I am a licensed massage therapist, daily stretching or yoga outside of your van on a mat and a tennis ball to release the tight areas in your shoulders and spine, you can do that on your bed, especially if it is firm enough. Simple equipment for the van that does not take up much space. Try thai yoga massage, it is the best, you will feel like you never had an ache and pain in your body after that massage. Make sure the therapist has years of experience in that modality. This is after you are healed.
This winter when I was in Arizona in the backcountry the ground was pretty wet and dusty for such things. I did use picnic tables when they were available. Nothing heals more than doing less of what aggravates the issue. For now I will enjoy being at my Tiny Home and heal. Thanks for the wise advice. Cheers!
@@NinthElement ok, I love your tiny home, not trying to preach, find what you like and works for you.
How do we use the tennis ball between the shoulders? @@cherylbrunette2490
Mindy I just love that tiny home with the bath out side...gorgeous!! Thank you!!!
Hi Dottie, thanks for watching. Cheers!
I'm loving this phase of your life. Tiny homes with the bedroom on the same level as the main parts of the house are the kind I love the best. You are in such a beautiful location. Please do share some of your cooking with us. Your food has always looked so yummy!
Thank you Mary, I will do my best. Cheers!
Since you asked for feedback, I love learning how simply we can live, especially in small space. How big is that space? Just love watching daily activities of living with less, cooking cleaning shopping budgeting working wellness practice socializing etc. Love your content!
All of your questions are awesome and I will answer them in upcoming videos. I have been working on downsizing and becoming more minimal for 5 years now. I too enjoy this kind of information. Thanks for being here, and I will see you next week. Cheers!
It's great to see you relaxing and enjoying your forced time "ongrid"! I would have gladly snapped that beautiful place up too! Especially when you get handsome furry visitors like the Bacon Bandit! 😊❤
I love me some of the "Bacon Bandit" he is such a love bug. Cheers!
Wow those flowers are amazing! I thought they were fake lol they’re perfect! Glad you’re doing well! ❤Back pain is no joke.
Pain in My Back has a whole new meaning. My Land Mate just brought me a new bouquet for this week, and it is the last of the Snapdragons and Feverfew. Next I will be getting Dahlias! So excited. Cheers!
You were living my dream while you were out traveling and now you're living my other dream in the tiny house on that beautiful property! Such an inspiration! I'm about 8-10 years behind you but in the meantime I'll live it vicariously thru you. ❤❤❤
I LOVE this comment. Dreams Do Come True! Cheers!
What a relaxing space. I def could downsize to a space this size. Love the tub and sauna! Again, those pearls. Love them.
Thank you Debra, Cheers!
Thanks for sharing. Where you are in your journey is more similar to where we are. Me, my beloved, and my brother share a manufactured home, which we have taken as a very street legal tiny house. We are using a lot of ideas from the tiny house world and the van life world, and love watching videos and actually implementing the ideas (like multiple modes of space use, shelves on walls that do not affect the floor space, and wise furniture what holds a lot of stuff but does not dominate the room). Once one gets the right mindset it seems logical. We, too, decided to not go for a loft and to keep everything on one level. We also work on a beautiful outside and like our garden (and even have a few Buddha statues too). Blessings and always keep it real like you do!
YAY! Welcome here. I will be sharing lots of tips and tricks on living in Tiny in an SUV camper as well as my Tiny Home. See you on the next one. Cheers!
Enjoying the rest.. cute tiny home, lovely food (keep showing us tips and tricks and healthy eating!) and showing us great self care is so inspiring too. Thanks and best wishes/prayers for healing!
Thank you Susan, I will do my best. I appreciate you, Cheers!
Great place to heal & relax , so peaceful ❤😊
I could not agree more. Thank you Dora, Cheers!
Good for you! Your videos are fun to watch. Glad your back is getting healed.😊
Thank you so much! Cheers!
Hi Mindy! Awesome to find your video! 😊
You did such a great job building that gorgeous credenza! My goodness, such talent! 💪🧠👩🔧😊
Your tiny home is just so special. I love the style and decor. Your landlady sounds like the Best person ever to have around. Her flowers are absolutely stunning and how lovely it is that you get them presented to you so often. Brightens ones soul, in my opinion, to have a vase or two of them around.
