    my property keeps me fit: roofing, painting, mowing, weed-whacking, 80 foot garden, walking my dog twice a day, house cleaning, canning, cooking, flower beds - my arms and body are the strongest it have ever been, no fitness center ever gave me arms like this, nor the fresh air and barefoot grounding...sometimes the free things in life are the most beneficial...

    Used to go to the gym in my 20's then in my 40's walked 2 hrs a day now in my 50's I just walk 30 min a day it is so much more enjoyable I also might take a 10 min stroll after each meal that's the way people used to do it they used moderation and could actually enjoy the process rather than overdoing it and trying to maintain a routine that is really unmaintainable

    After months away caring for a sick loved one, I returned to my home late last night. Waking this morning to the sun streaming in, birdsong, and the familiar tone of a windchime I've had for years jiggling outside my window was the most comforted I've felt in many weeks. My home holds, comforts, and uplifts me like no other place. I'm experiencing a post pandemic financial realignment which means this home my not be my forever home as I had planned when I purchased it just three years ago. Knowing this makes me cherish every morning I have here all the more. Whatever happens the sun will always stream in, the birds will always start their day and mine with a song, and the melody of this favorite chime will drift through the breeze reminding me that home begins within me.

    I am definitely a morning girl...even now I get butterflies in my tummy when I wake up on the weekends, the morning sun peeking in my window extremely early, the smell of fresh coffee brewing and the excitement of seeing which of my berries are bursting to join my breakfast table ....I enjoy a freshly washed face, make up free, comfy lazy clothes, hair in a messy bun...bare feet on the warm kitchen floor boards as the sun streams in...enjoying my coffee on the deck, watching the ducks on the pond, the sun rising deliberately erasing the mornings dew...I love meditation as well, journaling, writing ....I find the mornings my best time for that...it's my mental exercise I suppose....I do however enjoy evening walks after dinner...when the shadows are longer and the sky's take on that reddish, orange glow...with promise of another glorious day ahead...watching the sail boats lazily drifting in after a day on the lake...then home, a glass of wine...watching fireflies and hoping to see a shooting star...always wishing for these moments to last longer....thank you for sharing your morning with us.

    I didn't think I was an exercise person. Until about 3-4 years ago. I started walking the trails/bridges near the local river in Virginia/USA. It is a very urban area and is public a hidden gem. I've lived here my entire life and didn't know all of what was down there until I started walking a half a mile down there occasionally a few times a week. Eventually worked my way up to about 8-9 miles on a regular basis. I found this initially to be more of a hobby (versus self care, etc.) until I stopped going. Then I realized how much it was impacting my mental, emotional wellbeing far beyond the physical changes. I'm still much more of a distance versus speed person. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you!

That way I am doing something that is an energising start to my day, it's undistracted "me time" and my family can also get some extra sleep without hearing me up too early! 🧘‍♀️🌅

    I envy you your well water. I grew up in a semi-rural area and we had a well ; the water is so soft and nice! Now, I live in a city with hard water. As for exercise, for years I have done my 5 Tibetan Rites, weight lifting for upper body, and jogged each morning before a breakfast of organic oatmeal with chia seeds, flax seeds, maple syrup or honey, and coconut beverage. I love the early morning since it's so peaceful and I can jog to the nearby park and meditate while the Sun comes up and visit with the birds & squirrels. Ironically (and fatiguingly!) I like late nights as well! Happy Springtime from Canada!

    My favorite form of exercise is walking, which I do around my neighborhood. I've also started walking barefoot at parks (I live in an apartment so no yard) where I can absorb the Earth's energy. According to "The Earthing Movie," it's shown to lower inflammation in the body after 15 minutes. It also just feels good to feel the cool grass and earth beneath one's feet. My favorite breakfast is scrambled eggs with curry, thyme, paprika, salt, baby spinach, goat cheese, and sauteed garlic (optional) for added zing. Thanks for sharing your weekend morning routine too.

    A walk in the woods with my dog, gentle daily Yoga, and now that it's summer, an hour outside gardening are how I exercise. I'm a night person though so I don't want to do much in the morning or have to talk with anyone, or rush. Too, when your body ages, it takes longer to warm up. In my part of the USA, we are about a month behind with growing food too - just the other day I put on thermal underwear! But things are slowly coming along and it seems the hot weather extends into October now so it's ok. Love pancakes - really enjoyed your Sunday video!

