Couple things…you owe yourself a huge thank you for being the strong, wise, and gracious woman you are. Movement is great for mental health and processing- especially bilateral movement (like walking) cause it stimulates both sides of your brain. Lastly, if you’re not familiar with Brene Brown and the work she’s done on shame, I highly suggest you check her out. Shame is usually a larger part of the pain and struggle we feel as humans, but we can’t always identify it or where it stems. You’re not a burden. In fact, I’d say many of us think of you as gift, Michel.
I totally concur, however I also have lupus and other autoimmune conditions - one has to choose that which they devote their spoons to (it’s a constant negotiation) as any energy expenditure can set those conditions backward. Our bodies are constantly unleashing a war on us, so that leaves them unable to focus on cell recovery post exercise. Really love and respect your insight and wisdom however. You’re a wonderful human and your knowledge is so appreciated❤️💕💞🥰
Yeah, I can’t say I understand what it is to have condition like that so I know it’s maybe a narrower suggestion. My heart really goes out to anyone who deals with emotional turmoil AND a chronic physical condition. You are incredible people. I hope you’re gentle with yourselves.
@@taragetter thanks Tara:) it can definitely be challenging to juggle. I think it’s the awareness that although something may set you back physically and be an absolute battle to push through ..... it’s healthier for ones mental health to do so, in order to remain grounded and in touch with one’s self:). It certainly perpetuates a slippery slope of boom and bust though. Sending you a tonne of love from the land of kiwis🥰❤️
I like the candle on the books and the vase on the mirror as you last showed it! Looks very well styled and balanced. And I love the Sezan piece you chose. I just bought my first two pieces from them, and I’m in love with their details and quality. Wishing you lots of healing and peace during this time 🌸☀️🥰
It’s okay to not have the capacity to unpack your luggage or push yourself to go do social things. Michel, you went through more trauma than I think sometimes you even recognize. It’s okay to feel drained and unsocial and tired. It’s normal and would actually be abnormal if you weren’t all of those things right now. Work if you have to, but take it slow and just day by day for awhile. Things aren’t going to get better in a flash, not even in a year could someone heal from ALL of that (my personal opinion). We are all rooting for you! ❤️
Stopped watching what I was as soon as this popped up because I need to make sure our girl is ok. I want to give her a big hug!! Sending a virtual one Michel!! Xoxo
Maybe next time instead of doing a full workout when exhibiting just do a light yoga session, that way you can stretch and relax your body with also so quite time to just think🤷♀️
I found out yesterday that I have a terminal illness and was on the phone letting someone know when I got the notification that you were on here. I don't want this to sound bad but the distraction is so welcome. I was hoping that worrying about someone else would help and it did you for a minute. Happy that you're home. Hi Max.
@@ruthgoddard6539 thank you for the kind words. I think I'm still in shock. Crying one second and staring at nothing the next. Praying. It's been an eventful 60 years though. Thank you again dear.
Is it possible that all the travel you have had is contributing to your physical and emotional state? Just watching all your travel and hearing about upcoming touring makes me wonder if this is all too much.
Hi Michel, I know your channel is a real time, but have you ever considered filming some non-vlog content that you could release when you need a break. Just a suggestion 💕
Emotional trauma= Absolute exhaustion, but it’s so much better to let it out vs your internalizing it (which is like swallowing poison)☠️😬 So although you’re trying to release it b/c YOU are your priority, you’re experiencing something new by processing this in a healthy way 💓💯 Soooo many people delay unpacking their suitcase, etc when tired: Everyone needs a vacation after a vacation.. Even though it wasn’t a fun vacay by any means! But there was truth and joy by seeing your friends and facing the “old” Michel 💓 Super proud of you 💯 Sending love & Blessings 😘
I think it is important to remember and to remind yourself that you have survived 100% of your worst days. It is okay to stop, take a breath and just regroup. I assure you that not everything must be done immediately. You got this!
I know it’s hard with your job, but it would be healthy for you NOT to be thinking so much about yourself and how you are feeling each hour of the day. Considering what you went through I understand you need to process it and it will take a long while to do. What you also need is something that will take you above and “out” of yourself and stop you from thinking about “you”. Hope that makes sense.
Thanks for taking us along on your journey. 🙂 I like the candle on the books and the vase on nothing. It looks ok on the mirror but I think it looked better on nothing. I kind of feel like the whole thing is still missing something though. Maybe you need a plant, flowers, or some kind of foliage there, too. 🤷🏻♀️ …just my thoughts. 🙂 Have a great weekend!
