I was just sitting here watching videos and thinking "I HAVE to get up & do the dishes" but I really don't feel like it. I've not had brain surgery but my husband just had surgery (5th total knee replacement), 2 brothers-in-law died from prostate cancer and a brother & brother-in-law who have prostate cancer, 2 friends died and my best friend is dying - all since July. All I want to do is sit & cry but I can't in front of my husband while he's healing. I have fibromyalgia & severe arthritis so I'm hurting most of the time. Thank you for giving permission to not do the dishes so I can focus on trying to deal with my emotions since my antidepressant doesn't seem to be helping!
발음이 깨끗하고 비속어도 없어서 영어학습 유투브인지 알았어요~ 건강하세요! 영상 감사합니다!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I hope you, too, stay healthy and happy 💖
❤🎉 Thank you so much for the good advice. But most of all for your true compassion.And empathy. You have a very healing voice.🎉❤
@@janecaswell7579 That is so sweet☺️❤️ Thank you so much for your kind words!!
Is there a task that makes you feel exhausted just thinking about it? Have you tried breaking it down into bite sized chunks? Share tips you've learned to make your to do list achievable!
Shout out to all the medical professionals who work so diligently and patiently to help us on the road to recovery! Which provider has had the greatest impact on YOUR healing??
many thanks for sharing this valuable information, i appreciate it so very much. diane from london uk 🙋🏼♀️
Thank you so much for watching!! 😃@@dianepeck7500
Love these! My new favourite soothing podcast - you can use it for sleep or just a nice zen moment, especially if you're outdoors - is As the Season Turns. It's beautifully narrated and gives you a monthly guide to the season and what's growing, migrating, happening in the skies and stars, etc. It's from the UK so what's in her yard/garden/forest isn't always the same as mine, but that doesn't make it any less enjoyable.
What's the best sleep tip you've ever been given? What about the WORST tip? 😂
Thank you for your informative video. I've been trying to help a friend who had a serious concussion a few years ago. There were many changes in his behaviour. This video helped me as I realise the importance to celebrate the small wins. Ive become more tolerant when he has a bad day or a bad moment. He can become easily frustrated and angry. I try not to take it personally, he's doing the best he can. All the best ☺️
Oh Anna! You are such a good friend! And you're in a really tough spot. I remember constantly asking my medical team if I was crazy, because I felt like a different person with the personality changes. It must be really difficult for friends without a concussion to understand and I think you are WONDERFUL for being there for your friend and offering support and understanding. The small wins are important and not taking it personally is important…but your feelings are really important, too! It’s sad that your friend has changed and it’s okay for you to feel frustrated and disappointed sometimes, too ❤ Good luck and thank you so much for being there for your friend with a concussion. It can feel so lonely and, even when he doesn’t show it, your support is making a big difference in his life ❤ L~
I’ve spoken with a few people recently who are super frustrated and really struggling with their concussion. If this is where you’re at, hang in there! Concussions SUCK! But this is not forever, even though healing feels so so sooo slow ❤
Whether it's fast food, frozen food or gourmet, your brain needs energy to heal! What foods are you eating to fuel your brain's recovery?
I live close to Lake Ontario, so walking by the water is easy for me, but I also live near a conservation area, so green space is easily accessible, too! When you spend time outdoors, is it near the blue or the green...or something in between!?
My sister and brother in law are visiting from the states and they are staying at my parent's house, but I'm at home with a headache today. If you're missing out on fun stuff, I am with you in spirit! So I'm in 'nurture' mode! I'm currently polishing off an ice cream cone (Haagen-Dazs coffee in a kiddie cone) and making myself laugh by relistening to some of my favourite Normal Gossip podcast episodes. What is something you do to make yourself feel better when you can't do something you'd really like to do?
Switching from guided meditations to self led meditations is HARD! I started with Kathryn Nicolai and her podcast First This, where she shares short, 8 to 10 minute guided meditations! When I started meditating on my own, I was able to sit still and not feel like a weirdo for shorter amounts of time, starting around 2 minutes. Are you trying self led meditations? Guided meditations? What's your biggest struggle right now?
My neighbours are being SUPER LOUD today. I'm focusing on my AMAZING earbuds and catching up on my favourite podcasts 🗣 What are you grateful for today?
Do you have a surprising assistive device? Something that others might not call 'medically necessary' but makes your life so much easier? For me, it's my coffee sling! Huge impact, low cost, more caffeine, happy camper 😁
What helps you to stay grounded in stressful situations? For me, it's a combination of meditation when I'm not stressed to kind of practice for when I am stressed, and the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding.

Thank you for sharing information. I am glad that I found your channel.
@@joeblackwood6384 Thanks so much!! I'm glad you found the channel, too 😀
Thank you for this. I’ve had medical issues that have left me weak for years now and I live alone. Seeing the state of my place has left me feeling defeated, stressed and slightly depressed. Knowing that I’m not the only one with a dwelling that resembles a war zone is refreshing.
@@kimberlycole727 You're not the only one!! I'm sorry you're going through this ❤️ Healing is hard work and WAY more important than running the vacuum through your house 😉 Take it easy on yourself!! You're focusing on the right things and you'll get to tidying when your body is feeling up to it.
I sure appreciate this, though I’ve mostly healed from my concussions. I wish I’d found this sooner! Thank you for your content! ❤
Thank you for commenting! I'm so glad you're mostly healed!! ❤️ It's a long journey, isn't it??
Great tips! I have two suggestions for people who make it through the phases of actually getting the dishes and clothes washed and put away but are afraid of getting back to the mess. When I am not doing well (depression, not a concussion) I find the easiest thing is to live out of the dishwasher and clothes dryer. I leave my dishwasher open, and when I have a dirty dish, it goes right into the dishwasher. When it’s full, I run it then leave it open again and just use dishes out of there. I pretend the cupboards do not exist for as long as necessary and I just use and wash the same 4 plates and 5 cups and 3 bowls and so forth over and over again. Same thing with my laundry - I use the washing machine as my laundry hamper and when it’s full, I run it, put the stuff in the dryer, and then get dressed straight out of the dryer every day. My closet does not exist to me for however long it takes until I am finally ready to put things on hangers and in drawers again. It’s not a perfect system - more than a few times I have to rewash a load that I can’t bring myself to put in the dryer in time, and yes, I am usually very wrinkled - but the alternative is mounds of dirty dishes and clothes that feel completely overwhelming. Thanks so much for your channel, you are a joy to listen to! 😊
I LOVE these ideas! It helped me when I stopped feeling the pressure to only run the dishwasher when it's full. This idea of running it with your 4 plates and 3 bowls is so great!
You're a genius
Very good ideas. And I just saw a video where Everyone in the family only has 2 towels each.. Same thing with the Bed linens. Her philosophy was. To keep the laundry accelerate from building up. They also only had a capsule Wardrobe.
@@janecaswell7579 This are great ideas!! I can get so overwhelmed trying to pick out clothes. Less things hanging in the closet makes things so much easier! Thanks!!
First to 👍 and probably 3rd to view. I also have a car accident and had a concussion. Lost memory for 24hrs.
Welcome! Thanks for the thumbs up and for connecting 😀 Memory loss is so scary! I'm sorry you went through that. Car accident + concussion + lost memory...it sounds really difficult.
