- 30 habits that have improved my life.
When I went through a period of burnout as a newly qualified doctor, I decided I wanted to imprve my life and realised that the best way to do this was by changing my habits. Over the past few years, I've focused on adding healthy habits to my morning routine, daily routine and evening routine. These habits have helped me stay healthy, improve my confidence and helped me overoem people-pleasng, perfectionsim and procrastination. 30 habits that have improved my life.

What a ray of sunshine you are!
Omg…. Totally agree with waking up to the clean kitchen every day! I’ve done this most of my adult life (not including baby-toddler time!). Yesterday is past - today is a new day!
It makes such a difference! I love it.
@@SarahNicholls I loved your list and I do a few of the things you discussed. Thank you 🧡
Love the idea about making a note about important dates/events that the people close to you have coming up and then following up with them. It’s so easy to forget things but I find that just the process of writing it down helps me to remember
I always think you're really good at remembering these kinds of things! But writing a little note always helps x
Oh wow, your video just randomly popped up on my feed and I’m so grateful for it❤️I’m gonna check out your other content! Just wanted to tell you that the energy you radiate is truly charming and you seem like a great person! Absolutely loved all those small habits🫶🏼🫶🏼
That's SO kind, thank you! I hope you enjoy the other content 🫶✨️
I have watched 100000s of videos similar to this (probably watched most of the videos on TH-cam related to this sort of topic) and I’m not sure why, but this is easily the best and most useful one I’ve seen.
The actual tips provided are so tangible and well thought out. I’ve filled a page with notes and will refer back to them. Thank you!
(P.s - I have never left a comment on TH-cam before, that’s how useful I found this!)
Woahhh! What a compliment!! Thank you so much 🫶 I hope these tips are helpful for you. Thanks for being here, and thanks for your comment. You've made my day 💕
❤🙋
Great tips! Also loved how each one was filmed like when you just thought of it. Made the video more exciting and not like a lecture like other peoples self help videos can be like! ❤❤
I’ve just set up a reminder to joy journal on my phone and have just noticed two random things today that brought me such joy but I will probably never remember, but thanks to this new joy journal I can look back on and bring that joy to light again 🤩
Thank you so much! I've made a series of these videos now, where I just film them on the go and they are really fun to make, so I'm glad you enjoy that format! Also, so happy to hear you're going to start a joy journal 🥰 I hope it brings you as much happiness as it does for me.
Thank you for sharing such good tips ❤

You are so welcome! 💓🥰
This video randomly popped up and it’s the best one I’ve ever watched on habits! I had my pen and paper flowing with your habits. I relate to so many…especially nail biting and i hate how my hands look. Now to start implementing them! Thank you!
Oh my goodness that's sooo nice! Thank you. The nail biting ome seems so small but it's had a big impact on my life!
I just discovered your channel and am really impressed with the content you produce here. You are also such a nice, authentic woman and you definitely have a new subscriber. Greetings from Germany
Welcome aboard! Thank you - that's really kind 🥹
Number 21!! If I can actually implement this, it will change my life. ❤️ Thank you!
It's totally changed my life. Let me know how you get on with it!!
Great video. Incredibly helpful tips. I’m not a HC professional, but an attorney with burnout. Also dealing with a mentally ill child and parent with dementia.
All of these tips are great to keep you on track. Thank you!
Gosh, you have a lot on your plate. I think there are many similarities between our professions - high workload, high expectations, cognitive burden, people coming to us with problems etc.
Hi, just found your channel. I’ve started going outside for at least 30 minutes ❤xxx
Excellent list, I try to do a lot of these already! New subscriber here!

Assume everybody is doing their best! Just what I needed to hear
Glad it was helpful! Have a great day ✨️
Excellent content 👍
That's so kind, thank you!!
What an inspiring video Sarah. 😊 These are great tips, some of which I already do - even if I’m really tired or feeling ill, I always clean up my kitchen before I go to bed. A similar tip I have is to always leave your house in a state that you would wish to come home to. Particularly on your days off when you might be going out for the day somewhere. Get the chores done before you go out as nine times out of ten you won’t feel like doing them when you get home. I’ll be trying some of your other tips, thanks. ❤
Ooh I love that advice: "leave your house in a state that you would wish to come home to" brilliant! Thank you 😊
Love the idea of using the fancy dishware you have because why not?! What are we saving it for? So many useful tips. Great video!
Exactly!! These were passed on to us from Vince's grandparents and apparently they always saved them for best... and never used them. So they were given to us on the condition that we would use them regularly 🥰
@@SarahNicholls love that!
🥂 In 2000 AD we were gifted crystal champagne flutes in a satin keepsake box. We try to use them @least 1Sabbath / mo
Sensational video! First time on your channel. Greetings from Ohio!! Love the idea of Habit Tracking! Wow!
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm so happy to have found your channel today, I'm on a mission to reduce stress and enjoy life more and these are all excellent tips. One thing I've been doing is taking 2 minutes to make my bed every day. Even if everything else has gone a bit chaotic it feels like a kindness to myself to climb into a smooth bed at the end of the day rather than a big jumble of bed clothes. Thank you for this great video and have a lovely day ❤
That's so lovely! Making the bed is so simple but has a surprisingly big impact. If you're on a mission to reduce stress, you'll probably enjoy my 'soft life' video, where I talk about creating a stress free life. Also my video on '30 ways to make your life easier'. Enjoy!!
@@SarahNicholls Thank you Dr.Sarah, I will definitely watch those too ❤🙏
Number 8 is going to be hard but will definitely read this book. Number 11 was something I definitely need to do. Only up to 13, definitely need to continue this video and rewatch and like you said earlier write the list down. Thank you so much for this video, you have gained another subscriber. Thank you from Canberra, Australia.
Hope you enjoy the book, it was life changing for me! Thank you for being here 🫶
