[@laurak9795]

Thank you for sharing your story! I so appreciate your genuineness. :)

[@Theuniverseguru]

Great video. Minimalism has completely changed my life. Who knew less is so much more!

[@SugarMamma]

Isn't it amazing...almost addictive xCC

[@ThanksToFashion]

I gain so much from your lifestyle videos. Thank you for that

[@SugarMamma]

My pleasure xCC

[@a91170]

Very inspirational. Thanks

[@evecrabapple8413]

love this message! its been one that I've been trying to live.

[@Sundayonthefarm]

I like to describe it as practicing minimalism instead of labeling myself or anyone as a minimalist because we are all so much more than that. Great video.

[@SugarMamma]

Such a great point! xCC

[@sdctx17]

Your videos are so inspiring, canna. Thank you :)

[@DGsa1661]

I absolutely love your honesty! My baby also has terrible reflux so I know how you felt. It's so important for us to share all of the good, bad and the ugly experiences that can affect us. Thank you for sharing :)

[@Alice-ig4wv]

I'm getting a house built at the moment and I've been mentally preparing for packing and moving in a few months. I planned on getting rid of some stuff but now I feel more motivated to get rid of much more. Looking forward to the upcoming cull!

[@SugarMamma]

+Alice You'll feel so good afterwards... it's literally like taking a big load off! And the less you have, the less you have to move! xCC

[@SydneyConnectsDots]

I find the older I get, the less I need (or value 'things')!

[@reynelle87]

You look beautiful as always!!!! I love your top!!! Thanks for sharing your minimalism why :)

[@SugarMamma]

Thank you. xCC

[@tastytulip]

Thankyou for sharing Canna. So motivating as always. Love it when you are super open and honest like this x

[@candyluna2929]

completely agree! I have been getting rid of things and the visual space and cleanliness has been amazing. I enjoy cleaning now, I don't hesitate to wash dishes and if I leave a few things out overnight, it won't be overwhelming to deal with it the next day.

[@SugarMamma]

Good work Madama. xCC

[@NEWOUTLOOKPT]

Loved this!

[@leahlwagnerr]

So many great points in this video! Love it! 💞💞💞

[@Anthony-jc1bi]

I've been a minimalist for a while but you have really helped me apply minimalism to my finances. A big thank you for that! X

[@SugarMamma]

My pleasure, thank you for letting me know... I am glad I can be a bit of help! xCC

[@Miranda_Lewis]

I think you are amazing. As a single mum with a little girl myself, the discovery of your youtube channel has been a revelation to me. Thank you!!!

[@SugarMamma]

+Sam Rudens My pleasure Sam... thank you for the lovely feedback. xCC

[@ArmandoDuranTV]

Watching this was a good reminder. A while ago I started reading from The Minimalists and being minimalist as much as I can has made such difference in my life. Although I must say, I have to remember to practice it more. I think it is like any practice, like yoga or a martial art. ... Thanks for the video!

[@SugarMamma]

+Armando Duran I agree Armando. xCC

[@jessmholmes89]

Thanks for another great video canna! Your earlier video inspired me to do the 30 day challenge and while my home is by no standards minimalist, it already feels like a more calm and positive environment! Thank you for the inspiration x

[@SugarMamma]

+Jessica Holmes That is wonderful Jessica... so pleased to hear you did the challenge. xCC

[@kiterafrey]

If they’re laughing at you having a wardrobe the size that makes you happy, then they’re not very good friends. They should support your happiness, not judge it.

[@Sazzay96]

I love this video and am obsessed with your videos! I am really trying to apply more minimalism to parts of my life. I used to always feel overwhelmed and when I moved last year (and had to live with only a bunch of things for a week) it felt amazing and I loved how simplistic it was!

