Hi there,
My name is Niamh and I have a BSc in Nursing Science. I make videos on simple, natural healthy living. I hope you enjoy!
Why did I think the thumbnail was not her toothbrush, but rather a miniature cupcake on a stick?
CheerioWeOh haha how cute! Must make some cupcakes now :-)
Same!!!
What's your toothpaste made of? I can't find a good recipe
I know!
HAHAHAHAHA SAME
here's a tip: NEVER make your bed as soon as you get up. If you do, the moisture remains trapped, which is the perfect environment for dust mites. Your bed needs to breath!
I agree i make my bed 2 hours after waking up , i remove all the pillows and quilt so my mattress can breathe
That is so true! And also open the bedroom windows, even in the winter for at least 10 minutes...
@@didacraze my bedroom windows are constantly open even in winter
@isa t dust mites live in the mattress foam, the sheets trap moisture being clean or not
That is the type of bulshit a person like the one who made the video would care about. People don't have enough problems.
I really understood, Keep my waist at an absolute minimum and then I realized, Oh waste! LOL! It's Friday night and I am just exhausted...
AG Me too! 😂
AG absolutely! That's the hardest thing. That's why it is nice if we go easy on ourselves. We're only human and can only do our best. X
That's what I thought also! lol
Same
Same!
She wakes up at 5:30 a.m. but I'm watching this at 5:22 a.m....
Good on ya early bird!
SAME
Cant relate
mood
Chogiwa Park she called you an early bird hahahah brave of her to assume you slept at all lol
My zero wast life:
Breakfast:
Step 1: place ice in a pot
Step 2: boil until liquid
Step 3: enjoy your ice soup!
I think you should add some water too, soup always calls for water
For truly zero waste, it should be room temperature...LOL! :)
Don't forget to garnish with some ice cube
This works for both waist and waste.
My zero waste life:
Breakfast:
Step 1: get a nice big bowl of fresh air
Step 2: stir the bowl of fresh air evenly
Step 3: grab a spoon and enjoy!
Its so nice to see that “no waste” doesnt mean crazy hippie, definetly will be implementing some of these tips on my everyday❤️
Adriana C glad to see you enjoyed the content! Good luck with the changes. It makes life so simple. X
No, just trendy wannabe minimalists that have no idea what it's like to be poor.
Michael Miller Oh yeah bc people trying to save the environment bc they have the money too is so much worse than her just buying whatever the fuck she wants to pollute with like most people poor and rich.
Who cares what it means. It’s a sustainable and productive lifestyle.
Mariah L Thank you. Some people still think like schoolchildren.
>remember to use a non-plastic straw bc lemon can damage youre teeth
Wait how does this stop the lemon from damaging your teeth??
SweetJellyPolyurethane using a straw means it doesn’t touch your teeth. Straws are a life saver when you have sensitive teeth. The liquid goes right to the back of your mouth.
I get that part of course, but she said it in a way that didnt make much sense to me lol. Like the metal would make it magically not damage your teeth
haha totally see that! thanks to the other lovely viewer who cleared it up!
yes, she said non-plastic as if the fact that it isn't plastic makes it not damaging for the teeth 😂 thought the same thing! but i get it know.
I think she said to not use a plastic one because you may have to change it from time to time and you are wasting money by doing so.
I thought she said “some flaxseed for the amigas” and got really confused for a second
Lamb Man wait she didn’t say that lmao
IM DEAD
@@bellamelendez8838 no she said omegas i believe
Hahaha made my day
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂💀
I've been getting into zero waste/ minimalism but I'd never considered electricity and other non-material resources as just as worthy of not being wasted. My mind was blown when you mentioned saving hot water so you dont have to re-boil. Thanks!
That's great Kathryn. So much waste in this world in some many ways. We can even be wasteful of our time too! That seems to be the biggest. x
right? Such a GREAT point!
Wow this is NOT my thing... But Im happy you can do this.
I just can’t get over how beautiful your house and surrounding is
Thats really kind of you to say. Thank you. x
I find simple routines very comforting. Stay strong!
Thank you so much for teaching us to live this lifestyle !!
Homestead Tessie ah thanks. A simple life is so rich eh!? X
I thought it was a cupcake so I clicked on the video I mean it’s still interesting
haha you and hundreds of thousands I think!
If ya vegan or just wanna try a new way to make oatmeal, try coconut cream, it’s delicious and very creamy, put a lil cinnamon sugar in and your set.
Thank you for a very neat and simple sum up of your morning routine!
