As some of you know I’ve been facing some unexpected health issues lately and have found myself - at times - moving through my daily work and chores slower than I wish, but I keep working towards finding ways to make things a little simpler. It’s been a strange time so I thought I’d share some things that have been bringing me joy as I hopefully near the end of the road and fully recover with the help of my doctor. So important to redefine success and productivity when times like these arise. I couldn’t think how to describe my mindset, but the best I could think of is ‘small living’, being that day-to-day is being prioritized, hour-by-hour. Right now is not the time to plan years in advance, it’s simply to take a deep breath and make today matter. Sending you much love. A special thank you to the creator Princess Liana Rose for reminding me of that beautiful quote by Road Dahl in one of her videos ❤️

I'm on the process of accepting myself that I'm a person with low energy. Sometimes I fall into comparison with others who can do so much things at once without feeling any stress. This causes me to feel useless and unworthy. As I watch this, I become more opened to accept the nature of myself and thanks for those three tips to do. They are very helpful.

Spleen deficiency will do this. Research it. You’ll need to consume foods that give you strong energy like yams, plantain, green banana etc. These contain complex carbohydrates that your body will take hours to burn off & so turn into fuel. Beans are essential for B vitamins & also animal flesh. Sometimes have some liver & red meat. Lastly consume herbs ashwaganda & any kind of ginseng regularly to regulate the adrenal glands.. + sea weed for the thyroid gland & thyroid function. No medicine can cure this. This is a systemic issue that you must take on with your whole chest. Life needs energy. Worse comes to worse partner with someone who has high energy so they can carry you so to speak.

Hello.i do understand I have fibromyalgia and arthritis. It gets really hard some days.take care

I never realized until recently how wonderful it is to do one task at a time. To actually slice an apple slowly, the way you touch or look at a plant. The act of just leaning over to blow out a candle. I am recently semi retired and have never had such long periods of time to myself. I understand the sudden health things that can come to us; the acceptance and knowledge of not knowing and leaning into self care gives us relief - then joy when the body responds and heals.

Thank you Lord for all that you provide. Such beauty in this world! Thank you for this wonderful young woman who then shares your bounty with the rest of us.

I wake up every day not wanting to wake up, unable to face life cause it's just too hard. But I hear my cat crying at my door, a sweeter voice you could never hear, my cats need me, and I get up for the 2 of them, and for a cup of tea, then I take it from there. I wonder though, why won't this dread ever depart? I miss waking up excited and happy. I feel like if I give in to giving up on the struggle in order to embrace peace and happiness, I'll die. One thing I am grateful for is the quiet. I wake up and it's quiet. I am really thankful for that, and I gave that to myself by moving here.

"...I have more anxiety & require more & more recharging just to find peace." Yes.

I’ve listened to this 3x. I cook and bake slowly. I assumed because of being made fun of for being slow, that the time I took to make wholesome meals slowly was less appreciated because of my lack of productivity elsewhere. Then I’d feel intimidated because others are more productive and faster, which left me feeling less confident. Thank you for sharing!! I didn’t know I could accept this and intentionally continue a slow living vibe. I thought my overwhelm meant I had to double down and be more productive, which is…so overwhelming and stressful that I often find myself sick or making poor nutrition choices, especially taking care of 4 young kids. Your self knowledge and descriptive words are so uplifting and help me to understand myself in a new way.

ugh that honey comb looked SO GOOD! I love this topic. I've been chronically ill for 15+ years, and all throughout my twenties i would push my body so much, in order to keep up with my friends in the city. walking from one end of the city , to the other - even that was too much for me. But i would not allow my body to dictate what my personality so desperately longed for. it's been a journey for me, to accept the health i have, now i's 31 and live much more slowly. my personality and how i must live to function, doesn't align. there will always be grief there. But there is nothing more healing and wonderful than when you take care of yourself and your body thanks you for the rest and care that it needed for so long. it is not my body's fault that it is sick. so i shouldn't punish it further. it can be hard to accept yourself.

I have been battling major anemia and there have been many frustrating and discouraging days when I just have zero energy. I have a husband and four daughters that have to eat and wear clothes, gosh darn it haha. So, I make a list of every tiny task I’ve completed, and it’s very uplifting to see. To others it doesn’t seem like all that much, but to me I feel like I climbed mountains ❤ Thankfully through diet changes and supplements, those days are much less.

