This woman does an excellent job, too. She always has an excellent message. She teaches on her channel how she transformed her life into being minimal. She shows her wardrobe & how she matches her clothes to own the least she can own. She is a smart cookie, she has a financial degree in something. Her & her husband live in Hawaii & she explains everything, like how by slowing her life down, they then rented out part of their home to afford a calmer lifestyle. All of us Soldiers need to do this because the over stimulation is unhealthy!

Glad I found your page. I love slow living 😊

That’s the definition of a priority: something we HAVE to do. So much toxic “productivity” surrounds us, that even a basic need like sleep has become “ self care” as if it’s an indulgence. Thank you for the gentle reminder of what life can be. ❤️

I love being a hermit, for periods of time. Sitting in a quiet cinema, with popcorn, or going on a hike in nature. You can be your own bestie. One more thing, about sleep, I find its good to "cradle the mind" in that hour before bedtime. Think nice relaxing thoughts, or dont think too much at all ; but certainly, avoid upsetting, draining complicated thoughts. Thank you for your work, I've been an appreciative follower for a long time. ( ps. that little dog is a cutie )

Love that! ❤️

Tech-free mornings and a wind-down routine are such a important part of my day, something that I really look forward to. It helps my mental health imensilly ❤️

As a highly sensitive person, I’m always drained at the end of the day from feeling and sensing things at a heightened level. I really struggle with sleep as I require more than the average person does to truly feel recovered from the constant stimulation around. I enjoyed your video which encourages those to step back from the noise and find balance from the productivity-demanding societies we live in.

It's actually incredible just how strong habits can become, like being on your phone too much. It becomes muscle memory and a part of your day, but the minute you take a trip, spend a few busy days without it etc, you get back on it and wonder what the hell you were even doing on it all those hours. Sometimes you really need to just dive in the deep end with these awful habits and feel the discomfort - it's only a thought you're experiencing, which is an illusion.

This message is so needed for our world right now. I feel like things slowed down during the pandemic then went to 10x speed right afterwards. Thank you for being a voice of wisdom in these crazy times!

The propaganda was going full blast during the ahem "pandemic."

I can so relate to the constant background noise and I'm trying to cut it out a little bit but I have such negative intrusive thoughts these days that if I stay in silence for longer than 5 minutes, I think about painful things and get depressed. I know it's a quick and unhealthy fix for now though, so I'm looking forward to finding other ways to cope. Thank you for that beautiful and thoughful video, I enjoyed it a lot and you are have such a relaxing voice that it truly made me feel at peace for a moment ❤

I've also started catching myself listening to podcast whenever I'd be washing dishes, doing laundry, brushing teeth, flossing, showering. The negative side of this is that constant listening allow me to think, reflect and hear the voice of my conscience, Spirit or God, because my ears are always busy. I am going to start working backwards to allow myself space to think.

I loved this entire video - so many meaningful messages. But I must admit I giggled at “fresh of breath air” at 2:08!🤭

I couldn’t agree more toxic work culture is too much we all need to slow down

I love this. I've recently started to "de-badge" my home too. Listerine bottle gets poured into a label-less bottle. Soap into a label-less bottle. Laundry detergent into a label-less bottle. Little logo sticker on TV removed. Book collection pruned to reflect my current values and interests. As much as possible. Even my art has become really mild and ambient rather than evocative (this one I could see being very personal as compared to the others). It's subtle but has actually added a lot of peace to my bathroom and kitchen especially.

In our world it's easy to forget that we don't need to have the latest item and how important it is to have a safe and calm space. I love watching your videos because it reminds me that I don't need more

Dreadful News Feeds should be kept to minimum. Too much drains the spirit. Just getting out, feeding a few wild birds in a local park boosts positivity and reboots a over stimulated mindset. Welcome back Sophie 🕊 ❤

Fresh of breath air ;) love that realism

I'm Italian and I think that the fact that Italian subtitles are available, is really sweet. Thank you 🌷

For some reason I always thought her name was Malama which is probably a word or something.

this was exactly what i needed to see today, thank you from the bottom of my heart

Thank you so much for this! You just helped me do my chores in silence which allowed me to think thoroughly, and now I have the urge to deep clean and donate my belongings that have been sitting unorganized for months. The importance of space and organization even when it’s hidden is a great reminder for peace.

I always gain this sense of calm and motivation after listening to you. Your work is so valuable to me. Thank you.

it is so great to have you back. Please do continue making videos; they are really like precious gems of wisdom for me

I can identify with you. I love how calm your tone of voice is while you explain these factors that contribute to sensory overload, and learning how to relax, release, and live in the present moment. This is such an important factor to protect your health. Thank you for sharing! ❤

This is just what I needed to hear. I feel like I am often distracting my inner noise with exterior noise and therefore never finding piece. I recently starting "parenting" my phone and putting it to bed at 9:30/10pm to help me get distance from it. Thank you for your videos they are great.

This is the most eye-pleasing and soul-pleasing video I have seen in a very long time.

We have a lot in common. I'm also highly sensitive and intuitive, have problens sleeping and i love peace, quiet and a clean organized space. Great video.looking forward to more from you

Love you my friend! So happy that you have stepped back to take care of yourself, but also so excited to see you back. Your videos are extremely helpful and I can't thank you enough. Love and hugs from Florida!