I hope you realise your impact!! These videos are so wonderful and comforting to me. Seeing you go through tough times is sad but you continue to have a beautiful, positive attitude. I appreciate you and all your hard work! You deserve every good thing that is coming your way. I wish you a great week, keep being you ❤️
Thank you for saying this 😭 sometimes I feel silly or like I’m oversharing, so to hear that some find comfort in it really encourages me 🤍 sending you so much love
I love this comment roasty toasty. I think she needs to hear it more that she has a huge impact on me and I'm sure tons of people. She's my favorite TH-camr and I really hope she don't change because she always makes my day. I always listen to her whenever I walk my dogs after a long day at work it just helps me relax even though I'm still going and walking LOL. (Edit) editing this now I mean everybody changes but I hope that she knows that she's not oversharing at least in my opinion. She makes my day and makes me happy she's amazing and there's so much about her that I would love to be like. That's why I love to hear her life and love to hear her. Because she is so strong and very wise
I do exactly the same thing.... I apologize anytime I need support or have a feeling I can't suppress, and I over-thank people for 'allowing me' to cry, to talk, to be vulnerable.... I have started saying things like "Thank you for making me feel safe enough to be vulnerable" or "Thank you for holding space for me" or just "Thank you for being such a good friend" instead, so that I still feel I'm making it clear that I appreciated the person and don't take them listening to me, and comforting me for granted, but I'm not thanking them for just 'allowing me' the be human.
Love this so much and I am so obsessed with your content! Thank you for being such a light in the world! Thank you for being so authentic and vulnerable with us! All your vlogs are so calming, relaxing, and entertaining! I hope you've had a good day so far! Your videos are also so comforting and homey which I love so much! Ilysm and happy Saturday!!
Did you contact the rental car company to see if they had the sunglasses? I've left stuff in cars and motels during travels and have gotten them mailed to me.
Hey Michel, it is wonderful seeing you with a little bit more of your natural aliveness back. 🥰Even though the process of healing the open wounds will probably be coming and going in waves. Worse days, better days. I love that you are mindful about taking it one day at a time or even one step or an hour at the time. I am looking forward you sharing what will be helping you along this path. When I was going through the aftermath of trauma I used to go to gym nearly every day because I used to hold up hurt and painful emotions coming from betrayal in my body and refusing to feel them until I pushed myself physically into discomfort and challenge myself physically that way. I would workout hard enough for it to be challenging and then my body would stop „holding it up“ because it was too much to hold. I would cry in the middle of the gym and really treating it more as my space to heal than a gym in some way (that said at that time I was going into a smaller gym and there weren´t as many people witnessing my process of healing). It really helped me tremendously. I would run on a treadmill for the first 15min to warm up just focusing on the running and letting all the feelings and thoughts pass and slowly after coming back again and again they started changing, becoming more peaceful, less painful. I realized it at one instance when I actually (for the first time) thought during my 15min run about something else. So I can personally highly reccommend working out while dealing with trauma especially as you´ve said in the last video that you store the emotions in your body as well. It can be interesting thing to support you and if not you will find other things. You are a wise woman. Sending you TLC from Prague in the Czech Republic. 💕
Thank you for this comment 🤍 I’m so glad you’ve seen positive effects from movement! I’m going to keep experimenting to see what my body likes. Sending you so much love!
Hey Michel♥️ you can actually contact the car rental company and they may have your sunglasses. Many ppl leave phones, keys, sunglasses, etc, so they typically have a lost and found (maybe on their site too).
Woke up feeling really emotionally drained as well + the seasonal blues coming out of the woodwork as the past couple of days here in Colorado have been cold and gloomy & rainy/misty and I feel my soul starting to prepare for my seasonal depression that comes with winter each year. Seeing your videos always seems to make me feel like I have a friend who understands. Taking time to do the things I love today…you should too
I have one more thing to say to you my dear.... You help some of us more than we help you. Also I don't ever want to hear you say you are a burden to anyone and if someone tells you that I have a solution....it's called delete and block. The only reason you would be a burden to someone is if they let you be and it goes both ways so if you're a burden they don't have to watch and that's not your problem or fault. When I read that back it made sense to me....but then again after yesterday's news I'm not sure if or how anything makes sense.... sending hugs my dear.
