The biggest epiphany I have ever had as a human being is realizing that being happy is a CHOICE. It changed me as a human being.

@zanablueivzv6047 3 года назад

Often the simplest things which feel like home are the luxuries of life, and materialistic luxuries are temporary fix. I think many of us learned this during lockdown. Walking in a sunny forest, having a moment sipping a coffee at sunrise, selfcare, having a puppy dog and loving family&friends are priceless. Totally agree that often we need to mute the noise from social media and find our happy place. ❤️👏🏼

I think the meaning of the word luxury is not understood here.

@Michelle0482 3 года назад

Living a luxurious life depends on the individual. What is hard is taking the time to really listen to yourself and find what is luxury to you, not what someone else feels is luxury. It could be as simple as taking an hour out of your busy day to do something for you or it could be buying that purse you have been wanting. The point is everyone's definition of luxury is different and should be respected.

@lydiamillen 3 года назад

Yes luxury is most definitely subjective that's why I went down the route of 'How *I* live a luxury life" rather than "How *to* live a luxury life" xxx

@@lydiamillen I appreciate your content but I do want to caution you that your video introduction does contradict with your response and your video title. On the video's 0.52 seconds you started with "I want to talk to you about how to create a luxurious life that does not cost anything." You actually did not say, "I want to talk to you about how I create....." This is just a verbiage caution based on your response to your viewer. This is not meant to stir anything. :)

I did a video very similar to this on my channel last year. Unfollowed 'friends'on facebook who i have never spoken to in years. Started journaling, curated my instagram, started drinking plenty of water. Ive just signed up to the gym today. Im feeling so much happier and in control of my life. Ive struggled with mental health issues for yeara, but doing these things has really helped me. Happiness comes from within. Yes buying luxury cars and nice handbags etc, is great but will only bring pleasure, which is external and only lasts for X amount of time. True happiness comes from within. Lydia, you have done an amazing job with video. I agree with everything you say❤

Lydia, I loved this video, thank you so much for posting it🙏🏻 I’m so grateful. I was 2 minutes into video and I was already crying. I was one of those person who felt butterflies every single day, many times par day if I am completely honest. I felt butterflies when I smell coffee in the morning, when I saw beautiful sunset… and I lost that during pandemic. I felt so lost and heartbroken. I didn’t know what was wrong with me but I didn’t won’t to get out of bed every single day. It was like part of me was missing. And it was hard. But I tried and tried and failed I still could not find the joy in my life. But after couple of months it was a little bit easier. And few day ago Little spark appear - when I was in my home chilyon the sun with my cat. And I FINALLY have my 🦋🦋🦋 back. It really is the small things in life that aren’t so small. Thank you for this video. It reminded me how important it is to feel your own cup. Sending a big hug. ❤️ And butterfly 🦋 ✨❤️

@soo6087 3 года назад

Lydia, I think anyone with any modicum of thought can see that although you love luxury, and why not I say, your eyes only really light up when you were building your garden and greenhouse, taking Porterlino for a walk and seeing all that is around you when you jog and walk. Many don’t seem to grasp that you have achieved many goals and are now in a much more affluent position, they would rather see you with nothing, it makes them feel better which is so sad. I will certainly continue to follow your vlogs and Instagram, I love all the ideas and you’ve given me such inspiration and positivity so let’s all be more kind women to women, even if we don’t agree some of us can hopefully stop overstepping the boundary of being unkind. I’m 60, retired and used to love taking my springer for a walk until I lost him, I used to watch the farmer, see the sky, watch the lambs and this gave me great happiness, what a luxury to have to be able to, and I used to slowly feel relaxed……… I know what you mean 🌹

@@soo6087 Hi! I just had to comment to say that you're a wonderful writer and I was so touched by your mention of your dog too. I've never owned one, but I'm the biggest fan of canines. They light me up whenever I come across one in real life. I've walked into many poles because of these head turners! Is it true that by owning a dog you feel an amplified sense of pleasure in every day life? Like wearing rose tinted glasses all the time? Frankly I don't want the hassle of teaching it and training it. I guess I'm not in the right chapter in my life to own one yet. I also travel a lot, so I'd hate to leave their side. I want to make sure they're trained professionally, and will be given the best life possible. I've dog sat for months before, but I wanted to check with a true owner like yourself, whether life really is la vie en rose avec le chien?💕 If so, in what small ways?