I used to be a No. 1 hoarder, living a stressful life, always at hussle, then slowly adapted the minimalistic mindset, sold/donated about 80% of my posessions and started exercising regularly. I always cooked from scratch so that wasn't an issue for me. I finally found peace, I can relax in my clutter-free appartment. I sometimes struggle with being zero waste because you only realise the severity of the problem once you start to avoid shopping pre-packaged items and finally see the absurdity of something like individually wrapped lemons. So again, thanks for guiding us and teaching by example.
I agree with you, once you start to be law/zero waste it's really hard not to see everywhere the unnecessary plastic that everything is wrapt in. :|
Zvědavá Vopice nice to hear your healthy lifestyle :)
You are a modern day Mary Poppins! 🌝
awh thanks...I love it!!!
Imagine how happy her body would be, due to all the healthy stuff!!
Me thingking about zero waste : use the same toothbrush for the rest of life
That's my dad's way
Zaurkax14 💀
Maroxa Talks wouldnt that also make the bristles weird? i’d be so scared that there was still bleach on it
You wouldn’t need to have to. It’s not as good for the mouth.
✔ don't wash teeth at all
everything is so aesthetic and pleasing to look at. it gives me this nostalgic feeling. a really great channel! keep doing what're you doing xx
Thanks for a lovely comment to receive. Thank you for taking the time to watch and write. Have a magical day!
Your bed and bedding needs to air, fold the duvet or covers back for the day. Pull together last thing.
Yeah most mornings i make my bed after i shower.
Dust mites are little vacuum cleaners that feed on our shedding skin cells, which is great. But they thrive in warm, slightly moist blankets, pillows, etc. So it is good to pull back your covers. If you are allergic to dust mites (& their um .. poo) making your bed as soon as you get out of it is a big no, no. If you experience sneezing or a runny nose either when you Go to bed or get up in the morning, or laundry day, you might have an allergy.
So that’s why my bed is dust free, because everything is thrown apart lol
When Indian practiced this we were called *backward* great following backward culture!👍😊😊
Sanzz TV haha backwards all the way so!! 🤗
It's all coming back from where it was originated🤷💖
We are buried in plastic now and they are using reusable items
Backwards and kanjoos too.
Seriously this feel like totally typical Indian routine..
It’s 9:12pm and I have no idea how I got here but this video is sooooo satisfying so simplistic I wanna go waste free too 👍🏾thanks for the inspiration
Aisha Prince yippee! Delighted you found the channel!! Chat anytime to me. X
Awesome! Welcome to the movement!
There's a few things I take with me when I go out, but for me the most important is an empty mason jar and extra totes. A mason jar can be for takeout leftovers, a drink at a cafe, or a compost container. I always take extra totes in case I find something I need, or if someone I'm with needs a bag so they don't have to use a plastic one 💖
Desi M yeah that's a good 'minimal but covers everything' bag essentials! X
Thoughtful :)
Just a tip hun. For a natural deodorant. Cut half a lemon rub ir under your arms. You wont smell for 24 hours. Ive tried them all and this is by far the best. Put the lemon in fridge and reuse each day. Tons of ppl do it and i heard in Mexico its very common for men and women to use limes or lemon as deo. Good luck. Great vids. X
I love that this is a thing in Mexico!!! I’ve been doing that for ages, always thinking I’m weird but it really works, I find lime is far superior to lemon though! If you put a tiny bit of coconut oil on after it seals it in perfectly
I’m from Mexico and I can confirm this 😎
Will it makes ur armpit sticky? I wan to try it
please dont do that. lemon is acidic and ur putting it into ur pores
i had no idea. i have a lemon tree. i will do it.
Some people might think she’s over doing it but my god is she a perfect example of what all of mankind should be doing in the next 12 years. Keep doing you ❤️❤️
thanks for your really kind comment!
"And that's it. I just made my bed, showered, brushed my teeth, made two hot drinks, and cooked two hot meals." Yeah, that's it. 😂
Thank god we have ppl like her to be the bigger person and try to restore the planet. We all must look up to her if we wanna live a long happy life
very kind to say... x
when people say you’re a “vsco girl” since you use a metal straw but in reality we’re just zero-waste
I’ve been enjoying your minimalist videos and just now found out you’re Irish. How I love your country, your people and the fantastic accent. 💖💖
I'm so lucky everyone loves the Irish!
Loved this! More like it pls! I am eons away from you in reducing waste, but one thing I've done recently is to place a rag near my kitchen sink to wipe sink/counter down after washing. I used to use paper towels to clean that area.
