Just want to make it known because I WISH i had done this in the video, but “mess is morally neutral” is a saying that was originally coined by KC Davis, and it resonated with me so much. Shes a fantastic author, and fellow messy human. She goes by the handle @domesticblisters on TikTok, and I encourage you all to check her out!! ❤
I'm so glad you quoted her! Her book, "How to Keep House While Drowning," changed my life. If you struggle with executive dysfunction as well, please do yourself a huge favor and check out that book ASAP. She's written it with neurodiversity in mind, so it was a very pleasing read. Happy New Year Remi and family! Thank you for all you do!!
Just I tip that worked for our family when I did not have a rumble drier, I was caught with huge piles of closes to wash, so I washed all at home and husband went to launderette to dry it. Worked out not too expensive. My in laws have a electric drier for years now. I enjoy watching you’re videos 😊 keep going 😊
Your videos are like the selfhelp-book nobody ever wrote - because they are insightful, authentic and helpful. Sometimes I watch them for cleaning motivation, sometimes I just like to listen to your musings. i wish you and your family all the best for 2024!
Thank you so much Mimi I enjoyed this video I think most of all I’ve been watching you for a few weeks now and you do help me so much I hope you and your family have a good 2024 there’s New Year’s Eve here and I’m off to work myself thank you again best wishes
I am a 62 y/o gramma who has no reason to watch your video (no one to mess my house here) except I LOVE your videos. I do and will watch every single minute of your videos and listen closely to every word. I want desperately to pass such a lovely way of life to my grandkids.
I don't know how you can be so inspiring and so calming at the same time, but you do it! Sometimes I'm watching, sometimes I'm listening while I do my own cleaning. Either way, it does always feel like hanging out with a friend, and friends make every task seem less daunting, so thanks for that, Remi!
Oh, Remi…listening to you is balm to my soul. Thank you for being so positive as well as so realistic. I struggle with clutter. Listening to you emboldens me. Love and blessings to you.
I'm on old Granny from East Texas in the States. I just want to take a moment & tell you that I absolutely love you. I only had sons & always wanted a daughter. If I could have had a daughter I would have been ecstatic if she turned out 1/2 as kind & well adjusted as you are. You are a wonderful wife, mother, daughter, & friend. This world could use a whole lot more people like you. Don't ever stop being the woman you are & NEVER listen to meanies & green-eyed monsters 💖💖💖 Your little men are just so precious! 💖💖💖
When I’m struggling with doing stuff my friend taught me to do this…when I’m sorting washing to say out loud I’m grateful to have clothes to wash and water and a machine to do it. When I’m washing dishes I say I’m grateful to have food to eat and running hot water to clean them. When I’m cleaning I say I’m glad to have a happy and warm house to clean. Makes me remember that there are always people who don’t have what I do. It’s so easy to forget and I need reminded especially when I’m sulking because I don’t want to do chores😂. You are doing an amazing job and have a beautiful family. Happy new year to you. Hope it’s safe and happy.🎉❤.
I do this too, and find it's really helpful. But I was telling my friend about it the other day, and (whilst acknowledging it's a great outlook to have) she said it is OK occasionally to just have a good moan!! 😅💕
Remi you angel, I was on the verge of tears looking at my trashed kitchen and overwhelming piles of laundry. I can't thank you enough for the deep breath and burst of energy this video gave new. Happy new year to you!
I'm tackling my big pile of clean clothes to put away whilst I listen to your video. It's NYE and I wish I had friends to celebrate with 💔 but hearing you speak to me as if I'm a friend has really helped me feel better about things this evening. Thank you x
Thank you for being a real person. Not in full makeup, just back from the salon, cleaning a brand new clean home with nothing in it but designer furniture, and a perfect kitchen. Awesome work!!❤😊
You have made so much progress!! This was a monumental clean! The bath setup at the end was spa-like. Way to go and well deserved, but well deserved every day if the week, whether your house is clean or not! You will be ready to write your own book soon! Bravo!
I don’t know why but that little moment while you were writing and your son came by and you two smiled at each other was really heart warming. Something to truly aspire to!
Dear Remi you have no idea how much I needed a video like this one at the moment. I won’t get into details but thank you, thank you, thank you!!! And a happy New Year to you and your family!
I've been watching your channel after appearing across it one Saturday Evening. As a mum whom has not been given a diagnosis of OCD (From an early age), and would have a cardiac arrest or a break down if my home became full of clutter and mess (Despite there only been 1 child), watching your videos have became my therapy. Sitting down watching you clean and tidy, as well as involving your family during it all has given me a sense of relief on a night. It enables me to relax and just take a step back when life gets on top of you. Everything within your videos I find soothing, comforting and creates inner peace. My husband is exactly like myself and he even enjoys watching you! 😊 I've been watching your journey on UA-cam from the very start when you were just getting to grips. I'm so proud of you Remi! ❤ Love from my family to yours! Xx Xx
You’re an absolute star Remi…I particularly love the way you make time for the boys whilst you’re so busy, and teaching them these life skills is priceless. Well done girl…I’m so glad you had that wonderful bath and a little me time - you so deserve it. God bless you; your boys will grow up to be capable, balanced people who are a joy to know all because of you. My boys thrived on a calm and orderly environment, and it’s the hardest work, but it will pay off in the end! Be proud of yourself ❤
I was so excited to see a super long video, I knew it was going to be amazing before I even popped it on. Thank you so much for this. Your vibes are healing for the soul. ❤
I absolutely love the "chatter". I love your videos. They're so unique. It's really given me insight as to how I should be with my own kids and building proper cleaning habits and to have grace on myself. Thanks for that💕
It is so relaxing and therapeutic for me to listen to your voice overs. You are such a profound person, and this is something rare and precious. Wish you and your family a gorgeous 2024. Lots of love from Italy ❤
Remi, this is amazing! It's comforting and motivating at the same time. You definitely could be a therapist or motivational speaker. Have a great New Years!!!
