I had a hairstylist tell me the exact same thing when I was in my 20s! She said no one with my hair color (dark blonde to light brown) should wear their natural color. Yet here I am, loving it and saving hundreds of dollars every year 😊

no wonder..i feel like i need to sleep more than 8 hours.

Yep, yep, yep! ISFJ here!

I love fika hygge lagom. Now I’m gonna add niksen to my list!

Can you make a vid explaining this to my family? Like why they need to learn to whipe their own a***s so I can niken a little bit? … it’s a joke… mostly. Love the vid.

Hi Vera Love your channel and your hair colour too, i do not wear make up or colour my hair either and not wanting to boast i get regular lovely comments about my hair colour, a good diet and other factors are usually enough. Thank you for sharing i just love your contents thank you for all you do, have a lovely week.

I thought I was content with fika..have to include niksen too😊

I did nothing yesterday, and today I’m going to do nothing again because I wasn’t finished😅

i wish America was more like the Netherlands or Scandinavia, but i don't think it will ever be. Our population is too large, we have to many people with competing ideas and nobody can agree on anything, which only breaks down our society.

Americans are too obsessed with making money. that's why trump is their hero. I think they all have an inferiority complex.

I am a Dane living in Denmark, and most of what you said, is also the way we are living. But I also knew that Dutch and Danish culture is very similar.

Similar to the French laissez-faire attitude, or the Asian religious way of letting things take their course of action with minimum interactions, relying on leveraging specific actions.

12 , tickle my toes, 34, shut the door , 56, lay then straight,7….zzzzz

Where's your bonnet? Where's you keep your horses? Are you PA Dutch or Ohio Dutch?

Thank you so much for sharing, I learnt something new and hope to apply them in my life ❤

Have a lovely day, yout oo! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences! I've watched a bunch of your videos and today I decided to subscribe! Not to take on other people's problems as if they were mine, sure is difficult - but your calm makes me feel that you have such capacity to live your happy life, that I need not worry for you, and that feels so relaxing and hope-inspiring! So my "like" (thumb up) is not to help or support, it is pure appreciation for your contribution to a better world and a better me!!! Your videos keep being relevant. 🙂All the best wishes!

Wonderful, I like it. I wonder how this works with three teenage sons in the house.

I cried watching this. Thank you so much for making this video❤️☀️

Thank you soooooo much for this video! And I love the message that we might not be the toughest but we are the strongest! And there's nothing we cannot do. Thank you so much 😭💘

Avoiding drama, endless discussions and gossip really is a thing for me. Sometimes I don't even realize that I am sucked into those things. So thank you for the reminder. I will go about that more mindfully. Keeping routined as simple as possible was a game changer for me. I read a lot about household chore routines like fly lady etc, and decided that this was not for me. I thought about joining the five a.m.-club, but valued my sleep more, so I just shifted my morning routine a bit to get everything gone what I need to get done in the morning. I learned that just because everyone and their cat do certain things, it does not mean that I have to do the same.

My roommates talks in Morse code. The dumb staff don’t understand it, we do! I got an app

Thank you for making this video!

Your natural colour isn`t dull at all, actually. It`s very beautiful!

From a Brit, most Dutch speak better English than Brits 😂

4:32 **slows the video from 2x to 1.5x speed**

I am a niksen expert. Effortlessly let ideas flow and be naturally inspired to do things

Awesome thanks from South Africa

I am definitely guilty of having a backlog of books XD Deleting most of my SM accounts helped simplify my life. I have FOMO sometimes, and I may or may not create a couple of accounts again, but it's nice not to feel like I have to check them constantly.

Many thanks. Great ideas.

Best advice "less/no DRAMA"!

Gezellig isy favorite takeaway! This practice of making the ordinary special in some way is a great way to center oneself, be mindful, and live in the moment. I will work on this immediately! Thank you

Two of the simplest changes I’ve made over the years are daily walks and eating more whole food snacks. Makes life so much simpler not worrying about sodium, cholesterol, calories, and the like. I eat what I like, when I like and if a sweet is involved, it’s all good. My friends are often hypochondriacs, stressing about inane health things or chemicals, and I decided health and wellness doesn’t need to be complicated with diets or fads, unless of course you’re working with a professional. In that case, do you. But for me, a cookie with my tea is great, and a daily walk is enough exercise to count for something, if I can’t for whatever reason, do other movement that day. It keeps things positive and consistent. In terms of chemicals, I do my best to avoid, but if a body wash ranks a 5 on the Environmental Working Group database, I won’t just chuck it out. I grew up on simple foods and homemade meals, so if something has extra “bad” things in it, remembering the 80/20 rule- living healthy 80% of the time and enjoying the 20% for desserts, treats, occasional splurges- to me, is a life well lived. While I prioritize savings, my father also believed money and health can’t be taken with you when you pass away, and that’s how I strive to live my life now. It keeps life much more simple, to not over complicate it in the first place. Also, when things come up or bills come in, I just do it then or pay to simplify. Don’t procrastinate easy things and let problems develop in the first place. And for extra exercise, I clean my house or leave early for appointments. Works just as well as a two hour work out, at least personally and less stress in traffic.

Oh my god! Thank you so much for this video!!! It all makes so much sense now. I'm just learning about my HS and all the things you are mentioning just click. The small fact of wind affecting me so hard... I never realized... I'm going to re-watch this video a couple of times to take it all in and also read the book. Thank you!

I agree about avoiding drama, however, I will say something or get involved as peacefully as possible if someone is actively being harmed (and not able to defend themselves) or vehemently making discriminatory statements. Opinions and feelings are totally fine, and I'll defend your right to have them, but being intentionally harmful to others is never ok.

My wife loves to buy stuff, I don't.

This just white people stuff.

Hi Vera. I sit in the shade in the park or balcony in summer and sketch nature...or have a nap or rest in the afternoon. Love your videos. Glad you learned somuch at an early age to help HSPs. Thanks from Canadian artist. ❤❤😊😊😊

i might ditch cd's altogether....i may go for a streamer...or a all in one solution

When. you were talking about clothing items, it cracked me up when you put in the note "Please no. Life is too short for this". I never thought about it like that, but you're absolutely right. Life is too short for undergarments with holes. It doesn't matter that no one sees it. Although I was really waffling on spending the money, this made me laugh and challenged me at the same time. Let me go out and replace my holy stuff because it's not holy as in sacred... it's trying to die and I'm not letting it. It has served me as long and as best as it could. It's time to let go now🤣

Such a good video with really great ways to be happier.

Him: Wanna go out? Her: Sorry I'm having a niksen day.

Your natural hair color is perfect! Just as nature intended. I stopped coloring my hair two years ago and it feels so liberating! Tired of dumping chemicals into my scalp. Aside from the cash, I could have studied for a PhD for all the hours I spent in that salon chair!!!

I was going to let my hair go natural after years of highlights and lowlights. My hairdresser told me the highlights helped give my hair volume since it's very fine. I did the highlights one more time but honestly didn't notice any difference in volume. Also it was very expensive.

I totally agree with prioritizing function over esthetic lately . I used to decant all of my shower items into pretty glass bottles and one day I just realized how much more work it was creating for myself to have to keep refilling them and cleaning them out, waiting for them to dry … Now if the labels on shampoo and such are too “loud” I just peel them off and go on with my day!

Talking less is the secret 🤫 about everything

I love your videos. Full of good, common sense info and aesthetically pleasing.

Your Visio has popped up just at the moment that it is most needed. Reminding me I can distress one small step at a time thank you.

I was raised in a highly dramatising family. I was always blamed for being indifferent to adults's drama

Hopefully, one day I can go there to learn many things.
