Im going thru change as well. I could only imagine what youve been going thru. Somehow i found your channel randomly. Life is bitterweet and temporary. Sometimes unpredictable too. Everything shall pass and everything needs time. There will be days that it seems impossible to move on and there will be lighter and sunny days to come. (reminder for myself to carry on and be strong ) thank you for sharing and for keeping us inspired. Your new follower. tc.
@@mintandmushroom what a beautiful comment ✨💞✨ it felt like a warm hug… thank you so much for this important reminder… I really needed to hear / read this 🥹 and also thank you so much for being here 🙏 I’m feeling blessed to have such a kindhearted new subscriber 🌱 please take good care of yourself as well ❤️ love, Nastja
What a sweetheart-gift again-Thank you. I was ( almost ) my whole life single ( and I am still ) without wanting so-i went through a lot of pain and sadness and doubts because of that. Now I feel balanced about it even though I still wish to meet a fitting person who wants to spend life with me in a fulfilled love-relationship. Its crazy to see, that others feel in similar ways too because of a break-up. Power and love to you!!
it's really weird.. because I've been in relationships for most of my adult life.. :) and now I feel like it's time to love to myself .. you know what I mean? I admire you ❤️ right now I really find myself struggling with the thought of ever being able to fall in love again.. and to build a life with another person. sometimes it really scares me.. but you know what? your comment felt like a warm hug, reassuring me that I'm not alone in this.. and for that I am so grateful 💓🤗
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Oh, Wonderfull! And so true. Its better being alone from time to time and search connection in new ways than being in tense, unhappy, blocked relations. I m very reliefed that I could let go of the obsession to fullfill the norm having a partner! Now I feel more free for a properly fitting connection and anyways does not matter how it goes: self love is a stable also alone
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Maybe you already know them: one is Vivian Dittmar " Gefühle und Emotionen-eine Gebrauchsanweisung". The other one is Maria Sanchez " Die revolutionäre Kraft des Fühlens". I m quiet sure they exist in multiple languages! I just read a few sentences via intuition and it supports my process already so well. But its also possible to read those in a more systematic way. :)
@ no I didn’t know about them! Just read the descriptions of each book and it made me very curious.. it reminded me a little bit of Verena König. Her focus is on trauma though.. e-motion is energy in motion. It will always find its way… thank you for recommending me these books 📚 I will check them out 😊🤓🤗
You inspire me so much ❤️ And it's beautiful to see you reclaim your home as a safe space with new energy, despite being sick and at the moment having limited resources for that change. You do more than enough, you are more than enough. Sick here as well while trying to grieve a loss, and these little daily steps make all the difference - steady and gentle, as you said 🙏🏼
Julie, I‘m so sorry about your loss… and I‘m sending you so much love and strength 🙏 I think in overwhelming times like these our bodies just tend to get sick… but I’m so happy to hear that you are taking it gently and slowly. That is so important! A good reminder for me as well… 🙈 And I’m so happy that this video could inspire you, Julie 🙌🥰🙌 so happy 🫶 and you know what? I didn’t put the Christmas decoration away that day. It’s still there hehe :) so I didn’t do everything on my to do list. Think I will do it together with my son. Thank you so much for being here, for bringing me light and joy through your words 🕊️✨ again: I’m sending you so much strength in this difficult time of your life 🙏 please take good care of yourself ❤️ sending you a big, tight hug 🫂💞🌈
@EmbraceYourselfBaby It means so much to read this from you my dear! Thank you for your empathic words, we got this and it's so good to know we're not alone in this. On low days (emotionally or physically), it really helps me to focus on the most important things I want to do that day, and then to do them slowly and with deep breaths, while putting on a comfort podcast or a nice scent in the room ❤️ while letting the emotions simply exist. I love that you will put away the Christmas decorations together with your son! I'm sure he will love to be involved in this change of seasons, and let's normalize leaving things unchecked on our to-do-lists! 😛 Thank you again for always sharing your life in such a real and heartfelt way ❤️
@ I‘m doing exactly the same thing on low days Julie 😅 putting on some Palo Santo or incense works wonders from me… trying just to be present with the present … You are such a sweetheart… 💞 I am so happy for our connection here.. even if it is through a digital interface, I can still feel so much warmth ☀️ hope you’re having a good start into the week 🌈 sending you lots of love and gratitude through the tube 🦄🫶🕊️
Loved hanging out with you in this video! ❤ excited for you to fill your space with new life and pour a bit of your soul and a lot of your creativity in it. This space will help you to transform into the person that you aspire to be. Our bodies, our realities, and our environments need a bit more time to transform than our minds do.
