Hi Connie! I just found your channel today. Thank you so much for your content. I find it very interesting, useful and well presented. Other than many people who comment though I think you talk way too slow, it seems " forced" to me. Thankfully it was easy to increase the speed, so I'm looking forward to watching many more of your videos. All my very best wishes from Germany. Verena
I'm glad you enjoy the videos and have found a way that works well for you to watch. Unfortunately, I am unable to speed up my speech or make it seem less "forced", do to a brain injury I sustained.
Hi Connie! Thank you for your reply, now I do understand. But I want to point out that I did not mean to criticize or offend you in any way. Especially for people like me, whos mothertongue is not English, your clear, calm and structured way of presenting your content makes it easy to understand. Thank you for all the hard work you put into it!
Connie, I just found your videos I am so glad I did,making the day a little more peaceful is the answer. To day ( September 3 ) I just turned 82, which is hard to believe because I not feel that age. My husband Jack says " It's only a number ". So seeing and hearing you is a pleasure. Thank you. From Zarina.
Hi Zarina! 82! What a wonderful gift you have been given to experience life for 82 glorious years. Welcome to our mindful living community. I'm glad you are here. happiness & peace
Comparing ourselves to others is one of the things that destroy us, and social media is definitely one of the reasons why we compare ourselves to others! We could see a lot of successful people and compare as to what we have to them, and puts so much negativity within us! I am working on this now, glad you shared it with us Connie!❤️
I am so enjoying your videos as I am trying to declutter my house to get it ready to put on the market and my husband and I are going to be trying to find a retirement home. And over the last year with Covid 19 realize what really is important and how unimportant objects and material things are! I find your voice and Videos very calming, soothing and inspirational! Thank you so much!
Hello from Colombia (South America). Thanks a lot for what you do. I love your channel... helps me to minimalize an to calm 😉 I have a request, please put the music in a low volume, because sometimes (like in this video) the music is not adding but disturbing. Thanks

Just finding your channel, as of last week. I am so enjoying your calm voice and those eyes! Love your ideas, but I have to turn my volume up really high to hear you well. Keep on churning these out.
Just found you channel and find your videos very valuable on my journey to simplify my life. Actually, just listening to you talking makes me feel more at ease with the world. Thank you Connie for sharing your thoughts and ideas. You are beautiful! 🙏😊Lots of love and greetings from Sweden.
Why for me is pretty much mental health. Also I really like the idea of being well off (but it not being obvious lol) bcuz users won’t be after me or my stuff...Bcuz my lifestyle isn’t showy or extravagant and a lot of them would never know. 😅😅
I would like to say,I love your videos. However, I have so many items, that belonged to my grandparents, and great grandparents. I don't want to let go of them. But, my children and grandchildren, feel no connection to them. What say you, about these beloved treasures?
Great question! Listen to your heart for guidance. Each of our journey are unique to us. If those treasures from your past bring you joy, peace or are useful to you, keep them. Hold each item and connect to it, noticing the feeling you get. If it breaks your heart to let it go, keep it for now. Sending you happiness & joy
Minimalist lifestyle habits have helped me live a happier, simpler life. I hope these tips help you along your minimalist journey.

One of my shopping triggers is going shopping with my mother.She always convinces me I need something.I prefer to go out alone for this reason.
Thank you for the decluttering tips. I have some of everything you mentioned. 🙂

Great advice 😊
Such amazing tips, thank you 💫
the best video thank you
You said in a previous video that you cut your own hair. Would love to see a tutorial :)
I have been asked to give a tutorial on this from a few people now. Looks like I should put it on my list of future videos.
Why for me is pretty much mental health. Also I really like the idea of being well off (but it not being obvious lol) bcuz users won’t be after me or my stuff...Bcuz my lifestyle isn’t showy or extravagant and a lot of them would never know. 😅😅
Fabulous
Fabulous grey hair 👏🏻👍
Oh!Thanks
Connie, I love your outfits and the formula- where do you buy your nice tee shirts and linen pants? Thank you
Thanks so much! My tees come from Banana Republic Outlet. The linen pants and skirts are from JCrew, Target, and TJ Max
@@ConnieRiet oh very nice! Thank you for letting me know
My kryptonite is op-shops (thrift stores) I’m a real second hand rose lol
Beautiful
Hi there dear? Would you be kinda enough to demonstrate how you cut your own hair, please? Thank you for this consideration? 💜
Sure 😊. I have it on my list of videos to make
Awesome look forward to the future clip? 🙏

Music too loud
Ok. Thanks for letting me know, Katie. I'll adjust in future videos.
I like your videos and your life style. Very much. However your music is too loud and annoying.
Thanks for your input Jean. I'll turn it down in future videos
