- I tried becoming an Extreme Minimalist for a week to see how this unconventional lifestyle would affect me mentally and physically…and it was quite an eye-opening experience. Would you ever try minimalism?

We basically live an extreme minimalist lifestyle. Bed, sofa, chair, tv, clothes, 12 books, and a few other things. It takes about 3 hours to pack up our home and move. I can’t explain how freeing it is. Ask my kids, kind of got to see to believe haha. Awesome content.
Thats incredible Tony! And so impressive you're able to pack up the place so quickly!
Floor sleeping is actually the best for our bodies. The hard surface forces you to adjust every so often(good for blood flow and reduces sores), and is amazing for your spine. Your spine will relaxed against the hard surface letting it reset. Unlike a hammock or a cushioned mattress, which just curls your body at the hip. It’s the same idea, with cushioned arch support shoes creating weaker feet. But this is just the start of this rabbit hole
Literally just did a full clean-up and threw out a bunch of my stuff as well - feeling 100x lighter!!! Awesome Video 🙌
Yessss how good is that!! There is a great feeling you get after the declutterring process isn’t there!
@@AaronBarnesYT no matter how much I try I can never find the motivation to even clean my room 😭😂
@@teddytaffy4574 too much stuff is overwhelming, get rid of it.
Awesome video mate!
My non-negotiable's: pillow, glasses, Garmin, Garmin charger, runners & a good book. I think I'll forget about the work laptop! Wouldn't mind trying that hammock though!
Fucken great video my man I love the way you put it all together
Ahhh thank you my dude!! When we doing one together? 😜😁
You’re fit!
I absolutely devored this vid of you trying the process. I surely not consider EXTREME MINIMALISM as a lifestyle for me, but; living a MODERATE one is something I would cherished and I've started planning to do so. Another great vid. Thanks Aaron (:
That's awesome Antoine!! Thanks for watching mate!
love this video Aaron, you're a great storyteller!! We could definitely do with some more decluttering 😅🙌 Keep up the amazing work 💛
Ahhhhh thank you guys!! Let me know how you go, when I see you next I expect to see you sleeping on the floor 😜😜🤣
@Aaron Barnes haha floor squad 24/7 babyyyy 😅🙌
Such great storytelling man!! Awesome!
Mate best compliment I can hope for!! Really appreciate it dude!
@@AaronBarnesYT You got it mate!!!!

This is how I live now but not by choice its because I'm poor.
"thongs" lol 😂
great videos :) may i ask which programs you use for editing and all? will be very helpful, huge thanks in advance
I use Premiere Pro and occasionally After Effects for animations!
Nice fast paced video bro, idk how you do this haha you couldent pay me to sleep on the floor XD
Thank you my man!! Hahaha get out 😂😂 it’s not as bad as you think haha
Ahha this is great!!
Cheeerrrss my man!!!
Great video 😊
Nice edit bro
Thank you dude!!
Fun take. I sit and sleep on the floor by choice (you need a yoga block). Other than that, I have too much stuff.
Interesting to see your experients! What if you try fasting some of Ramadan this year?
Love that idea!! Is definitely on the list!!
Awesome video mate! You remind me a lot of Ryan Shelton, idk why haha
thank you mate! hahah wow ill absolutely take that as a compliment 😂
He doesn't know the difference between a multi tool, and a Swiss army knife. Don't listen to him.
Damn son, quality video mate
Ahhh appreciate it my dude!!
Aaron, I really liked the editing in this video. But, as a UA-camr myself, I really value honest critical input. There is something wrong - just my opinion of course - and it might be that it's 3:43AM and I chose the wrong time to watch it. But it just seemed too fast to me. Almost like I had accidentally set the playback speed to 1.5. There was so much content, but it was squeezed into 7:24. I really like the video, but I feel like I didn't have time to appreciate the individual pieces. I'm stepping out of my comfort zone to leave this comment, but only because your content seems so good that I feel like it would be wrong to not say something. I know how hard it is to find truthful feedback on my own work, so hopefully this comment doesn't come across as offensive. (and I'm just one person, I might just be high or something 😆)
In fact - I am rewatching it set to 0.75 speed, and it's much easier for me to absorb at this speed. If I could choose I'd go for 0.8 probably.
Hey mate! Really appreciate your feedback and honesty! This is something I’m really trying to work on but as you’ve highlighted I’m obviously still struggling with it. I feel like when I’m editing it, I’m always thinking about engagement and retention whilst also not wanting the video to be dragging on too long, and I guess that has been coming off as quicker edits rather than taking the time to let the audience absorb. I appreciate you responding to this as it’s reinforced the need to slow things down even further. Thanks mate 👍
@@AaronBarnesYT Totally get it - I feel the same way when editing. Then at some point I go too far and it becomes unnatural so I start going the other way or it's too late and I've already published lol. Looking forward to the next video man, I subscribed a while back and turned on notifications so this popped up on my phone. This was better than 90% of entertainment videos out there, so my comment was someone nitpicky, but I would definitely encourage you to take the time, like you say, to slow things down a bit and let the audience absorb and just be confident in your content. Do you create drafts of your videos as they progress and have people review them?
@@DadBodForever haha yeh I definitely feel you! Nah mate I really appreciate the comment, because its re-confirmed the need for me to dial it back a notch, so I really appreciate the feedback. I do send drafts, but often I'm trying to push a vid out a week and it's taken me the entire week to edit haha so I just skip that part, but I think I need to get back on that reviewing train haha
@@AaronBarnesYT I'm gonna hop onto this two week old convo and gently suggest you apply the philosophy of minimalism to your approach to filming and editing. If it's important to keep your videos short and to the point I think it would help to reduce how much you're trying to communicate. Or go the opposite direction and be fine with 20 minute videos. I think right now you're trying to have it all and it's a bit overwhelming and crowded feeling.
U always do such extreme such for your fans! this is why i love yr videos! also man, 2.2k subs!!, last time i checked it was 500 subs, keep growing!!
Ahhh thank you Parth!! Always loving your support!
u should try the carnivore diet. its better for your health and all u need is beef to survive. has every nutrient the body needs. and since your an extreme minimilist u should try lion diet. beef, salt and water.
I'm studying nutrition and dietetics in uni and what we are being taught here is that a plant based diet is more healthy than animal based diet. So I'm curious on where you got your info from?
@@ethiopiazoldyk4667 my own experience. I have crohns disease and no longer on meds.
@ethiopiazoldyk4667 I was reading a book called performance without pain and it led me on this journey. Talks about weston price who went around the world in the 1930's to try and find the healthiest diet. And it led me on the journey to carnivore diet after doing more research on the subject. There's a lot of Dr out there with great information like Dr Anthony Chaffee and Shawn baker
lolololol -bowl could be a plate easily- i have 5 pair of blackk pants and never wear underwear
Hahaha almost the same 😂
Keep going dude
Thank you! Will do 💪
that's amazing 🤩
Thank you!!!
Aaron Barnes: VERY INTERESTING!
You still have too much stuff.
Your videos amazing and you are beautiful always. I love you too 💖⭐🌼
😊
Extreme minimalism food wise is actually carnivore - all you have to eat is meat, which is one item, not 15 different vegetables.
Oh you Are joking. 😂🙃

definitely copied from “the unlazy way” nothing wrong with taking inspiration but if your copying directly you could just give some credit 🤷♂️