Thank you so much Stancy 🥹💞 I feel like my mind is really slow at catching with everything… there’s just no room to breath.. that’s how it feels sometimes. Like a marathon. But I‘m going to take your advice.. and also take it slowly.. one day at a time 🌱 a big hug to you 🫂🫶
Sorry to hear about your breakup - so difficult, I know. Please don't make any big decisions (like moving house) at this time in your life: your mind is in turmoil and whatever decision you make will (often) turn out to be the wrong one, so please do take your time thinking things through and grieving the loss of your relationship. I can recommend the sage green/pink/cream palette - it's very calming - and once you redecorate your home to reflect this new chapter in your life, things will look up I promise. Good wishes.
@@EdelweisSusie thank you Susie… ❤️I definitely will take your advice. My separation isn’t the only difficult / existential situation, so I know that I really have to take it slow... it’s just all too much right now. But reclaiming my space is really empowering for me 🍀 thank you for being here 💞
I feel your pain. It can take a long time to go through the real grief of separating from a partner. Give yourself time and grace, and look for the small moments of joy. (Part of your being ill is probably because of stress and grief which can compromise your immune system.). Eventually, you will move through this. Absolutely, change your environment into your OWN space as much as you can.
Thank you so much Carrie for your compassionate words… ❤️ there’s definitely too much unprocessed stress that I had to hold back for years now (the separations actually only a part of it)… at times I feel like I’m in functional freeze.. I‘m getting sick a lot right now.. also getting migraines more often again. It’s all a sign to take good care of myself… tomorrow I will visit my doctor and talk about it… so thank you so much for your encouragement 🫶 it sounds as if you‘ve been through hardship yourself… I truly appreciate you taking the time to write me… 🫂Love 💞 Nastja
New subscriber ❤ thank you for this… Have a wonderful day! I once had a husband and between the life I had with him and the life I have now - I choose the now and my future. I lived in a lot of pain and darkness but now I live in peace and in light! ❤
Thank you so much Jen… this really touches me and it gives me so much hope for myself 🌱💞 knowing that the darkness will hopefully pass someday… thank you for your words of encouragement 🥹🫂 you are very strong 🌺
Such a beautiful and cozy video✨I love how you’re turning your space into a reflection of joy and new beginnings🙌🏽also I laughed so much at the pigeon couple part😂 Sending you lots of love and hoping you feel better soon! Love you🤍🥰
Oh my gif sweetie 😮😂 now I‘m thinking of those regal white pigeons you always use as emoticons 🕊️ mine are grey and very saucy though 😆 I love them … but they are really pushing my buttons 😬☺️ but I‘m so glad you liked to video 🥰 love you so much 💞
I understand what you are going through. I had a 22 year reltationship break up. As women,, remaking our homes with our special essence helps. What helped me a lot was reading my bible, praying, painting and talking long nature walks with my dog. You will get through this. God bless you!