I can't say I know what you're going thru but I do know time and patience heals all. Please be gentle with yourself because you've gone thru A LOT and you've done so much to heal. ❤️ Side note, I adsolutely love how you put extra effort in your gifts and showing people that you care about them through little gestures. I'm the same way..gift giving is my love language and I love to make gifts personalized and thoughtful.
I'm so happy to see a new vlog of yours Michel! My dog passed away yesterday and I really needed your company, I know it's hard, but sharing your pain and being real also helps others so much 💜
One end needs a little more height! Maybe another book and no stool, just the mirror! With that being said, hang in there , things can only move up!! And you do not have to get permission for being human!
Awww Michel. Sending you so much love and warm hugs 🫂 people pointing things out can definitely feel overwhelming. Hoping you can take what feels your heart can or is willing to be with. I feel a lot of care for where you are at and feeling protective of you 💚
OMG,,, I finally got a chance to try magic spoon ,the choc kind...... Like cocoa puffs , BUT like cocoa puffs on Christmas Morning or What ever Holiday you celebrate. When your 6 and you just know Santa left you everything you asked for ,THAT kinda cocoa puffs,🥰🥰🥰🥰 I had to come back like you first kiss kinda cocoa puffs. Or when you are snuggling with that special someone kind of 😋
Try the candle on books on one side. (The candle needs the stack of books.) Then place your pottery vase with greenery and a smaller similar pottery vase without greenery next to it on the other side. You could put them on a wooden tray. Don’t think you need the mirror base.
I think people are not accustomed to genuinely nice, polite and thoughtful people. I have faith that you are going to get pass all of this and your star is going to shine so bright that they'll find ways to criticize that too.🥰
I love how real and genuine you are! That is what you’re doing right girl! Thank you for being you and inspiring others. I am praying that you can heal and start feeling fully free and joyful.
She is and she was. She's even in a whole new relationship. And lets all extend her some grace any normal person would be hurt in a situation like this. Her divorce was only a year ago and even the ending of their union was at ultra speed. A little over a year ago she, thought she was happily married to a great guy... So all of this isn't THAT long ago. And not only did he cheat on her she now recently had to learn he Cheated with multiple women and is even an S offender. That would knock anyone back months back in their healing journey. Its very easy to judge but have some compasion because if you are objective you can tell she is really trying to close that chapter. And she is way to sweet, she kept placing some of the blame on herself so in a weird way I am happy she get all this new information about her ex husband. I got the feeling form watching her first divorce video that she was placing to much blame on herself. Mind you at that time the situation seemed less extreme, it was already clear to me based on what she explainend and how she did it she may have been naive or could've spoken up sooner but she did nothing wrong. Now that she knows all of this she can at least know for sure it was nothing that she did he just has lots of issues and things would've went fairly simmilar with any women he would've married. She will get to that point sooner or later and she will feel so much lighter. God did her the biggest favor . So for now let the girl be !
I do the same exact thing with thanking people. Or saying sorry all the time. Like even getting Starbucks and they forget to give me a straw, I say “Oh can I get a straw. Sorry!” My sister always says, what are you sorry for?? She gets on me about it. So that was a good reminder for myself. Thank you.
When you're feeling empty sometimes the best self care is to care for someone else Like find something nice to do to bring a smile to someone else's face For me that's actually one of the satisfying and quickest ways to fuel up ❤️
So glad that you’re back home. I know this sounds dumb, but sometimes if I’m overwhelmed I literally will do a whole body “shake off”. The silliness of trying to shake something horrible off, makes me laugh a little and seems to actually help. In your case, the burden is not yours to carry. Just shake it off back on him. You have ZERO blame in this, so no need to help him carry HIS burden. Also, on a lighter side, I was so glad to see you listening to your body and noticing what makes it feel better or worse. Because sometimes things that make logical sense - like exercising - may not be what your body is ready for yet.. There have been people who forced themselves to workout too soon after having Covid and ended up with long Covid. So I love the lesson that you are teaching people, which is to listen to your body. I’m not saying that staying in bed forever is good, but just to ease back into things the way you are doing is great! We are all here because we support and Love you so much! Thank YOU for sharing your life with us. It truly does help us knowing that we can all get through bad things.
