What’s one thing you’ve stopped doing to simplify your life? 🤍
The overcomplicating everything!! I still need God's help in this area...😅 But i desire to grow in boldness and the ability to make a confident decision without overthinking!!
I don't compare my life to others, so I'm good on #7. But, I have to work on the rest. Thank you, Ashlynee!
Demanding too much from myself :)

Something I did was to stop waiting for the people around me to change in order for me to make changes. For example, I was able to simplify my life (at least mentally) by not forcing myself to stay awake until my husband wanted to go to bed, and also waking up when my body was ready to instead of trying to sleep in just because he did. I want my wind down period at 9pm but he wasn't sleeping until 11. And I wanted to get up at 5 to go to the gym but I waited so long to go because I was waiting for him to want to start going with me. When that didn't happen I started to go anyway. Not planning my day around other people made things so much better and more simple for me
Oh my goodness, that is so powerful! Thank you so much for sharing 🤍

A relationship where you give up too much of yourself is never healthy. This lesson is VERY important to learn, so thanks for sharing your experience! 💯 ❤️
This is similar to how I felt & it was so exhausting. I’m slowly setting time for myself way more than before. It feels extremely empowering & freeing! Thank you for sharing, I’m glad you were able to just do it for yourself! 🤍
Thank you for sharing this. I thought I was the only one going through this!
Hi Ashlynne, I hope you are well. I used to over-analyse every conversation and interaction I had with people. Did I offend them? Was my tone of voice wrong? Did they want or expect me to say something different? It was so pointless! I'm trying to care less about what others think now. Most of the time, they don't give you a second thought, anyway! I am also learning to laugh at myself, rather than chastise myself if I do something silly. I think getting older helps with that! Have a great weekend. 😁
As a much older viewer who’s almost 60, working 40 years I have learned not to always say yes to things. I started doing that about 20 years ago. Of course when there’s emergencies I’m right there, but last minute things that people want me to do and I’m not in the mood I say no. I have to think about my mental health. I wish CZcams was around when I was much younger I may have been a different person. Thank you for these videos and the encouragement that you give to people you are a bright spot😀
WOW! You're such a wise young woman. I am 56 years old and realized recently that you can't please everyone. I have decided that as a Christian I am going to seek his will and do what he leads me to do. And yes it is so important not to have every second of your day planned.
Thank you for sharing! Yes there is an extraordinary freedom and richness in just seeking His will and His closeness :)
@@suusan8721 Amen. Me too. His will not ours :)
How to deal with a spouse that creates clutter and/or is not a minimalist would be a great video as I can relate.
I’m so proud of how well you have done on CZcams. I’m old enough to be your mother, in fact I have a son your age so I look at you being so young and being so successful. I actually started a CZcams channel last year after thinking about it for a while. Being older I felt a little self conscious but I just decided I would just do it. It’s a small channel but it’s something I enjoy doing. My life isn’t full at all as I have an autoimmune disease. It’s actually very boring. The only thing that I feel overwhelmed with is the clutter in my home. I’m working on it slowly as I tire easily but I’m hopeful I will finish one day.❤️🙏
The "Stop trying to be perfect", "Stop pleasing people" and "Stop comparing yourself to others" is the three that I'm also dealing with on a daily basis, so I could definitely resonate with that! It's a daily journey and something I'm still working on! Thank you for this video!
So cool that you did your own video on this topic Ashlynne, I love all the points you mentioned! Thanks for the shootout 🤗🌷
"In every situation with prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God. And the peace that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6 Only Jesus is the true spiritual path. New age religion is a con. Peace to you.
One thing I try to remind myself is stop comparing yourself to other peoples façades… what people put on social media is always the “perfect days” and also edited pictures. Thank you for always keeping it real and giving us this reminder 💜
The saying goes, I think, "Don't compare your inside to someone else's outside." I love the two other similar sayings Ashlynne gave in this video!
Feeling like you're constantly overlooked
can make us question our worthiness
Your worth can never be determined by
someone else, People not giving you the
credit that deserve is always their loss.
You don't have to prove yourself to
anyone.
Ashlynne, you uploaded this video at the right time. This week I especially been stuggling with your first and last points brought up in this video.
I like to create daily to-do lists for after I am done with my job each day. I am always tired after I am finished with my work day, so I am not sure why I have so many to-dos. A big reason is that I don’t want to do these things on the weekend. However, my weekends get jam packed too. So I am trying to tell myself to focus on the time sensitive stuff and the other stuff will get done when they are meant to be done. I literally wrote this down for me to read every day because I feel like I am about to be burnt out. Usually my body will make me slow fown via migraine unfortunately.
Also social media and comparison is something I have stuggled a lot with as well so I am working on limiting my time on social media. Seeing the hustle culture on social media definitely does not help me and I am trying to tell myself how I do things is enough and the pace I do them is enough. All the points you bring up are all definitely a work in progress for me.
Thank you for all that you do 😊
this is such an inspirational video especially coming from someone who suffers with mental health and it's hard to do all of these things. thank you so much for these things to think about with your calming voice to listen to. I really enjoy watching your videos
I love this ❤️ I needed to hear this: progression over perfection! Thanks so much for the inspiring video 💕
thank you for this video!! I needed this and love it!! God Bless xx
I really enjoy my simple routines/ daily tasks that are easy to follow and give my night/morning somewhat of a structure despite something that may be going on
💛
Love Simple Happy Zen!!!
thanks Adhlynne - this guidance I needed. I've gone through a lot of things you were talking about. I saw Vera's video too. another one that helps is God.💜
Girl, I agree with you :) Small steps every day lead to miracles, this is what I've understood recently. ❤
I love using the plants as a background! It’s so calming!
Excellent video! Let myself crash this afternoon to reset.
Ronald Banks also has a great video about adding calmness in your life. Ty!
This video made me cry. So inspiring, thank you Ashlynne!
Like CZcams Kate Kaden says, embrace the "JOMO". Joy of missing out can be the best part of my day. Just listening to others complaining about their over-scheduled days, makes me anxious.
Excellent advice! You’re wise beyond your years.🥰
Beautiful video as always, Ashlynne!
Tips I needed to hear! Thank you! 😊
wonderful tips! thank you!
I delegated some work tasks and allowed myself more time to properly focus and give things the time they need and getting up earlier for me time!
Oh I love that!! Those make a huge difference!
Thank you 🙏 this video was amazing and really helpful ❤️
I have the Martin luther sign you said in my house look at it every day to get inspiration for the day !
I have stopped booking myself so busy and it feels great. However, as for rest, I don’t enjoy just sitting for any period of time. I like to be up doing something and being active. To sit for an hour or more makes me crazy 🤪
Ooooh that unsweetened Stok Cold Brew- my fave! A small change to simplicity, but I drink this every weekday rather than one from a coffee shop!! Made me smile to see that you like it, too🙂
Very well-said!
This is precious material. A book with a similar premise changed my entire landscape. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze
You’re a beautiful job! Happy weekend, Ashlynne!❤️❤️😊😊🌸🌸
Thanks and have a great weekend Ervin!!
You too, Ashlynne!
I too have a husband who is not a minimalist!! It’s hard. His mess drives me nuts
Super comme toujours ashlynne tes vidéos sont tops 😊😊
I started saying no to 80% of commitments and requests and favors. I'm not helpful to anyone when I'm worn thin and exhausted. Saying no helps you refocus on what's important so you can say HECK YES to the relationships and things that matter most!
Your huge plant in the background is beautiful.
Good morning Ashlynne happy Saturday morning and I loved your channel and your vlogs is amazing and you are amazing Supporter
This is really great advice!
Really enjoyed this video 🌺
Great video!
Quick question, where did you get your gold watering can? Plant connoisseur here. Love your videos and advice💗

