The art of a slow life
As autumn arrives, I'm reminded of the importance of slowing down and appreciating the little things that make life joyful 🍂. In this video, I share how challenging finding a balance between productivity and embracing slow living can be, especially as the pace of life picks up. Every September, I get a little overwhelmed by seeing the end of the year coming at great pace. The end of summer always happens suddenly, and collapses into autumn.
Spending time embracing autumnal habits has helped grounding myself in time, and appreciate slow and mindful moments.
I've been experimenting a little with this recent video, with the addition of voiceover. I felt that writing subtitles was limiting me to engage with you, and share stories. Let me know what you think 🧡

How I stopped fearing change in life
Переглядів 10 тис.5 місяців тому
Finally back after a couple of months break from UA-cam. I've been taking some time off and went travelling for a few days across France.

I will be back for more videos soon. Thanks for watching 💛 ! Thank...
Slow evening routine | Calm habits to relax at night
Переглядів 26 тис.8 місяців тому
Knowing how to unwind and relax in the evening wasn't always a given, and I had to learn to slow down over the years. Nowadays, bringing calm and peacefulness to my evening routine is something I seek to preserve. There will always be evenings where there won't be much time for relaxing, and where my mind will wander back to stressful matters. It's unavoidable, and that's the main reason I avoi...
Introverted in an extraverted world | Slow living and self-acceptance
Переглядів 23 тис.8 місяців тому
Today I explore a little my journey in this world as an introvert. It hasn't always been simple accepting that my social energy could deplete quickly and that I am naturally quiet and reserved. It took me some time to figure out how to prioritise close-knit friendships and time alone to replenish my energy levels. This world often favours extraversion traits and it can feel unfair when those pe...

Hello everyone, I am finally back after some much needed rest. Today, I am sharing a little about overcoming a recent winter slump and my recovery from a flu. Winter can be a challenging season, often leaving us feeling drained and under the weather. The darkness swallowing us so early in London can make this season appear never-ending. Days have become warmer this month, and I am slowly hoping...

Merry Christmas everyone 🎄💛! This is a short video before I head off to France for spending christmas with my family. Just wanted to share a little how I spend my time off during the end of the year.

    Wow, what a cinematic video, i would like to call you a best actor and director 👏 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤. You are my hero to see the beautiful side of the world, the music and subtitles, and acting, makes me feel conformable in life and it gives me a huge motivation to focus in life more than anything else, such as friendship and relationship and on a team work with my community and friends. Never stop filming your beautiful side, because you are creating a motivation for others to enjoy their basic lifes❤❤❤❤❤

    hey i love your content so so so so much. it's my piece of calm in any kind of storm and one of the top reasons why i love it is because you show the beauty without any external sounds/voiceovers - just the natural sounds. can you please please please continue doing that? i mean no offence, your voiceover was great but those natural sounds i loveeeee! so if you like, i would really love it if you posted more often and with natural sounds! thanks babe <3

    Hey, nice to see you again in YT. It was lovely hearing your voice, for me it's like I'm listening to a poem being read. We don't get to experience Autumn here, but I really love watching this. It's really cozy. I can actually smell the Apple Pie or cinnamon from here haha. Have a great season 🧡🍂. Watching your videos help me slow down after a work day 🍵

    “Somehow life gets in the way of living”, I really resonate with this. Well done you also for trying something different with the voice over, it was nice to see you reading Tales From the Cafe (?), one of my favourite reads so far this year! I hope you are able to enjoy more slow moments this autumn 🧡 my favourite ways to slow down are probably reading, or having a warm bath and meditating 😌

    Allo! Loved the new format of your video. I always wondered what you might sound like...and now I know 😜 very soothing, comforting and in some way a romantic voice ❤ Somewhat European, if I may say so😊 The fonts are very tiny though 😢😢 And like all your viewers here I too look forward to your videos. A kind of calm descends upon me when i watch them. Very comforting indeed. Merci!

The apple pie with ice cream looked good. I don’t eat apple pie unless I have ice cream, lol. I live in the United States and the weather can be unpredictable. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

    September always feels strange to me, like torn between joy and loss. Feeling like I’m missing something, yet waiting for something that isn’t here yet. Autumn is always my favourite, yet I feel immense sadness at the same time, although it’s slipping through my fingers, like sand in an hourglass.
