My minimalist epiphany has been to use the library instead of buying books. That way I can access thousands of books for free - and when I'm done I return them, rather than having them build up at home. Love the almost goofy energy of your videos, so relatable

As a bookworm and a minimalist, I love using the library! I get to read a physical book, but I'm also consuming books sustainably. Plus, it's free! In terms of wanting to read more but not seeming to have the time, I'd recommend trying audiobooks! You can read while you're doing other things - cleaning, walking, laundry, etc.

Hey Sarah! This might not be your cup of tea, and I know you've moved out of this stage of life, but would you look into doing a video on tips for teens on sustainability? For instance, I know that you know that ethical clothing is EXPENSIVE! It wouldn't be realistic for me to only have 2 pairs of jeans because I get them dirty fast and can't run the laundry enough for that. I wish that would work for me, but it doesn't. I can't go fully ethical and price means ALOT for me, but if you could share some tips/ideas that would be awesome! Thanks for all the vids ❤️

Hey!! I'm at college so I don't have much money and have been a minimalist for years so have experience being a teen and trying to pay for things with little to no money. I think your best bet is to thrift, you could also have a clothes swap with friends so you all get new outfits but are reusing clothes. If they doesnt work and you have to buy brand new from a store I recommend 1. Buying high quality so it will last a long time and you won't have to keep replacing 2. Make sure you aren't just buying new clothes to fit a style that will go out of fashion in a couple of months. 3. Be intentional with what you are buying, you said two pairs of jeans isn't enough and that's fine minimalism isn't about having hardly any stuff and you have to go without. It is about only having what you need and what will benefit your life, so if you need 4 pairs of jeans and will use them then go for it. I hope this helps

When I was in college I thrifted even more then I do now!! Thrift stores get new stuff every day so just keep checking back and don’t lose heart, it takes a while to get an “eye” for it. I also would do clothing swap parties with friends where everyone laid out clothes and we each took turns “shopping”. Also during the end of the year, when people are moving out of the college dorms there were always “yard sales” and free piles put out and I would get stuff there.

A friend who just moved had all her weight equipment stolen by the movers and has to go through the long claim process. Ugh!

When I have items to buy, I agree with the higher quality option. Furniture, shoes, or whatever, BUT I shop when it’s discounted! This way I think that it’s a bonus way to afford it. Comfort and longevity often come at a certain price but being patient, knowing where and when to shop, adds to the experience of being mindful in my opinion. Great content Sarah, and hello from hot and sweaty Montreal!

In my minimalist journey I have found myself clinging less to "stuff" and have so much more mental, financial, emotional, physical, and spiritual freedom. I personally now have greater capacity to show love to myself and others when I'm not spending that energy on collecting/cleaning/maintaining the STUFF. I would love to hear the way minimalism has impacted your mental health, relationships, etc.

I am someone who reads a LOT and thankfully am very happy with a kindle. It does save me a ton of space. I will say that I tend to spend more money with a kindle (not because the books are pricier, they’re cheaper), but because I can so easily buy another book. If I’m reading a series and I finish one, all I have to do is click and the next one is right there! I totally understand people who would prefer a real book though. If it’s something you love, then it has a place in your home. Minimalism should just be about letting go of stuff you don’t love or need and only keeping the things that being us joy. It’s pretty logical to get rid of things you don’t want or need.

What you said about thrifting makes sooo much sense. I startet thrifting about 2 years ago because, so as you, I can’t afford ethical clothing, because I’m a uni student. And I can surely say: The things I bought from a thrift store or at a thrift market I love and appreciate so much more, because I had to search and “hunt” for them. They are unique pieces nobody else has. If you didn’t tried thrifting, please do. It’s a fun activity too. I could spent hours in thrift stores just looking and searching and even try clothes on I would never buy, but their are fancy or vintage. I love your content Sara! God bless you!

They don’t fill my life in a good way but instead they just remind me of how unhappy I have been with my life and using items to replace and make up for the emptiness I’ve experienced. More than ever I want to transition into minimalism. Do you have a video of must haves “reusable” items ? I want to stop buying ziploc bags and cotton pads.