Hi beautiful awesome work beautiful idea i like it thanks for sharing ❤💜💜❤💜💖💜💖👍👍👍👍👍👍
Try eliminating background music and playlists every so often, and build up a tolerance for silence. As I heard a toddler say with an air of discovery in the bath one night, "When you stop talking, your brain talks to you." And it can be the same with music. Silence gives birth to original thought, (Also, you may find yourself listening to music with more attention this way.)
❣❣
Thanks for this! ♥️
I have ceased contact with mean friends
Hey a simple life means a simple mind, body and spirit. Your whole life is simple then your whole body will be full of light 💡 and simple
Well, only when we give our lives to Jesus and follow Him. New age religion is a con. It cannot sustain a person, being born again in the Lord 100% does.
"And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.
The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone NOT FOUND written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire." (REVELATION 20:12-15 NKJV)
Today, while you are still alive and able, may you repent from your sins, believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that JESUS CHRIST is your Lord and Savior, so that through Him, your name will be written in the Book of Life.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever BELIEVES in Him
should not perish but have everlasting life.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." (JOHN 3:16-17 NKJV)
By God's GRACE, the gift of Salvation and Eternal Life is available to all. You can RECEIVE it. You can REJECT it. May you choose wisely.
Truth! Turning to Jesus Christ, God come in the flesh, and trusting Him as your Saviour is the only way your soul will be spiritually safe for eternity. Faith in Jesus brings a renewed life, one secure in His love and promises. His is the only life path which will bring true and lasting fulfilment, peace and joy. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16). “Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.” (Acts 3:19)
🖐🏼🙂
