This is why I always find myself staring at the sunset in the green field and just thinking how magnificent God created nature. The only way to truely live is to live in the present and be present, take each breath, each walk, each sip, each meal with the most sincere and you will feel gratitude and abundance.
I have been practicing slow life for months, and this completely resonates with other parts of me: my pure love for nature, my deep desire to embrace silence, my anxiety when i am around the things that dont vibe with my soul… And today, having a bad night, i came across this video and somehow helped me to reconect with my truth and life. You were like a brother in the way. Thank you so much❤! Sometimes its so difficult to keep this lifestyle when everybody around is so contrary to it and still believe that success is elsewhere while they rush everything.
Beautiful scenery with your beautiful thoughts. We can't waste time thinking we will finally be happy when "X" happens, we can create happiness here and now. We don't have to go looking for it!
Ich genieße die Ruhe um mich herum und ich erfreue mich an den kleinen Dingen des Lebens. Konsumdenken habe ich abgelegt. Demnächst beziehe ich eine kleinere Wohnung. Meinen Bekanntenkreis habe ich aussortiert. Es ist ein neuer Anfang mit vielen bisher ungenutzten Möglichkeiten. Darauf freue ich mich. Wer sein Leben entschleunigt gewinnt unglaublich viel. Für dich: Du bist so ein positiver Mensch. Deine Videos inspirieren mich immer wieder. Schön das es dich gibt 😄
Ahh, I crave slow living after my episode of burnout with my 9-5 job, it was a slap in my face. I wish I could just quit but I have financial responsibilities towards my family as well. It's also the realization to pursue something outside of work, nourishing my soul and working on my purpose. Hoping to realize my dreams soon.🤞
I learned this much later in life. I'm 67 but I am 20 in my mind. I am not at the end of my life but at the beginning of living a life of amazing adventure and deep meaning. My wife and I are building a cabin in the mountains 750 miles from where we have lived for 45 years. The children are grown and doing really well so there is a sense of relief and joy in seeing that! The time for us as a couple is now. We are living a life of adventure and purpose. The only clock is the sun. The only deadline is dying and we have decided that no matter if we die we have lived an amazing life together and dying can not take that from us. Each day is a gift and we live it to the fullest. I live as if I will live for centuries. So much to do and accomplish still. I can rest when I'm gone. Eternity is a long time. The here and now is what matters. Don't waste any of it.
Congratulations sir! I want to recommend you a book which is in reality God's word. Close to our nature. Book is (Qur'an) available in english translation on internet. You should start reading it your life will become more purposeful and beautiful I can guarantee it. Guidance of God is most important for us humans. You should try once you will feel the difference.
@atiffarooqui5925 I'm sure it's an amazing book. Currently recovering from being a Catholic so not interested in any religious relationship at the moment. Tao te Ching is speaking to me along with Stoicism. They have both been a source of great spiritual healing. But that's just me. We each need to find our own truths
@@timcisneros1351 @timcisneros1351 Im an hindu and doesn't believe in an religion or books that are written by man to keep the masses in control for centuries. Of course their moral values are useful to live a good life, but at the same time they condition to certain fairytale beliefs. If you really need to find the truth, start doing meditation practices and watch J.Krishnamoorthi videos with ignorance. JK digs the subconscious mind and breaks the shackles of conditioning. Truth is beyond language and books.