I was all ready to sign on the dotted line six yrs ago for my own tiny home, until I was told that the quote I was given, had not taken into consideration everything required for solar. That made all the difference as to whether I could actually afford it, or not. Was gutted with this news, to say the least. So van it was.
I've just spent five days clearing out my storage unit. Tough decisions had to be made about what went and what stayed, with me in my van. So little room. Many items sadly went searching for a new home with the help of the hospice charity shop. Spending hrs going through the 60 yr collection of my late parents photos, knowing that they couldn't all be kept. I am still having to make a path to my bed each day, as I decide what might fit where. Very sad that so many of the young generation, notably here my two granddaughters, have no interest in collecting the odd piece from generations passed, to pass on to their young ones one day. Different times. Their Dad, my youngest, has always had an interest in past generations in his family in that respect, but his wife is of a different culture and was not brought up with those thoughts. But, as I always say ' it is what it is' and this Nana is still doing her utmost 'not to sweat the small stuff' so to speak.😊 By doing what I have, I have saved my sons from having the need to do so much once I have departed 😉🙃🙂.
I adore your little furry bandit buddy btw Mindy.❤
A ghastly cold wet day here Mindy. 🌧☔❄ So pleased that you are faring better in that department there, atm.
Love your bath! Oh how I miss being able to do that! Used to looove my soaks, to help ease my aches 'n pains!
Another looong comment from across the pond!! Sorry Mindy! 🌞 Sending Hugs.
🕊 💌 💐 🙋♀️ 🚐 🌏 🗺 🧭
Leslie, I always love your long sweet messages. Remember writing and mailing letters to friends and family? I always enjoyed that, giving and getting. I am moving out of my storage unit as I write this and unpacking what I just paid 2 years to store. I wonder how much I will still want? Next week's story here. Sending warm regards and hugs, Cheers!
Mindy just keep being you we love your new content
Thank you so much for the love and support, I appreciate you. Cheers!
Good morning Mindy 🙋♀️ Your tiny home 🏡 is so cute ❤😊 Really nice credenza,❤️😊 Hope you feel better soon ❤😊 Have a great day ❤️😊
Good to see you Emilia, thanks for watching this one. Cheers!
Love, love, love your tiny house!! Hope your back is doing better! Take time to heal but I do miss your smiling face 😊. Hugs from NE Ohio.
Thanks for the support. This is a "long game", and I am taking my time with it. Cheers!
@@NinthElement Absolutely. Your adoring fans will be here. 🥰
I am so sorry to hear about your back! I am glad you are recovering! Hugs!
The healing and PT will be a long game, but I am beyond grateful for having this beautiful space to heal in. Thanks for being here, Cheers!
Hi Mindy, love, love your Tiny house it looks so peaceful. The flowers are gorgeous. What a woman putting your credenza together, looks great. I was never one to tackle a project like that and admire people who do. Your videos are so relaxing to watch. Cheers❤❤
Hi Pat, it warms my heart to know that other people enjoy simple beautiful content like mine. Life is an adventure with so many lessons, and I am happy to share mine. It is the fingerprint that I want to leave behind to inspire others. Thanks for being here Hun, Cheers!
That is a magical place! It has everything one would want to live a great life. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Linda, I was praying for a place like this, albeit I don't own this and I am renting it, but as soon as I changed my expectations this place appeared. Thanks for being here. Cheers!
Thank you for welcoming us to your home!
You know I always hit the thumbs up before I watch the video… You know why, because anything you do and anywhere you do it is always calming and an inspiration to me.
Love your safe place (tiny home).
🌻🐝🧡
Thank you Lauren, this is so kind of you. Cheers!
I'm enjoying getting this content as much as I do your other content. I'm an Oregonian, too. Welcome home, E/S area myself
I LOVE Oregon! Thanks for being here, and enjoying the hybrid content. Cheers!
What a priceless piece of paradise! Such a dreamy space to relax in and to live in. I absolutely love it! Thanks again Mindy for sharing it with me. It’s very near perfect.
Hi Rita, I could not believe my luck when I found this space, and the timing of it with my back going out. Absolute Heaven. Cheers!