This video came off as super privileged to me because of lines like “minimalism opens up your wallet to xyz” implying higher priced items. There are a lot of people that are minimalists simply because they can’t afford anything else, and it certainly doesn’t help open their wallets to anything. Just something to keep in mind. ❤️

Totally with you on all this. Used to be called common sense. A few additional comments: Don't stop reading to your kids when they learn to read. And let them see you read to yourself for pleasure. They pick up by osmosis the idea that anything you love doing is fun to do. Also, you don't have to be well off to use these ideas. Your video gives the impression (to me at least) with all the "we buy x because we can" that you can do things because you are upper middle class. My husband and I used all these concepts when I was a grad student and he was a very poorly paid environmentalist. We still took international vacations.

I’m not a minimalist but since becoming more conscious about the material and quality of my clothing (including production), it has severely limited (in the best way) what I can buy.

I bought 2 pair of Madewell jeans and, go figure, they’re amazing. The fit and texture and quality. Previously I was spending $20 a pop a JC Penny. And 1 use things are never one use. Snack boxes from sprouts get turned into seed starters, a chip bag becomes a garbage bag, and I don’t go anywhere without a cup and straw. Love your shares!

You’ve explained the each point really well. I am trying my best to be minimalist even though we don’t have thrift stores. And I can’t afford the price of local businesses as a student. Yet the concept is so clear and I am doing my best. Thank you so much, I’ve found the right video to share with my fiancé about how I want to live as a minimalist 🥺✨.

We use a subscription service for movies too. One thing that has really helped my family is switching all our DVDs over to a binder style CD holder. We have several movies we didn’t want to get rid of and a lot of Disney/ kids dvds. It is used mostly for the car now because we have a DVD player for the kids.

I definitely must agree about plants in the apartment - my three babies are a year old -- an aloe Vera, lemon plant, and tomato plant. 😊 Reusable cotton, cottonswab, recyclable baking paper, toothbrush, shower brush, I could go on. My new items with proper care will last up to 12 -14 years!

Hello, i'm from indonesia 😊 And i related almost from your video. Hope i can live like you, since i was a kid my parents didn't have lots of money. So we must choose carefully what we bought, and i learned so much as a grow up and become a mom, spending less is better. I love you so much. Yes.. give children books not toys

I saw the title an I was honestly intrigued by the title of this video (isn't minimalism supposed to mean decreasing your overall purchases) but it all made sense when I saw it till the end. It was awesome and clear as always. It also made me wonder if you had planed to make a "concrete saving tips" video explaining how you actually save money (not the just items you no longer buy but hacks on how to track your purchases and live on a budget). It would be very helpful ! Much love from France ;-)

I used to thrift shop all the time until I got accidentally brought home an unexpected free item from Goodwill: a bed bug infestation... Now I'm too scared to go back to a thrift store. Consignment maybe, but definitely not a large chain thrift store.

Here in Germany, many old telephone booths were rebuilt into public bookshelves. So whenever you finished a book you can leave it there and grab another one someone else left there for free. Sometimes I just walk by one of those public bookshelves and get lost by looking through all those nice books. There are also alway beautiful children's books for my little one's, and whenever Wie accumulated too many books at home, we pack them up to donate to the public shelves.

Love this and agree! If you want to take being eco friendly a step further, I read how someone saves water by not using sink water to water her plants. Instead she collects rain water in a huge plastic tote bag and soaks all her plants in the bag that way the plant drinks up all it needs and you're not wasting any fresh water.

Since I’ve become a minimalist I actually buy less books. I love books. I bought books all the time. Never read them. Lol. So now I just use the library and local take/give libraries all the time. If I don’t read the library book I don’t feel bad about money being thrown out.

Hey girl! I absolutely love your channel and I've been watching you for awhile. Thank you so much for opening up my world to minimalism. I just wanted to softly point out that Amazon is not the most ethical, there have been many employees who have spoken out about mistreatments. It is much more effective to buy straight from the source! I know Amazon is so convenient and I often bought from them but Ive been trying to more consciously think about those purchases recently and I just wanted to point that out to you as well! You may already know all of this but I thought it was worth bringing to light. Anyways thank you for all of the wonderful videos and informative content!!

The worst part about netflix is the fact that when a show you liked didn't get enough views, you are very likely to never get another season. It happened to me at least 4 times in the last 2 years and now I decided that I would stop paying just to get this.
