clicked on this video bc most of the typical "self-help"-type advice either doesn't work or doesn't stick. this turned out to be a really helpful video! the points re: meditation, journaling (specifically the why), and the morning menu have given me a lot to think about.

Amen, sister.

What is that app/thing where you coloured the owl? I've been looking for digital colouring books for a while but never found anything I like.

I'm so glad I found your channel, I actually found most of your suggestions helpful! Seasonal depression hits different in the pacific northwest where I live and I'll take any tips I can get hahahah

For the screen time thing, I’m the same way. I found I would rush through journaling just to get on technology faster. What I do instead is kinda like what you do, intentional screen time. I have a mood tracking app I log, journal in xTiles, and watch TH-cam videos like this one to start off the day.

lol i feel like we're the same person bc ive done the SAME THINGSSSS

Rhombus.

"I don't like adding unnecessary S's to the end of things" made ma laugh. I like people with principles 😂

Two Hot Takes!!!!

My husband also had a unreal enthusiasm for flashlights..often has multiple. Gives them away to people who comment on their utility. David, you are not alone!

I think this is the first video of yours I've ever seen, and I just wanted to say the vibes are immaculate. 100/10.

Oh I feel you with the exercises 🙈

"Life isn't a puzzle" Love this 💖

Love this, and you. My anxiety skyrocketed watching you put together a puzzle on top of the pieces puddled on the table. Goose is the best doggo <3

Fun fact!! Coloring or doing a puzzle is also considered meditation! Meditation is any activity that quiets the train of thoughts and makes you more alert about the present.

obsessed with hearing the sims described as relaxing because I could not relax while playing that game to save my life, I'm doing a legacy playthrough and it takes up every corner of my brain

Love Goose!! Thanks for your ideas-given me a new way of looking at forming good habits-have often beaten myself up for 'not being disciplined enough'-this has encouraged me to reassess my own routines-thanks! x 🌹x

I recently got addicted to the fire crackling and purring ambiance video's, but then I want both and music in the back, so i put two on. one with the scenery and jazzy music and then the purring and fire crackle in the back from another video. Perfect!! Also, try the book nook building! You'll get addicted and it is the perfect hobby. Oh, and don't ge me started on the cold, I have the same as you , and no dog, take a cat, it makes you more motivated to stay at home. I love new winter clothes as a motivation indeed, but then I get bored and prefer staying in

I took vitamins and they caused severe muscle spasms in my back. I had to stop :/

After experimenting a lot I found the only morning routine that works for me: sleeping. Just sleep until 5 minutes before whatever I need to do always makes feel better than sleeping less.

This is my first introduction to you. Ur right. I like the high five. Subscribed lol

Also take vitamin D! Game changer.

New sub! I freaking enjoy your humor so much. The morning menu is sooo smart! I’m so going to use this! Thank you for your content! ✨

Wait, anyone have coloring book app recommendations? Too many are just click-to-color! I want to scribble and it look like I clicked 🤣

the concept of "point of performance" has become very helpful for my dad and I. you basically set out everything you will need for the morning like clothes or like say things for a protein shake or something so when you wake up you dont have to worry about where everything is or getting distracted while finding things. Its all already set out for you and ready to go. It might take a few more minutes at night but you will be thankful in the morning.

every once in a while youtube actually nails the recommended videos and this was it. love your humor, adore the vibes. subscribed.

For those who found therapists that “ talk about themselves” “ask you to rate them” ask you how you survived… these are not well trained & professional therapists. Its important to double check that your therapist is 1. certified 2. Has enough experience 3. Does not revolve the conversation around themselves and doesn’t give off their opinion unless its directly related to a problematic behaviour example: do not go drink when you have a drinking issue.. Think of therapists as drs.. Some doctors are professional and others aren’t

I liked the hifive almost as much as the dog

As an AngelTree coordinator, I love that you mentioned it in this video. Thank you!

I need the lighted Christmas tree picture in the background when you are doing the puzzle. I have 2 cats and will probably never have another tree. Could you tell me where you got it? Thanks.

Well done! I struggle with anxiety and this has pushed me to focus on the bright side

I put this video on while I cleaned the living room/kitchen and loved it

This was so helpful and great tips! Sims is my year long hobby and I’m 30!

You are amazing!)) I love your casual and easy behavior. Thank you for remembering me about crosswords, paused the video and went to do one. Also "serotonin hub" is a great idea!! Thougt about taking all bithday congratulations or thank yous in one place but didn't formalize the idea.

Imma need a morning menu video please. I enjoy this idea

consumables: for example I like nut butters but they are expensive so I wouldn't mind being treated to one as a gift, homemade jams, cookies and such, but also non-food stuff like soaps plant cuttings: this requires forethought but that makes it even cooler services: maybe a day of free babysitting for parents, offering skills like gardening, repair etc. donations in their name: I donated money, got a certificate, wrote a note and gifted it with a bottle of non-alcoholic punch Also i recently got the idea of making little travel sewing kits in old tin containers, but I haven't yet done it so I can't atest to how successful it is...

I love New York been twice in my life and it’s my fav place: however, I completely understand why people would find it overwhelming and anxiety inducing. It’s like London for me - sometimes I go and I think god I wish I lived here and then the next time I go, I think thank goodness I live in the countryside in Yorkshire. I did live in BCN for a year and that city I do miss, but it never felt as busy as other cities and also you have the 🌊 sea super close by. 🇵🇸🍉♥️🧿🇸🇩

Alternative Christmas tree idea: decorate your houseplant(s). I've previously added lights to a huge climbing pothos. Over the last couple of years, I've decorated my Norfolk Island Pine, which is a tropical plant that looks just like a Christmas tree. I also knitted some mini bobble hats that I hang on him as baubles/decorations (I say he, because his name is Norman). And I knitted a larger bobble hat that he wears with in place of a traditional star/angel.

Here a year late but I love this sweater!

Theres people who will be looking at you and judge you. As long as you arent hurting anyone, just let it go. people do it as their own coping mechanism, its on you.

Ok the deciding on an outfit thing. So i have some new clothes from last year that i barely ever wear. Because i cannot go through the emotional and decision making labor of making the outfits. Like hey i have these grey pants, i am unsure on their warmth level because i havent really worn them yet (they were a gift), and idk how different top options would go with them. So every time i just skip and settle with one of the familiar combos i know 😂 cause we going for presentable and actually making our way to work.

Something nice I'm doing is making handmade Christmas cards. I haven't done so since I was, maybe 5. But I've kind of gotten into art at the end of this year so I decided "screw it, why not". No matter the quality, it's worth more than anything I could just lazily go onto Amazon, type a word in then add to basket for.

Super relatable! My favorite form of meditation is doing yoga, as I can still focus on my breathing and how my body is feeling (bit like a body scan) and it feels like a really loving thing to do for myself. The scrapbook journal is something I just decided I wanted to try doing, and now you are talking about it in this video, so that feels like confirmation!!

i feel like i watched your fall guide just yesterday😭😭it was a good fall but time really goes fast . and now after this video im really excited for winter !!! love you

Your videos are always so cozy and inspiring ⭐

Try Stardew Valley.

wait til you hit 43. nothing comes together.

Please tell me where you got that mug 😍

I use affirmations not as a goal i want to be, but instead positive self talk. Ie I am able to focus on what I can change

I'd like to thank my FBI agent for making sure this video found me exactly when it did