@soo6087 3 года назад

@@GildedFashion Hi Sara, that was totally unexpected thank you for the compliment x. To own a canine is something really special, it’s the unconditional love a dog gives (or any animal really) but especially a dog, they understand you, know your moods and it’s a fantastic way of getting exercise. I have lost 2 liver & white Springers, the last one Ben, who had such a gentle Soul, it was devastating. I used to come in from work after 5 hours, this is the longest I would personally leave a dog, off we went across the fields, sheer pleasure. That’s what I call a complete luxury, we were as two most of the time, it was wonderful. After losing Ben, have only just decided the possibility of having another pup but only black & white. We are considering going to US with family 2023 so it will be afterwards as I have never left my dogs in kennels, (they fret and worry as Springers) then we will travel the UK and take the bundle of joy with us like we always have before. It’s a commitment but oh so worth it ! Thanks again, and hope one day you take the plunge, you will feel very loved ❤️

@GildedFashion 3 года назад

@@soo6087 Thank you so much for taking the time to describe what it's like to be a dog owner! It is very selfless work, but they love they give you every day seems to be well worth it! Just know that every stranger who smiles at your dog are very grateful to have a spark of joy in their day too, I'm speaking from experience as an outsider. It is always a privilege when owners feel comfortable to let me pet their canine babies, it always brightens my entire day. All the best for your future puppy!

@carolinasofiavlogs 3 года назад

this was such a beautiful video lydia. probably one of my favorites from you because you just expressed how materialism is not happiness, it doesn’t fill you up the way all the little things do in your daily life. your life is what you make of it and i know that is what you were trying to say but in the simplest of words. handbags and diamond jewelry are luxuries and while they can make us gals happy, they don’t complete us and i would be just as happy without those things. you can never fill from an empty cup so showing love to yourself is the most important and rewarding thing you can ever do.

@elguelmouzizineb8763 3 года назад

I also realized that getting up early in the morning, going for a walk, being present is priceless etc ……., It is living, it is happiness and it is luxury and that the material stuff (bags, cars, jewelry etc….) it's a fleeting moment of joy that lasts a second, yes, I think that money is important and that it gives us choices and comfort, honestly, financial freedom is something that everyone needs to have, but it shouldn't be the center of our attention because it won't give us a sense of fulfilment . Thanks for bringing this important topic to your channel, it's a good reflection.

Yes Lydia, this is the luxury life I call my life . Picking my own herbs and veggies from our garden, the walks and appreciation of the surroundings, the organisation, the exercising, the ironing of bed sheets, it’s all me! One other thing I wanted to add, that I unconsciously do, that actually fills up my cup is an outdoor decking space that’s closed off with glass, fixed with a wood log fireplace for the winter time. Sit there and watch the rain pour on a freezing winters day, and enjoy the greenery and nature’s wild weather. It’s the best feeling. It brings a special joy and we feel like the luckiest people in the world having this simple appreciation for life, we never sit indoors, even guests come straight out the back!

You're completely right about the point of view you shared about materialistic items like bags or shoes. They're beautiful and lovely to own but they are exactly what they are. Items that are meant to be worn or used or appointed as rewards for reaching an important milestone in your life and not admired to a level where you lose your true self and identity and become aligned with these subjects.