All that yummeh food looks so delicious and wholesome! Now that I'm on the road FT, I miss the ease with which I could whip up my favorite meals.
I know what you mean. Happy travels, Cheers!
The flowers are Gor-geous!!
They really are. Cheers!
Ahaha, it me. I'm the weirdo who wanted to see the bathroom lol. This is about the size of tiny house I want to do eventually, so I was curious to see how they did the bathroom since the rest of the house is so spacious. I love the outdoor shower and bathtub! Although I'm wondering how freezing it will be in winter
LOL! Weirdos are SO welcome here. I had no idea that showing every foot and inch of this space was going to be so popular. Thank you for letting me know what my viewers want to see. I will be going into more in depth details of this space as the questions come in, so thanks for participating.
Cheers!
Lol…I do everything by myself!!!👠🚌👠
Lady Power! wooo-hooo! Cheers!
What a gorgeous place! Love it! Glad to see you're moving a little easier - just take it slow!
Hi Patti, thank you for the well wishes. I am almost back to good again, I just have one pesky spot in my back that will not relax. Working that kink out now. Cheers!
How could we not love to see you cook? We all love to eat, right? ❤😊
Such a sweet suggestion. I will do my best to show what I can on that level. I too love cooking content. Cheers!
Your outdoor tub is AMAZING!!!
I know right!? This is such an amazing space inside and out for healing, and my Land Mates are the kindest people ever. Today I got another flower delivery!!!! xoxoxo! Cheers!
I love your home, that bear claw tub is lovely ❤😊 I am ready for a tiny home. ❤
In my opinion, as a single person, Tiny Homes make the most sense for your time and money. I plan to demonstrate all of the ups and the downs...if I find any downs to it. Cheers!
@@NinthElement 🤎💫
This whole set up is fabulous!!! Good for you !
You will not believe how I manifested this space. I am going to share that with you soon. Stay tuned, Cheers!
I love your videos and everything you share with us. Your voice is so soothing too. I wasn’t feeling well one day, and fell asleep. I woke up to the sound of your voice and it made me feel better. Thank you!
Karla this is such a sweet message. I appreciate you, Cheers!
How relaxing😊
It really is, Cheers!
Hi beautiful lady, what a cute little sanctuary you're blessed with, and it comes with adorable part-time fur baby. Cheers from Napa Valley 😊
Thank you Christy, the Bacon Bandit is one of my favorite spirits on this land. Cheers!
Hybrid is my channel's middle name, too! 🤣😂🤣 I'll watch anything you post.🤗
Tim, thank you so much for your continued support and friendship on UA-cam. I appreciate you, Cheers!
Cute place , love the outdoor tub
Thank you Tammy, the outdoor tub and shower are by far my favorite things. Cheers!
I thoroughly enjoyed this!!!!
Thank you so much for being here, Cheers!
Your home is beautiful!!!
👠🚌👠
Thank you Grace, Cheers!
Such a beautiful space to call home for the near future! LOVE the outdoor private soaking tub! Good job on the Ikea credenza....that looks perfect for that space and use. THANK YOU for reminding me about Snapdragons! I'd totally forgotten how much I love those. I've been so focused on perennials the last few years...I forgot about some of the annuals that I love. I'll be going and buying some plants next week! Enjoy and heal well, Mindy!🥰
Thank you for the well wishes Kimmy. Yes, do look into snapdragons, they are so beautiful. They will bloom into December here if the weather is mild enough, and they are planted close to the house. Cheers!
I’m enjoying the journey for sure! Are u sure your back is good with this project? Lol I admire your get up and let’s get to it attitude. Can’t wait to see the finished product 👍👍
Hi Roxanne, lol! NO! My back hurt like mad after this, it was so angry with me. So I laid on the floor and looked at my new cabinet. I am doing better now, thanks for asking. Cheers!
Enjoying your content in the new digs..
Thank you. Cheers!
OMGoodness!~ Thus place feels like you are in a Swedish guest house ~ perfection!! 👍💕✌️
Hey there. It really does have the Scandi vibe to match me. I really lucked out and travelled 40K to find this home. I am so happy to be here. Cheers!