Honestly I used to think I could do the tidy along as I go but I’ve come to realise I am a lot like you Remi!! I’d go round other folks houses and they would be spotless and they would have so much more on their daily plate than me and I used to feel so lazy and unproductive but now after watching and listening to you I know that it is ok and to give myself more praise! I used to find it mentally draining to always try to keep on top of things and it just made me feel worse so I now no longer follow YT videos of this nature and just follow you. Thankyou Remi for being like me 😄🤗❤
I am in my 60’s and I am completely learning to change my mindset over my executive dysfunction and cleaning. I owe you a big thanks, you really know how to speak to people with depression and anxiety. ❤
Your channel is such a gentle, kind, encouraging space. I am listening to this video like a podcast as I am back at work after the holiday break. Your voice is so soothing and I love your accent as well!
I need to clean my house and pack my family for a trip, woke up so overwhelmed. Laid in bed and watched this, now I feel ready to tackle the day. Thank you!
Woohoo, seven months is a darned long time! Little Rudi is just warmin my heart 💜 Him decorating the cushions, being a tripping hazard afterwards.. my highlight! Happy new year Remi! I liked the length of this video, that your little black fluff was jumping everywhere, and the way you tackled it all. Your attitude is amazing, your boys really got lucky with you 🍀 And if you are lazy, I don’t want to know what many of us viewers are 😂
I like to hear your voice over with your tips and what you’re doing, while I’m cleaning. It encourages me to clean. When I’m resting, I watch the video of your actual cleaning. So, both video and voice over have its helpful purposes. Got the dishes done and silver polished while listening to this one 😉
Starting to come out of a depressive episode - thank you for the effort you put into your content. Your clean with me videos are just so real and help me to get going to care for myself and my home.
Remi watching your videos and realising that I’m not alone in my struggles is like a breath of fresh air. To see someone who is just like me, I’m 38 and have adhd and struggle to keep my home clean with my 3 kids and night shift worker husband. I see homes on Pinterest and UA-cam and they are beautiful and clean and put together at all times and I want to be like that, but I’m just not. I have doom piles of laundry and random crap that I haven’t put away and it makes me feel like a failure cos it’s not like the homes I see online. To see a home that is real and lived in is so refreshing. Your transformation at the end was very satisfying and you should be so proud of yourself for what you achieved in just one day.
For what its worth, i had stopped watching many other cleaning channels bc the music they chose was depressing or about partners breaking up or falling out of love.. I couldnt take it anymore and i learned to mute them just play them on the tv so i could have someone clean with me still. Then your channel popped up and i fell in love! Your channel has already helped me so much with all your positive affirmations! My new year started on the right track bc of you Remi!!!!!
Love you, Remi! Honestly, when I look at the before pictures, I just see small, busy space, with young kid and a working mom, during the holiday season! Its the everyday toys, laundry and dishes. Not terrible, lazy or selfish. Normal for the conditions. I bet you had lots of fun with the kids over the holidays, and that's what they will remember right down to their souls. One tip that worked for me with my kids play dates when they were old enough: I would let them know half an hour before their friend had to leave that they could either keep playing and do the clean up later on their own, or they could spend the last of the play time cleaning with their friend. It's amazing how motivated they were to get their friends to pitch in! We did the same at our friends house, too, cleaning up before we left. For the dishes in the sink, I have a dish pan on the side for dirty dishes that are rinsed and stacked, but waiting to be washed. That leaves my sink free, and lets me move the dirty dishes out of the way when space is in short supply. For drying your laundry indoors, would it help to have a couple of wall-hung air dryers that fold up when not in use? Cooking tip - save yourself the bother of peeling potatoes. The skin provides more vitamins and fibre, so there's no guilt! Funny, but I need a plan for most things in my life. I follow routines when I wake and when I go to bed. If I don't have to always decide what's next, I save a lot of time. Find what works and stick to it! My best tip for clutter is to use vertical space. Wall shelves, book cases with baskets, cupboards. New, cheap, second hand, or hand-me-downs - tidy doesn't have to be expensive. Having a check list is SO satisfying!! Thanks for the reminder to be kind to ourselves :) I appreciate - both as a child and as a parent - the chat about acknowledging the messages we have been taught, but taking responsibility for our own inner voice. Love the star machine! Just curious, why was the bath bomb in a cloth? xo 💜
I really love the idea of having a slow cooker meal going while you clean! I don't know why I haven't thought about that before, but I'm glad you said it! Genius!
Ah remi your little boy helping you stirring the food bless him.sorting out washing clothes it never stops.thank you for all you give to us that love watching you ❤❤
I'm calling it now..... This is, without doubt, the best channel. Normally with decluttering videos, it feels like I'm being told "this should be here, that should be there".... This channel feels like a conversation, very personable. You feel like a welcomed guest. You've become Family for me now. Thanks for keeping me company while I tidy up and talking to me ❤👍🏽
Remi I love your voiceovers. They are so therapeutic. If you ever do a podcast I would definitely subscribe. Thank you for this motivation. I can’t wait for 2024 content ✨✨✨ Happy New Year!!!🎉🎉🎉
To anyone, who beats themselves up about their mess, like i used to - small spaces with little storage are so much harder to keep neat... not everything is always your fault. Hat off for the work youre doing Remi, to help people stop beating themselves up and find routines that work for them. You're a star!
Hi Remi! Just a tip from a mom about toys.have a place where you have room to store groups of toys. Rotate them with other toys. Clean up easy and learning enhanced. Thank you for your video
In a social media world of picture perfect immaculate houses it’s so wonderful to see a very normal family home. Thank you!!!! Happy new year to you and your family x
Can I just say, If you ever did a podcast I would be a loyal listener 😌 I love listening to you discuss sifferent topics and I've learned a lot about self compassion from your videos. Your videos are a breath of fresh air 🍃🌻
Remi, your videos continue to amaze me! The explanations for certain behaviors, your insight and empathy is encouraging and calming in a troublesome world. I think this is probably my favorite video so far. May you and your family have a blessed new year! ❤
Remi, I completely understand "Mom-guilt"! But I sure appreciate how you try to integrate spending time with them into your routine! Watching your baby "cook" with you just meted my heart!
The motivation in this video is huuuuge. My home often looks like this and worse and I feel utterly paralysed often to get started or to keep going and this was exactly what I needed!! Happy New Year to the most relatable and authentic UA-camr out there! Another wonderful and compassionate video thank you Remi xx
I love watching you clean as well as hearing our narration. I think one thing that makes a huge difference is having a partner that is supportive and trusting that things will get done when they get done.