I really love the way you narrate in your videos plus your voice is relaxing to listen to. I also had been used to having music or podcast while cooking or washing dishes, but one time I forgot my earphones and did the chores anyway. I felt better doing that so I kept doing my chores like that and I realized that I had been exposing myself to too much stimulation since I was either watching videos or listening to something even if I was not doing chores

This video just came across my screen and I am so glad it did. You are so right about all of the stimulation that we receive. As being a "pre technology" child, I can compare the differences that advancement has made in our lives. It is for the good, but it is important to stay healthy with a balance. I, personally, have had sensory issues later in life and understand how precious this detox is. I am looking forward to more of your content. ♥

You have such a calming energy! This video reflects your lifestyle perfectly

Hey Sophie! Thank you so much for this video. I appreciate the work you did to put into this. I am also a highly sensitive person. When I find myself experiencing sensory overload, my partner shuts off all of the lights and closes the blinds. Those small things have definitely helped me to calm my nervous system down.

thank you for this, i needed to hear it. and ill use these for my journey for having less screentime and actually detox digitally. i love you!!

I struggle a lot so I needed this kind of video! Thank you🤍

Your videos always engulf us in a sense of peace we want to emulate in our own daily routines. Thanks for the guidance. Love the way you incorporate quotes at strategic moments. Your scenery, editing, and music are all lovely & perfectly coordinated. Not an easy thing to do. You’re talented & appreciated by all of us 🌞🌸

The way you pick up several topics in a major topic is just flawless 4. You know what messed up minds do to people and how it disturbs the inner peace 5. Your background music itself is a big healer. A big thumbs up to you...keep creating such insightful content on self care & mental healing... ❤️

Watching your videos is so calming for me. Sometimes i watched your videos intentionally for therapy. I wanted to practice my body and mind to focus in the moment and by watching your content allows me to remember that I'm enough (your present being is enough and thats whats important).

Lovely! I'm focusing on monotasking this week and it already feels better💖

This was the most unique, beautiful, and helpful video I’ve encountered in a while. ❤Thank you.

Sophie! Did you read my thoughts from across the ocean!? 😆😱 I am amazed and grateful. Your video is what I have been mulling over the last few days. Wow wow! Thank you so so much for this. I am looking forward to watching this again when I arrive home from work. This message the Universe is wanting me to understand sure has got my attention. I appreciate you Sophie and your content so much. Thank you again 🙏 Instead of complaining, it's time to implement some necessary yet healthy changes in my life 🌟

Always beautiful scenes and a gentle way. Ty.❤

This video came to me from the divine. Its exactly what I needed now :). Been feeling overwhelemed with this constant need to "DO SOMETHING". Just watching this kept my mind at rest. Lots of love to you! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !!

I also visited Seoul lately, I felt the same way as you do... Thank you so much for your videos, they always help to get a breather from hustling daily life or mind!

Glad that you are back! :) A much needed one for me. Thanks and take care.

This was exactly what I needed to hear, thank you Sophie

This is so inspiring 🙌 thanks for spreading your positive energy on what truly self-care is

This couldn’t be more perfect timing! I’m feeling so overwhelmed lately with all the stimulation I’ve been seeking out online lately, making me feel stressed and tired and for what exactly? Great advise and beautifully worded. Time to take responsibility!

Loved watching this vlog. I, too, get overwhelmed by trying to keep pace with today's world. Naturally sometimes I become a hermit. Writing a journal is, in my opinion, the best method of being in touch with your inner self. And that's the most important thing in anyone's life! Btw you've used some excellent quotes!😊

Sophie, I have really missed your videos! It is so great to have you back! I’m glad that you were able to take a much needed break with your family. Thank you for another amazing video and I’m looking forward to your words of wisdom next week! Have a blessed day!🙏🏼💕

Every time I watch one of her videos it kind of is a slap in the face in the kindest way. Open your eyes and analyze. What are you doing right now? Are you present and mindful. Mindfulness is a really weird thing but her videos always help me. I also strongly love that she posts often because every new video is a refresher and reminder to be mindful.

Love your voice, this edit and the message of this video ❤ needed this at the right time! Thank you❤❤❤

This video is awesome. Beautifully shot and full of great advice ❤ subscribed and can't wait to see more.

I am the one who should thank you for introducing me to your beautiful inner world... Lots of Love...

Recently I took a step back from corporate America as it forced me too. I was burnt out and my nervous system took a toll on me. I enjoy slow mornings, nature walks, books, NO more social media only KZread videos sometimes. I am starting a new slow down chapter in 2024.

I can't put my phone down lately, I needed this. Thank you

Thank you so much for this video! I can relate very well. Like you, I am a highly sensitive person. I always enjoy your videos and get very inspired. Thanks!

I love your therapeutic voice. Sometimes I would just listen with my eyes closed❤

Thank you for reminding us of this powerful message. It’s so easy to be distracted and have constant stimulation around us at all times. But when I take the time to be mindful and be silent to be with my thoughts (even though it’s intimating sometimes), I feel much calmer. Thank you for another wonderful video.

This video is so calming and I am doing the same thing a digital detox so far things are pretty good but I still sometimes feel like I need to catch up on social media but I always remind myself why I do a detox and that’s been helpful so this is very relatable and I wear headphones a lot too so sometimes I have to tell myself okay I have to take a break from wearing them. ❤ but thank you so much.

I love your videos. I’ve made it a goal last week to not scroll through instagram when I wake up. I found I spent less time in bed and can just appreciate what’s in front of me more like my husband, my dogs, the morning light, just the quiet and peace. It’s the small things but it helps. I never thought about the constant background noise before but I tend to do that too. I’ll have to take breaks from that from time to time. You videos do help me to calm down and recenter.

So great to see you again! I’ve missed your videos ❤ For a long time I had trouble falling asleep at night. I tried all different methods but I would still lay there in bed with my mind spinning. About a year ago I started to do yoga nidra most everyday for at least ten minutes. I now have the ability to shut my brain off in bed so I almost never struggle to sleep. And on some nights when my partner is still up and about I’ll put in ear plugs to stop any distracting noises. Yoga nidra is quite a powerful thing and I recommend it to everyone ❤🙏