[@SugarMamma]

That's wonderful... It has certainly been a life changer for me! xCC

[@yvonneturner7651]

Another great video Canna. It's important to know your why in what you do. Thanks for sharing. I've just started de-cluttering my home Marie Kondo style so living through a bit more mess before it becomes clearer. Looking forward to that day. 😊

[@SugarMamma]

+yvonne turner Haha, feel free to share your experiences along the way too! xCC

[@annafranklin4981]

Thanks for another great minimalist video. I was watching in bed this morning and after the bit about how much easier your house is to manage, I jumped up and started sorting the laundry! Ha ha! I came to your channel from your earlier minimalist videos and have found then really helpful. I also like your approach to 'incorporating' minimalism. There seems to be some people who grasp at the label and judge others to be, or not be, minimalists. Sarah Wilson of I Quit Sugar says to try something and see if it works for you. I find that a gentler and more helpful approach. Good for ourselves and for not judging others. Anyway, thanks for this video. :-)

[@SugarMamma]

Thanks Anna! Have a great day! xCC

[@galrubin2366]

you are drop dead gorgeous

[@ShimekRiverGirl]

I am 56 and wish I'd figured out minimalism much earlier. I guess I needed to grow old and realize the role that material things have in life--both positive and negative. I appreciate this video.

[@SugarMamma]

I think the universe works in perfect time for us. Maybe minimalism appeared in your life because you were only ready for it now and can true appreciate the benefits from it at this place and stage in your life? xCC

[@ShimekRiverGirl]

Yes! :-)

[@nataliemchugh706]

I love and look forward to your lifestyle love videos. I have started the apply your minimalism tips and they make me feel so much more in control and relaxed.

[@SugarMamma]

Oh that is great... that's my aim and it's so good to hear it's working! xCC

[@pensulesigma]

Can you do a makeup collection video? Minimalism in makeup is something very difficult for me :)

[@SugarMamma]

I struggle as well with minimalism and make up and some areas in my life I have had to accept that I can't be so strict on myself. But a make up minimalism one is definitely on my list! xCC

[@carolinewhite-robinson7364]

Please do a wardrobe tour, you always look so chic. Do you buy because you love the piece or because you need it?

[@SugarMamma]

I will be... It's coming I promise! xCC

[@Sonny0276]

great video. thanks for posting.

[@dianeb2349]

A more minimalist life is really great for me as well. It gives me more peace of mind. De cluttering is just such a good feeling. I started applying minimalism about one and a half years ago. It has really helped me. The only problem is that it's very very hard to apply this to my home. I don't own a lot of stuff buy my boyfriend does. It's absurd. He saves everything too. The garage is filled with stuff and that's just the garage... It's hard living with someone who does the exact opposite 😬 He even has three pieces of furniture ( old junk I call it haha) from his grand parents home which he got when they passed away over 20 years ago. It's old stuff but he's holding on to them because he's emotionally attached to these things. I respect that but these things are just sitting there collecting dust. I'm just different. For me there is no sentimental value in furniture😄 more like little things or photographs.

[@SugarMamma]

This would be hard for you, and I would struggle with the same issues if I was in a relationship with a hoarder. But I think you have the potential to lead by example and inspire your partner gently overtime. Also what I found with sentimental pieces that taking a photo of them allowed me to keep the memory of them in my heart without feeling disrespectful to the item....maybe this might help? xCC

[@dianeb2349]

+Sugar Mamma that is something I will keep in mind and I'll try soon. Maybe that's an idea even though I think taking a photograph of something won't be enough. Haha. 😊 thank you Canna. Till the next video. Looking forward to it. Xoxo

[@fashionisbliss]

Loved this video, Canna

[@vivianloarca]

Omg that is how I feel right now I have 3 kids and my house is full of clutter and it affect my mood and emotions , I am trying to de clutter little by little and do the minimalist approach. Thanks for this video

[@SugarMamma]

+Vivian L You can do it... you'll feel like a new woman afterwards. xCC

[@MiuMiuG]

Loved this. I'm in the middle of packing up my life here and moving to Oz - and I've been overwhelmed with all the physical, mental and emotional clutter of a life change. This was so timely, thank you. I can work on getting my perspective back. xoxo BTW - I also toast my bread in the oven :)

[@SugarMamma]

Wow, that would be so overwhelming! A friend of mine recently moved house and she was extremely stressed at the time however she got rid of half her things in the process and feels like she has had a fresh, new, clean start to her life if that makes sense. I hope this is how you feel when you move here... And a big warm welcome to you. xCC

[@deslozada]

That dress looks amazing on you!!

[@SugarMamma]

Desiree Lozada thank you, it isn't my usual style but I love wearing it xCC

[@KristinEspinasse]

So enjoyed my first visit to your channel. Off to clear out some stuff over here :-) Thank you.