When I see you’ve posted a new video, I use it as a reward for getting some chores done. Love both your cleaning tips and voiceovers. Happy New Year! Looking forward to declutter January! ❤️
I just discovered your channel and love it so much. Cleaning videos always calm me down, but I often play them in the background, so I love it when there's a voiceover. So whoever tells you to stop talking or shut up, please don't, because there will always be someone who enjoys it. I love listening to stories and am so happy I found you. Keep doing what you're doing!!!
I really needed to see this video today! My parents have been giving me a hard time due to the *state of my house* baring in mind im 13 weeks pregnant, moved 2 weeks before christmas and then obviously had christmas, all this and being poorly with preg symptoms the house has got on top of me!! Yesterday i gutted the lounge and kitchen and made me feel so much better but getting there takes time! My mum just doesnt get it 😢 she just thinks im being lazy! Everything you said is so so right! My 4 year old alsn has adhd and every day seems hard but i wont give up and i will keep watching your videos for inspo! ❤
Thank you to the youtube algorithm for bringing me this video. I am you and you are me! I suffer with executive dysfunction, mum guilt and a messy house. Your video is so motivating and inspiring. I just want to love my home and I can't function with the mess. It's so true that for us, a normal cleaning routine doesn't work.
Been going through some bad stuff & just listening to you is so soothing so positive & I'd like to thank you for that ❤ little Ike in his Halloween pj's such a squishy 💙 & mushroom at the end playing with her stuffie 🐾🐾 such a wholesome family. My best wishes for you & your family in 2024 xxx
Happy new year everyone , hope you get as much strength out of these videos as I do. Can't explain it any better, but thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Remi I love watching you clean you have such a healthy look on life. The house looked great after cleaning up. Happy Holiday enjoy your happy home. Luv hearing you talk. Keep up all the great videos.
I’m a new subscriber so I’m watching older videos and I didn’t click on this one expecting to have a cry but here I am crying. I hope you know how helpful you are and how caring you sound. It’s just like I’m catching up with an old friend when I’m watching your videos.
You videos have really helped me figure out how to stay on top of things at my own house. I don’t have kids but I do have a dog who likes to take every toy from his bin out each day lol but I found what works for me is cleaning in bursts. I set a reminder in my phone to clean for 30 minutes every day and I vary which spots I choose based on necessity so it’s often the kitchen or bathroom but it might also me just doing a task like switching out the bedsheets or doing a load of laundry and for me that really works. Our house is still cluttered in a lot of areas but it’s livable and cozy and some days I have more energy and get a lot more done like organizing a cabinet but having the routine of cleaning every day even just a little makes it less overwhelming
Dear Remi, I can relate to your story. I am looking after my grandchild whose single parent is an artist who has got another day job. ADHD is also in the picture. Life is never boring! I think your approach to celebrate your home and daily life through your art is brilliant. Rhythm and flow, both of the visuals and text, are beautiful. It makes me think that taking care of our dwellings is such a significant part of culture. Your videos also show the repetitiveness of tasks, and I came to think how repetition is a central characteristic of housework. Repeating familiar tasks also frees the mind to think about things or to share thoughts with others. Like you do sharing your wisdom with us. Thank you so much for your beautiful work! Wish you all the best for the New Year!
Thank you, friend. I listened as I put Christmas away. Got me motivated because my adhd brain kept me a bit paralyzed and couldn't get myself going. I am grateful for you 💛
It's a deep clean! I do what you do weekly. Have your magnesium level checked. It made a big difference to me. You are also a great free head doctor. Your methods, tricks of getting the damn job done, your organization and identity what type of cleaning products to use on what. It's your dialogue that makes you real. I for one love listening to how you explain real life and limits of what you can do and not do. Lastly, don't read what negative folks feel the need to tell you. This is why we have a delete button. Don't give them free rent in your head! You are amazing just the why you are!!
You accompanied me on my walk home late at night through my city. Most men i know are too scared to come downtown during the day, let alone walk alone at night. Nothing scares me anymore--nothing. But i don't always have a smile on my face for the people i pass. I did tonight. Thank you, my dear.
Remi..just finished your video and I can’t tell how much I enjoy them. You are an incredible young lady who really has wisdom beyond your years. What a lovely setting to see as you ended the video. You really know how to set the mood. You certainly deserve it❤️
I watch for the cleaning AND speaking! so relaxing and I am always learning something new! It's just me and my hubby and while we don't make much clutter, I find I am always aware of certain things and that they give me anxiety, like unmade bed, couch blanket is unfolded, clothes are strewn where they shouldn't be. My husband has grown accustomed to finding his pajamas folded on a made bed. He is a neat man though! he always cleans up the bathroom when it needs it, I didn't know that not a lot of men do this! I love watching Remi Clogs videos becuase it motivates me to tidy and she continues to validate the love of a clean and tidy space. it really is the best to relax in!
Remi, a suggestion for drying your laundry - if you don’t already have one, you can get an indoor drying rack. There are a few different types. Amazon had some in their days deals a few days ago. The one that had flat pieces on each side would allow for flat drying larger things and other parts to hang other pieces on. If it helps get things done it may be worth it to you. Happy New Year and God bless you and family! ♥️💕🙏😊
We have a clothes horse? I’m not sure if that’s the same thing? 😊 we also had a heated dryer but Ike kept scalding himself on it, so we had to get rid 🤦🏻♀️ I’ll definitely have a look over on Amazon, thank you for the suggestion! And happy new year ❤️
I have a drying rack high on the wall in the bathroom. I made it out of an old childrends bed, but you can buy them, even foldable. I can hang the cloths even directly on the hangers, they dry better, and dont take up any space if i forget them :-) @@remiclog
You are my favorite person to watch 💖 I love the videos and the chats. You help me to remember that I am enough and my best is great just the way it is😊
I first found your videos a couple of days ago. I, like you, have always stuggled with been an untidy person but I have been listening to your longer deep clean videos while I have been tackling my own house which got into a right state. Thank you I love your vouce overs and it feels like I've got my mate here to have a natter with while I clean. Just while I was listening to this video, I managed to clean my living room. I even got the cleaning kit out and cleaned all the pen marks and stuck on biscuit crumbs off the settee. First thing I did was put the fairy lights on and lit the candels so it would look cosy and smell nice while I was cleaning. Thank you for being my new cleaning buddy. I will see you in another video while I tackle the kitchen and dining area. I'm not giving up now girl you've got me motivated and im so glad I'm not the only one who goes from cleaning a cupboard to finding an old birthday card to then going through old photo albums. I always assumed something was wrong with me because I couldn't stick to anything . Thank you for telling and showing me I'm not alone, im not a bad mother for leaving things to get messy, and im not a bad person for not getting everything done in 20 mins and keeping my house sparkling all day everyday ❤
Thank you for your videos. You have been so motivational for me. I struggle with a lot of overwhelm with cleaning and not feeling well because of anxiety. I keep rewatching your videos and I am finally starting to make progress. Thank you so much
I don't know why I teared up when you put the star machine on but you deserved that calming bath so much. I struggle with many of the same issues and you are right that the fleeting moments of having a calm and tidy space make the mammoth cleans worth it. Great video, thanks.
