    DEODORANT INGREDIENTS! 2 parts arrowroot powder : 2-2.25 parts baking soda : 1 part coconut oil + a couple drops of your fave essential oil (I like lavender). Mix well until it is a paste. Store in a glass jar. To apply mix about 1 tsp of paste with 1/4-1/2 tsp Shea butter and rub under arms 🌸

      Heey, Jenné :) , does anyone of these ingredients actually close (to some degree) the pores, to prevent the sweating...or the deodorant is simply for the scent? thank you!!! ♥ ps: I love all your outfits in this morning !!!! ;)

      Thank you for making homemade deodorant "acceptable." I've been making my own deodorant using our homemade shea butter as a "base" for years because of severe allergies/sensitivities, but I've always been embarrassed to mention it. You've helped me embrace my uniqueness (and perhaps perfect my blend)...

    • @SweetPotatoSoul
      @SweetPotatoSoul  7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Kirali The arrowroot keeps you dry, but doesn't prevent sweating as far as I know. Good luck!!

      @natashahynes8642 7 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      You never want to be using products that stop your sweating because that is so bad for your body. However, the deodorant she has mentioned above is amazing for eliminating the smell. Trust me, it's the best. The only thing I found is that its so harsh on my skin and makes it all red, so mixing it with shea butter like she mentioned is definitely the way to go. If you want, you can look up on my blog (www.buoyantseas.com) for a recipe that is very similar to hers. If you take my recipe and "discard" one third of it and replace it with shea butter, it would work out amazingly.

      Yo girl! Start with guided meditations if you're not sure where to begin. Or, close your eyes, free your mind, open your heart and visualize someone's face or a place etc... that lights you up. Focus on that. Let all your thoughts go, if thoughts pop up, that's cool, but just view them as passing by, don't focus on them.

    My morning routines when I'm at school are really simple. I often wake up and go to the bathroom (brush teeth, wash face, clean nose piercing), and then I pick out my clothes and go to the dining hall for often 1hr+ and just sip tea, eat lots of fruit + oats + whatever else, I finish whatever homework I have, and I chat with my friends or just listen to good music while I sit there. The walk to the dining hall is also one of my favorite parts, since my campus is so scenic! I love it! Loved you video as well!

    Thank you for sharing! This was so joyful to watch!
    I started my first full time job post college last October and I'm still working on getting a routine down... so far I've built up waking up at 6am, drinking coffee on my balcony, cleaning for a bit, then getting ready and getting into work early. I would ideally squeeze in a run, but that adds a solid hour onto my morning, so I'm trying to gradually wake up earlier to accommodate that. I'm trying to think of other little beneficial things to squeeze in too.

    • @SweetPotatoSoul
      @SweetPotatoSoul  7 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    I did this morning routine for the majority of my days in a year and it was the best thing I could have ever done. It helped my mental health so much it's crazy. I fell out of it bc I've been lazier lately but I'm trying to reincorporate it, but here it is:
    wake up at 5:25
    15 minutes exercise or yoga
    1 hour 30 minutes eating breakfast, drinking coffee, and listening to an audiobook
    10 minutes meditation
    55 minutes being outside (I'd usually write in my journal or read poetry but you can do whatever)
    45 minutes creative writing
    If reading and writing aren't your thing, then I'd go for other things that you enjoy that wake up your mind in a creative way, because working your brain always makes you more happy. For example, maybe you could listen to a space podcast and draw, or play guitar, or make crafts etc.

    • @erinsymone1645
      @erinsymone1645 7 ปีที่แล้ว +74

      I would not say they are crazy, just very passionate about stopping animal abuse and slaughter and stating what they believe is wrong without compromising that message for the comfort of others (in this case, meat eaters). this may come off as "demonizing" to some but hey, we all vibe with different approaches and that's okay. =)

    • @clem269
      @clem269 7 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      treating people who dont condone severe animal abuse and animal agriculture and its consequences as if theyre crazy is very hypocritical.
      while there is a difference between being unnecessarily aggressive and being passionate, can you really blame a vegan for being frustrated when people still condone animal abuse in 2017?
      i think the rhetoric behind veganism is fine. even the "hostile" rhetoric.

    • @clem269
      @clem269 7 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      LIN JONES i know that, but the people who claim to love animals but eat animal meat are being cognitively dissonant. so i can understand how a vegan would become frustrated at that sort of willful ignorance, especially when all the facts are publicly presented.
      love would be great! but in a healthy relationship, to recieve love, you have to show it in return.

