How I Take Time To Disconnect, Rest & Reset While Living Alone | slow living & minimalism

- A little vlog consisting of a quiet day alone with me and some inspiration for simple and slow living - including how to rest, reset and prevent burnout.
Sometimes, life can get really busy and it can be difficult to find time to wind down and disconnect. I really needed some time to wind-down and enjoy the simple things - time outside in nature, reading and baking. A productive reset day in my life living alone.
I want to share in this video some tips for how to slow down in life particularly when things can get a little overwhelming and we need time to rest and recuperate.
Simple and slow living for me is about spending my time more intentionally and enjoying the present moment, even if that does mean embracing a little spontaneity from time to time which I certainly found of benefit during this vlog 😃
I hope this video is helpful and you enjoy spending the day alone with me, embracing the simple things and taking the time to disconnect and rest.

Wishing you a happy and peaceful day wherever you are!

I wish when I was your age I’d had your insight. Working on better balance now at age 59
It’s a life long journey of trial and error I believe! But it’s certainly never too late!😊 Wishing you the best🫶✨
It’s lovely to see all the nature around you. I live in a city with absolutely no nature around me so walking is not really attractive, but I need to live somewhere with everything around me because I don’t drive. I always keep every Sunday as a day for myself and love to sit on the couch with a book, reading and being in an other world ❤.
Thank you!☺️ I am very fortunate to have spots so close by but it could be worth looking into public transport routes you could get from the city to local hikes?🤷♀️ I know that’s quite common these days but your Sundays sound pretty perfect as they are too!🫶✨
I have recently come across your channel Holly and I am so grateful for you. I recently experienced a bout of burnout and depression, and it's becoming clear to me that I've been neglecting my need for guilt-free rest and self compassion - your videos highlight to me the importance of taking care of myself, and that simplicity is often the key to a fulfilling life. I also live on my own and absolutely adore it when I'm in a good frame of mind - I enjoy that you are championing this by living it happily and wholesomely! Thank you for being you, you radiate peace and beauty and it's so comforting
Thank you for your lovely comment Anna! And welcome to the community☺️🫶 Really humbling to hear my content has helped you so far and that you resonate a lot with my experiences too!😊 There really is so much joy and beauty in simplicity and taking time to slow down, a mindset that has hugely helped me in difficult times!🙂 Wishing you all the best and plenty more content to come!🥰
Thank you for a beautiful, peaceful video. Those bagels look yummy!
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed this!🫶 I am writing up the recipe and it will be in the description shortly!🥯☺️
Thank you for giving 6 minutes of peace and good feeling, I really enjoyed
So glad you enjoyed this one!☺️ Appreciate your kind words!🫶✨
I've spent a quiet day myself, alone in the Italian Alps. It snowed all day, and the atmosphere was truly magical. Just watched your video in front of the fireplace. That mischievous look when you hit the soon-to-be-bagles! 😄
Wow sounds amazing and the perfect little set up!🪵⛰️☺️ It was a good stress relief for sure🤣 Thank you so much for watching and greetings to the Italian alps!✨
you know I am always so amazed by you..first your sunshine personality has this wisdom and gentleness like a grandma would ..but then looking at you …your this heavenly young woman who’s beauty is that of angels….it’s like you have taken the best of everything and created yourself out of it ….Holly the quality of the food you make and your cooking skills is mind blowing to me…I love this video so much ..❤
Thank you for your lovely comment, this certainly made me smile!🥹 Really glad you enjoyed this one! I appreciate your kind words of encouragement and support! Thank you for watching🫶✨
You are so blessed to live where you do, to have peace around you, and a gorgeous countryside that is so at one with nature. So lovely to see your enjoyment. It is something I hope for, something I wait for, something I'm made for
Thank you! I do feel very blessed indeed and never get bored of the stunning scenery and silence of the country!⛰️ I wish you luck with your journey to the countryside, it sounds like where you will inevitably be✨
@@lagomholly thanks for your nice wishes! Silence is golden, and speech is silver. I live in the suburbs of New England, it is not the countryside, but does offer me peace and safety, which is of incredible value
Thank you for sharing this part of yourself. I absolutely loved your stunning view and the beautiful quote. I am actually going to write this quote down as it really speaks to my soul. Take care and have a beautiful week ❤
Thank you!☺️ It’s one of my fav little quotes so I’m so glad you resonated with it too!🫶 Wishing you all the best and have a great week too!✨
I have had a me, myself and I weekend...blooming marvellous 😊
Sounds blooming marvellous!☺️ Thank you for watching!✨🫶
Lovely video Holly. Wow those bagels! I love in the city, so it's very hard to disconnect with all the hullabaloo outside. I'm looking forward to summer and getting outside of London for days out. I love living alone. I'm 62 and been living alone for over 10yrs now. After a 35 yr relationship I can honestly say it's the best I've felt forever! The independence, freedom to do as you please. Priceless. My grown up son and daughter are my besties! I feel so grateful 🙏❤
Thank you very much! They were very delicious😋 Summer is on its way to us now and we are over the worst of winter so not long to go!🌞 Sounds like you are reaping the meant benefits of time in solitude too and I loved hearing your experiences here! I couldn’t agree more with everything you’ve said🥰 Thank you for watching!☺️
I don't live far from Parwich. How lucky are we to have this beautiful countryside on our doorstep.
It’s so beautiful☺️ we certainly are so lucky to live somewhere so peaceful!⛰️✨
Another beautiful video, my favourite UA-cam channel ❤
Wow thank you so much!🥹 So glad you enjoyed this! I appreciate you being here🫶✨
All looks so lovely!!!...Thank you for sharing!!!xxx
Thank you for watching so glad you enjoyed this☺️✨
Incredible video Holly. Disconnecting and reconnecting is a very good for one’s soul. It’s amazing how you also took your frustration on the bagel dough💪🏼. Loved your facial expression punching the dough. Seriously, the bagel sandwich looked amazing delicious. Will follow your advice of disconnecting my life and reconnecting unplanned and see how my life comes together. Thank you for sharing. Bless you Holly🙏.
Haha I was really getting into the punches for sure!🤣👊 But thank you Dave really glad you enjoyed this and found these little tips helpful!🫶 Wishing you the best and thank you for watching!✨