Hau Pia every little counts! The little things that seem insignificant add up. Nice job! 👍😀
Honestly one of the best eco-friendly video I’ve seen! 😊
Very inspiring! I always make my own food/drinks for me and my family, so much better than buying pre-maid food
Hope Kitten ah yes it is! Takes a bit more time to make but it's worth it. X
I just wanted to comment that this video is a breath of fresh air. Most videos like this have an annoying, soft, calculated voice over. Always kind of condescending. This video is cheery and energetic, I just love it.
haha thanks so much... I love being cheery and energetic... and remember it takes one to know one! have a great happy day x
Here is a tip if you are a kid tween or a teen
If your parents are like mine and want you to eat junk food all the time and don't like minimalism just tell them to give you twenty to thirty dollars per month if you do something and they will probably and buy your own food and stuff and then you will live the life you want
great advice!! you are wise. x
Are you dumb? No parent wants their kid to eat junk food. They just don’t want their children to miss out on key food components by dieting. Many parents are worried that by their kids going vegan or glucose or lacto free. But that is not junk food.
@@Mara-wy1bd I don't think you have an understanding of what parents are really like lol. There are a lot of parents who don't have a good understanding of nutrition or are just not interested in it themselves and just eat processed food.
Mara I know plenty of parents who encourage their kids to eat junk food because they’re poorly educated on nutrition. Hell, I was the “weirdo” in my family when I started gaining weight as a teen and wanted to adopt a healthier diet. I could only do so when I moved out at 18. Millions of kids have this issue.
@@Mara-wy1bd glucose-free? 😂
keeping the hot water in the flask is genious, I will do that from now on , thank you for all of your lovely videos 🌷🌷😘
I feel so motivated and inspired now!💕
ah brilliant! it will be infectious for everyone around you!
Same! This video was so motivating!
Your channel is a gem I’m so thankful I found this!!
Ah thanks! So glad you found too!
i felt i was in a fairyland (just like your name says) while i was watching this. loved it 💛💛
Bella Bon ah isn't that lovely! There are a lot of fairies living here! X
@@FairylandCottage and Bella Bon. This so nice. All through my life (now 66) I've tried to live like this - not always perfect with the no waste but always lived in a small, tidy home. Not always fairytale but found a prince charming after a rough 1st time around.Always always loved fairy tales, Celtic cottages, Celtic anything. Sorry so long just wanted to say I love everything about this and so happy to have found the internet to find kindred folk.
PS I'm in Pennsylvania USA
Thank you for the very informative and professionally styled video. I've also use homemade deodorant, skin oil and toothpaste in the morning - using recipes inspired by your channel. As requested here are some my tips for being less wasteful: A good way to save water is to turn the shower off while you wash and then only turn it on again for rinsing. Overnight oats in an old jam jar works well as a quick packed lunch when you are running late.
Elmarie van der Merwe ah nice! Well done for making your own products. Are you happy with how they turning out and work?
I must do the overnight oats! I got through phases of always during it and then forget about it. Oats are so handy on the go.
Thanks for the shower tip! X
Fairyland Cottage, I personally feel that my baking powder based deodorant works much better at reducing the stink-factor than commercial products. :) Everyone is different, and it is necessary to experiment. My dentist has commented on how clean my teeth were during my last visit, at which stage I've diy-ing toothpaste for about 6months. I'm intrigued by your rye flour hairwash, want to try it over the weekend. Is amazing that you can have a positive impact on the earth by posting inspiring videos!
Elmarie van der Merwe yes! Overnight oats are the best! Especially to save a bit of time.
I think I will try to start a 0 waste lifestyle going into middle school!
Oop good luck
Its gonna chew you up and spit you out
Jk kinda ❤
I recently got an insulated jug to keep the left over hot water from my kettle. I've still got a long way to go on the zero waste journey, but for some reason the hot water thing was bothering me the most.
Taking a towel to work is such a great tip. They only have paper towels at my work too (and they often run out of them!) It's so obvious - I can't believe I never thought of it before! Thanks very much for sharing your routine. 😊
It's the little things that make a huge difference.
Why does this feel like Cinderella telling her morning routine!
This is so cute! This most definitely is the same morning routine as Cinderella 💐👸🏼
Cinderella after she got her happily ever after
What an absolutely stunning, consumer conscious woman... much love from the u.s 💜
ah thanks, you are kind to say. love to you from Ireland x
I make my own liquid deodorant with lavender or sage, lemon and tea tree. Sometimes rose. I put it in a little glass spray bottle and take it with me. It’s just my preference. I don’t like pastey kinds because I always wear darker colors.
