weren't exactly big life-changing decisions that require considerable thought, but relatively small things that in the grand scheme of things were somewhat inconsequential. Thank you for sharing!

[@MalamaLife]

I think it becomes a habit, and then it becomes hard to break the pattern. I over analyze way too much as well and it just makes the whole situation even more complicated. Thanks for your comment Alex!

[@marizcua2365]

Your advises and tone of voice give me so much calm and clarity on how to essentially take on each day. You’re able to articulate things that had used to be confusions in my mind. With your help, I was able to uncover the true reason why there had been an empty hole in my heart for years now. You’re like a daily bread to me now. Thank you for what you do!

[@Ksam9803]

I just discovered you this past month & love your calm personality, presentation of your content and the overall beautiful spirit that comes through what you love🦋☀️🧘‍♀️ Thank you😘

Thanks so much Hannah ❤

[@noraz4858]

Your very informative and inspiring. I'm glad I found you.

[@rosievalentin]

Loved and appreciated this! Have been having so much unresolved clutter on my mind. This definitely helped 💗

[@MalamaLife]

So happy to hear that :)

[@joshuathinkingoutloud]

I completely agree with getting the mental clutter out of our head and onto paper. It’s one of the quickest ways we can regain our equilibrium. Not only does it free up space in the mind for me, because I’m a visual person it makes my thoughts even more clear by being able to see them on paper.

[@MalamaLife]

You said it so well Josh. Exactly the same for me, but I never had the words to articulate it like you! I am very visual and seeing my thoughts helps me gain clarity. Thank you always for your thoughtful comments. I am so happy that we connected through this space.

[@joshuathinkingoutloud]

Malama Life Thank you! Yes agreed!

[@WalterAkana]

Hi Sophie! Excellent video! I love how you’ve applied minimalism as a framework for mental clarity. As well, you’ve provided great practical suggestions to achieve more clarity and mindfulness. And your advice is very useful in managing the day to day! As a career/executive coach, I’ve worked with a lot of people on achieving clarity. So, I wanted to share that another path in that quest is to discern life themes, as driven by your vision, purpose, values, and passions. It’s a longer process, but often results in powerful insights! How this is helpful.

[@MalamaLife]

I appreciate your advice and insight Walter! Also, I admire your profession. I think it's wonderful that you provide a source of light for those who need to know their direction in life. I never thought about discerning life themes. That is such an interesting concept and now I'm curious to know my own. I'm sure it's not an overnight process, but now I will be always thinking about this. Thank you so much.

[@WalterAkana]

@@MalamaLife Hi Sophie! Thanks for your thoughtful feedback and kind words. Yes, coaching has been a rewarding career. It has its challenges, but is always rewarding when people have those “ah ha” insights that lead to more success. Work on life themes (i.e., what matters to a person) actually comes out of my personal branding work and relates to life and brand story discovery. You’re right, it’s definitely not an overnight process. Happily, without previously thinking in terms of “themes,” your videos show that you already have a strong grounding in what matters to you and your work comprises several important themes. So, for you, I believe thinking about your life purpose - i.e. “ikigai” - would be more beneficial. Here’s a post with a good four-circle framework that reflects what I focus on with people: www.sloww.co/ikigai/ Once, again, Sophie, thanks for taking the time to reply and share ideas. Much appreciated!

[@Patricia-fi9zo]

Love this video, so many great thoughts paired with the lovely footage and your calm presence, always a pleasure to watch 😊

It's something really important and I'm sure your inspiring others with your thoughts, as you inspire me as well 😊

[@rainbowkangaroo]

Hello from Australia 🇦🇺, thank you for the useful tips to clear the clutter in mind. You made me realise that I sometimes rely on my husband to make decisions, especially big decisions. You are right, because it’s easier to pass it to someone else than picking the best option by myself. Thank you for the tip. I will remind it to myself next time. I do journaling often, I think it works so well too! By the way, I love Hawaii 😍

[@MalamaLife]

I am the same way. Maybe we have similar personality where we are laid back and probably happy with any decisions :) however, like you said, I am also learning to make decisions for myself and it has helped me immensely to stand up for myself, my values and hand picking the things I want in life. I am so happy you liked the video. Much aloha from Maui.

[@TheMononome]

Hi! I am a new fan of your channel ;) I think that you are not only a minimalist but also practitioner of the divine feminine principle!

[@MalamaLife]

Aw thank you so much 🥰❤

[@bellekwan2602]

Thanks Sophie for sharing your minimalist journey. I have started to watch your videos since couple of weeks ago and i do gain a lot from them. Recently I am trying to sort out my journals and realize how hard it is to take the first step to do mind decluttering. After watching this video, I think I got some better ways to get approach of my clear mind. (Your smile is so charming btw😊)

[@MalamaLife]

Thank you so much Belle. I appreciate that so much! I think the first step is definitely the hardest, but hopefully you were able to find better ways to clear your mind :)

[@peacefulliving6432]

I appreciate your videos! There are so many distractions in life. I notice when I am more involved with the things I enjoy and love to do, the more I feel happy.

[@MalamaLife]

Yes :) exactly. I feel the same

[@airiinclg8874]

I really love your videos! It is altogether so real and clearly narrated. Anyways, I hope you can share about yoga tips for beginners, you inspired me to start with it so it'd be nice to receive tips/notes from you.

I realized that I alreeady started to declutter my space here at home and you gave mo so many ideas on how to do it and extend it to my lifestyle and decision-making. I'm now looking forward to watching the rest of this playlist later today - I got to finish fist my priority today (just what you suggested in this video). Again, thank you very much! 🤍

[@markblado4282]

Wow!! Well done!! There’s a lot of good advice here! You’re right, multitasking does not work. I try to prioritize my tasks. Sometimes I work on the tough ones first, while my energy level is high. For variety next time, I will get the simple ones done, so I can focus on the big one. Sometimes I will say to myself, “by 10 AM, I want to start working on the big project”, and isolate myself to avoid distractions. Either way, there’s satisfaction in getting the tasks done! My handwriting is terrible, so I’m not very good at journaling🤣😂. Instead, I type emails to myself to help with it the next time. Dictating into the “notes” section on my iPhone also works well. I really enjoyed this video! Thanks for allowing me to throw in my two cents!

[@MalamaLife]

You always give me so many great ideas Mark! I love that you switch things up by rotating the tough and simple tasks. I think that's great advice and I will try this next time. Also, I think it's special that you email yourself :) it's like writing to your future self. Thank you for your thoughtfulness, as always! Have a great weekend.

[@dondominicoseliga8723]

Unfortunately we are part of the noise so it’s kinda impossible to remove it from our headspace. There will be always some jarring sound within us and we just need to reduce the volume of it. That’s all we can do about it. Our minds will never be decluttered completely cos our journey on this planet is about progressing and evolving. Perfection is beyond our capabilities therefore we are unable to liberate our minds from chaos. We are part of it as well. Through imperfection we learn more about ourselves. Being perfect, in my opinion, means there is nothing to learn.
