a digital diary where I‘m talking about my current struggles, going through a separation and how I try to find ways to take my power back.
your videos feel like receiving beautiful hand-written letters from a friend - I look forwards to your friday uploads now!
You don’t know how much that motivates me 🥰🙏 I’m so happy that you feel that way ✍️ and I‘m always very happy to read your comments 🌸 hope you‘ll have a wonderful weekend 🌈
Loved this so much 💓 had to watch it a second time. And thank you for reminding me to rewatch “how to cook your life” 🥘 such a great movie!
I adore the way you make your videos, they are a thing of beauty. Singing out loud is so liberating and is perfect for raising our vibration to attract greater things. I feel having your vidoes to watch and listen to is a gift rom the universe. Keep well beautiful spirit. Just try and remember, when your feeling 'blue' that it will pass sure as the sun shall shine. x
Oh Jason 🥹🥰 what wonderful words… like balm for my soul 💞🦋 I know, you know what you’re talking about… you’ve been on this journey of inspiring others with your videos and story for a little longer than me… and I admire you so much for that… your consistency and showing up for yourself and others… that’s so precious 🙏
your last sentence reminded me of the last scene in Harold and Maude, where he drives his hearse over the cliffs.. and after the song “troubles” he starts playing the banjo and… “If you want to sing out, sing out!” … cause there’s a million things to be, right?
Thank you for being you Jason 🌈🕊️💞
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Hi Nastja, Apologies for the late reply, I've not had internet since last Friday. Thank you, that means so much. 🤗x
Ich liebe dieses Video!❤Das ist melancholisch, aber auch lebensbejaend. Es ist sooo farbenfroh. Und ich freue mich so sehr, dich wieder singen zu hören!❤❤❤
🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙
Liebe Nastja, ich bin sehr froh darüber, dich im Netz wiedergefunden zu haben. Es macht mich glücklich, deine Filme zu sehen, es ist als wären wir dabei im Gespräch. Es ist so wunderbar, jemanden zu finden, der bei allem Kummer und allen auch schweren Sorgen die Fähigkeit behält, Schönes zu sehen und zu genießen. Ich danke dir für jede Anregung. Und wo finde ich jetzt ein Herzen-Emoj? Das sollte noch folgen, dann also in Gedanken: einen HERZlichen Gruß für dich!
@@AdeleWedel ach Heidilein 🥰 was für ein herzerwärmender Kommentar… 🥹 auch ganz ohne Herzemoji 😅 habe mich riesig über deine Worte gefreut und bin ganz gerührt… ich hoffe wir sehen uns bald wieder, wenn wir mit Mama mal nach Berlin kommen. Dann melden wir uns bei dir! Ganz dicke Umarmung an dich 💞🌈🦋🦄
As an antenna conducts the swirling frequencies to a radio, your channel is harvesting the nutrition that all of us in your loyal tribe desire to shower upon you. There are hundreds of us now. Most don’t comment but they feel it too. All of us eat at your table with deep heartfelt appreciation for what you cook each time. Tune in, please, to the sustenance we transmit to you.
You know, you’re a poet Dave… your comments are poetry 💞 I think that has rather to do your ability to see the beauty and magic in things.. not so much with me.. I just feel lucky to be surrounded by such amazing people like you here 🤗
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby You are kind, but the compliment still stands. You are doing something amazing and all of us can see it. Don't ever stop.
@@humbleviewpoint your support means so much to me 🤗 really: thank you for being so kind and supportive 🥹
Looks like you had a fantastic day! Yes, clean the slate of everything with the wrong vibration.
@@ManifestingHotStuff exactly 💎 especially when we have to deal with heavy and low vibe stuff already…
❤
Reading my book in the park brings me joy and makes me feel fulfilled, amazing video!