Beautifu view and vlog thanks you so much for sharing with us 🌅💞
Thank you for watching! So glad you enjoyed this one☺️🫶
I find you very inspiring. Thank you
Thank you very much! Appreciate your kind words☺️✨
Amazing video, Holly! Great vibe! Fantastic bagels! You know, I had no idea that you should boil them first and then bake them. The boiling step surprised me. So I definitely learned new things today! Have a nice day! Greetings to the UK!
Thank you Harry! For sure! It takes a lot of people by surprise but helps them to expand and become chewy!😋 Really glad you enjoyed this! Greetings to you too☺️✨
@@lagomholly Thanks you so much! Yes, they look great!
super guapo¡¡ I really liked the video and good music chosen , u are right present moment where really life is . hello from Spain !!
Thank you very much!☺️ So glad you enjoyed this, you’re absolutely right!✨ Greetings to España!🫶
Beautifull all the way ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much!🫶✨
I'm so impressed you made bagels!! You had to boil them before baking? I love your refreshing and revitalizing outlook on life! 😊 Sue
Thank you sue!☺️ Yeah they require a little poaching prior to baking which enabled them to expand and hold their shape when in the oven!😋 I’m just writing up the recipe and will add it to the description shortly!🥯🫶
you made me smile thank you
That’s so lovely to hear! Really glad you enjoyed this one☺️✨
Love the message about rest Holly :-) I agree rest is so important. Going with the (good) flow is good, to let go is better than trying to control everything and hold onto everything, which only leads to frustration. The bagels look delicious too :-)
Thank you for watching! I totally agree, a little spontaneity is so freeing and brings about some pleasant surprises from time to time☺️ So glad you enjoyed!✨
@lagomholly All good Holly :-) yes a little spontaneity is great! Thank you for the amazing content as usual :-)
Starting this wonderful morning with another video 🤍, thank you for this, hope you’re having a great weekend.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed this one! Hope you have a great rest of your day!☺️✨
@@lagomholly thank you! 😊
Lovely comforting vlog and tips, thank you! ♥
Thank you so much!☺️🫶
Wowwwwww you did enjoy punching that dough there Holly lol. Your face was an absolute picture of enjoyment as you tasted that yummy looking bagel, mmmmmm making me feel hungry now haha. Great video as always Holly, loved it. Take care now and keep smiling 😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you Andy! It was a very good little stress relief for sure🤣 They were very delicious and worth the elbow grease!😋 Hope you have a great day too and thanks for watching!☺️✨
Good job on a quiet day on this video
Thank you very much!☺️✨
❤❤❤
You know it’s kind of Pinteresty , yet enjoyable. I live in an area that is solated~ turns out it’s where all the old people come to die. I’m looking to escape
Thank you!☺️ I suppose it is the perfect little spot to spend the latter half of your life - I know I would want to do exactly the same!⛰️✨
@@lagomholly This isolated area is not necessarily peaceful because if you look at some of the people you will understand that there’s something really wrong in this region because physically there’s something that happens to some people that’s kind of creepy, I am a nurse but I don’t know what the disease is but I don’t want it. Another thing is you check out the animals in the area, they are unhappy, the dogs are bored, sad they act like like you’re an angel from heaven whenever you walk down the street. I would rather live in a house full of love with my family and a ton of great grand children tugging at my skirts wanting a cookie.
Food looks lovely😋 bet it tastes amazing ❤
Thank you so much, they were delicious!😋🥯✨
Do you happen to have a video sharing how you make the different breads you make? I would love to start doing this myself and they always look so good.
Thank you very much!☺️ I was thinking of maybe making some sort of guide you could download with steps to follow🤷♀️ Would be able to put together all my recipes and some tips and tricks! Let me know if you think it would be useful😃
@@lagomholly I think that is a great idea.
love this - great pacing, shots, and message! coincidentally, I’m currently filming a video on a similar concept. great minds think alike.
Thank you Shawn, really glad you enjoyed this!😃 Oh! How coincidental, sounds exciting!😆 I look forward to watching!!☺️
Looks like you walk near me, im about an hour south. Should have a meetup and walk one weekend. Or maybe not that makes me sound like a weirdo.
A very small world indeed!😃 No not at all, would always be nice to say hello if you were passing by! Thanks for watching this☺️✨
I truly enjoyed a quiet day. 👍🤙
Ending my day with this cozy video.
🌤️🌤️🌤️ your voice is like a sweetest thing I have heard ♥️
I really want tips on how to actually slow down who has constant anxiety
Thank you! Really glad you enjoyed this☺️ From my experience the most helpful thing no matter where I am is just getting outside in the fresh air for a few breaths of air! Sometimes when we’re all locked inside things can get overwhelming but a moment of fresh air and deep breaths really help to calm the mind and have always worked wonders for me🙂 Wishing you the best🫶
@@lagomholly thank you for taking time to reply 🙏🏻 thanks for the tips