I’m so sorry you have to go through this… 22 years is such a long time… that is really tough and I am so glad that your are taking such good care of yourself ❤️ having our own faith and finding ways to express ourselves creatively is so important and powerful 🙏 sending you lots of love and strength right back 🍀🌈🫶 and yes: we will get through this ❤️!!! 🫂
if I would be one of the Fab 5, I would say: you got this Beau 🤠 but seriously... so glad this could inspire you even a little bit 😊 you got this Beau 💪 💗
Decorative screens would look great as a separation between your bed and living room, and you could coordinate your bedding with colors in the living space so when you want to fold the screens back and open up the space it all flows well
@@teribennett7687 thank you for this inspiration Teri :) my main problem (reason for the separation) is the noise from outside.. I’m not quite sure what zu will do about it yet… I just hope that when everything feels more cozy and homely I will be less affected by the noise 🍀🙏 and the screens are a beautiful idea 💞
Your willingness to confide is causing thousands of us around this world to reverberate in sympathetic resonance with you. Many of us would feel privileged to assist with rearranging the furniture and cleaning up after the pigeons if it meant we could be there in person to share the smiles, the tears and the warm tea.
@@humbleviewpoint those pigeons are really something Dave 😅 sometimes I feel they just want to keep me company.. probably there is some hidden meaning behind them 🙃 and you know what? for me there not thousands of you… :) there’s only one *you* Dave 😊 and besides: numbers in UA-cam are mostly smoke and mirrors anyway… 😉
Thank you very much for the beautiful, elegiac video. The sad winter landscape is waiting to reawaken to new life. Just as we wait to leave the sad days in our lives behind us. And the bright, happy days will soon come back.🍀 ❤
There must be a reason your video showed up in my recommended list … your words touched my heart and soul, I had tears in my eyes for many reasons. Your apartment is beautiful and you will create a happier home 🤍 your style is very much like mine. Take care and thank you sincerely for sharing the path you are on. Kindly, Ann x
Oh Ann… 💞🥹 thank you from the bottom of my heart… your comment really made my day… 🌈☀️🌱🌷 I‘m so happy you found my video and that it connected to you … knowing that really means a lot to me.. so thank soy for telling me 🙏 wishing you a beautiful day today 🍀 the sun finally started shining here 🕊️✨🤍 I hope it does the same for you ☀️
That’s so true about making more changes for our children. I would love to offer a different perspective if I may. Our children grow up inside our subconscious thoughts and emotions. Once we grew up, we forget that we also grew up in our parent’s subconscious and we think that are perspective is our own but in fact it is mostly what our parents felt and thought about us and how they receive the world around them. Our children are fine if the outside changes if on the inside the parent is aware and empowered. I am 53 now and this is something I wish I had more insight about when I was younger. I would have been able to face change with awareness that it was I that gave it its meaning. All my love and I wish you great health and wealth. 💞
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and perspective Kathleen ❤️ it gave me a lot to think about… I guess right now I’m in such an overwhelming phase of my life where I really need to take good care of myself and take it slow. I love how you explained how much our subconscious, shaped by our own parents, impacts the way we see the world and raise our kids. I couldn’t agree more… It’s such an important reminder to be aware of what we’re carrying and passing on. I think teaching them self love and kindness towards themselves is one of the most valuable things . there’s just so much change going on at once right now. And that’s something my child is experiencing as well, the sickness of his grandparents and aunt.. my fear for them.. and all the responsibility.. I just feel there needs to be some stability for us right now.. somehow. And another big change, like moving, will come when the time is ripe and when I feel strong enough to contain everything 🤲 Again: I really appreciate you taking the time to share your insights Kathleen 🙏Wishing you lots of love, health, and happiness 💕🌷✨
Wow, it's very soothing and amazing video for me...feeling so cozy and homely...and the little bit mess you courage to show makes me feel more comfortable ...beautiful weekend with beautiful video...don't worry about how much you thought (about changing your place) and how much you can actually execute...sending you energy of healing...much ❤️❤❤.. The landscapes you shown are extremely beautiful. Your balcony is so cozy, birds love to spend their time.😊
Haha 🕊️😅 this made me smile so much 🥰 I guess the birds have good taste 😄 and I am so happy it made you feel comfortable.. I think there is enough Videos about perfect and minimalist places.. it’s also good to show some mess. Because life can be hard and messy. And we won’t always be able to keep everything in order all the time. As always I am so happy to see you here 💞 hoping you are well 🍀 and sending you a big warm hug ✨🫂 ✨
I am going through the same thing -- after a ten year marriage -- with two kids. At the moment, I'm in the same home. I can understand your feeling, and I will pray for you as my sister in time.