Thank you! I'm so happy to have discovered your channel this past year. When I finally get the motivation to start cleaning, I binge your cleaning videos because they are a source of calm for me, like a friend encouraging me to keep going with kind and insightful words. I just can't thank you enough! Have a wonderful New Year celebration, and I am looking forward to your videos in 2024. 🤗
I love how you were cooking with your youngest, little ones are almost always part of it and it's amazing how well they do when included, they usually exceed our expectations!
Happy new year to you and your beautiful family - Thankyou for the incredible vlogs over the last year and pointing out “none of us are perfect” - life is for living❤
Rémi, I love your videos. I am about to retire and just now realizing I have ADHD. I am so encouraged by your honesty, openness and vulnerability. You inspire me. You are freakin AMAZING ! Keep up the good work. Lyne
Remi - Wonderful video on so many levels. It's just what I needed today. I wish you and your family a lovely New Year's and here's to 2024! 🎉Love and hugs and smiles from Michigan, U.S.A. Blessings - Judith 🎭🎤
I LOVE your videos! I love how you show real life cleaning for a real family. Not a house that looks like an Instagram post, with everything matching and shiny, but a real home with REAL expectations. It’s WONDERFUL! It makes me feel better about my situation. (I’m someone who prefers a tidy house, but can’t always get it done because of a chronic illness.) Your videos are so encouraging! Much love from the U.S.! ❤
I enjoyed this longer video very much and was just amazed at everything you got accomplished 🙌 👏 Good job. ♥️ I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas. I am watching this on New Year's Eve here in the US and you've inspired me to get some things done this evening so I can start the New Year off without a lot of work to do 😊 Happy New Year, Remi. 🎉❤
This video inspired me to pause twice and take the load of laundry out of the dryer, fold them, and put them away. The second time I clean up my bathroom counter and put some new things in the shower. It wasn't a lot but it made a huge difference. I finished the video just listening and watching :)
Remi, have you heard of the Minimal Mom videos on youtube? I think you might find them useful. You have a toddler, so for the next three years or so, your house will be a bit messy. Some other mommies have moved all toys to a play area in the house, or the child's bedroom, instead of the living room. One Mommy put up a little fenced-in area in a room with toys inside and no toys alllowed outside of the fence! Because, as you know, toys migrate to be near Mommy! But don't berate yourself over this because your babies are happy, loved, warm, fed, clean, cared for and that's what's really important. When they are older and all your systems are in place, things will be easier. Wonderful video. You are so understanding and encouraging. Listening to you, I feel so much better about my own situation and I'll bet many other women feel the same way. Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing. Have you thought about decluttering clothing and toys and everything else? It might help and make life easier for you.
I just want to let you know listening to you talk about self improvement and how to function keeping house while not damaging your kids is helping me heal my inner child in a small way. Your content, character, and simply your voice are a great comfort and I’m sure I’m not the only person who feels that way. ❤
Your rambling is definitely what makes your videos feel like you’re just hanging with a mate and encouraging each other :) you deserve all the lovely bubble baths
Do u just love these videos How helpful and very interesting and motivated, and I can't thank you enough for how they have helped me since u moved to these channel u tube again, sending much love and appreciation ❤️
Just want to make it known because I WISH i had done this in the video, but “mess is morally neutral” is a saying that was originally coined by KC Davis, and it resonated with me so much. Shes a fantastic author, and fellow messy human. She goes by the handle @domesticblisters on TikTok, and I encourage you all to check her out!! ❤
Allison Hammond advert! Once step closer to bein on loose women remi.. yes please!
I'm so glad you quoted her! Her book, "How to Keep House While Drowning," changed my life. If you struggle with executive dysfunction as well, please do yourself a huge favor and check out that book ASAP. She's written it with neurodiversity in mind, so it was a very pleasing read. Happy New Year Remi and family! Thank you for all you do!!
Just I tip that worked for our family when I did not have a rumble drier, I was caught with huge piles of closes to wash, so I washed all at home and husband went to launderette to dry it. Worked out not too expensive.
My in laws have a electric drier for years now.
I enjoy watching you’re videos 😊 keep going 😊
Ps I find your voice so calming and like to listen as I clean xx
Happy New Year to you and you're beautiful family!
Your videos are like the selfhelp-book nobody ever wrote - because they are insightful, authentic and helpful. Sometimes I watch them for cleaning motivation, sometimes I just like to listen to your musings. i wish you and your family all the best for 2024!
What a lovely thing to read, thank you! 🥰 I wish the same for you and yours! I hope it’s a fantastic year for us all 🤞🏼✨
I agree.
Exactly 😊
woman you are the best
Thank you so much Mimi I enjoyed this video I think most of all I’ve been watching you for a few weeks now and you do help me so much I hope you and your family have a good 2024 there’s New Year’s Eve here and I’m off to work myself thank you again best wishes
I am a 62 y/o gramma who has no reason to watch your video (no one to mess my house here) except I LOVE your videos. I do and will watch every single minute of your videos and listen closely to every word. I want desperately to pass such a lovely way of life to my grandkids.
Your just 62 not 92😂❤❤ still have reason to watch this
I just meant that my house is not a problem usually.
I’m 73 years old and this young lady has made me understand my own cleaning issues. Thank you so much. Tomorrow I’ll start my clean - happily.
Hello dear soul ❤ how is your cleaning so far? 😊 you stayed motivated until next day?
I say that every single and go to bed at night feeling like a failure.
