I LOVE LIVING on my NARROWBOAT in WINTER - inspired by nature - vlog episode 62
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Living on a narrowboat in the cold of winter its not all that bad, especially if you can find the space to tune into mother nature. Observing, connecting and focusing on her magnificence, the colourful rising sun, the elements, the flora and wildlife warms you inside. The pure white snow, a winter wonderland, and a frozen canal etched with amazing patterns all bring such delight. Join me on my winter journey on the Upper Peak forest canal.
The Journey started here... I once lived in the fast lane of life, happily married of 26 years, with two children. That chapter was suddenly shattered by the sudden loss of my wife to cancer, which led me in to depression and homelessness. Waking up in hospital, after attempting to take my own life, with just a suitcase, kayak and bicycle and no money, I've managed to rise up out of the darkness and find happiness and continue my next chapter.
I'm a self taught film maker, and creating these vlogs, it gives me something to do, share my personal experiences as I continue my journey cruising and living life on the canal. Please do consider supporting my channel below... Thank you Dave

A priceless vlog, thank you for taking the time within your space to create this, by watching this I have forgotton time if only for 30 mins, my busy mind has cleared if only for a short while...... our purpose in life is always changing, sometimes we dont know what that is until we are in the moment. A sense of achievement however little in our daily life keeps me focused on the bigger picture, wishing you a safe, warm, christmas. Xx
Thank you Lynette for your very kind words 🙏 have a lovely Christmas and peaceful 2022 🙏
Thank you, Lynette, for putting my own thoughts so eloquently. This is just so important for all of us to share and be grateful for.
This is simply one of the best videos you have done to date, Dave. The scenery, the photography is stunning. It took my breath away. In combination with yours and Paolo's music, it was beautiful...I missed your comment on where exactly this is. Which canal? Is this the Peak Forest? What an amazing gift you have given. Thank you.....
Upper Peak Forest 🙏 thankyou for you're kind words 🙏
Thanks for kind words Louise. Dave is a very skilled editor and somehow makes my music fit into the cracks so well.
Dave...Your purpose ( your Darma ) is to do exactly what you have been doing...to bring peace, calm and the joy of nature to all the people who seek it from your videos, to enlighten people who especially now need the guidance that you bring...you are essential Dave...keep doing what you do, and your Darma will be completed.

🙏
Beautiful, calm, peaceful, reassuring and simply soul caressing. Thank you for this wonderful vlog bringing calm to a crazy world ❤
Just beautiful ❤️ the calmness I need. Thank you for producing these. You have no idea how much grounding it brings x that sunrise, what a beautiful planet we have
Thankyou Jenn for you're kind words and for tuning in 🙏
Your videos are a gift. Thank You.
And thankyou for tuning in to see the video. Thankyou 🙏
When you said "when there's no space between the notes" you also described the anxiety I feel when I'm full of worry and more inside my head than when I'm appreciating the all the beauty that is all around me.
🙏 🙏 ♥
It is so beautiful and tranquil there. I really enjoy watching your videos. And you made a lovely container garden
So pretty. I am from South Africa. An area called the Garden Route.

Thank you for the vlogs Dave, I have only just discovered them. I`ve only been on a narrowboat three times, once was my uncle Peters in Bollington, my home town, and twice on a hired boat from the wharf in Bollington. Each time was magical, so relaxing. You are very lucky, thank you for sharing your experiences and the tranquility of your life as it is now. I`ll wave next time you are in Bolly
🙏
Loved the spiritual quality of calm.
You mention your Musicmaker does he have an Meditation platform? Is this Handpan music +? These journies
would be so right to have on while struggling with painting brockage.
Beautiful vlog Dave. So relaxing and full of wise words. With the world the way it is at the moment this is a great detox. The filming and accompanying music was outstanding as always, truly wonderful. Thanks so much and Merry Xmas Dave
Thankyou Paul for watching and your comment of kindness 🙏
Thank you Dave. You do help, you help to make every day better. You bring calmness and wisdom into a turbulent world.❤️
Good morning, and thank you for your kind words 🙏 Dave

Fascinating how black and white winter is

I am loving your videos. Thank you so much they are breathtakingly stunning. I have recently retired after 48 years at work and now I have found peace and solace in this happy place. Far from the meaningless cacophony of a mad world.x I am so grateful you share your videos and thoughts with us x
You said this is a special episode, to me everyone of your episodes is special. Lots of people are saying such lovely and kind things about you. I feel the same. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank you so much Dave
Thanks for watching. Special for me really, as in I launched the episode on what would have been our 37th wedding anniversary 🙏
Amazing capture of these beautiful moments music and Dave talk I am always following with a smile on my face Thanks

Beautiful scenery of the snow. I love the fresh clean look of it just covering the land. Thank you for this peaceful vlog. I’ll try and Romberg to clear my head space more often…..cheers.
🙏
Absolutely beautiful. You are thousands of miles from me yet this brings us closer, if we choose to open our eyes to it. We all seek the same.
🙏 thanks for watching
it is natural that I wonder about you and your life. We are all individuals and live and die alone and that is how you present yourself but there is more to the story I am sure.