    • @Esbenmad
      @Esbenmad 7 ปีที่แล้ว +27

      clem I think it is important for everyone to accept that we are all on our own individual journey. Eating meat doesnt make you a bad person, and most vegans have been meat eaters anyway. Life is filled with dillemmas. Fx we could all live on oat, live in a tent and send the money we would have spent to developing countries and safe lives. But most of us dont do that. I try to limit my meat consumption and only buy free range stuff, but I havent always done that. I am drawn to vegan channels and maybe I will transition some day. One thing I do know is that it will not be the condemning vegans who will make me make that choice but channels like this one, Simnet Nutrition and So True Q. Positive channels with positive people who show that being a vegan can be an awesome thing and not the condemning type. Peace :-)

      learn about veganism and maybe youll be a "crazy vegan" too lmao its way more than animal abuse, its about stopping humans from going extinct or engaging in climate wars. which is more important than your precious feelings + meal preference... by far. trust me, no one is demonizing you. LOL

It's so bad, I've been trying to change it recently but it is so hard to eat breakfast outside of my room in a 'dead' sharehouse. Wanting to incorporate morning walks or something similar - but it is too cold to get out of bed that early.

    I realize that you are on a break from TH-cam for this season. But this is my first time watching this video. One of the things that I'm having an issue with is finding a good and effective natural deodorant. I'd really like to know if you still use the one that you said you make in this video or if you have a good recommendation? I've gone through so many and it's been a disappointment. Also I'm glad that you have a vegan Nutella. That looks really good.

    I'm not being mean and I love this video. It is refreshing and I love your positive vibrations. I'm just curious, do you have a day job? I tried drinking water like that in the morning and I couldn't make it to work. I had to pull off the freeway and find a gas station because my bladder was so full, plus after I get to work, if I drink water like that, I have to go about every 25 minutes. Meetings are out of the question. I'm just curious because I've seen so many vegan videos where it seems like the workout, juicing and meal prep take up the whole morning and I don't see anyone addressing people that have businesses to go to or a job. Nobody's going to work, but somehow, all that healthy food happens to be in the house. Let me repeat, I love your video and I'm taking notes, but what if you're short on time, can't hold straight water and have to get out of the house, into the traffic and off to work? Add dropping off children? This is a real life question for the average woman in America?

    • @isabelladabrowska6804
      @isabelladabrowska6804 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      teflo2 for the water .... I was the same and I thought I'd never get used to it. I had to work my way up to that much water in the morning. If I had to drive to work each day I'm not so sure my bladder would let me without stopping to go. Have you tried drinking 8 oz just for the wake up? Then drink more after you arrive at work ? I always feel like I have the tiniest bladder. I have noticed the more I drink water the more I'm getting used to it and don't have that urgency I did when I first started. For routine when working...I have to keep things easy. I don't like meal prep because I cannot eat food that is prepared and already sitting. That's just me. I stay raw to keep it simple. Lots of smoothies. I use frozen blueberries. I freeze the spinach and bananas right away. All that goes in a nutribullet with chia and flax seeds, raw cacao powder, and plant milk. Easy and done. You can drink that while getting ready or even driving to work. And lunch n dinner I do the same or eat fruits or salad.

    • @c.s.1227
      @c.s.1227 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I started drinking a gallon everyday about two months ago. I thought after a couple weeks my bladder will adjust.. but it hasn't lol! I just started an hour and half commute to work and I was not prepared for the wrath of my bladder the first couple mornings lol. I've learned to leave water by my bed and drink a couple of cups as soon as I wake up in the a.m., that way I have time to empty my bladder two or three times before my drive. Other than that, my coworkers just have to deal with my journey to staying hydrated. No shame lol

    • @teflo2
      @teflo2 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Camarra Smith Yeah, I was told that my bladder would adjust. It never happened. I do the same thing in the morning, just a few sips of water. I love water now, but not when I have meetings, have a lot of errands to run, at a movie or a concert. It's an ideal, but not always practical.

    • @teflo2
      @teflo2 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Isabella Mizrahi Eating isn't a problem except that smoothies only last me a hour or so into the work day, then I'm hungry again, so I need more solid food in the morning to concentrate and make it through long meetings. I try to drink as little water as I can into the morning, now that I know my bladder. Having to go in the middle of rush hour traffic just doesn't work for me. I have to start my water drinking when I know that I can go without disrupting anything. It's just real life.

    • @isabelladabrowska6804
      @isabelladabrowska6804 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      teflo2 I could not drink water like that either if I had to commute. I have gotten a lot better with getting up all night after a full day of water, but some moments it hits suddenly. Always at the worst times.