Thank you so much for sharing this with me Noel ❤️ it truly makes me feel less alone. I hope you have all the support you need to navigate through this difficult time. It’s definitely one of the most difficult things I‘ve been through in my life. It feels like losing ground. So that’s why it’s even more important that we reclaim our space.. and fill it with as much joy, love and inspiration as we can. Because we deserve to be happy and fulfilled 🌈 sending a big hug and so much love to you and your children 🍀🫂💞 Nastja
Morning Nastja, First of all congratulations on what looks like your half century of uploads. lol. A lovely soothing video to wake up to on a Sunday. So much of what you say I can relate to. One of the first things I did when I was in this situation was to go out and buy wall paint. It was my way of taking ownership and making a point of the fact that I was in control of my own destiny now. Small but significant. I think it's great that you are now putting your own stamp on what is clearly a lovely apartment. You just have to make it YOURS now. Fill your space with art, plants, laughter & new memories & moments. It will take time, so still make time to sit with your feelings, as you know it's only when we do this we can truly start to heal. I'm sending love and positive energy to you all at this very tough time. You have so much to deal with at the moment. You will obviously have painful times ahead, none of us can really avoid that, can we. But one day the cloud will clear and you will wake up to blue skies and find everything that has happened has helped shape a beautiful human into one that is even more knowledgable and wonderful than you already are... Cheese alert! 🤣☺ Anyway, I think here a lot of people who have balconies put a plastic Owl on the railings. I think it's meant to deter copulating Pidgeons 🐦🤣😆 🫂
That’s no cheese alert at all Jason 🥹🥰 it touches my heart and is just what I need to hear.. and apart from that: I love cheese 🧀😅 thank you so much for the continuous warmth and support you are sending me with your deep and uplifting words 🙏🫂 and also for the practical tips to deal with my pigeons 🕊️😄 greatly appreciated 🫶 What does your first sentence mean? I didn’t upload that many videos yet lol 😁
Things are okay. A break up will let other things into your life…. I’m old enough to remember and know. I was married 25 years & three children later. It takes a while to regrow, regroup…REALLY… it takes a while. You will come out OKAY. TRUST ME PLEASE! It’s going to all be okay.
Poetry and confidence, that's how I feel when I watch this video. Thank You for these nice moments of Your daily life you are scharing with us in this video.🌹
@@jacquiheywood3142 I was thinking about it to Jacqui :) … I think I will try some things out… But it definitely won’t be close to the window, because of the noise 🙉☺️
My sister has crows on her balcony and they keep the pidgins away and are very sweet, tidy birds. She feeds them peanuts... But there are no crows around my balcony just some magpies (and they are not interested in the real estate) and so I have a couple of pidgins that sh*t on my balcony too. I also kinda grew attached to them but I guess I'm gonna buy a fake falcon or raven figure to scare them away. Love your retaking of the space!
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Haha! Wanderfalke (peregrine falcon) is my favorite bird of all time ;) Still kinda like my unwanted squatters... Halt die Ohren steif! 🤗
Deine Wohnung spiegelt die Wärme und Herzlichkeit aver auch die Kreativität wieder❤ es braucht Zeit, bis man heilt und bis man sich wieder in seinem Zuhause wohl fühlt, gerade nach einer Trennung. Ich zog mit einem Expartner mal um, dann eröffnete er mir, dass er nicht da bleibt sondern sich von mir trennt. Hat ein 3/4 Jahr gedauert , bis ich es in der neuen Wohnung ausgehalten habe und beschlossen habe, es mir dort schön zu machen. Ich wünsche dir erstmal gute Besserung und viel Kraft dafür. Es wird alles gut werden.