That‘s beautiful Ashley 📖🌳 I haven’t done that in a while… reading in nature is so soothing 😌 also thank you so much for for watching til the end and reaching out to me 🙏🌈🩵
You're doing so great moving on and so much ahead of me. I am at the beginning stages of separation and I am procrastinating too much. I don't want to get out of bed, I stopped making art and just prefer to watch TV all day. Life is wasting away as I'm getting ready to turn 41 at the end of this month. But something is brewing in me to have the desire to start over in a more affordable city. I've lived in Los Angeles all my life and the unaffordability here is crippling. So my goal in the coming months is to save money, stay in an Airbnb in the city I want to move to. Find work, then find an apartment for rent. Then ship my car and then fly with my two little dogs to the new city and have a fresh start in life. It's so daunting to start over, but it's exciting too. I wish you the best and look forward to your progress. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing that with me… I am really in a similar situation. And I can totally understand that feeling of numbness and stagnation. I mean, my videos are just a mosaic of the most inspiring moments that I captured. But there are lots of moments in between where I feel so exhausted and similar to what you described. I can also relate so well to the apartment problem. Here it is also so expensive. And everything I applied for I got rejected. I guess because I’m a single woman with a child. Lots of landlords don’t like children and animals. But I am a firm believer that everything has its time and place. We have to keep our faith up and focus on what we want to invite into our lives. I really try deliberately not to focus on the rejections and negative vibes right now. I’m sending you lots of hopeful and uplifting energy. I know it will all work out for you 🍀🦋 We will transform this energy, we will use it as a fuel to start something new and even better. Sending you a big hug “Kitty” 🐱☺️🤗
I See you! I'm there too. But please don't see it like a race (like you are ahead of me). It's not a race where someone wins and everybody else loses. Everyone should win. We all have whatl it needs. And If you need time - take it! Don't pressure yourself about your art. It will come to you! I swear! Especially in struggling times. Start over when you are ready! But as you are in the US it's seems much harder to Europeans like us who at least do not not have to struggle about basic health care and basic labour rights so I admire your courage very much! Best!
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby thank you so much for your kind words and uplifting pep talk. I am sorry these landlords are discriminatory in your neck of the woods as well. I will combat this problem by trying my best to move to an unpopular small city, with less competition for renting an apartment. Another thing I will do to set myself apart is offer to pay six months rent ahead of time. This is doable in more affordable cities and towns, but definitely not in LA. I'm just happy that the US has so many places to live for practically every budget. So today, I am hopeful and even a little anxious. I am wishing for you and your son to find your perfect place to call home as well. Thanks so much for your beautiful content and for sharing your story with us. ❤️
@@Kunstmann_Film hi Robert thanks so much for your uplifting message and encouragement. I am going to try my best to not feel guilty about not making art. But today I feel a bit hopeful and look forward to finishing up a couple of pieces, starting tomorrow. Yes it's very hard to live in the US without adequate healthcare. My younger sister is upper middle class and paid for her cancer treatments with cash. She was almost going to let a crook doctor remove her entire thyroid instead of just one side because he wanted to make money off of her. But I am glad she got a second opinion and now she doesn't have to take medication for the rest of her life, to stay alive. A lot of people here in the US prefer to be poor because you get free healthcare, as well as a monthly grocery allowance known as EBT. Some people are also lucky enough to get a subsidized housing voucher where you only pay 30% of the rent. But all of that requires people to stay very poor. My ex used to pay $400+ a month for health insurance he couldn't even use because it was impossible to make an appointment to visit his doctor. But when I fell, broke my ribs and collapsed my lungs, I didn't have to pay the $250,000 bill. That would cripple me even more, on top of my predatory student loan debt. Again thank you so much for your words of encouragement and kindness. I wish you the best of luck in your progress towards a better life without the ex.
@@Kitty-ig4yh I‘m rooting for you Kitty🙏✨💞 your plan sounds really promising and you are devoted. Therefore it will all work out 🍀 I know it! As for me: I have to find something in the small town where I live right now due to several reasons. But I will also go alternative ways.. and I know it will fall into place 🌈 have a beautiful week ☀️🦋🦄
Seeing your soul smile while you’re with your friend(s) singing in sync, in these moments of shared energy is so lovely and warms my heart❣️
Nelly Darling 💞🦋🌈 I miss you! Haven’t had a quite moment to listen to your vms yet… have been thinking of you and Travis a lot…🍀
Que bonita canción y me encantan tus video ❤
gracias querida Simona 🥰🌈🦋
I'm on a break just now and went into that break in a rather bad mood. But you gave me a lot of strength with your words already and the time off helped to evaluate. And: You nailed it! Cooking and working with your hands is so important! I cooked for my loved ones (dicing and slicing and frying and cooking) almost every day and they enjoyed it. Also Self care and activities that make you feel better in the end even if it seems like work at first... can be so rewarding. Also: Beautiful pictures again! You inspire me to find new angles and perspectives! Have a great time! R
Das freut mich so sehr lieber Robert 🙏😊 es hört sich danach an, dass du gerade eine richtig schöne Zeit hattest und hast 🧡 so schön, dass du andere bekochst :) die Glücklichen ☺️ ich hatte es noch nicht geschafft, auf deine E-Mail zu antworten. Aber wie krass, dass du Jim Avignon getroffen hast! War das Zufall? Ganz liebe Grüße von mir 🌸
You are such a present for mr I live the same transformation as you in a différent way,but I do really feel ,that I have to let go the thing Who don't arase me,big Kiss and Icam in gratitude to discover you ❤❤❤
Thank you sweet Alouna 🙏🦋💓 I just realized there is an angel number in your name that has been following me lately… I heard it stands for new beginnings and guidance 🍀 thank you for sending me this little sign ☺️ we will stay strong, we will evolve and heal because we’re being guided Alouna 💞 thank you for being here 🤗
love the colorful tea at the end.