I’ll try shaking it off physically!😂🤍 I love that idea. And thank you for the kindness, I’m still trying to learn to “hear” my body but I think I’m getting better at it🥰
wow Michel, while watching your videos/ following your Instagram I actually noticed that you're often using this phrase and I was a bit surprised/ couldn't understand why you use it because you really don't owe anyone anything, if anyone is not okay with what you're doing then they're free to go :) sending hugs
Hi Michel, The last option of those two pieces displayed is the best from my point of view, praying that all will be well with you mentally, physically, and health-wise, you are a mighty woman of God and a champion and will overcome any obstacle, stay spiritually strong, remember God is by your side and your viewers 😊🙏
Thank you for being honest. Your hope and strength is in Christ. He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds. Christ Himself and Christ through other people can heal and restore you. You may not see or feel it now but God is able to make all things work together for good to those who love Him. I have been a Christian for over 40 years and I have been through trials and in the worst of them the waters did not overflow and my soul found rest in God alone. We are created to be worshippers and are only as satisfied as we are in Him. Psalm 147:3, Romans8:28;Isaiah 43:3. ❤Isaiah 40:27-31. He will not fail you or forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:8
Wow, I feel like I’m your friend who is walking through this journey with you. We are rooting for you and we wish you the best. Trauma is no easy or painless, but may God encourage you and strengthen you throughout every step if this Journey!
In my opinion, I find your TV more aesthetically pleasing than the canvas cover. Sorry, I know you spent a lot of time creating it. I liked the candle on the books.
Personally, I don't see thanking people like that as an issue necessarily. It acknowledges them. I always think thanking them is better than apologizing
I saw that you are not yet familiar with the work of Brene Brown. I think you are going to love her work on authenticity and vulnerability. Thank you for helping others by sharing your journey.
I enjoy your videos and thanks for being open and sharing your experiences. Just a side note: please be careful with Oatly oat milk because there has been a recent recall on it.
I also felt like sleeping all day, but had to do life things which in hindsight was better for me. Getting more sleep than normal at night was helpful but still doing life stuff I needed to, hope you find your thrive groove!
I’m so sorry you’re going through so much. I know it all feels horrible right now but you’re strong and you’ll get through it with your friends and family at your side. Sending you all the positive thoughts I can. As for your styling question I love how it was when you left it with the candle on the books and the vase on the mirror. But maybe you could add one more thing beside the vase/mirror for an odd number? A small jar, a little succulent, a tiny vintage picture frame, some cute vintage find? Your style is always so great!
I think you may have been hacked. I got a message that I had won a prize from you and I was to telegram someone. I think this is a scam and didn't do as the message said. Hope it doesn't cause you any problems!
If u feel physically and mentally drained try a Thai oil body massage it if you like massages. It's my go to when I am burnt out and that seems to help me with fatigue.
Michel, take care of yourself yes but don’t give any more of yourself to that awful man! You are blessed I so many ways. I like the candle on the books & the vase on the mirror. 👍🏻
Hey!!! Proud of you. I’d probably put the stool a little behind the vase on the right and use it for something small like essential oils or perfumes?? ¨̮ the tapestry looks amazing!
A wise person once told me that when struggling with grief and overwhelm and exhaustion and looking at the pile of things that need doing to give yourself grace and just do the next thing. You don’t have to do it all. Just the next thing. And give yourself more grace. And ask for help - people want to help but they don’t usually know what will actually be helpful to you. Asking for help is not burdening them - if they can’t do it they’ll tell you. But the people who love you are most likely wishing they could make it all better for you and it would give them joy to help you.
Last option. Books under candle and nothing under the vase. Ugh I just got a box of 4 sweaters from Sézane and returning all of them. Over the past 5 years I think I’ve returned more than I’ve kept. Nothing fits me quite right. As a short girl with bum and hips French clothes don’t fit well.