@loytoco 3 года назад

Thanks for this video. We share several things that make us happy. I, too, have been blessed with living in the countryside. I don't do journaling, but I do gratitude journaling. When I wake up, while I am still in bed, I take my little gratitude journal and write down 3 things for which I am grateful and 3 goals I have for the day: the goals are general ones, not to-do lists, mostly goals of how I want to feel during the day. Then repeat some affirmations and do a quick meditation (I choose from a variety, whatever feels good for me on that day). Another thing I adore when I am feeling overwhelmed is going on the grass barefoot. I sit down and just focus on what I feel with my feet touching the ground and grass. I love it. In one of your videos you said you treat monday mornings as new beginnings, and I particularly appreciated that: I am trying to do that now, as well.

Great content, Lydia. Uplifting, warm and full of easy happy advice. Thank you.

What I find quite surprising is that everything you mentioned to be luxury in this video is a form of minimalism. Older generations had this sought of lifestyle, I find it fascinating that older generations would dream for being financially free. Yet, those who now are surrounded by materialism find luxury in the very basic nature of life and being. Great perspective 👌🏼

This is the “Lydia” content I love!! True luxury is a life well lived. Moments that fill up your soul. 🥰🥰

It’s not about ruffling feathers it’s about being influential in the right way. You talk about you all of the time when you could use your platform to support and educate others

What a great motivational, inspiring video..I totally agree with all of this. Pinterest is so amazing, dog walks, smelling the scents, lists...ahh love it all and one thing I want to thank you for is reminding me that these things are important! I've lost myself a little this past year or so being in lockdown and children in remote learning. Thank you so so much ❤️🌺❤️

Time and freedom are luxuries

I just had this same conversation with my mom this morning. It is everything my RU-vid channel is all about. I call it “Elevating the Everyday”. It is my life’s motto and I try to show how it can be done by being an example to inspire others. It doesn’t cost any money to take note of the things that fill you up. I’m glad that I am not the only one who is talking about this. For me, luxury is having peace of mind. To be at ease in my own body and in my own home and relationships. Life is hard enough to live without complicating it with toxic relationships and being uncomfortable in your own skin. It took me years to learn it but now that I have, I will protect my peace of mind always.

Something that is the biggest luxury I can give myself is going uncontactable for the entire night. My friends and family know to not expect a reply from me after half past eight at night, that I'll get back to them in the morning. (If it's an emergency, they know to call and that I'll always answer, but to only call after that time if it is an emergency). The clear headedness, the peace, and the amazing sleep that practising this gives me is incomparable!!

Well done Lydia! I have seen the changes in your love of Porter ( and Lumi) your garden, and all of your luxurious moments you spend each vlog. You do truly seem happy. I still love the unboxing moments too. You are living your best life!

@alisonpena4577 3 года назад

Hi Lydia, thanks for a lovely and inspiring video. You’ve definitely given me a lot to think about. Personally sleep is my most important luxury. But someday you will become a mother and sleep will be a fond memory. Then later peri menopause and menopause will mess with your sleep patterns again. I’m 59 and haven’t slept well since I was 45. I would give up a luxury handbag for a good nights sleep!

@carolinewebber3751 3 года назад

Really enjoyed this, thank you! LOVE fresh bedding! ‘Never regret a workout’ I’m using going to remember this and try and give more time to this, I succumb to the too busy excuse! I’m going to make a real effort with the journaling but biggest luxury ever…health, I was diagnosed with MS when I was 29 and health is just the most amazing thing ever! So every milestone or little thing I get back after relapse is like winning a medal! Gratitude and appreciation up there too! 🙏🏼 Loving this evolving Lydia! Xxx

@annmariemerlino3102 3 года назад

Lydia, this was the best video ever. I loved it because I am very, very guilty of being in a dark place and watching my bloggers just buy and buy and buy. I've struggled with that for so long. But in this video you showed a side of yourself that I really needed to see -- that you know how lucky you are, that you appreciate all that you have and that you realize that sometimes people in dark places watch your videos and it's very very hard. I'm going to try every single tip you suggested, I want to get out of the dark place and appreciate the little things and all that I have. xoxoxoxoxxo

@lydiacarels7912 3 года назад

I think this is what we can take away from the Covid period (although terrible): take nothing for granted, but be mindful of what you have and be thankful for that. Walks, cleaning my (own) house, taking time for healthy food, taking care of my health....all that! So thank you for this, it is só me! 😘

@christinesullivan3978 2 года назад

I love luxury items and love watching your videos on them, but I loved this too. I agree that it’s so important to remember that luxury can be found in many places, not just in boutiques.

