What are habits you do that have improved your life?

[@beccaatthebeach]

I feel like my life is on a very similar journey as yours, except you’re helping others find this particular path more than I am ☺️🥰 thank you for making these beautiful videos I can share with friends and family who might benefit! You and your calming voice are reassuring and greatly appreciated! ❤

[@revighetto]

Simplifying my daily life, such as preparation of too much complicated meals, tv, and internet. As I reduced this stuff I have enough time to do nothing.

[@idamoller5994]

More mindful where I spend my time and with who...more breathing and stillnes in nature for sure

[@MassMultiplayer]

not missing a single essential nutriment and more for 3$ canadian a day and be fit healthy energetic , and enjoy lot of free time from minimalism

[@TGIFEveryDay]

Can you please let us C know where you are in these beautiful videos? Thanks!!

[@michellemcalister80]

Connie I’m so inspired by you! I’m 68 and am ready to breathe and love myself! Today I cleaned out my entire closet and kept what I love! Thank you!

[@elevationview673]

I just want to share I no longer have a TV. This is so freeing. My TV was a source of anxiety.

[@janefromthecountry1820]

Gave away our microwave. Feel it’s healthier. Refuse to buy an air fryer for same reasons. Hand wash our dishes. Hang most clothes up to air dry. My spouse and I walk daily outside. Going back to old fashioned ways of grandparents. I enjoyed your video today. ❤

[@HerCupOfSIMPLE]

I second that, sweet Connie! I'm a mom to 6 and I've been doing without microwaves and dryers and many other kitchen appliances that weren't good for our health... You need to invest more labor into your chores but I grew up this way and I guess I enjoy this "old fashioned" skills😄😵‍💫

[@emilywilson7308]

Nice!🌷

[@kaygoski]

I already do all those things anyway. Just stopped halfway through the video to see what the comments were as it seemed so rehashed Sorry.

[@LCLand]

I’ve never owned a microwave

[@susisiebert5942]

Great choices

[@lynettelea7177]

Thank you for reminding us to have fun, focus on small changes that add up over time and be content with simple pleasures in life. 👏🏼👍🏼

[@dolittle6781]

I love cycling, not competitively, just around a small town -- farmers market, cafe shops, health food stores, parks, and most of all eating healthful foods. Reading, writing music, yardwork, and listening to audiobooks are amoung the things I really look forward to doing.

[@borleyboo5613]

That little monkey is so sweet. Beautiful little soul.

[@HerCupOfSIMPLE]

It was soooo precious to see everybody's big smiles!!!! Your grandkid is adorable! Enjoy this wonderful time with them, Connie!🥰🤗

[@marissaclaridge7627]

So lovely Connie...the monkeys' are so adorable!!!xxx

[@cannajoshi7246]

Hey !!! Connie it’s so good to see entire family having a wonderful time together. You look a super cool grandma ❤. Recently I have developed a habit of not overthinking and started appreciating myself as a gesture of self love.

[@user-dr6vj8ez9q]

Great video, reminders for all! Thank you for sharing!❤️

[@teresa5007]

Hi Connie. I love your lifestyle. You’ve definitely worked out your priorities in life. Happy marriage, happy kids (and grandkids), relaxed and calm, peace of mind, enjoyment of nature, healthy eating, moving .your body. In other words, enjoying your life, your way. It’s something many of us can only dream of. I’m making small changes in my life by decluttering (a work in progress) both material possessions as well as mental clutter and doing a lot of self reflection about the past and how I’m choosing to go forward from here on. Your videos are very inspirational and your voice is so calming. I’m planning to do some of your meditation videos soon! Take care, love from Australia.❤️🌹🖖🙈🌴🌊🇦🇺

[@svetamusic]

Same here! I know I will come one day to that peace place within myself. Working towards it .. 🙏❤️🪷

[@floridamezzo8734]

I have started cooking every day--simple, healthy meals. It is changing my life.

[@katy5900]

Would love some ideas, I'm not very good at thinking of dinners for my family.

[@ME-fo7si]

@@katy5900 there’s lots of stuff on KZbin showing how to prepare family meals in advance. I personally when the children were small, would cook a spaghetti bolognese sauce and make sure I made double the amount, I’d then freeze half either to use as a base for a chili or a shepherd’s pie.

[@donnarakitzis2719]

Thank you for bringing me back to reality. I need slow living

[@faithbwire9164]

Very practical tips

[@traycei]

Lately I have been doing breathwork and it does wonders. Also started exercising again 😊

I like that "have fun" was the first habit! YES!

[@SwiftlyScrumptious]

Thank you so much for this video❤️ I was thinking of skipping my nature walk today but now after watching your video I decided to just do it:) I also unplug from my phone when I’m walking. I know for sure that I will feel a lot better after it.

[@mariawatson4171]

[@angelikat4577]

Thank you connie - your videos are so helpful and inspiring to me. Whenever I feel low, I just have to watch one of your videos to get myself back on track. They are a beautiful and kind reminder to me. To take care of myself, to treat myself with kindness and appreciate what I am and already have. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@denisebrann8563]

Very inspirational. So many practices that I will be implementing in my life. Thank you.