Hi Michel, I just want to say you strong woman, it normal to feel the way after such a public yet personal drama set in your life. As I have mentionned before despite your struggles I think your one of the most genuine light and positive youtuber there is on TH-cam period! But here a tip: from someone who been true chronic trauma because of circumstances and all for the past 10 yrs and who litterally just had a trauma filled 48h this week. The fatigue is normal and will stay for a while because such emotional and mental personal trauma isnt really what we are meant to go through as humans. I say just accept it and remember that no matter what people victimized you as they can't take your mindset and you! After being going on (survival adrenaline for I assuming days if not weeks in your case) the body does need to intensely INTENSELY unwind!! That fatigue is just letting you know you must imperatively relax! I dont care , what anyone says going through stuff like that with a ex-partner leave a deeper scar than people realize (I have been through something not public but similar) ! It ok to let go of self and other expectations for a while just to heal. After the last few videos you made, I expected you to just shut it all off to go breathe and relax in a whole far from the internet. I understand this is your livehood and you dont want to be a victim of taking the time to recover and miss professionnal stuff but I just want to tell you it ok! Karma exist and regardless if you believe in it or not, the good that you have provided and all will be given back to you so it's not missed oppertunaties, it set back to give it to you later oppertunaties. I hope it help you to see things in a lighter and more or less discouraging way!! Friendly!!
Take a break. Look up Pema Chodron. She’s an American Buddhist Nun. She has free podcast, etc online. I’ve read her books, seen her in person and listened to hours of audio. She can help you through trauma, healing, anger.
Wow...you have been through so much...but now you have closure on the past...as such....you now need to focus on yourself... Max...your family and Jordy....do what you need to do....only what your body tells you when you need to rest...rest...all your hard work pays off in the end...and things work out well for you..x take care of yourself young Lady....🙂👏👍
You are going to get there and you will be stronger than ever before. BELIEVE:) Love your style....I like the last vignette you styled, BUT it's got to be what YOU like and want to live with. Love, hugs, and prayers!

You’ve got this Michel 🙌🙌
100% agree with this 🌷
I think I need to hear this sometimes, thank you Lauren 🤍
I really hope you can take a break from social media for awhile. I think it would be really beneficial to your mental well-being.

Is it possible that all the travel you have had is contributing to your physical and emotional state? Just watching all your travel and hearing about upcoming touring makes me wonder if this is all too much.
I agree
I vote books with the candle, & no stool for the other one. It looks very clean that way I think. :)
Are Kalyce and Jeremy still friends with your ex?
I would hope not!!!
I like the candle taper on the books and the vase without anything under it. Anything you style always looks nice. You have great style.

Wait for it to go on sale at Target. They have it there now and have already had a sale on it but not as much variety
I think you need a loooong nap. You sound so tired. 💕💕💕
Hey Michel,
it is wonderful seeing you with a little bit more of your natural aliveness back. 🥰Even though the process of healing the open wounds will probably be coming and going in waves. Worse days, better days. I love that you are mindful about taking it one day at a time or even one step or an hour at the time.

I realized it at one instance when I actually (for the first time) thought during my 15min run about something else.
So I can personally highly reccommend working out while dealing with trauma especially as you´ve said in the last video that you store the emotions in your body as well. It can be interesting thing to support you and if not you will find other things. You are a wise woman.
Sending you TLC from Prague in the Czech Republic. 💕
Thank you for this comment 🤍 I’m so glad you’ve seen positive effects from movement! I’m going to keep experimenting to see what my body likes. Sending you so much love!
Hey Michel♥️ you can actually contact the car rental company and they may have your sunglasses. Many ppl leave phones, keys, sunglasses, etc, so they typically have a lost and found (maybe on their site too).
Woke up feeling really emotionally drained as well + the seasonal blues coming out of the woodwork as the past couple of days here in Colorado have been cold and gloomy & rainy/misty and I feel my soul starting to prepare for my seasonal depression that comes with winter each year. Seeing your videos always seems to make me feel like I have a friend who understands. Taking time to do the things I love today…you should too
I have one more thing to say to you my dear.... You help some of us more than we help you. Also I don't ever want to hear you say you are a burden to anyone and if someone tells you that I have a solution....it's called delete and block. The only reason you would be a burden to someone is if they let you be and it goes both ways so if you're a burden they don't have to watch and that's not your problem or fault. When I read that back it made sense to me....but then again after yesterday's news I'm not sure if or how anything makes sense.... sending hugs my dear.
Candle on books and vase on mirror is amazing!!
I can't say I know what you're going thru but I do know time and patience heals all. Please be gentle with yourself because you've gone thru A LOT and you've done so much to heal. ❤️
Side note, I adsolutely love how you put extra effort in your gifts and showing people that you care about them through little gestures. I'm the same way..gift giving is my love language and I love to make gifts personalized and thoughtful.