Mindy, I would love to see you cook from start to finish. I am always looking for something good and nutritious to eat
Thanks fir this inspiration. Cheers!
Love the tiny home, but what sold me is that tub and sauna aaaahhhhh ❤❤❤❤❤
Me too! I spend a lot of time in both. Cheers!
You have a beautiful place/space!
Thank you Sarah, Cheers!
I'm actually actively watching now. Beautiful flowers!!!
Wow, IKEA has really good manual! Large enough, where you could see it! List everything in the box including screws! I have never bought anything from IKEA. I’m pretty impressed with the. Instructions it shows that they care about their customers after they sell a product. ❤ it
This was actually from TEMU, and so were the chairs. It is just like assembling IKEA furniture...but you do need a power screw driver and a tiny hammer to make light work. Cheers!
My Smeg fridge had that same squeaky door hinge. A little silicone grease fixed it right up! Your house is beautiful…
lol! There are no sneaking snacks without the Bacon Bandit hearing the fridge door!!! Thanks for the tip, the door is greased and quiet now. Cheers!
Cheers! I also have a Honda Element! No good tips for that, though!
Nick Stice the Honda Whisperer at Tonkin Gresham Honda in Oregon is all the tips you need for your Element. His contact info is listed below this video in the description. Cheers!
Awesome! Thank you! I’m on Vashon Island so not too far from him!
What a beautiful tiny home! I love it!!!
Hi Susan, thank you. Cheers!
I'd love for you to try some cooking content. AND thanks for continuing to vlog even though you can't travel right now. Take care of that back of yours.
Thank you for this suggestion. When I film what I love, the edit that comes out to you turns out wonderful, because it is honest and real. I will continue to do my best, and bring you fun content. Cheers!
Hi, new sub here, your Vlog popped up on my you tube for the first time today. Wow, what a place you have there, absolutely love it! Wonderful bouquet your friend gifted you. I was so envious of your bath, I also suffer from back problems but unfortunately only have a shower room and nowhere to put a bath. Will look through to find more of your Vlogs. Best wishes from the UK.
Hello from across the pond. Thank you for joining me and my beautiful community. I strive to live a balanced adventurous life and I love sharing how I am able to do that. See you again soon, Cheers!
Self care is essential and you do it sooo well. Hope your back continues to heal . Hugs
Thank you Kathy, the little things add up to big wins. Cheers!
nice space w nice finishes.
Glad you like them! Cheers!
Amazing!!! I would love to know where one can have an outside tub in US. Must be Florida? lol Idk. BUT your tiny on the inside is gorgeous. I love all your choices. I would love to see outside too and HOW you found it etc etc etc. This is so wonderful! Thank you
This Tiny Home is located in central Oregon. Sadly I will not be showing too much of the outside beyond what I have already shown. For my Privacy and Protection as well as the confidentiality of my Land Mates. Safety first. Cheers!
What an absolutely beautiful space. A piece of heaven.
Thank you Naomi, I am so proud to call this my home. Cheers!
Been watching you I think it's about 3 years now the famous birthday party with the broken bus hitch we fell in love with you then and we're still in love with you❤
Awwww Shucks!!! This is so sweet. Now we are celebrating baby birthdays with that crew. Life evolves, and so does our journeys. Cheers!
Super cute pad!!
Thank you Heather, Cheers!
Just lovely ☺️ 🥂
Thank you! 😊 Cheers!
Love your house!
Thank you, I feel abundantly grateful to have a home again. Cheers!
You did an AWESOME job building that! It fits perfectly in that spot! It "belongs" there. Congratulations!
Thank you so much, Cheers!
I love the content! Keep up the awesomeness! Xoxox
Thank you! Will do! Cheers!
Laud I would loose my mind if I knew I had to put that together. Just looking at it on the screen gives me anxiety 😮
Cheers!
OMG that piece of furniture came with a textbook!
This kind of stuff builds patience for sure. Think of it like a giant puzzle. It is good for your mobility and brain to do projects like this. Cheers!