N. Nru that sounds like a lovely deodorant. Do you soak the leaves and make the spray that way?
N. Nru love to know you make this.
N. Nru would also love to know how you made this.
Hi! Loving your channel. 🖤 Here is another tip to save energy. Make overnight oats instead of boiling them. Healthy tasty saves time electricity and also no milk is needed. What else.. I stoped using deodorants completly after using home made (and sometimes a deochrystal) for some years. It took just a short while until my body regulated (just as when we quit shampoo) Now I dont sweat much and it doesnt smell much.. and I dont mind if it do actually smell a little human. Cleaning up the diet also plays its part!
You know what i do first thing in the morning
Hit snooze to 7:00
I love oatmeal for breakfast...and actually I call mine Asian oatmeal, because I have it on the non-sweet side with chia seed oil, gluten free organic tamari and, when I can, "haldi achar" or pickled turmeric. It does feel very nutritious. To reduce waste, I also use a shampoo soap bar made by a friend.
nice friend you have!
I love that you make your own tea. Thanks for sharing, I will try as well. :-)
Great idea to use a flask throughout the day..I’d never thought to do that so thanks for that. I’m definitely going to add that to my routine. X
Ally Coxon yeah just make sure it's a good one that actually keeps the water boiling hot for at least six hours! X
Fairyland Cottage Yes, we have a good flask and I’ve been using it for the last couple of days 👌🏻
Great video!! But I really want to tell you, that you need ( that’s really important) to soak your grains!! Soak the oats, chia seeds, actually all grains and seeds need to be soaked! If you do the fermentation it will be fantastic, it will be “pre digested“ for your body!
Loved this video! Beautifully filmed and inspiring for my own morning
Rebekah Crozier thank you x hope you have happy mornings to start the day x
I'm rediscovering this old video. I love your happy voice ^^
Love from France ❤️
Her: A cup of hot lemon water.
Me: 3 cups of steaming hot coffee with cream and sugar.
Это просто превосходно😍
Какой же приятный голос, красивые кадры😘 молодец❤
Thank you for your kindness to nature. I find your channel really helpfull and inspiring 🤗🤗
Making the bed is such an easy little chore and it makes the whole bedroom look so tidy! Of course, my husband pops out of bed faster than me because he figures if he flees the room he doesn’t have to help make the bed. Lol!!
haha you have a clever husband!
great video! thanks for reducing waste in our world and inspiring others. i recently learnt that we can still cause damage to our earth even if we eat vegan, buy cruelty free cosmetics, ethical clothes... switching to a zero waste lifestyle little by little. with fosters and pets im thinking there will always be some trash from my house, but i learn things i never thought could be real in the zw community so maybe one day could be zero waste with pets too! subbed! 💕💕💕
Güney Naz Yılmaz delighted to hear you liked the video and subscribed. Being in this world is wasteful so all we can do is our best and have our intentions and our actions matching. Basically we create waste just by being in this world so we can only do our best. If everyone was as conscientious as you, the world would be a better place. Xxx
Have you ever considered getting a stove top whistling kettle? We got one a while ago and though the whistle is quite noisy, it saves a lot of money on our energy bills and it also boils a lot of water quite quickly too 😊
Love your vids! Thank you for being planet conscious
Thanks! Delighted you like them .
I love this idea. Not my thing my best friend zoie is super into this lifestyle as well. But then you got me and my boyfriend who use paper plates to avoid doing dishes when we can. Although i do reuse them when i can. Im working on always bringing reusable bags to the store and shopping at farmers markets because they dont use plastic everything.
Great video! Just curious, what kind of job do you have?
Semi Veg thanks! I work part time on a vegetable farm. X
Oh, that's very cool!
This is a beautiful life!
This video is very helpful! Thank you for sharing your simple, yet, practical alternatives!😊
Sai Bella ah you're welcome! Thanks for watching! ❤️✨
I would love to see a video on which herbs you grow in your garden along with how you grow, harvest, and store them.
ah I have a video on herb drying if that helps... I dont think I have done a video on how to grow but I'm not an expert. I could do a video when the summer is in full force...
This was so soothing to watch. Love from India💕
great to hear. Thanks. love from Ireland x
Eye-opener to a better living. Thank you x
to keep my waste at an absolute mnmm 🥰
Wow I've watched tons of morning routines but this would be the most inspiring and most memorable morning routine I've enjoyed 👌🏻👌🏻
ah thats is really lovely to hear... made my day :-)
Make ur own toothpaste with what fluoride and enamel compounds
Interesting and seems easy once you get the hang of it.
Using a bucket for bathing saves a lot of water ... we don't realise how much water is wasted in a shower....
I was going to write the same about using bucket to save water and while reading comments I was wondering is it just me who realized this but then I am happy to come across your comment! ❤️
@@nationcomesfirst i know right...
we do it here... 🙂
@@reader5182 we too 🤗
I do this and then use the water either to flush the loo or on the garden
I'm amazed that people's work feeds them.