I'm so happy to see a new vlog of yours Michel! My dog passed away yesterday and I really needed your company, I know it's hard, but sharing your pain and being real also helps others so much 💜
Alessia so sorry for your loss. That is very difficult to go through. Sending you some peaceful thoughts.
((((ALESSIA))))
@@najetteroberts5553 Thank you so much 💜 Sometimes people don't understand how devastating the loss of a pet is, your words are conforting
So sorry for your loss dear. I know that feeling and it's horrible and it's draining.
@@dianaallen5700 i'm sorry for your loss.
Love the way you styled it at the end the best … candle on books and vase on the mirrored tray the best … sorry, no stool
It sounds like you’re burnt out. I can relate. Remember to take breaks, sometimes it’s OK to lay in bed and not do anything for a day or 2.
Michel I feel like you are my little sis, take care of yourself girl ❤️
sorry, but don't like the wall piece.
Love the white jacket! You look great in it.
Highly recommend yoga with Adriene for a nice way to move your body as gently as is needed or with more intensity if that’s what you’re feeling up to!
You & max seemed depressed. Hold him longer and tighter
One end needs a little more height! Maybe another book and no stool, just the mirror!
With that being said, hang in there , things can only move up!! And you do not have to get permission for being human!
Hang in there! You’re doing great managing all the stress that has been wearing you emotionally, mentally and physically.
Thank you Crystal, that means so much🤍
Awww Michel. Sending you so much love and warm hugs 🫂 people pointing things out can definitely feel overwhelming. Hoping you can take what feels your heart can or is willing to be with. I feel a lot of care for where you are at and feeling protective of you 💚
The candle on the books and nothing under the vase looks best.
OMG,,, I finally got a chance to try magic spoon ,the choc kind...... Like cocoa puffs , BUT like cocoa puffs on Christmas Morning or What ever Holiday you celebrate. When your 6 and you just know Santa left you everything you asked for ,THAT kinda cocoa puffs,🥰🥰🥰🥰 I had to come back like you first kiss kinda cocoa puffs. Or when you are snuggling with that special someone kind of 😋
No stool, I think. I eally like that stool, but not in that arrangement.
It is a privilege to walk alongside you and pray for you on your journey. Thank you for being such a blessing 🥰
Try the candle on books on one side. (The candle needs the stack of books.) Then place your pottery vase with greenery and a smaller similar pottery vase without greenery next to it on the other side. You could put them on a wooden tray. Don’t think you need the mirror base.
I think people are not accustomed to genuinely nice, polite and thoughtful people. I have faith that you are going to get pass all of this and your star is going to shine so bright that they'll find ways to criticize that too.🥰
I like how you ended up styling with the books and the mirror!
Happy Birthday Kalyce! Thankful 4 you to see your in Michel life and I hope you have a wonderful birthday’s.
I love how real and genuine you are! That is what you’re doing right girl! Thank you for being you and inspiring others. I am praying that you can heal and start feeling fully free and joyful.
He was a jerk. Move on with your life!
Not helpful…be nice
She is and she was. She's even in a whole new relationship. And lets all extend her some grace any normal person would be hurt in a situation like this. Her divorce was only a year ago and even the ending of their union was at ultra speed. A little over a year ago she, thought she was happily married to a great guy...
So all of this isn't THAT long ago.
And not only did he cheat on her she now recently had to learn he Cheated with multiple women and is even an S offender.
That would knock anyone back months back in their healing journey.
Its very easy to judge but have some compasion because if you are objective you can tell she is really trying to close that chapter.
And she is way to sweet, she kept placing some of the blame on herself so in a weird way I am happy she get all this new information about her ex husband.
I got the feeling form watching her first divorce video that she was placing to much blame on herself.
Mind you at that time the situation seemed less extreme, it was already clear to me based on what she explainend and how she did it she may have been naive or could've spoken up sooner but she did nothing wrong. Now that she knows all of this she can at least know for sure it was nothing that she did he just has lots of issues and things would've went fairly simmilar with any women he would've married.
She will get to that point sooner or later and she will feel so much lighter. God did her the biggest favor .
So for now let the girl be !
I do the same exact thing with thanking people. Or saying sorry all the time. Like even getting Starbucks and they forget to give me a straw, I say “Oh can I get a straw. Sorry!” My sister always says, what are you sorry for?? She gets on me about it. So that was a good reminder for myself. Thank you.