@@Barbara-l1rdon’t stress every day a new day start very small ❤
I just watch for your story and thought provoking commentary. “Mess is morally neutral!” Brillant
The fantastic words of KC Davis, or “Domesticblisters” on TikTok 😊
I love that so much. I feel that's going to revolutionize my views of housekeeping.
I don't know how you can be so inspiring and so calming at the same time, but you do it! Sometimes I'm watching, sometimes I'm listening while I do my own cleaning. Either way, it does always feel like hanging out with a friend, and friends make every task seem less daunting, so thanks for that, Remi!
Oh, Remi…listening to you is balm to my soul. Thank you for being so positive as well as so realistic. I struggle with clutter. Listening to you emboldens me. Love and blessings to you.
I'm on old Granny from East Texas in the States. I just want to take a moment & tell you that I absolutely love you. I only had sons & always wanted a daughter. If I could have had a daughter I would have been ecstatic if she turned out 1/2 as kind & well adjusted as you are. You are a wonderful wife, mother, daughter, & friend. This world could use a whole lot more people like you. Don't ever stop being the woman you are & NEVER listen to meanies & green-eyed monsters 💖💖💖 Your little men are just so precious! 💖💖💖
When I’m struggling with doing stuff my friend taught me to do this…when I’m sorting washing to say out loud I’m grateful to have clothes to wash and water and a machine to do it. When I’m washing dishes I say I’m grateful to have food to eat and running hot water to clean them. When I’m cleaning I say I’m glad to have a happy and warm house to clean. Makes me remember that there are always people who don’t have what I do. It’s so easy to forget and I need reminded especially when I’m sulking because I don’t want to do chores😂. You are doing an amazing job and have a beautiful family. Happy new year to you. Hope it’s safe and happy.🎉❤.
Such a good mantra xxx
You're absolutely correct in your thought process. Gratitude changes the way we deal with things 😊
I do this too, and find it's really helpful. But I was telling my friend about it the other day, and (whilst acknowledging it's a great outlook to have) she said it is OK occasionally to just have a good moan!! 😅💕
Remi you angel, I was on the verge of tears looking at my trashed kitchen and overwhelming piles of laundry. I can't thank you enough for the deep breath and burst of energy this video gave new. Happy new year to you!
💕💕✨
I'm tackling my big pile of clean clothes to put away whilst I listen to your video. It's NYE and I wish I had friends to celebrate with 💔 but hearing you speak to me as if I'm a friend has really helped me feel better about things this evening. Thank you x
I’m alone too. My daughter is asleep in bed. But I’m trying to find happiness in the peace of being alone x
All around the world, Remi’s friends can be friends to one another! Best wishes to you 🌷
Happy New Year, Friend!
Happy New Year! 🎉
Happy new year, online friend! Cheers to you!
Thank you for being a real person. Not in full makeup, just back from the salon, cleaning a brand new clean home with nothing in it but designer furniture, and a perfect kitchen. Awesome work!!❤😊
Thank you, Remi.
You are a truly lovely person.
I'm sending you love and very best wishes to you and your family for 2024. ❤
This is so kind of you! Thank you! Sending the same to you and yours! ❤️
3 minutes in and I’m in tears. Finally don’t feel alone in not having that perfect home everyone else seems to have xxx
You’re definitely not alone, so many of us here on this channel are the same ❤️
@@remiclog I would love to know what you watch / listen to for motivation and to get you in a great mindset.
@@princesspixiepeewee My thought as well.
Calming the chaos is an empowering way to end the year, for all of us and the little ones too. Thank you for your inspiring videos this year. 🎉
I totally agree!! And thank YOU for watching! ☺️
You have made so much progress!! This was a monumental clean! The bath setup at the end was spa-like. Way to go and well deserved, but well deserved every day if the week, whether your house is clean or not! You will be ready to write your own book soon! Bravo!
I don’t know why but that little moment while you were writing and your son came by and you two smiled at each other was really heart warming. Something to truly aspire to!
Awwww...I just love how your little guy helps you cook!! Such good skills you are teaching him while making happy memories and a loving home!!
Dear Remi you have no idea how much I needed a video like this one at the moment. I won’t get into details but thank you, thank you, thank you!!! And a happy New Year to you and your family!
I've been watching your channel after appearing across it one Saturday Evening. As a mum whom has not been given a diagnosis of OCD (From an early age), and would have a cardiac arrest or a break down if my home became full of clutter and mess (Despite there only been 1 child), watching your videos have became my therapy. Sitting down watching you clean and tidy, as well as involving your family during it all has given me a sense of relief on a night. It enables me to relax and just take a step back when life gets on top of you. Everything within your videos I find soothing, comforting and creates inner peace. My husband is exactly like myself and he even enjoys watching you! 😊
I've been watching your journey on UA-cam from the very start when you were just getting to grips. I'm so proud of you Remi! ❤
Love from my family to yours! Xx
Xx
You’re an absolute star Remi…I particularly love the way you make time for the boys whilst you’re so busy, and teaching them these life skills is priceless. Well done girl…I’m so glad you had that wonderful bath and a little me time - you so deserve it. God bless you; your boys will grow up to be capable, balanced people who are a joy to know all because of you. My boys thrived on a calm and orderly environment, and it’s the hardest work, but it will pay off in the end! Be proud of yourself ❤
I was so excited to see a super long video, I knew it was going to be amazing before I even popped it on. Thank you so much for this. Your vibes are healing for the soul. ❤
I absolutely love the "chatter". I love your videos. They're so unique. It's really given me insight as to how I should be with my own kids and building proper cleaning habits and to have grace on myself. Thanks for that💕
Oh, Remi! How nice! I loved the star machine! What a nice ending to a hard-working day: lavender, candles and stars on the ceiling!!
It is so relaxing and therapeutic for me to listen to your voice overs. You are such a profound person, and this is something rare and precious. Wish you and your family a gorgeous 2024. Lots of love from Italy ❤
Remi, this is amazing! It's comforting and motivating at the same time. You definitely could be a therapist or motivational speaker. Have a great New Years!!!