@carolynmarshall1968 3 года назад

First lockdown I went for lots of walks and living by the sea in Devon I was lucky to be lockdown in such a lovely part of the country. It’s taught me to appreciate nature and being in the moment a lot more, so although it was a hard time for some I gained something positive out of it. I also journal everyday and write my grateful list as I find this helps me to record my life and something to look back on to see if my life has progressed, especially at the moment whilst going through family problems and a difficult neighbour, which is bringing me down. I wake feeling so unmotivational but as soon as I write a TO DO list it makes me get up so I can work through them to keep my mind occupied, makes me feel good crossing them off and by the end of the day I feel I’ve achieved something. love a To Do list 🙂 I always look forward to you feeds and RU-vid videos as I like to see what you have bought and how you live your life, you have inspired me so much and you bring me happiness. 🤗

Lydia, you are living proof that money doesn’t buy happiness. I have followed you for years and while I love your fashion content and have watched you grow as an influencer, listening to you talk so passionately about self care and learning to appreciate the more understated luxuries in life puts a huge smile on my face and has also helped me on my own journey. Thank you x

We here in England have a luxury most women dont have in other parts if the world, and thats the right of choice, we can choose where to live, how to dress, who to marry, what job to take, to drive, in some parts of the world this is a luxury we here often take for granted

@yvettegonzales7736 3 года назад

This video gave me so much happiness remembering how when I lost my grandmother my 18 yr old dog and my mom all In two years I was so depressed and in a dark place as well. Than COVID hit and it made is worse I did the same thing I sat and walked at my lake took up yoga and meditation and saw things through nature’s eyes it’s was breathe taking. And my soul healed and yes it’s LUXURY your a great inspiration

@hinaahmed5387 3 года назад

This completely resonates with me. I was at my lowest and similarly to you, it took me embracing and acknowledging the simple things around me. Romanticise everything. Also for anyone ruffled by this… a woman surrounded by high end/extravagant products is telling you she was at her lowest. If that doesn’t tell you that money can’t buy happiness, I don’t know what will

@amybell4536 3 года назад

Lydia, what you describe when you talk about the dog walks and taking note of the smells and what is around you, I call it awareness, being right in the present moment. It is the most exhilarating feeling, you can almost feel the energy around your body if you close your eyes and just listen and feel.

@kashmirachand2098 3 года назад

Ofcourse she got the cd jumper I mean she didn't mention it in her last blog when she did the shopping BUT ofcourse she must have got it as she's an influencer and then wants to say she has worked hard to afford it but where's the simple lydia ??u tlk about materialistic things when that's all u portray ...just saying with all respect ur luxury is high end stuff not the simple thing everyone else enjoy ...BUT in saying my opinion I can relate to the dog walk bit as that is what gives me inner peace just takes u and ur mind to a different place..I don't have hate for lydia iv seen all her vlogs and enjoy them but at times it does seem u buy luxury items to prove to the world u are living a wealthy life ...

@melissawaskey1549 3 года назад

Thank you!! I have been doing this. I quit Facebook because I have wonderful friends who are passionate, opinionated and its exhausting. I left Twitter because it's crazy. I have made my Instagram page to be dogs, cats, cupcakes, recipes and inspirational stories and posts. I quit the news. I have also been editing my closet, my kitchen and other parts of the home. To hear that you are doing similar things makes me happy. I'm not alone in the space.