Okay, I am soooo envious of that outdoor tub with the backdrop of that beautiful location! That, alone, makes your new "base camp" absolutely fabulous! And on the cooking, I actually enjoy watching you make those yummy looking healthy meals. I would not mind at all if you would share more of that. Whatever you wish to share is always appreciated. See ya next week. Love and Light! Oh, and good job on your new furniture addition :)
Thank you so much for this input Stephanie, I appreciate knowing what other people are watching and enjoying. I just may do more cooking Vlogs, as you know I love to eat and cook. Cheers!
Happy Summer Solstice Mindy and all the Familia here. 🎆🌞🌎🤸♂I hope you are resting well these days and have found a way to minimizing pain and strengthening. We are sheltering in and staying cool here. Would you advise DIY on your findings on the most economical/best solar energy solutions that you have found in your years of Ninth Element On the Road ventures please. We are worried about losing the Grid (as is Projected) and would like to buy some thing to utilize for maintaining refridgeration /energy. Thanks☯ 💟 Sending Best from the Hill Country of Texas! Magdalena
Hi Magdalena, Happy Summer Solstice and Full Summer Moon to you and yours. My recovery has been slow, but it is going. Dang It! I am so sorry that you are experiencing this incident. Power needs for one in a Tiny Camper vs power needs for a home with multiple people will be different. Check out @WillProwse on UA-cam, he will cover what your family needs and have active coupon codes. I will be using an AllPowers 2000 watt and a Jackery 2000 watt pro for needs this Winter if we lose power. When you get your battery plug your fridge into it and practice like it is a "real scenario". See how long it lasts. Put water bottles in your freezer and when the power goes out, transfer a few to the fridge, this will help the fridge to run less while conserving your battery. You can cycle the fridge on and off manually to conserve energy too. Good luck friend, you got this. Cheers!
Thanks Mindy - How FUN you are! I am in the process of setting my Dodge Ram 1500 up for Solar Power, and also considering the long HOT summer here at our house. By the way I am in the process of designing 2 add on bathrooms for 2nd Floor, and I am now going to add one on our outside porch with a sauna! It's all about the quality of our day to day life - right?
I hope your healing is super charged with this Solstice and Boon of Solar Energy.
I understand completely, as I was hit by a drunk driver and manage with 6 herniated discs. As I have aged, it has become more complicated and led to a severe depression which darn near killed me. Thru therapy ( all kinds possible) Family and Friends - I have survived. I must admit that You Tubers have had a real impact on my Social Awareness. In Finding Like Minds over the Past 2 Years, especially here on your channel, the Journeys shared help to know we are just a click away from a Community who can share concerns and love.
It means so much. Have a great week! Sending Best ☮💟Magdalena
This is such a kind and supportive comment. I appreciate you. Cheers!
One more thing, the food looks great 👍
Thank you 😋 I am changing things upall aroundd me. Cheers!
I love your tiny home. It's perfect for you. Keep the videos coming. I really enjoy them.
Hi Trudy, I am happy that people enjoy the variety of content that I am sharing. It really means a lot to me that you show up and watch, and actually enjoy it. Thank you, Cheers!

I really hope to say HI to you finally, since you are totally my ELEMENT INSPIRATION!!! In any case hope you feel better and keep up the good work!! Love from Sweet Home
Thanks for always watching Stacy, Cheers!

Hi Lori, I love that I am attracting like minded people. This is the best part of this journey. See you down the road...in my favorite place Astoria. Cheers!
@@NinthElement my pleasure 😇
Mindy, I am loving your new tiny! I hope you’re back and you are feeling better. Love from Central California.
Thank you. I have good days and I still have bad days. This is a long slow game. Cheers!
Hi mindy, man that clawfoot sure looks relaxing love that spot you have there! Hope your back is getting better be careful dont slip in the tub,castiron is very unforgiving ❤❤
Ouch! That would hurt! lol! Cheers!
Awesome place to recoop, glad to hear you're feeling better.❤
Thank you. I am not 100% yet, and I don't know when that will happen, but I am grateful for where I am today. Cheers!
That place is so adorable. I’m looking for a place to rent and praying I can find a cute place.
May you find the perfect place for you Julie. Cheers!
Hi Mindy Love the new pad!! Are you going to the campout and meetup in Gresham next weekend?