    I can relate to the challenge of getting exercise in... I know I need it and feel better after, but taking the first step takes a bit of effort. I find when I am anxious/ stressed I thrive on jogging, or other heart raising activities. When I’m angry I like to punch a bag or lift some weight, and when I’m sad I often feel like not moving at all but may do a little yoga or a walk to get the blood flowing.

    I am the same way. I don’t like jogging but love walks. Maybe because I like to observe the nature around me and running just is not the same thing.

    As a nurse, I always prefer healthy food options. The first drink of the day for me is hot water and lemon, then coffee. Breakfast is a whole grain gluten free cereal with banana, or almond milk yogurt with walnuts and raisins. My preferred exercise is walking, especially near the shore. Your videos are so soothing and instill mindfulness. Many Blessings.

    A morning walk is a good idea. I think I will suggest that to my husband as the days are longer. My eating kick lately has been when I discovered vegan cinnamon buns - so really need to get walking ha ha. My favourite form of exercise is yoga.

    I’m not an exercise person either but I try to put it in my schedule as much as I can. There is an app that helps get you up and go. it’s called 7M workout. It’s 7 minutes workout. It’s fun and I like it. And you may as well.

    Here in Maine, the sunlight stream into the dorm room I'm in around 4:50am to 5am and it wakes me up each time. Plus the silence following the sunlight...
    It's pretty cool! Way different than in Florida where the sun would poke in at around 6:30am and I would hear noise everywhere.

    Beautiful and comfortable video, as always. On the topic of exercise, which I personally love. I wasn't too inclined to it as an adolescent, but have developed a healthy desire for it throughout my 20s. I love cycling both outdoors and indoors. I was getting to spin classes regularly before the pandemic, and since then my partner and I have actually invested in a spin bike and a subscription to a service which provides spin classes for us. That is more expensive however, and if we didn't have the spin bike I would be cycling outdoors, going for long walks, doing some shorter strength workouts at home (I love these and I find the pass by quite easily), and the always constant in my life yoga.

    Now that I have had my vaccine, I went back to swimming and have been going most days. I love being in water the light, the movement, the feeling of weightlessness. I have been feeling so much better and started to incorporate a short walk around the fields when I get to work. this has helped me to destress.

    The birds are my alarm clock. I spent Saturday morning working in my garden getting everything mulched to survive the heat (mid 90’s now). I used to spend my weekends running/training for some race, but now find joy in gardening.

  • @kH-bv8ix

    Crepes, blueberry sauce, whip cream and over easy eggs with sausage spelled "weekend has started" growing up. Today, that seems too much time. A treat now is sipping espresso made on the stove in my Grandmother's cup.
    Laundry lines are not allowed in most neighborhoods where I live. But I went for a long walk, listened to the church bell hymns and brought the fresh air inside on my dress. It was wonderful.
    Cheers!❤

  • @sophiaj3401

    Hellou, thank you for the video it really has brought me some peace :)
    I just wanted to add something to the sleep thing:
    There are in general different types of people: those who go to bed early and wake up early (,,larks''), those who go to bed lately and wake up therefore late (,,owls'') and those in between. The Larks have some advantages in our society, whose circadian rythm fits better to the ''normal'' early working schedules - where in the contrary the owls have the disadvantage to go to bed or arise from it agaist their rythm. The circadian rythm even influences your concentration, so the larks have the advantage to show their full potential during their working time while the owls brain is still half asleep - when the owls full concentration shows up in the afternoon or early evening, it's often already time to go home - therefore it even happens that owls get worse jobs.. and on top they are even sometimes called lazy - or even irresponsible towards their bodies because of their sleeping behaviour. In reality it can even be unhealthy to be forced to ignore your inner rythm.
    On which time you feel the urge to go to bed also depends on your age and other aspects, but whether you're a owl, a lark or something in between always influences that. Therefore we shouldn't generally judge people who go to bed lately - they have simply another circadian rythm.
    There are even theories about WHY there are different types of ''sleepers''..One that at least made sense to me is this one:
    Long, long time ago sleeping wasn't at all as safe as nowadays(well in some places still isn't but let me continue), there were dangers that needed to be recognized early enough - otherwise it would have been critical to survive (after starting to sleep on the floor, it was a huge help to ''own'' fire but still there were risks). Back to my point: If people would have had the same sleep-rythm they would have been unprotected for 8 hours. If some of them got to ''bed'' 2 hours later (owls) and some wake up 2 hours earlier (larks), there are only 4 hours that are critical - and therefore higher chances to survive. It's logical right?
    All those infomation is just me trying to remember the facts from the book ,,Why we sleep'' from Prof.Dr.med. Matthew Walker (huge recommendation for everyone who is interested in sleep in general, it's reallly an incredibly fascinating topic) - so if anyone knows better, please, please, please correct me (and my English too)
    Besides the information above, I think listening to your body is almost always the healthiest thing you can do - whether this is going to bed early or late. To all the owls: it's probably a huge struggle between wanting to go to bed to your preferred time, trying to get your important 8 hours of sleep AND be forced to follow societys rules and on top even be judged and called lazy - hope things will change somewhen in the future so everyone can show their full pontential and live their healthiest life.
    Thanks a lot for reading
    please correct me if there's anything wrong
    Love, light, peace & blessings

