    love the included breaks and stretches! i recently gave myself carpal tunnel from drawing too much without them and it’s a total bummer, but seeing other people’s strategies is really helpful for reframing my workflow to avoid it in the future. also have the same pink keyboard and mouse! so cute, thank you for sharing this video!

    Honestly, I love how your cozy setup sort of matches your art which is so friendly, sweet and… cozy! Really fun video of your routine. I’ve stopped writing my morning to-do lists for some reason (who knows why😂) but you’ve inspired me to start writing them up again 🙏🏻✨

    GOSH the window views you have are amazing!!!!! Also, I'm new to your channel but I really appreciate how much work you put into your content (the motion graphics, posting your phone backgrounds in mockups, the branding - everything!). I know that takes a ton of extra time & it shows how skilled you are! Rock on.

    This is definitely my dream job, I feel horrible that no one around me supports me and trust that I can make a living off of art, and I feel forced in my studies. Current plan is to finish my studies as a chemist, get things stable and study art on the side

    I think this is my first time watching one of your videos and I’m so glad it came up in my TH-cam recommendations! Your workspace is so cozy and lovely, and the view(s) you have outside are wonderful! Thanks for sharing your day with us 😊 It was inspiring and motivating to see how much you got done, and so early in the day. I’m a night owl, so I get the bulk of my artwork done starting in the afternoon and working late into the evening 😅

I used it for all the things digital art, video editing, gaming and so on. I too am a morning person as well.

    I'm really impressed at your small break schedule! I always say that I'll have a mini break after 30 to 45 min of working, but in the end I spend hours infront of the PC working non-stop and when I get out of it my neck usually hurts because I didn't realize the uncomfy position I was in for hours 😂 How are you able to stop working?!

    i love the vibe! It is so chill. The window view is so peaceful and the animations are adorable! But I think a lower and maybe warm voice would fit the vibe more. I don't mean to judge because your voice is really beautiful (much more than mine). But if you want, you can adjust the voice tone to make it warmer. Send you lots of loveeee

    Lovely video and sharing, Mimi. Thanks again for all you do to create, produce and share these with us. They're incredibly valuable. Like having a friend I can dial up any hour of the day or night and ask my questions and get exactly the answers I need in a truly helpful way, and be able to review if I forget something. I will probably watch old TV shows and movies I've seen a million times in the background, so it's not new, just soothing and amusing, therefore, my attention can easily be divided between that and my art project. I absolutely need to figure out a daily schedule to base from. That was on my mind this morning. You have the best ideas and tips. Bright blessings.

    You need to change your posture when you draw having your neck down is not sustainable. Keep the spine neutral lean over your tablet by bending at the hips to use your core muscles I would suggest getting a art table that can be tilted so you can rest your arms and a better chair with adjustable height. I also recommend getting the book it's not carpletunnel by suparna Damany