Thank you so much!!! ☺️ I hope you have a great one too! ✨
“Cleaning the same spaces Over and Over again” resonated with me so much. I work at an animal shelter, talk about repetition! But I love it ❤️
It made me smile to see the young lad helping in the living room
Just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos. I am 65 and grandmother but love your kindness and way of sharing and thinking thank you so much . 😊
Definitely a well deserved, relaxing bubble bath at the end of a busy day! ❤
Honestly I used to think I could do the tidy along as I go but I’ve come to realise I am a lot like you Remi!! I’d go round other folks houses and they would be spotless and they would have so much more on their daily plate than me and I used to feel so lazy and unproductive but now after watching and listening to you I know that it is ok and to give myself more praise! I used to find it mentally draining to always try to keep on top of things and it just made me feel worse so I now no longer follow YT videos of this nature and just follow you. Thankyou Remi for being like me 😄🤗❤
I talk to myself like I'm a toddler sometimes!! 😂
I am in my 60’s and I am completely learning to change my mindset over my executive dysfunction and cleaning. I owe you a big thanks, you really know how to speak to people with depression and anxiety. ❤
Your channel is such a gentle, kind, encouraging space. I am listening to this video like a podcast as I am back at work after the holiday break. Your voice is so soothing and I love your accent as well!
I need to clean my house and pack my family for a trip, woke up so overwhelmed. Laid in bed and watched this, now I feel ready to tackle the day. Thank you!
Woohoo, seven months is a darned long time!
Little Rudi is just warmin my heart 💜 Him decorating the cushions, being a tripping hazard afterwards.. my highlight!
Happy new year Remi! I liked the length of this video, that your little black fluff was jumping everywhere, and the way you tackled it all. Your attitude is amazing, your boys really got lucky with you 🍀
And if you are lazy, I don’t want to know what many of us viewers are 😂
Your voice isn’t annoying. These videos are exactly what I needed. Thank you!!
I like to hear your voice over with your tips and what you’re doing, while I’m cleaning. It encourages me to clean. When I’m resting, I watch the video of your actual cleaning. So, both video and voice over have its helpful purposes. Got the dishes done and silver polished while listening to this one 😉
Starting to come out of a depressive episode - thank you for the effort you put into your content. Your clean with me videos are just so real and help me to get going to care for myself and my home.
Remi watching your videos and realising that I’m not alone in my struggles is like a breath of fresh air. To see someone who is just like me, I’m 38 and have adhd and struggle to keep my home clean with my 3 kids and night shift worker husband. I see homes on Pinterest and UA-cam and they are beautiful and clean and put together at all times and I want to be like that, but I’m just not. I have doom piles of laundry and random crap that I haven’t put away and it makes me feel like a failure cos it’s not like the homes I see online. To see a home that is real and lived in is so refreshing. Your transformation at the end was very satisfying and you should be so proud of yourself for what you achieved in just one day.
For what its worth, i had stopped watching many other cleaning channels bc the music they chose was depressing or about partners breaking up or falling out of love.. I couldnt take it anymore and i learned to mute them just play them on the tv so i could have someone clean with me still. Then your channel popped up and i fell in love! Your channel has already helped me so much with all your positive affirmations! My new year started on the right track bc of you Remi!!!!!
Love you, Remi!
Honestly, when I look at the before pictures, I just see small, busy space, with young kid and a working mom, during the holiday season! Its the everyday toys, laundry and dishes. Not terrible, lazy or selfish. Normal for the conditions.
I bet you had lots of fun with the kids over the holidays, and that's what they will remember right down to their souls.
One tip that worked for me with my kids play dates when they were old enough: I would let them know half an hour before their friend had to leave that they could either keep playing and do the clean up later on their own, or they could spend the last of the play time cleaning with their friend. It's amazing how motivated they were to get their friends to pitch in! We did the same at our friends house, too, cleaning up before we left.
For the dishes in the sink, I have a dish pan on the side for dirty dishes that are rinsed and stacked, but waiting to be washed. That leaves my sink free, and lets me move the dirty dishes out of the way when space is in short supply.
For drying your laundry indoors, would it help to have a couple of wall-hung air dryers that fold up when not in use?
Cooking tip - save yourself the bother of peeling potatoes. The skin provides more vitamins and fibre, so there's no guilt!
Funny, but I need a plan for most things in my life. I follow routines when I wake and when I go to bed. If I don't have to always decide what's next, I save a lot of time. Find what works and stick to it!
My best tip for clutter is to use vertical space. Wall shelves, book cases with baskets, cupboards. New, cheap, second hand, or hand-me-downs - tidy doesn't have to be expensive.
Having a check list is SO satisfying!!
Thanks for the reminder to be kind to ourselves :) I appreciate - both as a child and as a parent - the chat about acknowledging the messages we have been taught, but taking responsibility for our own inner voice.
Love the star machine! Just curious, why was the bath bomb in a cloth?
xo 💜
I really love the idea of having a slow cooker meal going while you clean! I don't know why I haven't thought about that before, but I'm glad you said it! Genius!
Ah remi your little boy helping you stirring the food bless him.sorting out washing clothes it never stops.thank you for all you give to us that love watching you ❤❤
I'm calling it now..... This is, without doubt, the best channel. Normally with decluttering videos, it feels like I'm being told "this should be here, that should be there"....
This channel feels like a conversation, very personable. You feel like a welcomed guest. You've become Family for me now. Thanks for keeping me company while I tidy up and talking to me ❤👍🏽
Remi I love your voiceovers. They are so therapeutic. If you ever do a podcast I would definitely subscribe. Thank you for this motivation. I can’t wait for 2024 content ✨✨✨
Happy New Year!!!🎉🎉🎉
That’s a real compliment, thank you!!! Happy new year, I hope it’s great to you ❤️
I agree. Your content is excellent but your soothing voice is my second favorite thing about your videos!
To anyone, who beats themselves up about their mess, like i used to - small spaces with little storage are so much harder to keep neat... not everything is always your fault. Hat off for the work youre doing Remi, to help people stop beating themselves up and find routines that work for them. You're a star!
Hi Remi! Just a tip from a mom about toys.have a place where you have room to store groups of toys. Rotate them with other toys. Clean up easy and learning enhanced. Thank you for your video
In a social media world of picture perfect immaculate houses it’s so wonderful to see a very normal family home. Thank you!!!! Happy new year to you and your family x
Love listening to you. So much common sense. Love your 'no judgement' attitude. P.S. keep talking, I ❤love your chatting through it.
Can I just say, If you ever did a podcast I would be a loyal listener 😌 I love listening to you discuss sifferent topics and I've learned a lot about self compassion from your videos.
