Minimalism in 4 steps: this feels so much better! Declutter & simplify your life

I'm decluttering and simplifying my life... even more, every year. Minimalism is a journey. It feels so good to be in control & to limit all that noise (in my head) and that clutter (in my life). This video was filmed over several months, to document my process.

[@tulsikanodia8603]

I love the fact that you have no editing "effects" and a plain background - no music in your videos. Whatever you say just hits differently. Gives more emphasis on the content. Keep doing this, love it!

[@labornurse]

And no 4 minute long intro

[@s.lynnrussell9170]

Second!

[@marthadewey1267]

well said !

[@LyudmilaLF]

It's pleasant to watch and to listen 🙂

[@mrsm482]

Oh, thank you for saying that. Sometimes, I can't watch an interesting video on KZbin for too much intro, background music, extra images and harsh sounds. You are right.

[@A78cts23]

My favorite minimal quote is that minimalism doesn't mean you don't own things just that the things you do own add value to your life 👍

[@barbarak2836]

That is a wonderful quote, and will be very helpful to remember when I am trying to decide what to do with a certain possession.

[@laviniasnow4494]

Another quote I know goes like this „Minimalism doesn't mean you don't own things, but that things don't own you.”. I like this quote because when things don't own you, you can let them go whilst keeping the good memories and you don't suffer when they get out of your life. 😌 I'm still on my way to that goal tho.

[@scusikathali]

Sorry, but THINGS never could add value to your life, but you can apreciate the things more...

[@BetwixtDandD]

I just finished reading a book "Things might go terribly, horribly wrong" and I lernt two very important things: 1. Ambiguity causes most of our anxiety - Questions with no answers, questions with no right answer, chasing answers to unanswerable questions, trying to solve problems that have no good solution, being so focused on problem-solving that we start to see problems where there are none,... 2. Just 'sit' with ambiguity and anxiety. Anxiety is fear of things going wrong in the future so be present, sit with your anxiety, get to know it as a thing separate from you. Sit, breath, take a moment to not problem solve. It is really helping me with decluttering my mind since I realized that the world our mind creates is NOT real and our inner words to ourselves are the monsters we are affraid off. (Disclamer: If there is a bear or a serial killer after you, that's real. Run as fast as you can.)

[@justineleconte]

is the disclaimer from the book, or did you add it? Just curious :-D

[@BetwixtDandD]

@@justineleconte Kind of both, lol. The book explains that humans lived in immediate danger most of the time (weather, animals, other humans) so now, when we live in an ordered society and don't face danger to our lives around every corner, our minds are going in overdrive and create problems and monsters that are not there just because that's what it's use to do through an evolutionary processes... I don't know if I'm explaining it clearly but the book is really helpful.

I fell down the minimalism rabbit hole a few years ago and have been simplifying my life ever since. Strangely enough it felt healing - last July I was diagnosed with ADHD and I realised why simplifying had such an impact on me. I still have too much stuff and too much mess in my head but my life has already improved a lot.

[@tracythomas343]

Such good suggestions. I find myself single after years of marriage. I want to rediscover who I am as me. I’ve had a museum membership for years but didn’t use it. I think I’ll start there. Going to museums in my area as a way of getting out of the house and enjoying my own company.

I too, have/had this problem. What I'm working on is scheduling out my week & maintaining the schedule. Justine had a video recently about how she scheduled out her week, beginning with Monday. I tweaked it a little for me, but it works wonderfully. Best of luck!!

[@sallycrane6317]

I know what you mean, I have been medically retired and I find the free time overwhelming. I was so used to being a wife, a mum and working for a living I always had so much to do but managed it all. Now I can do what ever I like i find it difficult to motivate myself to do anything. I think I will tweak Justine's thought diary to a what I want to achieve today diary so that I can feel some sort of achievement when I complete those tasks and maybe get my mojo back.

I know it might sound too simplistic but it surely helped me during lockdown......get up early, have a shower and dress nicely, don't stay in your pjs. Have a nice healthy breakfast and then find something productive to do.....cleaning, decluttering, go for a walk, anything you fancy as long as it makes a difference in your day. This way you won't have that awful "the day is almost over and I didn't do anything " feeling. The first part was a game changer for me. Love from London ❤

[@elizabethanne8729]

This past week has been very hard and cathartic for my husband and myself. We had to purge some friends and family for our mental health. Making that space is super important. Space of all kinds is so important. 💯

I'm always touched by how many of the people I like to watch on youtube reveal themselves to be writing morning pages or engaging with Julia Cameron's work. Then again, I'm not surprised - especially the morning pages are a calm way of sorting through a creative mind mess. It makes me feel so good to have these in common with people whose work I enjoy and admire.

