MINIMALIST CLEANING ROUTINE - natural & simple cleaning habits 🧽 

❤️❤️❤️

Oh, that's the thing! Indeed very refreshing

I know this is an older video, but I am glad there is no annoying music. I just click off of them as soon As I hear it. By lots of comments I see ,I wonder if the person making the video realize how many viewers they lose ?

Aw, thank you so much! Many more simple cleaning/life videos to come ❤️

Thank you so much :) yes it feels much more spacious! Moving into something even smaller soon 😅

Hi Adrian! How great! I'm so glad my videos can be useful :) Oh yes! I love that fact about not using oil either - we basically don't have to clean our oven. I haven't made a video on it, but it's a good video idea! Using splashes of water works just as fine and is a lot healthier. Here is a bit more information on my diet and why I don't eat oil in general nutritionfacts.org/

Oh clever!

Thank you so much! It’s made cleaning enjoyable so I’m glad you liked it :)

Thank you so much 🥰

Yay! Will absolutely make more cleaning videos ❤️ :D

Thank you ❤

Yay thanks so much 😊

Oh thank you so much, I really appreciate that! I am the same!

Oh yay! Thanks so much :) Super happy that you could find some new uses. Baking soda is so versatile and makes it so clean so easy!

Oh thanks so much ❤️

Thank you so much ❤️ I will absolutely make more cleaning videos and minimalism videos!

Oh thank you so much ☺️ I will make more videos for sure! I buy Swedish dish cloths locally. I just Google where I can find them since I don’t want to support Amazon! They often sell them in eco or zero waste shops online :)

I have a link now :) nz.iherb.com/pr/skoy-sponge-cloth-white-4-pack/112753?rcode=GMP613

Glad you liked it!

Thank you!!

Thank you! :)

Oh I love that saying. It is so true, and often as you say, overlooked. Cleaning is so much easier without the “owl” and I find it also less overwhelming. To answer your questions :) 1. When cleaning I tend to not do anything else. But I do quite enjoy the task of cleaning and letting my mind go crazy before it settles down. I rarely listen to podcasts. Only for long travels really. But sometimes when I cook I do, because I find cooking a bit more difficult. But Pema Chodron speaks fantastically about how even the most mundane tasks such as cleaning can be fresh and present and rediscovered each time, with meditation. That is my aspiration. 2. Yes, I restored a sofa but we sold it because the money seemed more useful. Currently we sit on organic latex squabs or square cushions, similar to the Japanese style. However once we have a settled home I want a sofa because I find it useful, as long as it doesn’t come with a tv ;) I prefer to have a place to rest my back when reading, currently that’s quite difficult and I end up hunched over on the floor. I’m hoping to create some sort of built in sofa in a corner, with cushions on top. This way it’s part of the home and not furniture. The floor is okay but reading as mentioned, is difficult. Gatherings quickly become more personal but I think we would technically need a low table to be able to sit better. But for now it works. In the van we will have a sofa, but that converts in to a bed so not really applicable for house living as such ☺️ But I agree with you. And there of my long reply. Sofas are difficult to find in natural materials, and personally I find them a bit odd looking. But there’s nothing like reading a book in a comfortable sofa and having that separation between relaxing and sleeping.

Thank you! Will definitely do more 🥰

Thank you!

Thank you 🙂

Hope you like it!

You’re welcome ☺️

Thank you so much!!

Thank you!