Your videos are a breath of fresh air 🍃🌻
Remi, your videos continue to amaze me! The explanations for certain behaviors, your insight and empathy is encouraging and calming in a troublesome world. I think this is probably my favorite video so far. May you and your family have a blessed new year! ❤
Remi, I completely understand "Mom-guilt"! But I sure appreciate how you try to integrate spending time with them into your routine! Watching your baby "cook" with you just meted my heart!
The motivation in this video is huuuuge. My home often looks like this and worse and I feel utterly paralysed often to get started or to keep going and this was exactly what I needed!! Happy New Year to the most relatable and authentic UA-camr out there! Another wonderful and compassionate video thank you Remi xx
I love watching you clean as well as hearing our narration. I think one thing that makes a huge difference is having a partner that is supportive and trusting that things will get done when they get done.
I one hundred percent agree with you!!
When I see you’ve posted a new video, I use it as a reward for getting some chores done. Love both your cleaning tips and voiceovers. Happy New Year! Looking forward to declutter January! ❤️
I just discovered your channel and love it so much. Cleaning videos always calm me down, but I often play them in the background, so I love it when there's a voiceover. So whoever tells you to stop talking or shut up, please don't, because there will always be someone who enjoys it. I love listening to stories and am so happy I found you. Keep doing what you're doing!!!
I really needed to see this video today! My parents have been giving me a hard time due to the *state of my house* baring in mind im 13 weeks pregnant, moved 2 weeks before christmas and then obviously had christmas, all this and being poorly with preg symptoms the house has got on top of me!! Yesterday i gutted the lounge and kitchen and made me feel so much better but getting there takes time! My mum just doesnt get it 😢 she just thinks im being lazy! Everything you said is so so right! My 4 year old alsn has adhd and every day seems hard but i wont give up and i will keep watching your videos for inspo! ❤
Thank you to the youtube algorithm for bringing me this video. I am you and you are me! I suffer with executive dysfunction, mum guilt and a messy house. Your video is so motivating and inspiring. I just want to love my home and I can't function with the mess. It's so true that for us, a normal cleaning routine doesn't work.
Been going through some bad stuff & just listening to you is so soothing so positive & I'd like to thank you for that ❤ little Ike in his Halloween pj's such a squishy 💙 & mushroom at the end playing with her stuffie 🐾🐾 such a wholesome family. My best wishes for you & your family in 2024 xxx
I love you Remi! Your no nonsense way of dealing with what life sends your way is so inspirational! Thank you
Happy new year everyone , hope you get as much strength out of these videos as I do.
Can't explain it any better, but thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Remi I love watching you clean you have such a healthy look on life.
The house looked great after cleaning up.
Happy Holiday enjoy your happy home. Luv hearing you talk.
Keep up all the great videos.
Nearly 40 minutes?! 🤩❤️ what a fantastic way to start the new year!! Thank you, Remi!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m a new subscriber so I’m watching older videos and I didn’t click on this one expecting to have a cry but here I am crying. I hope you know how helpful you are and how caring you sound. It’s just like I’m catching up with an old friend when I’m watching your videos.
Hello Remy, I think you're doing a wonderful job with handling your home chores with what works best for you and your family! ❤
You did an awesome job! I love listening to your accent. And that star machine is awesome too!😊🇺🇸💕
You videos have really helped me figure out how to stay on top of things at my own house. I don’t have kids but I do have a dog who likes to take every toy from his bin out each day lol but I found what works for me is cleaning in bursts. I set a reminder in my phone to clean for 30 minutes every day and I vary which spots I choose based on necessity so it’s often the kitchen or bathroom but it might also me just doing a task like switching out the bedsheets or doing a load of laundry and for me that really works. Our house is still cluttered in a lot of areas but it’s livable and cozy and some days I have more energy and get a lot more done like organizing a cabinet but having the routine of cleaning every day even just a little makes it less overwhelming
Oh that bath looks so relaxing with your star lights . Enjoy you deserve it ❤
Dear Remi, I can relate to your story. I am looking after my grandchild whose single parent is an artist who has got another day job. ADHD is also in the picture. Life is never boring!
I think your approach to celebrate your home and daily life through your art is brilliant. Rhythm and flow, both of the visuals and text, are beautiful. It makes me think that taking care of our dwellings is such a significant part of culture. Your videos also show the repetitiveness of tasks, and I came to think how repetition is a central characteristic of housework. Repeating familiar tasks also frees the mind to think about things or to share thoughts with others. Like you do sharing your wisdom with us.
Thank you so much for your beautiful work! Wish you all the best for the New Year!
Great job! Nothing feels better than going to bed with a clean house.
Thank you, friend. I listened as I put Christmas away. Got me motivated because my adhd brain kept me a bit paralyzed and couldn't get myself going. I am grateful for you 💛
It's a deep clean! I do what you do weekly. Have your magnesium level checked. It made a big difference to me. You are also a great free head doctor. Your methods, tricks of getting the damn job done, your organization and identity what type of cleaning products to use on what. It's your dialogue that makes you real. I for one love listening to how you explain real life and limits of what you can do and not do. Lastly, don't read what negative folks feel the need to tell you. This is why we have a delete button. Don't give them free rent in your head! You are amazing just the why you are!!
House care. Solid child care. Self care… you did it all well done. Happy new year
You accompanied me on my walk home late at night through my city. Most men i know are too scared to come downtown during the day, let alone walk alone at night. Nothing scares me anymore--nothing. But i don't always have a smile on my face for the people i pass. I did tonight. Thank you, my dear.
Remi..just finished your video and I can’t tell how much I enjoy them. You are an incredible young lady who really has wisdom beyond your years. What a lovely setting to see as you ended the video. You really know how to set the mood. You certainly deserve it❤️
I watch for the cleaning AND speaking! so relaxing and I am always learning something new! It's just me and my hubby and while we don't make much clutter, I find I am always aware of certain things and that they give me anxiety, like unmade bed, couch blanket is unfolded, clothes are strewn where they shouldn't be. My husband has grown accustomed to finding his pajamas folded on a made bed. He is a neat man though! he always cleans up the bathroom when it needs it, I didn't know that not a lot of men do this! I love watching Remi Clogs videos becuase it motivates me to tidy and she continues to validate the love of a clean and tidy space. it really is the best to relax in!
