I feel like with planners they aren’t needed unless you are a student. Otherwise a phone is fine

I also have a minimal wardrobe for my son. There is also swim stuff and sports gear. I dont have Sunday clothes, because he hated them. So he just wears a clean set on Sunday ;)

Forget about the latest phone, it's the phone boxes I need to throw out! And omg, as a crafter, I find it so hard to throw away those neat little sturdy boxes because "they will be useful for something in the future" I need help.

FWIW the first quote is Seneca

I just want a house with a bed in the living room I do not care anymore

Thanks for sharing Amanda! I’ve been in this process for a time… I also tried dumb phones and it did not work. Now I am in the same journey of turning my iPhone into a more or less dumb phone…

I need planners to map out my day and for motivation. I’m glad most people don’t.

Make up doesn't expire, if you fell for that you're not sensible.

Oh my! The prices of natural make-up. I'd have to save for a couple of months for one item. That's way too expensive for me. I'll stick to drugstore stuff. But I do want to have a small collection as I have a habit of over buying stuff.

Will you share some safer alternatives to scented candles? These bring me comfort but I don’t want to hurt myself or my pets

I'm a little bit of a collector/avid user of different bags, but other than that, I 100% agree with you. We are so programmed to think we "need" all of these extra things, but it's simply not true! And personally, I've found such a freedom in decluttering and owning less. It was a weird feeling to realize this reality for me, but I highly recommend it to everyone. Baby steps, and see how it feels. You might surprise yourself! 🤍

All screens....my computer is my weakness. Thanks for the video...some great ideas.

The kindle was a life saver for me. I only purchase physical books if i loved the book after reading it, or if I want to give it as a gift

Im guilty of having planner I dont use

1. I do have moderate amount of containers but I really enjoy them 2. planners - my laptop works like this 3. no kids for me haha 4. the newest tech - no no, I'm too poor for that 5. trendy clothing - no way, comfy goes first 6. I don't own a purse at all haha, I mean there is one somewhere at my boyfriend's parent house but it's far away XD 7. I know 8. again 9. I don't read, just listen 10. no space for more than 8 mugs at my less then 400 sq ft flat 11. yup, I don''t exercise. I walk and clean all the time :D 12. yeah it doesn't even work like that in my country 13. I never understood that since finishing school (I still have pens and highlighters from school times) 14. I like discounted food 15. sure I do have a few but use them for daily activities 16. I'm afraid of fire! 17. If I buy a duplicate it goes to my out of use storage 18. yeah, only ones that I know I use 19. yeah I don't buy furniture at all, I rent fully furnished place 20. but I like food haha Guess I'm a minimalist then! :)

May I ask you how you turned your screen totally black without that transparant blocks in your app library? I don’t know how to call them. Greetings from the Netherlands

We are reading “The Opt Out Family” right now. Eye opening how they create all this to be addicting and how it’s changing the way our children’s brains are developing.

Very nice ideas!

Great list! I would add bath/shower products; those can really start to accumulate. Figure out which ones you really like and stick to those.

I have a planner but I also use it as a journal. 😊

I love that your videos are so short and still full of inspiration’ sometimes i dont have time or energy for a 20+ min video. So your videos are perfect for a little snack of minimalism!

Loved the video 😍

Nice home 🙌🏼 Can you let me know where you got the upstairs’ gate? I am looking for one like this 😊 thank you

i haven't shopped at a regular clothing store for years, since i can find pretty much everything at thrift stores. i get underwear, bras and socks online to save time on roaming around stores; mostly bc i'm very shy and don't want staff asking me if i need help, but i also don't like to be stared at or questioned while looking at bras since i often get mistaken for a boy DESPITE having C cups...😂😅

Loved this video ❤ thank you!

Where did you find that bag? 😊

Just found your channel, love it! ♥️

I get my sunglasses from the dollar tree. I don't take care of them well enough to get expensive ones. They always break although I leave them in my car. Somehow my children get a hold of them.

I do the same with the sheets

😊

Great twist on a minimalism video!

This helpful for me.

Planners, books and loyalty cards can be used and stored digitally and it's been a while since I stopped using them physically.

Such a beautiful and calming video! Tiffany Phlanx's Marketing Specialist

I've watch several videos now about this subject and I must say your's has been the smartest. You've kept what you can use to better your life and removed the distraction. I am proud for you...

Oh my gosh, the store rewards cards!! I just cancelled 3 of them. I buy ywo oairs of shoes from this store. Its been years since i was there. I get a $5 AFTER I purchased the shoes. The "reward" jas a 3 month expiration date. I am not going in to the store to spend $50 ⬆️ to save $5!!! Enough already. Other stores do similar sales and i haven't been in there in months... Key is: i cant stand the constant email bombardment to spend spend spend. I canceled the 3 most annoying....oneards and upwards .....

I’m resonating with your talk about finding everything boring. I’ve always found contentment and beauty in the small things of life… but I still struggle with finding hobbies that being real interest

Why would I give a fish mouth a nickel for taxes if I was financially secure? I'm glad I have good insurance, especially since I had heart surgery in February!

The one thing I regret getting into is collections (i.e. mugs, coins, etc....) what a waste of money and time for me.

This completely resonated with me, I love living a 'boring' life it's the smallest most seemingly insignificant everyday moments that are really the most beautiful and important things in life ❤️

such a beautiful and calming video! glad I realized early on that I prefer to live a simple life with a lot of freedom✨

great video! I made a similar one and I realized it's totally crazy how much money we can save just by prioritizing ✨

Great video and informative 👍

I keep a physical library because the experience of reading a book is essential for me. It's a kind of self reliance as well.

Hi, enjoyed your list, thanks!

I’ve slowly over time began detaching myself from most of these plus more. But my main problem is books. I spend a ton of money on brand new or used books and it’s very expensive. I’m spending too much for one thing, but I’m also not able to read them as fast as I’m buying them. I always say I’m gonna stop but then I see something else I want. I struggle with it really bad. I’ve slowly been reminding myself I don’t need to have it if I’m not even going to be reading it right now anyways, kind of like what you were saying earlier. I’d love to be a library girl but I love having my own books that are mine. I love reading but I love collecting them too

I just purchased a situp bench because I remember enjoying using it at my college gym. I've been using it every day because I wanted to do more situps but find them very uncomfortable on the floor. And I don't have any other workout equipment at home.

I usually wait until trends have ended up at the thrift store. Then I'm not so upset at myself if I don't end up liking it. It can just go back to the thrift store. So true about books I haven't read yet and am not currently reading (I start feeling guilty for not reading them!) and planners that apparently work for other people but not me.

I love scented candles and I use them from autumn to spring. However,I stopped buying low quality ones and I made it my mission to find the candles that make my whole house smell good. I now have 5 big candles (250 grams and a 400 grams one) with 5 different scents that I love and rotate depending on the season. However,I make sure that they don’t burn for more than an hour and I always open the windows after putting them out. And then my house smells like clean air with a hint of whatever the scent I lit that day. What can I say,they bring me comfort 🙂

How do you actually remove the browser from an iPhone? Mine says I can not delete safari 🤔 it can only be hidden in the App Library.