Danke liebe Maja ❤️ du glaubst gar nicht wie gut deine Worte mir tun… and der Stelle fühle ich mich manchmal noch wie ein kleines Kind. Manchmal brauche ich einfach diesen Satz „es wird alles gut werden“. Gerade gehe ich wirklich durch eine düstere Phase, weil so vieles (noch abgesehen von der Trennung) zusammen kommt. Und es ist erstaunlich wie gut es mir tut mich um meinen „Raum“ zu kümmern. Ich bin froh, dass du die schwere Zeit von damals überstanden hast und es dir gelungen ist, Schritt für Schritt nach vorne zu gehen und es dir wieder schön zu machen ❤️ wie immer: ich bin sehr froh dich hier zu haben 🍀 eine ganz liebe Umarmung an dich 🫂✨🕊️💞
@EmbraceYourselfBaby das wird es auch. Glaube mir, diese Phasen durchstehst du. Dunkelheit befördert sehr oft ganz viel Licht an die Oberfläche. Auch in Krankheit, Verlust, Trauer und Umbruch liegt ganz viel Schönheit. Wenn man nur überlegt, wie man in schweren Zeiten zusammen rückt oder Unterstützung von einer Seite kommt mit der man nicht gerechnet hat. Jetzt denkst und fühlst du bestimmt oft " Oh Gott, ich pack das nicht mehr, ich kann nicht mehr. Wann hört das endlich auf?" In einem Jahr blickst du auf all das zurück und wirst erstaunt feststellen, wie sehr du gewachsen bist, wie sehr du aufgestiegen bist. Und dass alles erst dann erträglicher erscheint, wenn man sich der Situation wie sie ist hingibt und nicht in den Widerstand geht. Du wirst deiner Wohnung und deinem Innersten einen neuen Anstrich verpassen, umstellen, umfunktionieren und auf die neue Situation zuschneiden. Und dann wirst du euer Leben mit neuen Erfahrungen und Erinnerungen füllen. Und dann stellst du fest: es ist endlich gut ❤️
How are you dealing with your son going off to school? Im in a similar situation. I have a 14 year old who is ready to fly the neat already. Shes very headatrong and determined to get good grades to get into college and in the meantime i barely see her because shes so involved in school. Its a strange time of life. Single, living alone mostly and unsure of the future. I havent commented in awhile. I will visit your latest videos soon.
@AR-mu4zq hey Andrea ❤️ a close friend of mine also has a daughter in her teens while going through a separation. That’s challenging in many ways.. I feel having a toddler is so different..I feel like school will be such an enormous change because he is in a forest kindergarten right now.., and honestly.. I can’t imagine it yet 😕 each time he is not with me the apartment feels do empty and I miss him a lot… yeah.. this midlife period is really strange and challenging.. parents getting old and sick.. separations.. children becoming independent… I also feel very unsure if the future, especially when it comes to my parents. So I’m trying to live for the moment as much as I can, I guess… I know we will get through this. It takes patience and faith. But we will… I’m sending you a big hug dear Andrea 🫂💞🌱 thank you for being here ❤️
Reena.. I’m so sorry to hear about your situation.. I’m sending so much love and strength to you and your family ❤️ you are such a sweetheart and I am so happy to have you here… ans I can relate so well to your situation.. I just hope you have all the support you need 🙏 and I’m happy that my channel can help you brighten the day a little bit 🌱 I’m sending you the biggest hug 🫂🍀💞 please take good care of yourself 🙏 love, Nastja
There is my son‘s room and the living room on the lower floor. There is a upper floor with two little rooms but I will have to take a subtenant into the apartment, so I can afford it. The living costs in west German cities are crazy unfortunately…

I would have been able to face change with awareness that it was I that gave it its meaning. All my love and I wish you great health and wealth. 💞
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and perspective Kathleen ❤️ it gave me a lot to think about… I guess right now I’m in such an overwhelming phase of my life where I really need to take good care of myself and take it slow.