When you're feeling empty sometimes the best self care is to care for someone else
Like find something nice to do to bring a smile to someone else's face
For me that's actually one of the satisfying and quickest ways to fuel up
❤️
Look how great your skin looks! You are healing, it is just a process. All my best!
I looooove a Michel upload.
So glad that you’re back home. I know this sounds dumb, but sometimes if I’m overwhelmed I literally will do a whole body “shake off”. The silliness of trying to shake something horrible off, makes me laugh a little and seems to actually help. In your case, the burden is not yours to carry. Just shake it off back on him. You have ZERO blame in this, so no need to help him carry HIS burden. Also, on a lighter side, I was so glad to see you listening to your body and noticing what makes it feel better or worse. Because sometimes things that make logical sense - like exercising - may not be what your body is ready for yet.. There have been people who forced themselves to workout too soon after having Covid and ended up with long Covid. So I love the lesson that you are teaching people, which is to listen to your body. I’m not saying that staying in bed forever is good, but just to ease back into things the way you are doing is great! We are all here because we support and Love you so much! Thank YOU for sharing your life with us. It truly does help us knowing that we can all get through bad things.
I’ll try shaking it off physically!😂🤍 I love that idea. And thank you for the kindness, I’m still trying to learn to “hear” my body but I think I’m getting better at it🥰
Physically shaking something off is not bad at all! It's actually a fantastic way to keep things from getting trapped in your body xx
wow Michel, while watching your videos/ following your Instagram I actually noticed that you're often using this phrase and I was a bit surprised/ couldn't understand why you use it because you really don't owe anyone anything, if anyone is not okay with what you're doing then they're free to go :) sending hugs
Hi Michel, The last option of those two pieces displayed is the best from my point of view, praying that all will be well with you mentally, physically, and health-wise, you are a mighty woman of God and a champion and will overcome any obstacle, stay spiritually strong, remember God is by your side and your viewers 😊🙏
Thank you for being honest. Your hope and strength is in Christ. He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds. Christ Himself and Christ through other people can heal and restore you. You may not see or feel it now but God is able to make all things work together for good to those who love Him. I have been a Christian for over 40 years and I have been through trials and in the worst of them the waters did not overflow and my soul found rest in God alone. We are created to be worshippers and are only as satisfied as we are in Him. Psalm 147:3, Romans8:28;Isaiah 43:3. ❤Isaiah 40:27-31. He will not fail you or forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:8
Yes...candlestick on books and vase on a stool...it looked great! Super cute jacket...btw! 🤩🙌💖
It's so cute that you call Max your son ☺️
I can tell that you're exhausted, I'm sorry. I love the way that you had things arranged in the end :) Sending lots of love ❤️
Wow, I feel like I’m your friend who is walking through this journey with you. We are rooting for you and we wish you the best. Trauma is no easy or painless, but may God encourage you and strengthen you throughout every step if this Journey!
Sending love ❤️
🤗🤗🤗❤️
Thank you for being here!
Gah lots of love and healing energies to you lady. And Thank YOU for sharing your life with us, we love to support and be inspired by you!
Michel I'm proud of you and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and your editing is amazing
In my opinion, I find your TV more aesthetically pleasing than the canvas cover. Sorry, I know you spent a lot of time creating it. I liked the candle on the books.
Personally, I don't see thanking people like that as an issue necessarily. It acknowledges them. I always think thanking them is better than apologizing
That's good advice for everyone...focus on one thing at a time until you can see the shore.
I saw that you are not yet familiar with the work of Brene Brown. I think you are going to love her work on authenticity and vulnerability. Thank you for helping others by sharing your journey.
I enjoy your videos and thanks for being open and sharing your experiences. Just a side note: please be careful with Oatly oat milk because there has been a recent recall on it.
I also felt like sleeping all day, but had to do life things which in hindsight was better for me. Getting more sleep than normal at night was helpful but still doing life stuff I needed to, hope you find your thrive groove!
Definitely candle stick on books! And I’d scratch the stool under the pot❤
I’m so sorry you’re going through so much. I know it all feels horrible right now but you’re strong and you’ll get through it with your friends and family at your side. Sending you all the positive thoughts I can.
As for your styling question I love how it was when you left it with the candle on the books and the vase on the mirror. But maybe you could add one more thing beside the vase/mirror for an odd number? A small jar, a little succulent, a tiny vintage picture frame, some cute vintage find? Your style is always so great!
