You’ve for sure hit most of the right buttons for the sneaky reasons of anxiety.
Some we don’t think about.
Some we cause because we don’t want to slow down, but don’t realize how fast we are going.
Thanks for sharing. I know I needed to hear this.
When I hit a different age I need different things. What you could take on in your 20’s is different from what you can take on now. I don’t care what our brain tells us. My brain still tells me I’m in my 30’s and should act like that. My body knows I am 53 and does its own thing. 😊
I feel you
Yes, a thousand times, YES! I’m 55.
Absolutely. It’s so important to listen to to ur bodies.
It's funny how our brains do that
57, postmenopausal and easily distracted. I use the timer on my phone to remind me to stay on task.
Do you realize how lucky you are to look out the window & see beautiful green foliage?🌳🌲🌿🍃
(I live in Scottsdale, Arizona🌵)
I do 🙏🏼🌲
I adore you! The comment about starting a new hobby when remodeling your kitchen made me literally LOL
🤣👋🏼❤️
Yes! Do one thing at a time just like anything needs to be taken one step at a time. I saw a great reel earlier (for moms with kids) that stated you can't have all 3 of these at one time so you have to choose one at any given time:
1. Being productive
2. Being present and playful
3. Resting and recharging
I love this. It’s not that you can’t have it all, but each one needs your full attention at any given moment to be “done well”. 🌟
You look way more relaxed. Glad you're doing better!
Thank you! I am doing WAY better mentally
Robyn - so true - I have had to hit a wall in order to realize that I need to declutter my commitments. I have finally learned to resist urges to add until I have removed some things. Love this video. Wishing you well
Thanks so much and I’m glad I’m not alone in this struggle! One in, one out. With things and time too. 💪🏼🤞🏼✅
I love how genuine you are. ❤👍🏼
Thanks Shelly!
I have to agree!!!♥️
This video is enlightening to me. I have been taking on too many things for me to feel in control. I am trying to make too many changes at once. I need to step back and decide what is most important to me in this season of life. Thank you so much for your videos. I appreciate all the time you put into helping others. So glad you are doing better . Take care!
Thank you!!
Hello sweet Robyn! I’d love your cookie recipe. I love lemon baked goods! 🍋🍋🍋
They're SO good, I linked the recipe here minimalisthome.ca/faves/#recipes
Thank you, thank you!!
I love your channel and I really love your authenticity and your love for people. Thank you for everything you do ❤
Thank you so much! 🌟🌷
I'm not surprised you felt bullied and anxious. That's a natural reaction when you are doing what's right but still getting in trouble, and you don't understand why. Crying is one way to let that horrible helpless feeling out.
Thank you!
I’m soooo glad you’re feeling better. I understand that high anxiety issue. I cared for or assisted caring for several close family members (including my dad)that were terminal plus my husband had serious issues at one point. All this was while working full time and my son went through a divorce. It was about 3 years straight of stress and my health really suffered! I’m very happy that you have sought help and are getting some relief❣️❣️I’m glad you are making time for yourself❣️. That’s something I have been doing too💜
Thank you! 🙏🏼💕
Even though I'm retired I had to let some things and activities go. I was running from one activity to another meeting until I realized I didn't have any spare time to just sit and read a book. You have to learn to prioritize
Totally!! Thanks
Single-focused. In my control (100% me) vs out of my control (other people). Project vs tasks. Energy management.
Yes - great notes! ✅🌸
I love your videos and your advice. I am so happy you are continuing with your videos!
Thank you!!
Thank you for this. This is so timely, I’m at the mid point of a multi week sick leave for minor surgery but I’ve been on the go since finally being diagnosed ADHD officially just before COVID. Since then and being at home, I embarked on a new mission to be as productive as possible (hi, Atomic Habits and Dana K White!) and dive fully into minimalism while going through a full gut home Reno by ourselves and holding down a new full time job. End result = BURNOUT. Not so productive. The surgery was a good eye opener that my health is first and as always, as I learn to destress, I sit here with my cup of tea in Ontario and watch your video which is, on point as usual. 🥰👏🏻
Good luck and I’m glad this message got to you at the right time! ❤️
I'm pulling for you. Loved this video.
Thank you Cookie!
You sound so much better! Thank you for this reminder!
I appreciate your videos so much.
Thanks! Yes! 🌹
Balance in the Force has been restored.