That pie looked scrumptious! I come from a long line of Amish pie bakers, and when I was a child my mother and grandmother would always take the scraps of pie dough left over from trimming the edges and make me a little pie in my tiny pie pan. I still do that to this day when I make a pie. Or if I don't have enough dough left over for that, I moosh the scraps together, roll them out, cut out fanciful shapes, sprinkle cinnamon-sugar on them, and bake them on a flat pan alongside the pie. If I don't have even enough scraps to do that, I take whatever snippits of dough remain and form a little round shape, roll the edges slightly, and place a dollop of jam in the middle and bake a tiny tartlet. Making pie is such fun...but of course, the most fun is eating it! Thanks for your lovely Sunday video!

All I dream about in this life is good health, my own home and my favorite job. It is so wonderful and valuable when you are healthy and nothing hurts, all tests are good. When you have your own cozy house, albeit small and simple. It's great when there is a quiet job without much stress, somewhere in a small town with friendly and familiar people. I don't need anything more in this life. Of course, there will be failures and problems, but the basis of happiness for me now is only this - health, home, work and a familiar cozy circle of friendly people. I don't even dream of a partner. I wish everyone and everyone to find their place of power, their safe place where you will be calm and well. On weekdays and busy days with stress, quiet streets, houses and coffee shops are especially valuable for calming down.

As a high sensitive person, I struggle a lot with the modern world. Its often too loud for me and I hunger for nature and quiet places. My son is also high sensitive, very clever and creative and I see his daily struggle with school and expectations from other people. He stays calms all the day and keeps it together and at home his energy explodes. Not good for both sides, because for me his frustration and outbursts are also difficult. But going into the forest calms us both. I am sure, he will manage his pent up aggressions one day, but its a way to go... What do we hear most in our lifes? --> "Tear yourself", "It's not that bad", "Stop whining", "You're too sensitive" ... some people are not ment to be in this age and economy world!

Dysautonomia; P.O.T.S. ~ This is is what I have. It’s been several years. Mine is a condition that is ‘invisible’ too. It took years before being diagnosed & receiving help. Some people (including some Dr.’s) did not (do not) understand which is okay with me, but cruelty is not an okay response to not understanding. It was interesting to me that when I went through chemo & radiation for breast cancer seven years ago, people were so eager to help. I had a different kind of mass discovered on my breast this past April which required a mastectomy. Several people responded in some way or another. As for the Dysautonomia/POTS that I live with every day (more painful & draining than cancer was), people seem to be skeptical. SO… I hear you! I understand & I appreciate you! Thank you for commenting.

Hello, I too have a love for lit candles. My mother was deeply afraid of them starting a fire-So, I was never allowed, as an adult, to light any of her many candles that she had on display. And, in my own home, I am always filled with happiness whenever I light all of mine and enjoy them with care. They have the ability to bring a great amount of “warmth” into a home. I am 75 years old and still alive 🤗

I am miraculously unscathed though the phone I was on has been destroyed and we are still without electricity or running water . This video is a bit of a treat here in the dark ! Thank you Paola ...🌻

I love your honesty talking about less energy, sometimes easily overwhelmed and needing to do things slower. I feel there are many people who feel similarly but in this world that admires being busy, moving fast and loud there is a reluctance to admit needing to be slower and more quiet.

You and Isabel are the two channels I come to for inspo and some peace of mind tbh after moving to the Nordic Woods of Sweden. Life hit me pretty hard. I'm actually coming up with a resource that helped me become the man I am today. I used to live in Miami being around street violence, guns, death, and I even used to eat $3 a day, 25 cents noodles, expired toast and canned campbell tomato soup. I survived the Boston Marathon Bombing which was a few feet away and I saw all the blood the people screaming and I was alone at 18. I also used to live in a room with no kitchen, trash bag as a window and bugs crawling on me at night. I also took boxing to protect myself and learned how to defend against bigger threats. Now I live in a cabin in the north of Sweden where I go down to a lake to breathe and heal my past and I post on KZread to help others who need it the most. I'm going to come up with 20 minute mini documentary of all of this soon 💜🙏🏽

Your videos are meditation sessions for me. I am low energy person who is extremely responsible and thus, overwhelms easily when deadlines are approaching and there are a lot of unknown unknowns, meaning no time to prepare in advance. I feel build-up of anxiety during those times. My way of relaxing is creating something for my house that ads to order/neatness/organization. Perhaps I should also add atmosphere into the mix next session (lighting candles, etc.). Knowing that I am not alone and there are ways to cope/adjust is very important, thanks a lot for sharing!

