How to live a peaceful and gentle life - slow living in the English countryside.
Life is becoming more hectic and difficult each day, so now it's more important than ever to find little moments and activities which bring us joy and calm. These are some of my suggestions for how to live in a more cozy and gentle way.

NETTLE HAIR RINSE
Pick about 8-10 nettle tops or whole stems, wash thoroughly. Boil 1L of filtered water and pour over your nettle in a big bowl. Cover and leave to cool, then put in the fridge and infuse for 24 hours or overnight. The water will turn deep greenish brown colour. Pour into a spray bottle or a jar using a sieve.
Wash your hair the way you usually do, and then either pour the nettle rinse over your hair whilst in the shower, or spray generously on the entire length. Massage the scalp. Don't rinse out.
I am not sure how this rinse would work on lighter hair, so I suggest testing it out before you commit! Also, patch test on your hand before use, to make sure it doesn't cause any irritation.

Spending a day alone in a wildlife refuge or state/national park identifying birds butterflies, other insects, animals and plants with keyed nature identification books. I have done this monthly with a amateur naturalist group and loved the interaction, challenge and friendship while trying to identify a much as we could depending on our interests, ending up with group dining at a local eatery. Lots of fun and camaraderie. Thanks for your beautiful and thoughtful videos.💚😊 Love your kitty, similar in color and habits of ours who is also fixated on what goes on outside

I wish there was a forest like that where I am living. I had tears when I saw those big trees, yearning for something I don't remember anymore. Like a mother's hug, unconditional and full of love. ❤I wish I could live in a place like that forever. Those trees make me feel more at home than the place I call home now.

Beautiful and relaxing. Thank you. I always try to do everything I can the simple and traditional way, e.g., I use a manual coffee grinder as well; as well as hand tools (not power tools); foraging, gardening, and cooking with organic whole foods; and reading real books and not just reading from screens. It makes all the difference. One of my favorite ways to relax is watching your beautiful videos. 💖🥀🌻🌳🌲 Peace be with you friend. 🕊

Next week we're going to the sea for a week, i love to look for shells and stones and hear the sound of the sea. That really calms me down. Just a little vacation and do what you want to do. I feel so priviliged and grateful we're able to do that! Lots of love 🧡

Yesss being responsible and respectful is so important! Though nettle here grows in such abundance that nobody would really frown if you pick a lot… But I still tried to be respectful even to such a ferocious plant, especially seeing how ladybugs found a comfy bed in its leaves. 😄

Another wonderful relaxing vlog - your vlog is the cherry on the cake at the beginning of the weekend. I find doing crafts relaxing - e.g. diamond painting, crochet, 3D and 2D jigsaw puzzles - usually, I get them seasonally-themed-some I use as decor at the end and take pride in what I did. Bird watching, nature, seaside, and countryside walks are also relaxing, I find I feel alive amongst nature. I'm so glad you do these vlogs. Thank you.

@@IamDaria (Very late answer, due to frequent migraine attackas lately) Hello Daria! I use my junk journal for different things like: what books I've read (22 books so far in 2024), sometimes affirmations using stickers & other paper embellishments, gluing in old photos from when I was abroad for 5 yrs in the 80's, if I've done a stationary haul, etc. Anything at all I'd like to document.Some of the journals I've made myself from scratch, one was gifted and I bought one. I use a lot of torn out old papers pages to decorate, and sometimes stamps. It's a lot of fun and very therapeutic! I've always liked to write. Hope you're doing well!

Ooh what!

But then I got used to it again I guess 😆

A different genre, but another book if you haven't read it, The Moon Spinners - Mary Stewart, is set in Greece, and her descriptions of scenery are lovely. Plants and practical use make chemistry and biology far more interesting...the herbology aesthetic shall get me through exams, perhaps!

@SeymourClevage
@SeymourClevage 9 дней назад
Not sure of your situation in life but your comment and the fact that no one had replied to it stood out to me. My advice is without money to spend time with your child in the countryside, learn about foraging. Children can make your life busy, take time out, leave a child with relatives if possible for an hour or two, walk by yourself in the countryside, take time to sit and appreciate the countryside that you are in, listen to the sounds while thinking about the things you love in life, relatives, your child. Dispose of friends that fill your life with problems. When your child goes to school and you are able to work choose a job local to your home where you don't have to spend time and money travelling. If possible, try volunteering at a farm where you can work with animals, this can often lead to a paid job. Change your mind about having things in your life, new iPad, new TV, the latest fashion, all these things are not necessary to make us happy and the pursuit of these things can make us sad. Religion is not for me but I have experienced many people who feel a calming effect from it. Just start with small things that you can afford and do for free and the ideas may grow. I hope you find seeking.
