If your home feels chaotic right now, I
0:01
want you to know that you are not alone.
0:04
Many mothers, many homemakers often feel
0:07
this way. And very often, maybe your
0:10
counters are full of dishes. The laundry
0:12
is piling up. Toys are scattered. Dinner
0:14
is still somewhere like in the middle of
0:16
being made. Life happens fast and our
0:19
homes can feel like they are constantly
0:22
behind. But I'm here to remind you that
0:25
finding that peace and calm again does
0:28
not come from perfection. Because
0:31
seriously, who among us is actually
0:33
perfect?
0:34
It comes from small, consistent choices,
0:37
routines, and a mindset shift that just
0:41
lets you turn your chaos into a home
0:43
that feels peaceful and manageable
0:45
again.

Welcome to motherhood and homemaking. My
0:53
name is Heaven and here on this channel
0:54
I'm always sharing motherhood motivation
0:56
and homemaking inspiration. Anything
0:59
that I feel is relatable, realistic, and
1:01
helpful. I'm in a current season of life
1:03
of where I feel that slowing down and
1:06
living a bit more minimal is beneficial
1:09
for families, particularly those who
1:10
feel a little bit overwhelmed or for
1:13
those of us who have a pretty busy
1:15
schedule. So, if that sounds like
1:17
something that maybe you relate to as
1:19
well, maybe that's your current season
1:20
of life, you are looking forward to
1:22
slowing down as well, or even just
1:25
looking for ways to better manage your
1:27
home, then I think that this channel is
1:29
perfect for you. I always try to keep it
1:33
fun and uplifting and encouraging around
1:36
here. just a breath of fresh air on your
1:39
timeline in a world that can often feel
1:42
very busy and very overwhelming,
1:44
especially in today's social media
1:46
world. So, I would love for you to
1:47
subscribe and join my family, but for
1:50
today, I would really love to just
1:52
encourage you a little bit and be a
1:54
little bit of calm in your chaotic day
1:58
if that is you today.
2:00
[Music]
2:06
The first step to finding that calm
2:08
again is quite simple.
2:11
Slow down and stop trying to do
2:13
everything at once. A chaotic home
2:15
usually doesn't happen overnight. It
2:17
builds gradually day by day as we set
2:20
things down instead of putting them
2:21
away. Postpone small tasks and let
2:24
clutter grow. I know that this is
2:26
something that happens sometimes when we
2:29
are exhausted. We've had a long day. And
2:31
although I know that we do have many of
2:34
those, the longer we prolong these
2:36
things, the more it becomes a routine.
2:38
So sometimes we just need to adjust our
2:41
routine a little bit. Instead of
2:43
focusing on everything that needs to be
2:45
done, pick up one area to reset first.
2:48
For me, it's usually the kitchen because
2:51
it is just that one room in the house
2:53
that is constantly being used, so it can
2:56
start to feel cluttered and messy the
2:58
fastest. A clear counter can definitely
3:01
make the whole house feel calmer, as
3:04
well as a clear sink that is not full of
3:07
dishes. Even if the rest of the home is
3:10
not perfect, when you start small, it's
3:12
easier to build momentum without
3:14
actually feeling overwhelmed.
3:31
Another thing as mentioned is that
3:34
mindset shift. Cooking does not have to
3:38
be stressful. It's one of the ways that
3:40
we can care for our families. And it can
3:42
actually be calming if we approach it
3:44
intentionally. Instead of rushing, try
3:46
slowing down. I always encourage mothers
3:48
and homemakers, especially if they're
3:51
feeling overwhelmed, to slow down. Wash
3:53
as you go. Put things away while waiting
3:55
for the water to boil or even the oven
3:58
to preheat. These small actions will
4:01
prevent cast from building further and
4:04
make the space feel a lot more
4:05
manageable. Even the smallest acts like
4:08
chopping vegetables, stirring a pot, or
4:11
wiping the counters can become a mini
4:14
reset for your home and your mind.
4:22
When it comes to like cleaning videos
4:24
and cleaning motivation,
4:27
one of the myths and something that we
4:29
can sometimes take away from that is
4:30
that it needs to be done perfectly or in
4:32
one long session. I rarely these days do
4:36
a full whole house clean. I just rarely
4:39
can get that done. It's just not
4:40
realistic for me now that I have a
4:43
one-year-old. And if I do, it's honestly
4:45
usually exhausting and it's just not
4:48
sustainable. So instead, think of
4:50
cleaning as a reset rather than
4:52
punishment.