😄👍🏼💪🏼❤️
💕👌very true! Thank you Robyn!
Thank you!
So happy you’re back to yourself! ❤
Take care of you.
Thanks so much! Whew! 👋🏼🌟
Sabios consejos! Gracias, Robyn 🌻
Bless you Laura!!
I love this video- that is so true!
Thanks heather!
This was a great video! I like the thought of Pausing. Love your videos and find them so helpful!
Thank you!
I like the greenhouse, nice change. Im frazzled at the moment, but I remembered some of the things you've said recently, so I hit pause and grabbed my coffee and headed outside for a minute. Thanks ❤
Ooooh good!!!
Great advice that I need to take!!! 😊
I hope it helps! ✌🏼
Shout out from Columbus, OH! Love your videos. They always are so uplifting. Also, I was subscribed and somehow got unsubscribed, which seems to be happening to many content creators lately? 😢 Anyway...you are truly soothing to the soul! Be blessed.🙏🏼
Hey there!! Crazy that it's unsubbing people
Robyn, this was a great upload. I'm so pleased for you that you got this figured out for yourself and that you are so good at passing this message on to us.
Thank you! I’d rather be honest and find ways to keep sharing new learnings with this wonderful community!
Thanks for the video. I would like to have the recipe for your cookies now that you tempted us with it (lol). Have a good day!
Thanks! Not sure if I’ll get around to it, but email me and I’ll try!
Oh this message was just for me. We are currently gutting our kitchen. My husband is doing the work in the evenings and weekends. My stress level has been off the chart as I have had no stove or cupboards for months. I continue to try and do it all. You are so correct I've found I need to make time to do the things that I enjoy even with the mess. Decluttering has had to be put on hold.
Thank you for being God's messenger and blessing me.
You’re welcome! Good luck with your renovations!
This is called discovery of modesty which the true definition is awareness of your limitations.
Ooooh, thank you!! Feels like that
I LOVE lemon baked goods! 🍋 🍞
Your idea to make decluttering an ongoing project is helping me focus more.
Yep, sometimes we need to be humbled. 😏
Thank you!
I love your coffee cup!!!
Thank you!
Very honest human video .
Thanks so much 🙏🏼❤️
I’ve been dealing with anxiety and panic attacks for many, many years. In fact I know as a child and teen I did have anxiety but it didn’t hit me hard until I was a mom in my 30’s. I was at my happiest and then was overcome with anxiety. Sometimes you don’t even know why or where it comes from. Then of course there are things that happen in our lives where it is more understandable. If you take on too much in your life it makes sense that the exhaustion is going to catch up with you. You have to take a step back and question how you can better care of yourself by cutting some things out of your life. I’m sure we all understand Robyn’s feelings and will continue to support her.❤️🙏
Thanks so much and I hope you have an anxiety-free (or low) season. 🌷🤞🏼
I was supposed to have three weeks holidays at Christmas but we were so short staffed I volunteered not to have them till March
I had had time off with pay to look after my father with end of life in October so I didn’t actually have leave entitlements anymore. Flash forward to now I’m tired all the time my father had died in October and I have put my house on the market to sell so I can retire
Luckily my house is minimal and boarded on essentialist and still not sold I have two people wanting it
I know have leave on Monday for three weeks and four days and I’m sitting in the bathroom on my last work day in a mess my blood pressure is high normally low trying to get motivated
You can do it!
@@MinimalistHome just going through my rosters on leave and I’m short four days lucky I can chase that today before my days off the leave starts on Monday
So glad to see you sans tears! And that mug? WANT!
Thanks Madison! I got the mug at Chapters in Canada
My mother used to say if you want anything done ask a busy woman
SO true! haha
I love your videos. Somehow you make even serious topics enjoyable. A reminder that our ADHD brains love new things is so true!
Awww, than you!
Over achieving is a real thing!! I'm glad you are taking note and scaling back but I will still get a good laugh at you making cookies when you have to leave for word in 30 minutes LOL!
Thanks so much!
we all end up being a youtuber crying on the floor eventually lol even me (but I was in my beauty chair at my vanity table not the floor) it's ok we pick ourselves up and move on:) tfs
Oh thank you! Yes. I think it was a cathartic moment and in feeling much better now. 💕
Thank you so much!
Now I want Lemon Cookies!
🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋
They're SO good, I linked the recipe here minimalisthome.ca/faves/#recipes
I get down when I realize my AH. And I can't do what I used to do for the years ago. When I was 15 years old, I was making 6 loads of bread a day by hand having it rise on the top of my wood stove. Baking it in the oven of the woodstow and in between the days I would make homemade cream pops, homemade pies, homemade cakes. Apple pies that were made from the apples from Apple orchard and I And I would also Can all the peaches and all the apple sauce and on top of that? I would sole my own dresses at the age of fifteen. And I would go out to the garden and pick all the organic vegetables everyday day, I had something to do and I learned all this at 15 years old so now I look back and I've got this thing in my head. Oh I want to make homemade bread, i want to make some pies and want to do this? I want to do that and I started off and I say I can't do this anymore. And it's so frustrating and I have to get out of the house and forget about what I could do and deal with what I can do now. And when I see young girls in their 20s and they don't even know how to make homemade stew. Or they don't know how to make soup like I did when I was young, I say to myself. Why you haven't they learned how to do that. Not a lot of people are like that. But a lot of people I know they prefer going to fast food restaurants because it's easier or they Rather go pick up a pizza.
Thanks for sharing all this. Yes, times certainly have changed! Some young people (or not quite so young people) are interested in learning to make food from scratch, but you’re right that overall convenience has diminished our actual skills (& health, I would add!). 😥💕🌟
Sounds like you were a good mama and go to school at the same time
❤
👋🏼❤️
Umm I heard lemon cookies ... Where do I find this recipe?? 😋
They're SO good, I linked the recipe here minimalisthome.ca/faves/#recipes
how much do you pay for therapist i really like to now so may be i can get help too ? please let me
I'm not sure what their current rates are, but check out the link for more info ☺️
The UA-cam issue is separate from being overcommitted and stressed. If you are overcommitted, definitely retreat and regroup.
I think it's terrible and separate from being overcommitted that you were mistreated by that company and, I am assuming, you haven't reached a satisfactory resolution with that Goliath. In that case, I would contribute less to UA-cam and focus on your other more positive and productive projects. That's a completely reasonable and smart response to being mistreated regardless of being overcommitted.
I wish the best.
Thanks Elisa!
I am a perfectionist, and I suffer from a d d.
My son has an IQ of 150.
He takes Adderall once in a while to help him. Get focused when he needs to accomplish something that day.
He doesn't take it every day.
For me I have to take vyvance.
It helps my brain focus. But I don't take it every day only on a day when I know I have to get something done.
Both of us use the lowest dose because we don't want to get addicted.
So what I will do is take half the dose of vivance in the morning and within an hour. I'm starting to feel like my brain it's Organized.
If I don't take this, what happens? Is it feels like my brain has a mixed up puzzle out of it and when I take the medication? I'll send the puzzle pieces. Come together and I can accomplish about three times then without it.
I don't get distracted. I can do something and not have something else come to my mind.
I will go in to the bathroom and start cleaning. And then I'll end up going into the living room and start vacuuming. And then I'll go into the kitchen and I'll start doing the dishes. I will not stay with one thing at a time, and it's so frustrating.
But with vyvance I can go into the bathroom, clean it all out, and stay with it. I'm finished. Then go to the living And stay with that until I'm finished. And then when i'm finished I'll go into the kitchen and finish that. So like accomplish so much in the morning.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼💪🏼❤️
Sounds like you were a good mama and go to school at the same time.
It was a lot, but I’m glad I did it! 💪🏼❤️
Since your family may not want your cookies could you send some to me. ❤
They're SO good, I put the recipe here minimalisthome.ca/faves/#recipes
Decluttering your house is similar to remodeling. It affects every part of your life during this project.
Totally!
I believe God is leading me to do a UA-cam channel but I don’t understand what your talking about and it scares me. Also I am not good with criticism. He told me years ago. Pray for me please.
Praying for you Diana
I would never peg you as arrogant! 😮
Thank you. 🙏🏼 I guess it’s that I thought I was kind of invincible…?
@@MinimalistHome I think it was more like crisis mode. Stuff was happening all around you and you didn’t know what was important and what wasn’t. Added to that, how were you supposed to know who o ask for help? I’m glad you saw it after a while and was able to step back. I judge you not guilty of arrogance! Hugs!