    I used to go to the gym before work and take a walk during lunchtime but with covid, I’m working from home and I take walks at lunchtime with my dog (30 min) and a big walk at the end of the day with my dog again (1h) it helps to separate the office time and the rest time ! But I’m waiting for the pools to open again to diversify 😅

    Since I've retired I enjoy popping up before dawn and watching everything come to life out here in the WVa countryside. I drink my mug of coffee, putter about my house and write my gratitudes, emails and to-dos list for the day. In warm weather, I try to do any baking or laundry early in the morning so it doesn't fight against the air conditioning. Yesterday I baked a tray of ginger scones. Our summer is about two weeks behind usual thus year but I did find a small zucchini in my container garden yesterday. Yummy! The cicadas haven't started here yet but all the heavy rains have certainly encouraged the mosquitos!

    I've been really bad with not doing exercise for the past few months! Usually we'd go out for a long walk on a Saturday or Sunday. But the effects of sitting in front of a computer for long periods is really showing. So I've started jumping rope/skipping to get me more active during the week.

    I used to run 5 miles a day. Although, I do still love to run. My go to exercise lately has been walking my dog once or twice a day & stretching. If I have energy, I may even do a short workout for strength & tone but lately the walking has been really nice!! 💕

    We really look forward to your videos every week - you and my beloved sweetheart seem like kindred spirits, including your weekend pancake tradition! I just wanted to suggest you get a new frying pan. I recall hearing that once the non-stick coating begins to show signs of wear (scratching, flaking, etc) it's time to get rid of the pan, as the coating can be quite toxic. I'm not sure if that applies in your case, but I thought it best to send a note. Hope you receive it.

    Niamh, I really enjoy your videos. Especially when you hang out you clothes to dry it reminds me of my childhood and visiting my Grandmother... Here in the US homeowners associates don't allow hanging clothes such a shame... The best sleep I every had was on sheets that dried in the summer breeze!!! Thank you for bringing that memory back.....

    My favorite exercise is bike riding on the many rail trails in our area. I used to run, but now have 2 new knees and biking is way more fun than running ever was! Hope to travel to Ireland again but this time get to bike a bit in your gorgeous countryside! Pancakes are one my favorites as well.

    Exercise has changed for me at almost 58 years old. I used to be a fanatic about it - ‘no pain, no gain.’ But recently I learned a new breathing method which I do first before my walk. It has helped me immensely with managing my asthma so much better. Thus also making my morning walks so much more enjoyable. I now love my morning breath work followed by my walk. Feels so sacred. ❤️

    As I have chronic pain I’ve found that getting up sunrise early means I end up using up my energy super early in the day so having the extra time isn’t as beneficial as it could be. I have found just after 8 seems to be a good balance of not having to rush and not having too much time (too much time can mean I do too much out of boredom and burn out).

    A 15min HIIT workout is my go-to workout each day while drinking lots of water throughout followed by 5mins of stretching then the rest of the day is open to whatever I choose. Today was omelets with homemade salsa and tons of veggies and avocado on top. At the end of the day, it's a Reiki video which is how I meditate and prepare for sleep. Hope your day was lovely, Niamh. Namaste from BC Canada.