Dealing with anemia and many other health issues, it’s difficult to have “normal” or any sort of energy levels on a daily basis. It’s difficult to not get overwhelmed by the fast paces and pressures of society. Luckily enough through mental healing, I’ve learned to accept my challenges everyday and take everyday as a blessing and a new step of courage and strength each and every day. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful videos and speaking your gentle words, you truly inspire me and motivate me to keep going despite difficulties and you help me stay positive on the hardest days.

Your videos are so calming. The view of your valley at the end was breath taking!

You are speaking to a long neglected audience by addressing low energy. By showing how you are living within your energy parameters, you are setting a good example for those of who also need to accept that this is how we are, and that our low energy level do not need to be fixed.

Thank you for sharing yourself in this channel. It has been a comfort to me. I am a low energy person who often feels ashamed for my extreme sensitivity. I often feel judged, even if that’s just my own criticism for not being all I feel I should be trying to adult and make a way in life. I have found so much wonder, wisdom and beauty in your creativity and thoughts. Thank you!

What a beautiful video. So peaceful and relaxing- I didn't want it to end. Have a blessed day sweet Paola.💞

I can’t imagine my life without my candles too. They Help me to relax, focus on things I enjoy and where there’s light, there’s always hope

I really believe this is your best video yet. Love the squirrel and the cutting of the honey, so relaxing.

Happy October....Thank you Paola for yet again creating such a beautiful video for us All to enjoy!! It made my Sunday to watch this lovely video as it's chilly & raining here on the East Coast. What wonderful photography the way you captured that precious Squirrel up in the tree and the beautiful full Moon. I was so excited to see you baking something special in your kitchen. Your candle light was so lovely also. I'm sure your pie turned out fabulous. I'd love to see a video of you and your husband baking a pie together. I'm sure other's on here would to. Just a thought. Your brother's drone footage was spectacular by the way. Sending Love and positive energy your way Paola ✨️ Be well, be blessed 🧡

I do so look forward to your videos every week. I, too, have struggled with low energy. You have helped me accept and comfort that part of myself. Thank you❤️. (I noticed the cream and sugar bowl right away!🥰

I wouldn't have found a lot of this relaxing music were it not for this channel, so thank you for that!🧚‍♀️❤

This is such a lovely and calming video with a much needed message for us all, thank you.

I'm literally speechless Paola, this was so beautiful and soothing to watch. You and your brother are so talented with the camera, again you have such a gift for making others like myself feel seen and less alone. Thank you for such a healing video and I hope you feel better soon, sending you so much love and light.

I needed this today. I took two days off of studying to just rest and recoup and I was feeling very guilty despite not being behind in my work. You reminded me that I needed this time and I now have more energy to do a better job.

I love candles too. Especially on a chilly Fall night. Your videos are soooo calming. Thank you!!😊

Paola, your lifestyle reminds me a little of Tasha Tudor, also an artist, who illustrated children’s books. She lived a simple lifestyle with no electricity, sewed her own clothes, etc. Your videos are so calming. God Bless.

The more I hear you talk about your life and your struggles, the more I relate with you. I always considered myself HSP, always tired. I need a lot of time to myself, etc. Then I was diagnosed with autism. Everything in my life suddenly clicked into place. I know this word carries a stigma, but autism in female presenting people, is so different than what people generally think. It might be worth wile for you to do a little bit of research on this topic. And if you don't relate, well, that’s okay. In that case, you just learned something new.

I am age 71, and I also fight low energy with multiple Autoimmune Conditions. I have not found many good strategies though. My husband, age 77, no longer drives and has cognitive decline so this means EVERYTHING falls on me. I make his doctor's appointments; I drive him to and from and attend them so that we get the deatils correctly. If anything gets done, the dog walked, the food shopping done, cooking done, laundry done, bills paid, the errands done and so on...it all falls on me. I try to break these chores down to handling several each day to spread them out throughout the week but there are many demands on me very single day so time to rest does not come easy. I am exhausted always and fall into bed each night by 5 p.m.