@therezav2059 3 года назад

Lydia, I listened to your vlog today and was saying to myself “this is the reason why I love this woman so much!” We are from the same tribe, star, place in the cosmos, who knows… Hehe! But everything you said resonated with me. Specially the “iron your sheets” 😁 I’ve always felt unbelievably luxurious when I go into bed freshly out of the shower, clean pjs, clean and ironed white sheets and spritz of lavender in the air. There is nothing more luxurious 😄🌻 I love you and send you my gratitude for being a fabulous human and a true inspiration.

@juliepeck1596 3 года назад

Mother Gaia gives us all these beautiful memories by just being out in nature, the birds sounds, the wind in your hair, the sun shining on your face, she gives us these experiences for free, she was sending you her love. Spending time in nature allows you to go within and clear your mind and ground yourself. Much love xx

@jkoerner23 2 года назад

Lydia, thank you! I think this is one of your best videos, ever! Everything you said is so true but so easy for us to forget or take for granted. What you said about the smell of spring just lifting your mood really resonated. Today I was tired, in a mood, the weather was foul and I was sitting in my car waiting for a light to change, staring at the driving rain at a patch of trees being blown about in the wind alongside a building. Suddenly a person with a brilliant red umbrella passed between the trees and the moment was so strikingly lovely it shook me out of the dumps instantly and made me just really appreciate that small moment and that I’d got to see and appreciate it. Like you said, it filled my cup. ❤️

Ironed bedsheets feel amazing! If you haven't tried it, you need to at least once. You won't want to go back to unironed sheets.

@tasneembulbulia2248 3 года назад

I was walking my pup the other day and have been struggling to keep my spirits up as in lockdown yet again,the sun was out and I rested my hand flat against this massive tree feeling this amazing energy flowing through!it really does help to get out among nature.I went home feeling soothed and much more at peace.

You are SPOT on! I am so so so happy you made this video, not only for all of us but for you as well!! Figuring out what brings you the most happiness in life is just the beginning and it’s the most freeing feeling in the world. Truly over the moon for you and overjoyed in the amount of people who will watch this and need to hear this! 💗

@carolewyder359 2 года назад

Lydia you are such a beautiful person inside and out. Instead of listening to a podcast i having been listening to this video over and over. It totally resonates living a life of luxury not with just material things.i am really trying hard to live a more simplistic life with less is more. To me if i am going to purchase a pricey item ireally apprecisate. It more if i have worked hard for it.

@lesleyolivier3468 3 года назад

Cant stop watching this!!! Its so fulfilling and useful!!! Thank you Lydia!!! I always say...I'm by no means a simple man, but I like the simple things in life. A little thing that brings me soooooo much joy is when the breeze catches my sheer curtains and blow them into a soft, luxurious bubble. Oh, my heart!!! I can't...

@clemerjosh7724 2 года назад

This video shows full details on how to live a luxury life. Some coins are involved but the most important thing is the luxury. So impressive

@bridaharris9919 3 года назад

Yes yes yes! Loved this and it’s exactly what I am trying to do. I’ve started going for walks again and I feel so much better for it. I love the difference it makes putting the vacuum cleaner around, and it makes me feel really good. Fresh sheets, tidying / styling something I’ve been putting off for ages gives me such pleasure and sense of accomplishment. Having a little bit of home baking for the kids and guests, and I love making lists and ticking things off. I love the way you explained your mindset for your purchases and nobody has the right to judge you for it. Love this!

@TheSimpleMindset 3 года назад

What a wonderful, heartfelt video! I too, realize so much joy from taking my dog for walks, gardening, feeling great after my daily workout, journaling, etc. It really is choosing to be happy, having a healthy mindset and the simple things in life that bring fulfillment. Material things are nice, and a way to reward ourselves for goals met or something well done…..but things, will only ever be things.😊