@@ReensaraiArtbyReenaS it’s called butterfly pea tea 🦋 🫖 it’s actually very healthy. And there are also rose petals, lavender and chrysanthemums in it. I love it 😍
HA! Lovely video. Beautiful voice. Great advice. Exquisite images. Haunting tone….blue. One day - we will hear you - Lifted in the Pure Delight of Self. And there will be no turning back🙏😉. 💚+💎, -V
@@virginiavilas oh Virginia… 🥹 you are the sweetest… I‘ll be thinking of your beautiful words in blue times… 🩵 hope you’ll have a wonderful weekend and sending you a big warm hug 🫂🌈🩷🧚♀️
what a lovely voice!
@@ReensaraiArtbyReenaS thank you so much ☺️💓
good to see you. I love self care treats....warm epsom salt baths...buying books...yogurt with fresh fruits. take care my friend.
So good to see you too Tina 🤗🥰 these are some great self-care habits which I also really enjoy… gonna make myself my matcha 🍵 now… (which is my favorite 😅… goes without saying 😅). Have a lovely my friend 💞
taking up space even if that creating in a space that has not had art...creating on paper in boxes that would otherwise be thrown in recycle bin.. it is giving what is rejected another life.
@@ReensaraiArtbyReenaS wow… that’s powerful 💓 “giving that rejected” another life… that’s magical ✨ because it’s transformative… and reviving… I love that! It also reminds me in a way of cooking with “forgotten vegetables” 🥗 parts of the vegetable we might actually thrown away…
What country is this? You have a lovely soothing voice. Taking my power back means, walking around with confidence & smiling at strangers. Even when I feel like I need to be alone, on a deserted island, for a week.
Thank you so much DeeDee 😊💞 the country is Germany 🙃 it has some beautiful spots ☺️
how you‘re taking your power back is actually extremely powerful - I think. I do too sometimes when I‘m walking through the streets. Just smiling at strangers… especially when someone looks sad… and maybe smiles back.. that is so powerful 🌈 thank you for reminding me of that 🙏🌸🦄
they sound like humming birds!
Haha 😅 I think they are swifts or swallows though 🩵
Taking my Power back? Maybe its by realizing that I was the one who gave it away.. perhaps it was off balanced and I was not strong enough... and I am the one who holds it or has to maintain this wealth and spirit inside. It does gets tiring when Love is not reciprocated, appreciated, or valued. Loved your singing... you have such a beautiful spirit and voice... and the video was amazing Nastja. You did read my mind with relatiosnhips.. and was thinking... this week... yeah I would be lusting over the Great Cook Cooking over the bikini model for maybe a future partner! lol Blessings 🙂
That‘s such an important insight Edward… I‘m actually on the same path. Realizing we have that strength within ourselves is so healing 🦋 let’s continue on this journey 🌈 sending warm blessings to you 🌱
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Thank you... I think it scares some people when they experience being shown Genuine Pure Love when most of thier life they seemed to have to the active force of positivity around them..... and when we have been betrayed they wonder if the feeling they had was real or not..maybe it was for a moment.. and them or us become fickle and scared... but without that Love inside life seem dead. So getting that Power def requires that LOVE inside us.. and perhaps an even more important ingredient? And yet maybe even those who don't love are just practice for us to see its importance.🙂
@@lovelearnandgrow2853 thank you for being so open and honest Edward. I think often we search for our self in another person or in their image. And I don’t take anything personal because I know we are all on our own journey and have our own story.🍀
I am loving your videos. Could you tell me what book you are reading? I am always interested in what other people are reading?
