  • Typically when we think about minimalism, we talk about things like "letting go". Just as important as what we declutter, is what we don't. Here's the 20 Best Purchases I Made This Year and why I have hung on to them.

    I think most of us would agree that we value investing into experiences like travel, quality time with loved ones and continual self growth. That being said, any other minimalists out there have a few physical items they get a lot of value from on the day to day? 🌿

      I wear my black Travis Mathew Cloud hoodie 24/7. Sleep in it, work from home, do errands. Wash it once a week when it starts to get funky. Same goes for my Travis Mathew custom
      SD Gulls Skyscraper backpack. Goes with me everywhere!

    I own the Berkey too and I absolutely LOVE it! I have the fluoride filter attachment (which is a MUST) and the stainless steel spout and removed the rubber seal on the bottom so it has a 100% stainless steel look to it now. I would like to get some kind of wooden stand for it like maybe a plant stand from Etsy so it doesn’t take up my tiny kitchen counter space that I have. Also, another thing I like about the Berkey compared to reverse osmosis is that it doesn’t remove the minerals! So you still get the essential, naturally occurring minerals from water like calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium. 😊

    • @MichelleNovalee
      @MichelleNovalee Před rokem +1

      I will say though, that our water is lacking the magnesium it used to have so adding trace mineral drops is a good idea since most of us are seriously deficient in magnesium. I should get some myself! I try to bath with magnesium bath crystals (really hard to find) almost daily. Getting it topically and especially through the feet has the highest absorption rate.

    I relate to a lot of what you say Madi. We are grateful for what we have and the life we live but most of all I realise how quickly anything can consume us and remove us from the things that really matter. I like what you said - extreme in any direction, like extreme minimalism is not the key. It's being wise with what you have and need. Declutter definitely frees one of the burden of managing all the stuff. A simple basic life with minimal stuff is how I like to live

    I've been loving your videos! Thanks for this great list. Definitely going to read your book suggestions!
    I was also drawn to your nonstick skillet suggestion, so I checked it out. The description says it has a PTFE marble coating. PTFE (or Teflon which is a brand name) is what typical nonstick pans are coated with. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news 🥺 I worked in the plastic industry for several years, and after leaving I discovered how toxic plastics are. It's super frustrating when companies are dishonest (or maybe ignorant?) about their products. But please keep the videos coming!

    • @stephanieheadley1272
      @stephanieheadley1272 Před 2 lety

      Although now I read that PFOA (I've never heard of that before!) is the toxic part of PTFE, and it's almost always removed from the PTFE used in today's products. In that case the coating is supposedly safe, so maybe your pan is actually non-toxic! Marketing can be so confusing!

    Good afternoon , i live in south of France , i like watching channels like this , i'm minimalist in order to be on retirement as soon as possible , here is a testimonial to start this year right off :
    In december 2022 , i will be 40 years old and have closed the reimbursement of my apartment purchased in january 2014 , thanks to my savings on transport-food-accomodation, 12 years money earn back , it is on the same residence where i lived child , back to the future !
    Next year , i will invest in real estates to get more money for retirement and protect from inflation , i hope you'll reach your goal for your fire , have a nice day ! 👍