I love how you explained how much our subconscious, shaped by our own parents, impacts the way we see the world and raise our kids. I couldn’t agree more… It’s such an important reminder to be aware of what we’re carrying and passing on.
I think teaching them self love and kindness towards themselves is one of the most valuable things .
there’s just so much change going on at once right now. And that’s something my child is experiencing as well, the sickness of his grandparents and aunt.. my fear for them.. and all the responsibility.. I just feel there needs to be some stability for us right now.. somehow. And another big change, like moving, will come when the time is ripe and when I feel strong enough to contain everything 🤲
Again: I really appreciate you taking the time to share your insights Kathleen 🙏Wishing you lots of love, health, and happiness 💕🌷✨
I'm excited for your new chapter and wish I could come help you rearrange your apartment.😊❤
@@rebeccagirson1087 I would really love that Rebecca 😅💞 it’s hard to do it all by myself… :-/
Wow, it's very soothing and amazing video for me...feeling so cozy and homely...and the little bit mess you courage to show makes me feel more comfortable ...beautiful weekend with beautiful video...don't worry about how much you thought (about changing your place) and how much you can actually execute...sending you energy of healing...much ❤️❤❤..
The landscapes you shown are extremely beautiful. Your balcony is so cozy, birds love to spend their time.😊
Haha 🕊️😅 this made me smile so much 🥰 I guess the birds have good taste 😄 and I am so happy it made you feel comfortable.. I think there is enough Videos about perfect and minimalist places.. it’s also good to show some mess. Because life can be hard and messy. And we won’t always be able to keep everything in order all the time. As always I am so happy to see you here 💞 hoping you are well 🍀 and sending you a big warm hug ✨🫂 ✨
@EmbraceYourselfBaby yah realistic home should little messy otherwise it looks like advertisement...I'm fine dear.💜💙🩵💚💛🧡❤️
@ that’s good to know 🤗 please keep it that way 🙏 and thank you for this beautiful heart rainbow 🌈💞
I am going through the same thing -- after a ten year marriage -- with two kids. At the moment, I'm in the same home. I can understand your feeling, and I will pray for you as my sister in time.
Thank you so much for sharing this with me Noel ❤️ it truly makes me feel less alone. I hope you have all the support you need to navigate through this difficult time. It’s definitely one of the most difficult things I‘ve been through in my life. It feels like losing ground. So that’s why it’s even more important that we reclaim our space.. and fill it with as much joy, love and inspiration as we can. Because we deserve to be happy and fulfilled 🌈 sending a big hug and so much love to you and your children 🍀🫂💞 Nastja
I can see you using the items you already own to re design your home. Take your time and enjoy the creative process
@@ruthdennisKnits yes I‘m trying :) thank you Ruth ❤️ it gives me lots of energy indeed 😊 but I really have to take it slow… 🌱
Morning Nastja, First of all congratulations on what looks like your half century of uploads. lol. A lovely soothing video to wake up to on a Sunday. So much of what you say I can relate to. One of the first things I did when I was in this situation was to go out and buy wall paint. It was my way of taking ownership and making a point of the fact that I was in control of my own destiny now. Small but significant. I think it's great that you are now putting your own stamp on what is clearly a lovely apartment. You just have to make it YOURS now. Fill your space with art, plants, laughter & new memories & moments. It will take time, so still make time to sit with your feelings, as you know it's only when we do this we can truly start to heal. I'm sending love and positive energy to you all at this very tough time. You have so much to deal with at the moment. You will obviously have painful times ahead, none of us can really avoid that, can we. But one day the cloud will clear and you will wake up to blue skies and find everything that has happened has helped shape a beautiful human into one that is even more knowledgable and wonderful than you already are... Cheese alert! 🤣☺ Anyway, I think here a lot of people who have balconies put a plastic Owl on the railings. I think it's meant to deter copulating Pidgeons 🐦🤣😆 🫂
That’s no cheese alert at all Jason 🥹🥰 it touches my heart and is just what I need to hear.. and apart from that: I love cheese 🧀😅 thank you so much for the continuous warmth and support you are sending me with your deep and uplifting words 🙏🫂 and also for the practical tips to deal with my pigeons 🕊️😄 greatly appreciated 🫶
What does your first sentence mean? I didn’t upload that many videos yet lol 😁
@ hiya Nastja, on your channel page it’s says y oh ve uploaded 50 videos! 😀🫂 thank you for vm 💚🙏
@ ahh 😅 I‘m a bit slow LOL 🫶
@ 😆🫂
Things are okay. A break up will let other things into your life…. I’m old enough to remember and know. I was married 25 years & three children later. It takes a while to regrow, regroup…REALLY… it takes a while. You will come out OKAY. TRUST ME PLEASE! It’s going to all be okay.