Remi, a suggestion for drying your laundry - if you don’t already have one, you can get an indoor drying rack. There are a few different types. Amazon had some in their days deals a few days ago. The one that had flat pieces on each side would allow for flat drying larger things and other parts to hang other pieces on. If it helps get things done it may be worth it to you. Happy New Year and God bless you and family! ♥️💕🙏😊
We have a clothes horse? I’m not sure if that’s the same thing? 😊 we also had a heated dryer but Ike kept scalding himself on it, so we had to get rid 🤦🏻♀️ I’ll definitely have a look over on Amazon, thank you for the suggestion! And happy new year ❤️
I have a drying rack high on the wall in the bathroom. I made it out of an old childrends bed, but you can buy them, even foldable. I can hang the cloths even directly on the hangers, they dry better, and dont take up any space if i forget them :-) @@remiclog
I love how you are teaching your kids to clean and organize with you! You are a great mama!
You are my favorite person to watch 💖 I love the videos and the chats. You help me to remember that I am enough and my best is great just the way it is😊
I first found your videos a couple of days ago. I, like you, have always stuggled with been an untidy person but I have been listening to your longer deep clean videos while I have been tackling my own house which got into a right state. Thank you I love your vouce overs and it feels like I've got my mate here to have a natter with while I clean. Just while I was listening to this video, I managed to clean my living room. I even got the cleaning kit out and cleaned all the pen marks and stuck on biscuit crumbs off the settee. First thing I did was put the fairy lights on and lit the candels so it would look cosy and smell nice while I was cleaning. Thank you for being my new cleaning buddy. I will see you in another video while I tackle the kitchen and dining area. I'm not giving up now girl you've got me motivated and im so glad I'm not the only one who goes from cleaning a cupboard to finding an old birthday card to then going through old photo albums. I always assumed something was wrong with me because I couldn't stick to anything . Thank you for telling and showing me I'm not alone, im not a bad mother for leaving things to get messy, and im not a bad person for not getting everything done in 20 mins and keeping my house sparkling all day everyday ❤
Thank you for your videos. You have been so motivational for me. I struggle with a lot of overwhelm with cleaning and not feeling well because of anxiety. I keep rewatching your videos and I am finally starting to make progress. Thank you so much
I don't know why I teared up when you put the star machine on but you deserved that calming bath so much. I struggle with many of the same issues and you are right that the fleeting moments of having a calm and tidy space make the mammoth cleans worth it. Great video, thanks.
Thank you! I'm so happy to have discovered your channel this past year. When I finally get the motivation to start cleaning, I binge your cleaning videos because they are a source of calm for me, like a friend encouraging me to keep going with kind and insightful words. I just can't thank you enough! Have a wonderful New Year celebration, and I am looking forward to your videos in 2024. 🤗
I love how you were cooking with your youngest, little ones are almost always part of it and it's amazing how well they do when included, they usually exceed our expectations!
Happy new year to you and your beautiful family - Thankyou for the incredible vlogs over the last year and pointing out “none of us are perfect” - life is for living❤
Rémi,
I love your videos. I am about to retire and just now realizing I have ADHD. I am so encouraged by your honesty, openness and vulnerability. You inspire me. You are freakin AMAZING ! Keep up the good work. Lyne
What a nice way to end off the year. Thanks Remi❤
You’re so welcome! I hope you enjoy! ❤️
Oh my goodness Remi, I've just really discovered you. At 61 I now understand why I struggled. You are superb. Thankyou so much lovely x
Remi - Wonderful video on so many levels. It's just what I needed today. I wish you and your family a lovely New Year's and here's to 2024! 🎉Love and hugs and smiles from Michigan, U.S.A. Blessings - Judith 🎭🎤
I LOVE your videos! I love how you show real life cleaning for a real family. Not a house that looks like an Instagram post, with everything matching and shiny, but a real home with REAL expectations. It’s WONDERFUL! It makes me feel better about my situation. (I’m someone who prefers a tidy house, but can’t always get it done because of a chronic illness.) Your videos are so encouraging! Much love from the U.S.! ❤
I enjoyed this longer video very much and was just amazed at everything you got accomplished 🙌 👏 Good job. ♥️ I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas. I am watching this on New Year's Eve here in the US and you've inspired me to get some things done this evening so I can start the New Year off without a lot of work to do 😊 Happy New Year, Remi. 🎉❤
I think the snowflakes and decorations on the window are marvelously done !!!
Ive played this video over and over and o er. It’s comforting, reassuring, informative…just RICH with encouragement and motivation!
❤❤❤
This video inspired me to pause twice and take the load of laundry out of the dryer, fold them, and put them away. The second time I clean up my bathroom counter and put some new things in the shower. It wasn't a lot but it made a huge difference. I finished the video just listening and watching :)
I declare you and I are twins!!! The sitting down, going straight to Bridgeton is so me. But I appreciate everything you said through this video.
Remi, have you heard of the Minimal Mom videos on youtube? I think you might find them useful. You have a toddler, so for the next three years or so, your house will be a bit messy. Some other mommies have moved all toys to a play area in the house, or the child's bedroom, instead of the living room. One Mommy put up a little fenced-in area in a room with toys inside and no toys alllowed outside of the fence! Because, as you know, toys migrate to be near Mommy! But don't berate yourself over this because your babies are happy, loved, warm, fed, clean, cared for and that's what's really important. When they are older and all your systems are in place, things will be easier. Wonderful video. You are so understanding and encouraging. Listening to you, I feel so much better about my own situation and I'll bet many other women feel the same way. Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing. Have you thought about decluttering clothing and toys and everything else? It might help and make life easier for you.
I just want to let you know listening to you talk about self improvement and how to function keeping house while not damaging your kids is helping me heal my inner child in a small way. Your content, character, and simply your voice are a great comfort and I’m sure I’m not the only person who feels that way. ❤
I appreciate your kind message to those struggling to keep a “perfect” home. Thank you.
Your rambling is definitely what makes your videos feel like you’re just hanging with a mate and encouraging each other :) you deserve all the lovely bubble baths
Do u just love these videos How helpful and very interesting and motivated, and I can't thank you enough for how they have helped me since u moved to these channel u tube again, sending much love and appreciation ❤️