Hi connie thank you for all your knowledge I’m slowly getting there more so with clearing out the house hopefully by 1st of June I’m going to start working on my health being mindful of food and better choices and exercise I’m like a turtle 🐢 slow moving but getting there hopefully this improves

[@jane1044]

I love your comment 'boredom is a luxury'. I see so many people out walking who are totally riveted to their phones even in the park. I find it so sad.

Hi Connie. I see you spend a lot of time by the water. That is my favourite place. By the water. I live where the winters are severe but in the summer spend as much time as possible by a lake. 😊

Hi,I'm your new subscriber and really glad to find your channel.keep inspiring us.

[@sarihautamaki8735]

❤ I just love calmness in your videos. You speak so softly and slowly. Its nice to see beautiful nature. In some minimalistic vlogs there are too much words and enthusiastic vloggers are in a hurry to give good advice... But this gives me stress, which is quite opposite to that what minimalism goal is. With love from Finland, Sari

you are such an amazing being. I cant stop watching your videos and listen to your wisdom and calming voice. You inspired me to minimalize more and more . i feel decluttered ,thanks to source and then to you and your insiring channel.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled that my content resonates with you

[@lovehealsall8051]

[@jennyfulcher8035]

Daily breathwork and exercise are good for the mind, body, and soul. Breath work can calm down our monkey mind, lower BP, and allow ourselves to become more mindfully present. Exercise, especially the yoga that you do, is especially important to maintain balance and prevent falls as we age. Also allowing our inner child to come out and play allows us to be young at heart, to become more creative and to engage with our loved ones and the world around us.

[@kadieschaefer2874]

Love your content! Could you share the brand of the black pants you're wearing in your movement/yoga portion of the video?! I'm on the hunt for pants like this!

[@dianapaloma3102]

I really like your videos. Thank you. They are helpful for people that have chronic illness too. Sometimes though we have to keep up the healthy daily habits even when we aren’t pain free. We just do our best. 🙏❤️

[@ConnieRiet]

On "bad" physical days, I honor where my body is today and do what I feel as if I can. Self care is self love

[@dianapaloma3102]

Beautifully put. Thank you. It’s a journey. 🙏❤️

[@cherylweaver5129]

Lovely video! I'm getting outside first thing in the morning to soak up some sunshine. I found out I have to give up dairy and wheat for good. I'm 65 and still a massage therapist. I like to hike and kayak. Would you consider filming a yoga session we can follow a long with? 😊

[@robertashaffer3950]

So beautiful Connie! How wonderful being away all together with your family ❤ I loved this video. And.... without you knowing, this has been a direct message for me regarding procrastination. I was thinking of how I put things off and how I am "reaping" the consequences of my non actions. Then poof! One of the important topics you discuss on this video. I am grateful for you Connie. Thank you. Be blessed with your family. 🙏 I am now going to do the dishes, take a walk, and come back to finally tackle getting my paperwork done for my income taxes. I had more than 2 months to do this.... deadline is May 1 and there are 4 days next week I won't have a chance to do this! 😱😅🙏

What is the "American dream"? Of course, every continent has its own version of the "local dream" of the European type, Middle Eastern type, Asian type and others. If a person is a pagan or an ungodly person (in fact, almost all people on earth today are either ungodly or pagans), then this is more than natural for such people in their desire for a prosperous life in its richest possible form. They confirm that "the more money, the better, and even they are ready to die for such a dream." "Man does not live by bread alone." Such people believe that they have only one life and will not have another, so they need to live this life as comfortably as possible and experience as much pleasure as possible. But sooner or later everything ends. The higher they rise, the lower they fall. Somewhere slowly, and somewhere quickly, the current human civilization is living out its last days. The American Dream is an example, if definitely not the best, then at least the biggest, concerning a person's dream of a comfortable and well-fed life. But even this American dream is fading into oblivion. Desperate attempts are constantly being made to prolong its existence. The United States belongs to the so-called developed countries and, accordingly, they are already developed, that is, they have reached their peak, there is no further way, therefore, accordingly, there is no sense and motivation to go further, only the way back to the bottom. The same can be said about Europe and some developed Asian countries, where "they also almost sang their merry song." And as for developing countries, such countries have a lot to develop, because such countries have not reached their peak and they are still developing. And the so-called developing countries won't be able to enjoy it for a long time either. Although the definition of the concepts of "developed" and "developing" is not entirely accurate in principle. But nevertheless. You are inside the system, and the system is inside you. "Two boots in a pair." And the world you live in is filled with lies. Let your heart burn in the fire of truth for a while, and not your soul and body feel the coolness in the water of lies for a while. Seek the truth while there is time.

[@jmc8076]

Interesting points. US like many country’s birth or history was conveniently forgotten or glossed over for yrs. Truth of colonialism incl brutality, expropriation, suppression and segregation of many millions of people who lived on land worldwide. N. American indigenous lived on it peacefully for over 20K yrs. Most felt they belonged to the land or rest of nature not vice versa. Vikings reportedly came befire Europeans in peace. Shared traditions and food and left. In peace. James Truslow Adams (no relation to POTUS) was founding father of the American Dream. He coined it in his 1931 bestselling book The Epic of America. He wanted to name the book ‘The American Dream’ but publisher said not a good idea during the Great Depression. Adam’s def’n: “a dream of a social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.” All of this can be looked up in case I made a mistake somewhere.