Hang in there Donna. My heart goes out to you. May God lift you and bless you. Like the Cottage fairy, take it one hour at a time. ❤❤

Giving thanks today and appreciation for the considerable efforts you make to bring these beautiful videos to the eye, ears and hearts of so many.

I have fibromyalgia so I deal with a lot of low energy days, your videos are so inspiring. Being able to watch small snippets of someone's life, someone who also deals with low energy and who still lives a purposeful and content life is so amazing. You soothe my anxiety, and put a stopper in my depression, and you remind me that it's okay to feel low some days, and it's okay to be slower too.

Beautiful woman with amazing soul, thank you so much.

Dear, dear Paola, thank you for sharing the beauty of highly present or "small" living. Those of us who have been touched by the energetic changes that happen in life for any number of reasons, and I am one, are so soothed and uplifted by the profound importance and beauty of your message. Thank you for your practice of finding the kindest relationship to yourself and taking us along. I am so inspired by your spirit and ability to place so much art, enchantment and healing in the world. It's quite a lot of internal and external work and I hope you will not overwork!! We are here for you even when you are resting! Much, much love to you.

What a lovely video and beautiful scenery...... Your hair is so healthy and long. You are so beautiful. Thank you for all your inspirational videos Paola. Greetings from South Africa.

Happy Autumn everyone 🍂 🍁

Happy Autumn! 🍁🌿❤️

Today I was stressed at work which overwhelmed me and led to anxiety and undeserved self criticism. Deep breathing and talking myself down worked for a while but not to the point of success in such situations. It’s a work in progress. I came home to your video and …thank you. It was a great help. Your words resonate deeply. Happy fall.

Unfortunately, as many here seem to, I suffer from severe depression. It is as painful physically as it is emotionally, and I went from the picture of health to almost the exact opposite, in a matter of a couple of years, and my energy level went down immensely. I didn't know my father, but I'm told his depression was so severe, he was often hospitalized for it. Watching these videos helps somewhat, and I don't feel quite as alone as I usually do. The struggle is real, but we don't always have to face it alone, I hope.

Paola, may you be blessed with boundless energy. Sending love.

You are a wonderful human being and I am deeply grateful for your existence and your videos. In times of many insecurities in my case including social anxiety, jealousy and feeling like I am not living the best version of myself - you bring so much light und hope to my heart. I already feel so much better and prepared to give this day the chance to be beautiful and filled with inner peace, little magical moments, forgiveness and love for myself, people around me and wonderful autumn nature. Thank you so so much! All the best to everyone reading this. You are appreciated

Ah Fall, the season of the poets and gentle people. A beautiful episode lit in the low lumen glow of simplicity, fruit pie and sticky sweet honey. So emotionally warm. And tell your brother thank you for that wonderful imagery above the mountain and looking back across the valley. What an ideal place. ✌🏼

Thank you. My young childhood was in Ferndale, Wa. Your videos remind me of my childhood. It was indeed slow living-and provides many wonderful memories.

Paola, you're exceptional. Your creativity & aesthetic sense are mind-blowing! Such a pleasure to see. Thank you for creating your beautiful films.

Thank you for an enchanting video Paola ! You have given us more than you realize may be. Some sweet moments of calm and serenity ! 💕🌷

A shoutout to Rohan for the amazing videography! Paola, loved this video, it was perfect. I love that you release videos on Sunday, where I live it's the day of rest, so it's lovely to have the meditative reminder heading into a new week. 😊

Thank you, he took some of the nature shots for me but the video is predominately my own creation, he has taught me well how to make videos, I’m super thankful for his teaching! Best wishes ❤

looking at the day as many little opportunities for living well, this really fed my heart

Redefining success and productivity is sometimes all we need to gain new perspectives, the equivalent of fresh air.

Thank you for such a comforting, beautiful message and video. Your gentle kindness and quiet strength has brought my worried mind back home again today. Thank you. I hope you can go so, so gently as needed in this chapter. Happy Autumn, With Love 🍂 Xxxxx

Autumn is a beautiful time. Glad you shared with us. Hugs, Donna 🦊