Good job Michel!👍
I think you may have been hacked. I got a message that I had won a prize from you and I was to telegram someone. I think this is a scam and didn't do as the message said. Hope it doesn't cause you any problems!
I'm coming off a low season too, it doesn't last forever, just prioritize your health and the rest should follow
Hé Michel, which size do you have from the Sezane piece/jacket?
If u feel physically and mentally drained try a Thai oil body massage it if you like massages. It's my go to when I am burnt out and that seems to help me with fatigue.
Michel, take care of yourself yes but don’t give any more of yourself to that awful man! You are blessed I so many ways. I like the candle on the books & the vase on the mirror. 👍🏻
No stool. Just the way you had it at the end.
Michel, you’re doing great. And you’ve got this.
I love how you have your table, and gorgeous jacket sweet. A beautiful day to you.
You can call the rental place they’ll usually mail your stuff
Hey!!! Proud of you. I’d probably put the stool a little behind the vase on the right and use it for something small like essential oils or perfumes?? ¨̮ the tapestry looks amazing!
Please take care if yourself 💗
I like the candle on the books but maybe try to find an even bigger vase for the right side instead of stacking on a stool:)
A wise person once told me that when struggling with grief and overwhelm and exhaustion and looking at the pile of things that need doing to give yourself grace and just do the next thing. You don’t have to do it all. Just the next thing. And give yourself more grace. And ask for help - people want to help but they don’t usually know what will actually be helpful to you. Asking for help is not burdening them - if they can’t do it they’ll tell you. But the people who love you are most likely wishing they could make it all better for you and it would give them joy to help you.
COVID plus the emotional stuff you’ve been dealing with is enough to make anyone lose motivation. Be gentle with yourself. It will get better.
Candle on books, vase works well with all options - Alone, on bigger stool or mirror.
You are wonderful and capable and healing! Ps, no stool ;)
Last option. Books under candle and nothing under the vase. Ugh I just got a box of 4 sweaters from Sézane and returning all of them. Over the past 5 years I think I’ve returned more than I’ve kept. Nothing fits me quite right. As a short girl with bum and hips French clothes don’t fit well.
I just think plants look best on little stools! Live plants/greenery :)
I think the stool adds too much negative space. But I like the candle on the books!
Hi Michel, I just want to say you strong woman, it normal to feel the way after such a public yet personal drama set in your life. As I have mentionned before despite your struggles I think your one of the most genuine light and positive youtuber there is on TH-cam period! But here a tip: from someone who been true chronic trauma because of circumstances and all for the past 10 yrs and who litterally just had a trauma filled 48h this week. The fatigue is normal and will stay for a while because such emotional and mental personal trauma isnt really what we are meant to go through as humans. I say just accept it and remember that no matter what people victimized you as they can't take your mindset and you! After being going on (survival adrenaline for I assuming days if not weeks in your case) the body does need to intensely INTENSELY unwind!! That fatigue is just letting you know you must imperatively relax! I dont care , what anyone says going through stuff like that with a ex-partner leave a deeper scar than people realize (I have been through something not public but similar) ! It ok to let go of self and other expectations for a while just to heal. After the last few videos you made, I expected you to just shut it all off to go breathe and relax in a whole far from the internet. I understand this is your livehood and you dont want to be a victim of taking the time to recover and miss professionnal stuff but I just want to tell you it ok! Karma exist and regardless if you believe in it or not, the good that you have provided and all will be given back to you so it's not missed oppertunaties, it set back to give it to you later oppertunaties. I hope it help you to see things in a lighter and more or less discouraging way!! Friendly!!
Take a break. Look up Pema Chodron. She’s an American Buddhist Nun. She has free podcast, etc online. I’ve read her books, seen her in person and listened to hours of audio. She can help you through trauma, healing, anger.
Wow...you have been through so much...but now you have closure on the past...as such....you now need to focus on yourself... Max...your family and Jordy....do what you need to do....only what your body tells you when you need to rest...rest...all your hard work pays off in the end...and things work out well for you..x take care of yourself young Lady....🙂👏👍
The magic spoon bars were terrible IMO.
I like the candle on the books and the vase on a larger stool will look good
You are going to get there and you will be stronger than ever before. BELIEVE:) Love your style....I like the last vignette you styled, BUT it's got to be what YOU like and want to live with. Love, hugs, and prayers!