[@SugarMamma]

+Kristin Espinasse Love that you are starting right now! xCC

[@Anandakali13]

Thank you, darling. Very helpful. Thank you.

[@Kbydfrsghusy]

Your videos Are always so helpful .

[@mandyhs6818]

I don't own a toaster either! ;) great vid Canna!

[@Collorious]

Haha, I don't have a toaster either and also use my oven to toast things. I can always tell what months I ate more toast or waffles based on my electric bill!

[@xIXsunsetXIx]

Great Video :) your dress is sooo beautiful. Where did you buy it?

[@SugarMamma]

+xIXSunsetXIx It's from Zimmerman. xCC

[@SelinaaaBro10]

I love your dress! Could you tell me where its from?

[@SugarMamma]

+KJ It's a Zimmerman dress. xCC

[@luizzza77]

I love your videos. I try to do 5:2 fast diet but its hard :(. some tips?

[@heartlandranchtv4943]

+Luiza Spiridon Try switching to a _daily_ intermittent fasting protocol like a 16/8 or 20/4. You'll get more of the fasting benefits since you're doing it daily, and it's much easier to sustainable in the long run.

[@gretchenjana6219]

hi can u pls tell me what milk formula u used for ur baby wd reflux?

[@mackberg1792]

Anyone out there have any advice about minimalism struggles with your husband/partner? I feel if it was just me and my daughter it would be easier for me to declutter! How do I solve this ? 😖

[@simplebliss1381]

I know it is frustrating when everyone isn't on the same page. To reduce tension, just start working on things which you have control and don't force or touch your husband's stuff without his permission. Give him some time.. Once he sees how organized you are and its benefits on your lifestyle, he will turn around. Patience is key but don't let this situation discourage you from simplifying your life! Hope this helps 😊

[@jessmholmes89]

+Mackenzie Sandberg Word up! I have this problem too! What to me is a calming and productive clean space is full blown OCD to my parter. I wish I could convert him but I don't think he appreciates my attempts haha :) Just have to be patient and compromise to the extent you can. I sympathize though...I feel like having a clean decluttered home is what helps me be a more patient and calm person...so it's a bit of a tricky vicious circle

[@therebex23]

+Mackenzie Sandberg Give them a space for their stuff, somewhere behind a closed door. Allow your husband/partner a room just for them (or in smaller living spaces, a closet or storage furniture) to store their stuff. Perhaps a storage unit in the garage or even rented might apply.

[@Tinamar65]

+Mackenzie Sandberg I thought I had this problem too. But then realised that I was transfering my hesitation to go really clutterfree on to my family. It always starts with yourself and then the others will follow...

[@symonewish]

Your bracelet kept catching my eye throughout the whole video lol, I really like it! Do you mind me asking where it's from? And great video by the way.

[@SugarMamma]

If it is the gold bangle it is my love bracelet…I never take it off….xCC

[@liambenoit3895]

As me being a dude i love to cook. But i don't like all that cleaning. So talk about minimalism in the kitchen. Just a suggestion.

[@SugarMamma]

+Phillip Benoit Tough suggestion because I don't like cooking... but perhaps we could start with cleaning as you go? and use simpler recipes with fewer ingredients... I have just learnt this approach and love it... I can actually taste the food rather than over complicating flavours and each food trying to out do each other. xCC

[@pdyches]

If i want to be minimalist i need to delete my Amazon account. New package every few days :/

[@SugarMamma]

+Paula D haha... could be a good start! xCC

[@lailaakbar5283]

do u have cats ??? something is playing with those curtains

[@SugarMamma]

Laila Akbar I think it may have been the breeze...I only have two dogs. xCC

[@welshhibby]

I think you've met a new man 😉

[@SugarMamma]

Ha! And what makes you think that!?! Welshhibby you are always so funny! xCC

[@welshhibby]

+Sugar Mamma you seem to have a skip in your step !

[@vikingfinn7250]

You are very good looking, why minimalism? Marry a rich man.

[@dingo-dile]

you are very dumb. money is a tiny part of minimalism

[@therebex23]

+Viking Finn Many extraordinarily wealthy people also practice minimalism. It's not about budgeting, it's about getting rid of waste - something rich people are more likely to accumulate than less-wealthy people.