@@Teaally1913 thank you so much Allison ❤️ this gives me faith… I’m glad you got through this difficult period of life 🌱🫶🌷best wishes to you 🌈
Sh1tted or shat 🤣🤣🤣. Just brilliant! Thank you for making me smile. Good luck with your future lovely lady x
Finally someone appreciating my wordcraft 😂🐦 thank you for making me smile, too 😆🕊️
Poetry and confidence, that's how I feel when I watch this video. Thank You for these nice moments of Your daily life you are scharing with us in this video.🌹
you're so sweet and kind... 💞 thank you so much ✨🌺✨
Home is where the heart is ❤️ thank you for this beautiful video 🍀
Maybe you could use a set of open shelves or some screens to make a partition , to create a bed zone in the lounge? Maybe next to the windows?
@@jacquiheywood3142 I was thinking about it to Jacqui :) … I think I will try some things out… But it definitely won’t be close to the window, because of the noise 🙉☺️
You could use book shelves as make shift walls. ❤
I actually had the same thought 😅📚❤️
My sister has crows on her balcony and they keep the pidgins away and are very sweet, tidy birds. She feeds them peanuts... But there are no crows around my balcony just some magpies (and they are not interested in the real estate) and so I have a couple of pidgins that sh*t on my balcony too. I also kinda grew attached to them but I guess I'm gonna buy a fake falcon or raven figure to scare them away. Love your retaking of the space!
Ich hab gerade geguckt und die schlafen da jetzt gerade friedlich auf meinem Schrank 💤 Meine kleine, beiden Tauben...
Oh mein Got wie süß … 😴🥰😅 I got attached to them, too 🐦 but I guess I‘ll have to build a scare crow LOL but a fake falcon is more fancy 😄
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Haha! Wanderfalke (peregrine falcon) is my favorite bird of all time ;) Still kinda like my unwanted squatters... Halt die Ohren steif! 🤗
Deine Wohnung spiegelt die Wärme und Herzlichkeit aver auch die Kreativität wieder❤ es braucht Zeit, bis man heilt und bis man sich wieder in seinem Zuhause wohl fühlt, gerade nach einer Trennung. Ich zog mit einem Expartner mal um, dann eröffnete er mir, dass er nicht da bleibt sondern sich von mir trennt. Hat ein 3/4 Jahr gedauert , bis ich es in der neuen Wohnung ausgehalten habe und beschlossen habe, es mir dort schön zu machen. Ich wünsche dir erstmal gute Besserung und viel Kraft dafür. Es wird alles gut werden.
Danke liebe Maja ❤️ du glaubst gar nicht wie gut deine Worte mir tun… and der Stelle fühle ich mich manchmal noch wie ein kleines Kind. Manchmal brauche ich einfach diesen Satz „es wird alles gut werden“. Gerade gehe ich wirklich durch eine düstere Phase, weil so vieles (noch abgesehen von der Trennung) zusammen kommt. Und es ist erstaunlich wie gut es mir tut mich um meinen „Raum“ zu kümmern.