Thank you, Merry Christmas 😊
🙏
Absolutely the best yet, a total joy to watch I have shared it with my lovely friends thank you 🌼🌱 I find space on mountains and odd places like the other day in the fog at a place that is normally teaming with people as it’s a very beautiful spot on the edge of the Cotswold hills, all the people had gone and I felt all the tension disappear… quite unexpected 😊 I guess the key is to try and find that space a little more often 🙏🏼❄️🌼🧘♀️ I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, here’s looking forward to 2022.
Aww bless you Lorna 🙏 Thank you for watching and sharing 🙏 ♥
Excellent music.

"I spent 13 years in the university learning how to think and now I'm spending the rest of my life learning how not to think." (From a video here on yt "The art of life" from Science and Nonduality)
🙏 thanks for tuning in 😃
Merry Christmas 🎄
🙏 Festive greetings 🙏
Peak forest mate?........
Yes indeed 🙏 thanks for watching Adrian 🙏
@@inspiredbynature3 great vids......I was at the dry dock in Furness vale in October but stayed on the peak forest for a while before heading back to bosley.....the upper peak forest is one of the best canals for early morning views and evening sunsets......
Debussy’s quote that the music is between the notes reminds me of meditation where the work, the peace is found between the breathes. The similarity of these quotes strikes me as so true.
😃 Yes! The space between is where we connect and find that place of pure stillness 🙏
A wonderful portrait of the beauty and splendor of the British countryside it brings back some cherished memories as an ex pat now living in the U.S. thank you for sharing your lifestyle in was a pleasure to watch
Same feelings watching from Australia
Beautifully put together. Thankyou..
Thank you NB will 🙏
Beautiful.
Absolutely loved this episode.Your words of wisdom and knowledge have helped me greatly.God bless you🙏🏻
Many thanks once again Dave for your calming words and the serene beauty you capture in every frame of your vlogs. Your "Dave talks" always seem to hit the nail on the head each time 😊. You have an incredible heart and a calm soul which you share openly with everyone around you, a wonderful and much appreciated gift. Have a wonderful Christmas and a never ending, amazing journey in 2022. Thank you 🙏
Thankyou Sandy for the kind words. Dave talks... I find I'm nervous and it difficult to talk in front of a person off camera about personal things. I feel more comfortable talking to camera and it's then heard and seen by thousands. I feel that sharing my experiences will resonate with others and in some way help them overcome situations that Ive been through. I know it is and that really is driving me to keep the vlogs going. There is one request I ask... Please do share my channel with others so I can reach out to thousands more beautiful souls and bring some light to thier life's 🙏 ♥ Dave
Superb❤
Wow Dave what a beautiful video of amazing scenery especially with the snow. The life you lead now for physical, mental and emotionally well being would take some beating and think it would do all of us some good. For different reasons its not to be at the moment but massive fair play and good for you that you really are 'living the dream' and so inspiring for us all. Keep enjoying the space between those notes. Christmas day on the canal - perfect - enjoy 🌲🎅 and Happy Christmas everyone 🥰 x
Thank you for your kind words Leigh. Have a beautiful Christmas 🙏
A bit of Inspiration and positiv energy ... arrives North Germany. But mud? I don‘t like it. Even After years.
Much awaited, beautiful cinematography, wise words and thought provoking, thank you Dave. Merry Christmas
Lovely cruise. Breathtaking scenery. Thank you for sharing. I will try to keep on shinning. 😊

🙏
Daveyboy price...I'm a lone wolfess but I don't live in a van but I watch vlogs of people who do so good for you. I want to live on a n/b with all my heart but I'm scared to actually go for it, alot of stuff to consider, it's driving me bonkers. Happy New year mate, all the best for 2022

Really lovely video, beautiful scenery, love the snow on the ground and the frost.

Many thanks! 🙏 Dave
Beautiful video Dave ,the isness as always looks cosy and inviting , wishing you a happy and peaceful Christmas , looking forward to the next vlog
Thank you Mark 🙏 Have a beautiful Christmas 🙏
How deep are these canal? PS . awesome vidoes
They all vary from canal to canal. The Narrowboat canals can be very Shallow at edges, that you can't moor up. Middle of canals can be just few feet deep, this is down to silt build up over the years, but generally anything between 4ft to 8ft deep. Some bigger, wider canals can be very deep built originally for large barges to transport goods. Like I say, they all vary in depth.
Very poetic - cant find the words.
🙏 Thank you
stunning!
Wonderful 🙏🏻
🙏
Once again ,beautiful.Thank you,merry christmas.
Great video sport...thanks for sharing