Always great content Mindy❤ might you have Canadian family recipes you care to share on here? Sending healing thoughts to you!!❤
I love the idea of Canadian recipes. I will have to consider this. Thank you for being here and the well wishes. Cheers!
Take care❤
Thank you, Cheers!
Wow - 6 weeks into a back injury is one serious injury - a 70 yr old masters athlete and sounds like a life style change is needed specifically to your core - after recovery of course. I don’t know if you do weights or balance exercises which would activate your core.? Know you have a bike but not sure how much you use it? Your van life does seem a bit sedentary, I travel in a van and make sure I do a minimum of 90 minutes of swimming, biking or running daily 6 days a week. Good luck with your continued recovery, but maintenance needs to be incorporated daily. You got this Girl !
Thanks for all of this wise advice. Building my core...in more ways than one. See you on the next one, Cheers!
Smile just a new chapter..I stepped in crumbling asphalt tripped took both of my knees out..much better..but oh the pain
Wow…. Good luck to you.! Videos of folks living in traditional homes is beyond boring to me……as was this one. Let us know if you get out and have some adventures.
Hi Brad, this is such a kind and uplifting comment. Often when UA-cam Content Creators pivot they can lose viewers and interest. I appreciate you being here and participating in the comments. See you next week, Cheers!
When will you post?
Thanks for checking in. I am taking a Social Media break while I tend to my back. When I am healed I will return. Cheers!
So Mindy,did you buy this beautiful tiny home? I've also been looking for property to put a tiny home on and would allow me to park my 22ft. Travel trailer. But I've not had any luck. Because I'd like a view and privacy too. Lol. I keep looking. Love watching your channel. And yes Dreams do come true 😊
Hi Donita, this is a long term rental until I find my own property. I came off the road because of my back, and I needed a break to focus on other pursuits and hobbies. Cheers!
Try also adding Borax and Baking Soda to bathtub..
I know about baking soda, as I do that occasionally, but please share with us here, what is the Borax for? Thank you Laurie. Cheers!
@NinthElement Borax can eradicate skin bacteria, dead skin cells & excess oils. Yet, it seems to not deeply penetrate the skin. Can also use Bentonite Clay to detox Heavy Metals.
Love this, thank you. I have used Borax for my laundry. Who Knew? Cheers!
I always heard ikea furniture is hard and frustrating to put together 😂
This was from TEMU, it is just like IKEA furniture, and yes it does take many hours to assemble. Cheers!
Mindy would you consider buying a van something you can stand up in as a future travelling home.
If something caught my eye and inspired me, maybe? But honestly I prefer to travel in my Honda Element, as it is so easy and I can sleep literally anywhere. That is priceless on the road these days. I can stand up in Tank the Toaster. Stay tuned for that. Cheers!
How do you go about finding landmates? Also saw your restroom but is that your only tub/ shower is outdoors
I network wherever I go, and I let them know what I am looking for. Patience and perseverance led me to here. My only shower and bath tub are outdoors with hot water running to them...and before you ask...YES I will be using them in the Winter when I am here. I shower outside all year round out of my Honda Element. Cheers!
@NinthElement oh I don't mind the shower outside or bathe , but the reason I was asking is because I am a single grandmother who adopted her granbaby 6 yrs ago so that's why I was asking / referring to privacy. I absolutely love your new home and setup and glad to see you doing better .
What is 'Borch' (?)
It is Beet Soup, a main dish in Russia and the Ukraine. It is super delicious and healthy. Cheers!
You are very fortunate to be able to move around like you do with back probs,I can hardly walk ,much less building things ," God Bless you" Mindy
On a good day I move and film what I can, on a bad day I lay flat on my back...nobody wants to watch that kind of content, nor do I want to film that. Too depressing. Thanks for watching, Cheers!
Is it the landlords dog?
It is my Land Mates dog, but I think he has adopted me into the fold. Cheers!
@@NinthElement 🤣 it looks like it.
❤😎✌️💞👍🙏💯
Cheers!
do you have a shower inside your house?
Yes. I showed it in last week's video >>>>ua-cam.com/video/VLHgxvhQ0VA/v-deo.html. Thanks for watching, Cheers!