[@crshia]

I've been wanting to reset my life to build it more around my creative efforts and this was so helpful. I have friends who are avid hikers and find the best nature trails. I do that a little, but want to build it more into my life flow. During COVID, I have become interested in cultivating house plants and my veranda garden and I really want to keep growing that. I found it amazing how much happiness I found when my first maranta arrived in the mail. Not minimalistic, I know, but caring for living things is a great experience (and I kept killing the bonsais, which I just didn't have the knack for).

[@rrosaseconda]

Traveling to new spaces is primary; second to that is visiting museums of various types. My mind is so restored by these outings!

Bravo!! For taking the time for your own health & well being. Please don’t worry about weather you’re a stellar “influencer”. You are doing what’s right for you and I always look forward to seeing you on KZbin. I only wish I had been that insightful about my needs at your age. Carry on!!

Me time is all about stimulating my creative juices without too much brain power. Seeing a movie, going to a museum, touring a college campus, or simply sitting with a book and a coffee at the cafe are amazing me time activities. For my physical body, me time is having a one person dance party, going on a hike, taking some time to do yoga or kickboxing whether in a class or at home.

[@iliyanaarakelyan1574]

I love decluttering and even buy fewer clothes, accessories and make-up since the start of the pandemic. "Me" time is reading books, making art and craft projects. I often buy books and art/craft supplies. Because of that, I'm rearranging a lot. It helps me clear my mind and declutter my space. Still, my home is pretty IKEA style - most of the space is put to use and fictional. Thank you for the lovely video! I wish you positive energy and creativity!

[@abemoni]

This is interesting. One of the main habit changes in my life in the past 1.5 years is my transition from studio workouts to at-home workouts. In the process of that transition, I realised just how much of my life outside work was scheduled around my workouts. Now I decide when and what time to workout. Very appreciative of the YT workout channels that I follow!

[@mai567]

Ohh this is such a wonderful treat to find there's a new Justine video after a loooong week and an even longer Friday at work!

[@suzannesardinha6337]

“The Artist’s Way” and Morning Pages are the best. 👍

[@SingYourselfWell]

For this extra 2 hour period: my daily TM meditations are the most essential part of my day. Walks or simply being in Nature, are a close second. Creating my art, singing, snuggling my cats, followed by talking with a dear friend also fill up that special time. Once the world is in a kinder, freer place, traveling is high on priority list. Thank you Justine for this wonderful video. It was nice seeing your mess. I'm encouraged. 💖

[@dorothymarquis5738]

I identified with your comment about how you can work around and walk around things lying on the floor. I no longer feel so alone. I began a declutter of my space last year. I watched a few series on NetFlix as well as some on KZbin. There was many a night when I just felt like packing a small suitcase and abandoning my house. The process is a very emotional experience. I have not yet completed the process. I gave away over 2 500 books, a huge amount of clothing and household linens. I decluttered every drawer in the house. I found other homes for china and glassware. Today I am sorting out all my fabric and sewing supplies (my housemate moved out so a room has become available). It feels good to have order and hopefully know where things are.

[@beautyfashionandfauna6667]

I didn't declutter during the pandemic. I worked from home, but never worked more or harder in my life. I noticed I avoided my polyester pieces since lockdown. I am currently decluttering my ployester pieces replacing key pieces in that material with ones that contain natural fibers or a mix of nautral and synthetic fibers. I don't buy any polyester now, and that is the easiest way not to purchase new clothing. I found new ways to dress down more formal clothing rather than parting with it. Lastly, I am part of freecycle community on social media, where give away items we no longer need, but can also ask for items or to borrow items for a period of time. This reduces consumption, waste, and prevents clutter from happening in the first place. I love it. Why buy paint at a craft store for a single project, when my neighbor can give me the tube of paint they have in their home from a previous project that they will most likely never use again. I've decluttered a vase from flowers I was gifted to a bride to use for her wedding decorations, and whole pieces of furniture that I would not make money on if I tried to sell. And the list goes on. I encourage you to see if these groups exist in your area.

I lost six stone (good eh?) and got heavily into sport and now do all my stuff at home-strength, yoga, etc. I’ve saved a total fortune on gym costs. You can sweat and make any funny noises you need haha then jump straight into your own shower. You can wear anything/not a lot cos no one can see you. Best decision ever!

I love your videos Justine. I actually like that your videos have no music added as I feel like I can take in your lessons with so much more clarity. I can relate to the struggle-being an entrepreneur, chartering two kids at home and trying to keep all aspects of my household running is such a challenge. When things are simple and clean I just function better. When life feels cluttered, I feel stuck and can't move forward without intention effort. Thank you for this video!