Also, I love this UA-cam channel, good on ya!
Niamh,
The vegetable curry you made in this video looks delicious. Can you post the recipe for me? I would love to try it.
Have a blessed day
Jeannie John
Ah it is delicious Jeannie,
it's just a throw together curry. I get most of my recipes from The Happy Pear... I think it is their chickpea curry... let me know if you can't find the video and I'll try get for you...
I take left overs from the family meal the night before and reheat in the microwave. Metal straws is a good idea as I did find the lemon effected my enamel. Thank you for sharing
dont you have to soak chia seeds first?
actually not, but there is suppose to be an increase in benefits when you do so go for it...
Lol just searched the comments to see if someone mentioned the chia seeds!
I just prefer mine cooked, like in with the porridge and with some quinoa, each to their own tho 💚
I usually soak my oats overnight, together with chia seeds.
I love your simplicity and discipline
Awesome thanks for sharing 👍👏
We did this all the time and we were called uneducated and uncivilized ..... So happy that people now at least know the value of what we are doing since ages .... Great work ma'am just subbed u
It terrible a country was called that when are western culture is so uncivilised ..
Anyone out there. PRIMARK have started selling Bamboo tooth brushes.. Now I only saw them in the mens department.. but admit I hadn't thought to look in women's.
So meditative to watch. My tip as a morning coffee drinker is to use a tiny 1 1/2 cup French press (Bodum brand...mine has lasted 4+ years). If any is left over, I store it in a Mason jar in the fridge for iced coffee in the summer. This way, I don't waste a whole pot of coffee ($£€ either).
nice tip... I like... I'll tell my hubby who loves coffee!
the way she said minimum at the start I’m dying
Minimum? The most similar thing I heard was mnm
Streko Rodriguez same here lmaoo I replayed it and heard her saying minimum like super fast
I’m Irish but unfortunately I live in the states. I’ve always wondered what it was like where my ancestors came from. Your accent is delightful.
Ah thanks Rebecca, you'll have to visit sometime. Ireland has its ups and downs like any country but it is truly beautiful x
ahh when I was younger my mom would make me homemade toothpaste and lotion.
I'm from Dublin & a new subscriber! Great to hear an Irish You Tuber talk about low waste. It's my aim for 2020!
Karen Lawler hi Karen! Delighted you found the channel! Lovely to have a fellow Irish lass in the journey :-)
@@FairylandCottage Hey, thanks! We need more of your kind of videos in "mainstream media" too. Everyone needs to be thinking about this stuff. BTW, your house is also beautiful...
Karen Lawler thanks! Do you see the rte series on reducing waste... was suppose to be good.
@@FairylandCottage Oh, cool. I must check that out, thanks. Merry Christmas
*I thought the thumbnail is a small cuty cupcake holds by a wooden spoon lol😆*
I wish I could discover your UA-cam channel and meet you when I was living in Dublin ! I am so happy that the zero waste movement is spreading in Ireland !
Ah yes it is small but totally here now... :-)
Why did I think that toothbrush was a cupcake?😂
Hey it recommend getting decomposing straws because metal starws are very dangerous and if were to fall on one, it would stab through the back of your mouth and into your brain
This breakfast looks so delicious :D
Her voice is so cute! And this is great!
I see these things and think is this a tutorial of "how to not enjoy life at all"?
Anyway I'm still trying to change my lifestyle to this x)
haha just do what is good for you.... if you don't enjoy it, you won't do it so make it fun for you... :-)
The energy in her voice is amazing 😍 specially for people like me who is sleepy all the time during this quarantine 😂
I thought it was a very mini cupcake in a stick in the thumbnail
ratherande 😆😂😂😂😂
I’ve been trying to limit trash I throw away thanks for this!
LpsMeghan ARMYYYYY 💜💜💜
Avoid using shower. It wastes water. Instead use a bucket.
Correct✔️
I've only seen UK and American low wasters on UA-cam so far I'm so happy to see an Irish one ❤️ that's the same as my morning routine minus the lemony business lol
Ah lovely! Ireland has great zero waste people doing their thing here!
me: i can do this
also me: i cant do this, i’ll loose instantly! im already waste!
I used to make my bed like almost as soon as I got out, but I learned that it's best to let it breath first. Let all the moisture from the night that in the mattress & all get a chance to air out before making it 💚🙂
Best routine best things best food excellent ❤🇵🇰💚 love from PAKISTAN 🇵🇰💚
haha lovely! thanks... love from Ireland to you in Pakistan