And I think I take my power most when I do yoga. I never feel more powerful than when I am in a warrior or tree post. No matter how I am feeling yoga always makes it better
I‘m so glad Lisa 🙏🥰 thank you so much… in this video I‘m actually reading the book of a friend. His name is Frank Berzbach and the book is in German. The title translates as „the art of living a creative life“ :). I‘m not sure if it exists in English though … ☺️
It doesn't seem to and I don't speak German. I saw some English subheading and didn't examine the fine print!!! Im sure it is wonderful
This is strange. I felt how lonely I'm seeing you are enjoying such a beautiful few hours with your friend. But it's okay, I don't like to add more trouble to my life. New people means new troubles. I'm not ready for that yet. I suffered enough and I'm totally enough for myself. "Yes , I'm enough" .
Life has to move forward. Everything has its time and everything ends. So separation is hard because "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart" 🫀. I went through that scene a lot. Still it's hard to control emotions but I'm little bit better in goodbye's now.
As always Nat you threw some gold dust on my soul. Thank you for making me shining 🌟. I wish God will see this everything and add some more calmness, happiness and healthiness to your life ❤. Such a amazing friend. You taught me that distance or appearances in the real world will never be a barrier to touching someone's heart. ❤🥹
Izza… 🧡 I can totally get that feeling… when we are going through something ourselves and then we see other people enjoying themselves, that might add to our feeling of loneliness. I know that very well… and it’s good not to push that feeling away, but to acknowledge it. So thank you so much for your honesty here. And at the same time: thank you so much for being able to feel happy for me and to tell me all those incredibly kind and heartfelt things, that make me smile so much 🥹💞 there is a lot of depth in your heart and soul, that can be even felt from a distance. Sometimes we need to focus on ourselves, be careful who we surround ourselves with, in order to heal and to attract what we really need and deserve. And you are doing just that, I believe 🌈🍀 As always: sending you a big warm hug 🫂 wishing you a weekend full of bliss ✨💖✨
@@EmbraceYourselfBabyI don't know how to express my gratitude and appreciate your every little effort, Nat. Forgive me. I'm giving nothing to you, yet you are always so nice and lovely to me. You'll never know how much those little lovely comments affect my soul. This universe is amazing, and I can feel the love and strength you are sending to me, Nat. I'm so, so happy that I found a friend here whom I can call my "best." ☺️❤️. STAY SAFE! STAY HAPPY! STAY HEALTHY! . 🤗🌟
@@vip_izzathank truly Izza 🙏🫂 you have to know that your comments are very dear to me and they inspire and motivate me very much. I am definitely receiving something very important back here that lets me know that my efforts aren’t in vain. I am grateful that the energy I‘m sending out into this tube could reach you and give you a little bit of faith in the little things again 🌈 I‘m rooting for you from afar and sending you lots of heartfelt energy ✨🧚♀️💞
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Nat, I'm so happy to hear that I can make you smile. It means a lot to me. I always try to spread joy by doing the little things. Your channel is a bright spot in my day, and seeing you happy make me happy too. These are my true feelings, no fakery here. ✨❤️
@@vip_izza that’s something really powerful: bringing joy to other people with the “little things”. I hope you can remind yourself in the dark times that you are capable of spreading that joy within and around you Izza 🌈🦋🦄✨
ahh my guitar i have not played in a decade.
@@ReensaraiArtbyReenaS so I it’s about time again, right? 😃 🎸🎶💞
Hi🌷, Talking about cooking as a means of mindfulness is very inspiring😇. You are doing well👌. Happy for you💙. If you reach the other side, send us a dove🕊 so we know there is hope for us too🙈.
@@user-xh5fm5yt4f I’m really glad that you got inspired by that 🥗🙏💞
and thank you so much for wishing me well 🤗 I hope you are well, too and don’t lose hope in these times of adversity… 🕊️
@@EmbraceYourselfBaby Thanks
Hi , Do you own a personal website ?
@@HH-zb5ul hi back to you. No I don’t have a personal website. Not yet at least…