Slow living...l now see the "Wonder" . Get rid of inner conflicts...go in and met your shadow. Cause what we don't know about ourselves does hurt us badly. Then....an acceptance and nurture of self happens. A solitude needed (Wintering) and then the return. I don't aim for happiness, l breath and enjoy (inner meeting of that moment) the wonder of simplicity.
Yet I feel empty, tired, and a bit fed up about my life. until I realize what's really makes me unhappy is rush living. I always think about what's next or even while I'm doing something at that time I also thinking about anything. I really tired of it. and now I found a word 'the art of slow living' I try to know about it. after all, now I feel relieve and more gratitude about this life. no more rush living, just slow down. and also slow down makes me more patient. thank you :)
Wonderful ❤️ Remember that happiness and inner peace is not in the future even though the mind might say so. It's already here if you just let yourself see it😊
I've just found you on UA-cam, you have a new follower from Durban, South Africa. You speak my language my brother. Keep going on this beautiful channel.
“Service over self”. “Balance and compassion”. You nailed it Seve. I appreciate and honor the path that you’re on. Continue to grow inside and out. And enjoy the journey! ❤
The value of time. Today over an hour in the park amongst the greenery , listening to the birds, witnessing van life in real life all while consuming a raw vegan lunch what a priceless moment. Moments lived for entirely
Really enjoy your channel and the raw authenticity of it. Thank you for sharing all the experience and keeping the channel for all of us real. All the best to you :)
Your thoughts and arguments are so beautiful!!! I think and feel the same. I am happy, that there a more people in this world, who think so and lead such a life which you talk about. 😊
We are the same age. Next month 48 and definitely about slowing down. It’s not too late we are on time. We are becoming in tuned and aware, what once was a drive no longer is and to savor the simple moments. I am making small changes.
Probably generally it is like that but I know some adhd introverts and also very mindful extroverts who know how to slow down so I guess it's not always so black and white 😄 i think it's also a skill you can learn through practice but some just have the starting point more ahead due to personality
@@SunnyKindJourneyADHD and autism have the same root cause yet in terms of appearance are pretty much the opposite. A compbination of both also does exist. To me it seems that both amplify ones character/personality for good or bad.
Hi... I discovered your channel just right now. And I say I apologize because I don't speak English, but thank you for your video and for sharing your experience. Actually is really important to look inside ourselves and recognize who we are. I think that we need to live with purpose and peace... And the silence and the nature bring contentment. I live in a country with a lot of social inequality and poverty. There is a lot of exploration here. really getting attached only to the material side of things creates unhappiness. So, I think that happiness is empty when we live in a way that causes suffering to those close to us. So, living well is also looking at the world
So glad you found me and glad to hear my thoughts resonate with you as well. Wishing you all the best in your journey and remember to stay true to your own values ❤

How to find people with the same values, if even my relatives are trapped in consumerism? How to find peace and patience and understanding of their values to have a positive impact from meeting with them?
I have found people online and offline by just exposing myself to different communities and then being 100% me with my values. That way I attracted the right people toward me. Regarding the peace and patience, I always try to think that if they knew what you know, they would probably be living the same. But since they probably don't know about the benefits of all these things, they don't live like that. It's mainly about acceptance, leading by example and then education if you get the chance. Very overly simplified answer but hope it was at least a bit helpful
Hurrying at life’s modern pace can be exhilarating and can bring moments of great happiness but it doesn’t seem to bring the greater gift of contentment .
I have just started the job I always wanted. Now 5 months into it and I have found myself not fully enjoying it, the 80 hour + weeks are killing and I find I have no time for anything else. Maybe going back to a 40 hour a week job and getting my evenings n weekends back is a better option? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. 🙏
I suggest to try out different things and experiment, that's what I do all the time. And I don't mean just jobs but lifestyles, rhythms, habits, etc. They all contribute to the overall well being a lot. Some people work a lot but feel peaceful because they can relax easily. Some people are unemployed but still tired all the time. So experiment and find out what works for you! 😊
Think of when you were a kid. What did you like and dream of? What is socially acceptable (or even smart) may not be what makes one happy. And I am not saying you should become anti social or anything...just going off the beaten path is what I mean. Status is what ruins a lot for people yet almost everybody desires and strives for a certain status. Status requires other people to be around...so why not imaginairy ditch the people around you and go after that dream 😊
100%! I can see so many socially acceptable behaviors in my culture that just create more harm than good. That's why self-reflection is so important! Great comment 🤗
Genuine and wise as always! Seve, have you ever felt peer pressure or family expectations affect your choice of career and pace of living? I'm an Asian living slow for 3 years and still find it challenging 😂
Thank you! Yes, I have of course. I think it's quite normal when you are going one direction and the society another. But I don't consider myself anymore too different from my circle. It has been shaping to be more full of like-minded people 😊
No need, do what works for you. I may speak slowly to some but too fast for some. Also some people want the vibes and some only the information. Just make sure you don't get overstimulate trying to get tips to slow down life 😄
@@SunnyKindJourney your speaking cadence is fine ... especially for the topic at hand. i just had all the things looming over my head, the evening chores and such, but wanted to get in more info about doing less! it's exactly what you said at the end of your comment, which is definitely funny, and also kind of sad!
No, that's my family's summer cottage. A big amount of Finns own a summer house away from cities. On average they cost 138k so no need to be even a millionaire to own one here 😄
Slow down, no rush 🌱😊
❤
Thanks, I liked this video❤

3:21 for me this need to have something on was caused by medication I didn’t need. Once I got off the meds I can now actually be in silence