4:54
So instead of trying to do it all at
4:56
once, try to split it up a bit and maybe
5:00
even focus on small parts or small
5:02
areas, certain rooms each day.
5:06
Think of cleaning as a reset rather than
5:09
punishment. Every dish washed, every
5:11
counter wipe, every load of laundry
5:13
folded helps your home reset a little
5:16
bit at a time. You don't have to finish
5:18
everything today. You just need to take
5:20
the next step. Small, consistent habits.
5:23
That is what keeps a home calm.
5:28
[Music]
5:30
When you break tasks into manageable
5:33
pieces, the process just becomes less
5:35
stressful, more sustainable, and also
5:38
much more approachable.
5:40
[Music]
5:45
Calm homes are built on rhythm, not
5:48
perfection. You don't need a strict
5:49
schedule or a deep cleaning routine. You
5:52
need small repeatable habits like a
5:55
quick kitchen reset in the morning or at
5:57
night. Making the beds as soon as you
5:59
get out of them, a 5minut tidy before
6:01
you go to sleep. Folding laundry right
6:04
after it comes out of the dryer. Doing
6:06
one small load a day so that once you do
6:08
fold it, it doesn't take you a whole
6:10
hour. These small actions done
6:12
consistently prevent chaos from taking
6:15
over and make the house feel manageable
6:16
without burning you out.
6:23
Clutter isn't just physical, it's
6:25
mental. So when your home is full of
6:28
things that you don't use, it adds
6:30
stress and noise to your day. It also
6:32
makes it harder for you to get to the
6:34
things that you actually do use. So
6:36
start with the items that cause the most
6:38
friction in your home and ask yourself,
6:40
do we use this? Does this make life
6:43
easier or harder? Letting go of the
6:45
things that don't serve you creates
6:47
space for calm to settle in. You don't
6:50
have to declutter everything at once.
6:52
Even small steps make a difference.
7:03
[Music]
7:11
[Music]
7:14
One thing to remember is that calm homes
7:16
start with you. As you can see, I have
7:19
quite a bit of a mess here in my
7:21
kitchen. I started this video with a
7:24
sink full of dishes. I have little ones
7:27
running around behind me in the
7:28
background. I'm trying to cook while
7:30
also preparing meals, this is just what
7:32
homemaking looks like for me. And while
7:35
it could look like or feel like a lot,
7:38
as long as we just slow it down a little
7:40
bit and look at it from a different
7:41
mindset, it's really not not so bad. And
7:44
at the end of this, I still have a full
7:47
day to be able to just rest knowing that
7:50
I was able to make a difference in my
7:53
home and for my family today.
7:57
At the end of the day, a calm home
7:59
doesn't start with a perfectly organized
8:01
space. It instead starts with a calm
8:04
mindset. So, what started off in this
8:07
video as a sink full of dishes, hungry
8:10
children that need to be fed, a meal
8:12
that has not yet been prepared,
8:16
because I had a calm mindset, I was able
8:19
to get through it and get the things
8:22
done that needed to get done. And even
8:24
when the house is still a little bit
8:25
messy, you can still choose to slow
8:28
down, reset, and just create little
8:30
moments of peace. For me, that little
8:32
moment of peace was created inside of my
8:34
kitchen.
8:39
[Music]
8:51
[Music]
8:58
Think of things like folding a blanket
9:00
while the kids play, wiping down a
9:03
counter while the pasta cooks, or light
9:05
a candle during cleanup. That that
9:08
definitely sets the mood and makes a big
9:10
difference. But these small choices kind
9:13
of just creates a ripple throughout your
9:14
home. it starts to become more normal
9:17
where whenever you just have little
9:18
pockets of time, you find little ways to
9:21
make your home a little bit more calm, a
9:23
little bit more peaceful. And that
9:25
rhythm will also create a sense of order
9:27
and a feeling of peace that everyone in
9:30
the home will be able to feel.
9:33
[Music]
9:48
Com homes are built little by little.
9:50
You don't have to do everything today.
9:51
You just need to take the next small
9:53
step and start with one surface, one
9:56
routine, and one habit.
9:59
[Music]
10:12
Celebrate the little wins and let them
10:14
remind you that you're doing important
10:16
work. Every little thing that you're
10:17
doing, it's important. And you're not
10:19
just keeping a house. You're creating a
10:21
home where your family can feel safe and
10:24
loved and calm. And that is worth more
10:27
than any perfectly clean home.
10:31
[Music]
10:37