Ich bin froh, dass du die schwere Zeit von damals überstanden hast und es dir gelungen ist, Schritt für Schritt nach vorne zu gehen und es dir wieder schön zu machen ❤️ wie immer: ich bin sehr froh dich hier zu haben 🍀 eine ganz liebe Umarmung an dich 🫂✨🕊️💞
@EmbraceYourselfBaby das wird es auch. Glaube mir, diese Phasen durchstehst du. Dunkelheit befördert sehr oft ganz viel Licht an die Oberfläche. Auch in Krankheit, Verlust, Trauer und Umbruch liegt ganz viel Schönheit. Wenn man nur überlegt, wie man in schweren Zeiten zusammen rückt oder Unterstützung von einer Seite kommt mit der man nicht gerechnet hat. Jetzt denkst und fühlst du bestimmt oft " Oh Gott, ich pack das nicht mehr, ich kann nicht mehr. Wann hört das endlich auf?" In einem Jahr blickst du auf all das zurück und wirst erstaunt feststellen, wie sehr du gewachsen bist, wie sehr du aufgestiegen bist. Und dass alles erst dann erträglicher erscheint, wenn man sich der Situation wie sie ist hingibt und nicht in den Widerstand geht.
Du wirst deiner Wohnung und deinem Innersten einen neuen Anstrich verpassen, umstellen, umfunktionieren und auf die neue Situation zuschneiden. Und dann wirst du euer Leben mit neuen Erfahrungen und Erinnerungen füllen. Und dann stellst du fest: es ist endlich gut ❤️
🌵🏡🪴🕊️
Oh sweetie thank you again so much!!! 🫶🥹🤗 and there goes the pigeon 🕊️✨🌺😅
How are you dealing with your son going off to school? Im in a similar situation. I have a 14 year old who is ready to fly the neat already. Shes very headatrong and determined to get good grades to get into college and in the meantime i barely see her because shes so involved in school. Its a strange time of life. Single, living alone mostly and unsure of the future. I havent commented in awhile. I will visit your latest videos soon.
@AR-mu4zq hey Andrea ❤️ a close friend of mine also has a daughter in her teens while going through a separation. That’s challenging in many ways.. I feel having a toddler is so different..I feel like school will be such an enormous change because he is in a forest kindergarten right now.., and honestly.. I can’t imagine it yet 😕 each time he is not with me the apartment feels do empty and I miss him a lot… yeah.. this midlife period is really strange and challenging.. parents getting old and sick.. separations.. children becoming independent… I also feel very unsure if the future, especially when it comes to my parents. So I’m trying to live for the moment as much as I can, I guess…
I know we will get through this. It takes patience and faith. But we will… I’m sending you a big hug dear Andrea 🫂💞🌱 thank you for being here ❤️
My whole family got sick and now I am sick❤but my worst member got sick so your episode is my break lounge
Your plants❤
I have pigeon couples come by to my bench same thing
Reena.. I’m so sorry to hear about your situation.. I’m sending so much love and strength to you and your family ❤️ you are such a sweetheart and I am so happy to have you here… ans I can relate so well to your situation.. I just hope you have all the support you need 🙏 and I’m happy that my channel can help you brighten the day a little bit 🌱 I’m sending you the biggest hug 🫂🍀💞 please take good care of yourself 🙏 love, Nastja
Really ? 😅 that’s synchronicity 🕊️😄
Do you have only one bedroom in your beautiful apartment
There is my son‘s room and the living room on the lower floor. There is a upper floor with two little rooms but I will have to take a subtenant into the apartment, so I can afford it. The living costs in west German cities are crazy unfortunately…
Grief takes time ❤️🩹
Yes it does… and it needs to be expressed… ❤️🩹🌱