Thank you so much! Great tip! I've heard that's great, I'd love to try it :)

@SagaJohanna All the best with your Channel ☺️

Yay! Will Make that one soon :)

I just use water or vegetable stock! :)

Thank you so much Barbara! I would love to make some more specific ones :)

Thank you so much 🥰

Oh and car cleaning also… maybe even garden and entrance outside upkeep and sweep - how often why … 😊

Oh and lighting - you sound like you know led is bad as well as mercury ones… so with incandescent light bulbs, what illumines number and watts , which areas since so many in room

Wow, thank you SO MUCH! Amazing suggestions, I have saved them all. And love your name ;) ❤ I am actually really wanting to do more cleaning videos! My mattress is an organic latex mattress, 100% latex, nothing else. Best material by far, completely non toxic, but very very expensive. Our first one was second hand until we could afford a new one! For the Berkey, I clean it every three months. I empty it and clean the inside with dishsoap, rinse completely, and then let it dry upside down on kitchen towels. I also scrub the black filters until they're clean, and it works so much faster after this, highly recommend! And also, you're doing amazing

Here are the ones I buy nz.iherb.com/pr/if-you-care-compostable-sponge-cloths-5-clothes/104947?rcode=GMP613&

I just use a stainless steel one! :) I can't remember the brand!

Thank you so so much!! For the inside of the toilet I pour in baking soda and vinegar, put the lid on and leave for 5 minutes. Then I use a toilet brush to clean it. This removes any stains and discoloration and is very effective and non toxic. To clean the inner rim I use my vinegar spray. Once I’m done I like to flush it and then pour some essential oils onto the toilet brush and into the toilet :)

@@SagaJohanna Thank you very much for your answer ! I will try it your way next time I'm cleaning :)

@@graciafaessler9286 yay! Let me know how it goes 🙏🏻

Thanks so much! New Zealand! West coast has beautiful evergreen bush

Hello! How cool! :) In the dish washer I've been buying a local eco friendly detergent, but I have heard you can make your own.

So happy to hear that! Thank you :) It is okay for the skin, as long as you don't have any cuts, then vinegar can sting a little bit. As long as you wash your hands after it is absolutely fine. And if you have very sensitive skin you can just use 1 part vinegar diluted in water! I too do not like using gloves!

I love the smell of vinegar too! And baking soda is so effective so give it a try, especially in the bathroom! I use one I bought in New Zealand, they have a cute design with bees on them! They are so expensive here though! Almost 70 kr for one! :o

@@SagaJohanna Oh! That's pretty expensive! But hey, it's worth it. I mean, you put your money where it's needed and not on other things that just becomes clutter etc. :)

Our apartment is a sort of studio apartment, I have an apartment tour if you want to check it out. In New Zealand they often don’t have a separate entrance, which is weird… so I keep my shoes outside. I do wash my bathroom cleaning cloths separately and even separately from each other. So I have one for toilet and one for sink/shower/laundry :)

I don’t sorry. I’d suggest any local shop (or anything that isn’t Amazon :))

Yes! nz.iherb.com/pr/nellie-s-swedish-dishcloths-3-cloths/120923?rcode=GMP613

Vacuum cleaner and mop maybe once every other month

scrubbing it with baking powder on a damp cloth to get rid of stains/streaks, and then rinse off!

I use it diluted, and the cloth is not wet :)

If you’re worried about actually killing germs you can add a few teaspoons of distilled alcohol to the vinegar cleaning mixture. Vinegar does work as a disinfectant to some degree but not as powerful as alcohol. To avoid strong chemicals you can make your own cleaning spray :)

Ohh! That's a great question. It's an ergonomic kneeling chair. One of the main reason for bad posture is modern day chairs being built, which encourage your knees to be higher than your sit bones. To stack your spine easily you need your sit bones above your knees. This is what this chair does and it has made my long days of sitting and working feel much better 😁

Thank you very much! I didn't know such a thing existed.

Yes! :)

What country are you in? Normally I buy them at my local zero waste/eco store. Like Whole Foods in the USA/UK, or GoodFor in NZ. In Sweden you buy them at the supermarket. Otherwise you can get them online by searching “Swedish dish cloth” :)

I have a link now :) nz.iherb.com/pr/skoy-sponge-cloth-white-4-pack/112753?rcode=GMP613

Doesn't contain cornstarch here :) But yes, both can be used!

Planning on making a video on this!

Haha i love delicious food! But it can be made without oil to avoid heart disease!

That’s impressive 😂

It's a rental apartment :) 36m2!

Haha :D
