My “unsocial” life - giving up my big social circle was the best decision for me as an HSP

Hello lovely Community,
I hope this week was good to you.
We went up north to visit some special places and I decided to use an old craft to make a table runner - potato stamps!Taking up the theme I also made a vegan version of the very British desert / cake Eton Mess and was a treat!
We have reason to celebrate - 10,000 subscribers ! Wow, thank you all.
Have a wonderful week and I see you soon.

I too have reduced my social circle and feel more comfortable with my own company. Thank you. As a new subscriber I am feeling as though I'm not the only one wanting to close the door slightly on the outside world and have my own peace. Take care =-)

Hello Lorraine and thank you for your comment and for subscribing! It seems like many people are not aligned with what modern life requires and I am certainly one of them. I had busy and hectic years but now concentrating on slowing down and finding the right balance for me. Have a wonderful Sunday 🧚

Lovely video. This is exactly how i am today. My unsocial life came about in a different way. Working full time, looking after my home, husband, mother with dementia and helping my daughter out with her children. One day i just couldn't get out of bed. I was just so overwhelmed. Then covid happened. I was forced into solitude and i was grateful. My mum was placed into a home catering to dementia patients so i didnt have to worry about her. Now life is simple and i have never been so happy.

Thank you Donna, this is a very lovely comment. I am happy you found your way through. It often falls to women to not only raise their children and help with grandchildren, but also to look after the ageing parents whilst working. It can be just too much. Enjoy your changed and simpler life 🧚

Hello again dear Scottish Fairie! Another lovely and soothing video. Your walks and the beautiful musical accompaniment is so soothing and lovely! How ironic...that one who has found solace in a quiet life has so many who find her videos so inspiring! To choose to find solace in a quiet life is a life lesson....that few find....in a rushed and demanding world. In the unhurried quietness of nature we find inner peace.

Dear Kerstin, thanks for your video, and sharing your creative projects. You do a great service to the RU-vid community, not only by sharing your own thoughts but by creating a safe platform for others to voice theirs. I have 2 boys, and so had to spend years interacting with schools, parents, healthcare professionals, etc. I always felt as though I was acting out a role, and loved it when I could be alone, and refind the 'real' me behind the facade. I now still have to play a role at work (for a few more years), but at least my evenings and weekends are my own. It's reassuring to see that so many of us feel the same way. You allow us to express that here, and I'm so grateful for that.
@thescottishfairy5396
@thescottishfairy5396 9 дней назад
Thank you for this lovely and thoughtful comment. I (and I am sure many on the channel) can relate to the "role playing" which is unfortunate. Of course sometimes we might do this to protect ourselves (not giving private details to co-workers for example) and that is OK as well. I am happy that you found a way for yourself to be yourself and yes - once we are free from work related commitments being ourselves gets much easier. Have a lovely week 🧚

I shy away from many situations that is prized in the extrovert society. The way I choose to live my life is every bit valid as the extrovert who lives a much more outer directed life. I have a richer interior life....with a small number of close friends...... and very content knowing others share my way of life. If being mindful,...attentive....and appreciative of simple things is a boring life...SIGN ME UP !!!! I prefer it. It is soothing and comforting..and inspires so much creativity. Nature...Mozart....journaling ..morning sunshine.....it is all good !!!! I live in a world where empaths live and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I'm also a HS. I find being around too much noise or people exhausting. I'm far happier and healthier living quietly and gently on the earth. I feel more peaceful alone with my pets.

Hello Kirsten. Congratulations on reaching 10K subscribers 👏 and I know from reading all the comments from others in this lovely community that your channel will continue to grow. I particularly love the places you visit especially the hidden remains of ancient castles which are always very interesting. I wonder do you find some of them through the National Trust of Scotland? I’m hoping to have another visit to Scotland this year and to visit one or two ancient sites of castles if possible. Again your craft projects are delightful. As a child I used to do potato printing at school. Great fun. Your table runner is lovely. It looked to me like you took time and care with the printing process and it turned out beautifully. Lovely video as always. A joy for us all in this community. Have a wonderful week 🌼🌸🌺🌳❤️
@thescottishfairy5396
@thescottishfairy5396 7 дней назад
Hello Lynda and thank you for another wonderful comment. How exciting that you might come to visit Scotland again! As for castles, there is the National Trust and the HSE (Historic Scotland Environment) who look after many castles, manors and sites. There are castles though (Carnbane from the video being one of them) who are not under their care. I am not sure how many but there is a number that is private and in no trust's care. Those are often fenced off due to the lack of constructional surveying on a regular basis. So I would advise to visit the ones you find on NT and HSE. You won't be disappointed! So you did potato printing as well! It is such a simple yet good thing to do, especially on a budget. Have a wonderful week, I am just working on my next video 🧚🌸💜

Hello Ellie and thank you for your kind messages. I agree with you - trees are so special (and so important!) and I also am sad when they are chopped down or fall in a storm. That is really good that you found your way of living (well done for surviving to live in London 🙂). My dresses are a mixture of either dresses I had or found online or a charity shop. This particular one is a second hand one from ebay which was really low in price. I do like NoaNoa dresses, used to really love Laura Ashley ones. But I agree, it isn't easy to find them. You'll need to spend some time online. Have a peaceful Sunday 🌸🧚
