📲 Our Pick Up Limes app is finally here (1-week free trial!): bit.ly/PUL_app 🎉 TeaTime Tuesdays are finally back! Thanks for cozying up with me ☕ Anyone else also feeling the need to shake the habit of negative self-talk?
This video was a really good reminder to watch and better understand our inner dialogue and how it affects us given the current circumstances - thank you! Could you make video on mindfulness/meditation?
I'm a psychotherapist, and this is a technique that we use to help clients re-write their story. I'm grateful for this video, reaching so many more people than individual therapists can possibly reach...
can u pls suggest something fr a 10 yr old kid he speaks negatively inspite of suggesting him affiramtions, meditation, giving love he speaks aggresively like her mother.
I have a feeling that if we could get more people binge-watching Sadia's content, the world would be a better place. Every video leaves you in a way better mental state, more peaceful, more determined to become a better human being. Kudos to the Pick Up Limes team!
I found her by " accident " here . And i can only confirm , that what you say is true . I havent seen much of her videos until now . But all of them were so pleasent to watch . So peaceful , calming , and in a nice atmosphere , allways decorated with beautyful little details and positive messages . She is really a very kind young woman . I enjoy her side . No hateful arguments e.t.c. or comments . Omg ...That feels so good in this rough internet world . And it is just what i need .
@@anettesinn280 I agree, Anette... the channel is positive AND instructive. We came for the healthful and tasty recipes [minus ones with tree nuts] as we’re transitioning to vegetarianism and stay for those vids + the equipment videos, lightness, and honesty. We purchase carefully only high quality equipment so it’s cool to see her’s. Greetings from a stranger in Chicago.
Been following you since years now and absolutely love Tea Time Tuesdays! Potential topic - Loneliness The reason I really like your videos is that instead of commanding like lots of influencers and making us feel guilty/inadequate you guide us in a gentle way. It's therapeutic. Thank you ❤️
I’d love a tea time talk around relationships and how they evolve. The world feels so divisive right now and I’m in my late 20s, a time when all my old friends are really growing apart and choosing different paths. Even becoming vegan a couple years ago has really tested a lot of my relationships! Compounded by a pandemic it’s really easy to feel lonely and lost.
Sometimes we have to move on and find "like minded" people. It can be tough saying goodbye to old friends but there are opportunities to find new ones. I hope the best for you, Annaka!
Keep your mind open to friends of all ages and sexes. In our youth many times our friends are incredibly similar to us in age, background etc. Sometimes the most amazing friends are ones where you have similar values but the other stuff doesn’t matter. One of my best friends is 27 years younger and another is 20 years older. These amazing women have taught me so much and are 100 percent there for me when I need them.
This teatime Tuesday video made me cry. I was feeling so overwhelmed lately from all the courses, exams, internship, all the covid news and so. These last 5 minutes felt like a treat, I just forgot about all the pressures and negative inner dialogue I was having for the last few days. I just love you. Through PUL, you've helped me so much, I am forever grateful. Take love from a younger sister of yours!
As a therapist, I absolutely love this video. Paying attention to our internal dialogue and the way we tend to word things has such a great power, but we rarely ever think of it. Making small and subtle changes to our words is one of the first things I practice with my patients. Thank your posting this!
many years ago, about 45. i read something that helped me to overcome my debilitating shyness......the thing i read asked me to draw a pie, then to section out portions of my life, say school, friends, family, strangers, etc......then it asked in what portions are you shy.....well, most time was spent with family and friends of course.....so it gave me a real look at, the rather small portions of my life where i felt shy.......this was such a revelation to my 11 year old self......i don't think i ever described myself this way again.....i really did become a different person.
For me depression and procrastination go hand in hand. Getting repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for depression rTMS. My doc changed my depression cocktail 6 weeks ago . Feeling better. More like me. Hope it sticks.
@F M @m my procrastination is also hand in hand with my depression and anxiety. i used call myself lazy, unmotivated and a failure; overall negative talk like shared in this video. but my therapist said it's really normal, it's just like how you cannot do certain things with a broken arm, you cannot do certain things with stress and depression. if you can find why you procrastinate (because of stress, depression, friends, topic you are working etc.) and focus to solve that issue first you can be productive. i hope it helps i'm by your side besties💕💕
"Never give myself credit or praise even for things I was doing well " This statement hit home for me. I started to noticed how each work or project I do, even is the one I am proud of, I rarely telling myself "Great work" or crediting myself. Its always feeling like I am just not good enough. Thank you for the amazing tips Sadia! What I learn is to always see myself as creator not competitor. That helps me not keep looking over my shoulder all the time and just focus on my work.
I understand you too. Sometimes the same happens to me. The other day I realized that this mindset comes from my childhood and how I never received praise and mostly just complains. Once we discover the root of the problem, it can help us change our mindset too.
@@thatgirl_Devi totally agree with you. I felt that it so important to actually sit and reflect our childhood memory because that subconsciously made us who we are today.
Another aspect of this is allowing your expectations to meet the stage of life you are in... What you did or achieved in your 20s or 30s is vastly different to you in your 50s or 60s. Judging yourself by your old standards and not allowing yourself the freedom to change can make you harbour negative thoughts towards yourself. Thanks for this Sadia, it’s an important topic ❤️
Yes! Great comment. I just turned 50. Im just not understanding that I can't accomplish as much as I did a few years back. It's become a huge issue for me.😔. Acceptance is the key. ❤🤗
I needed to hear this, Sadia. Thank you for being a friend, even if I've never met you. I've been manifesting negative feelings and now they're my reality.. It needs to stop. Thank you for reminding me.
Didi thank you to pass in to my life. Few years ago I learnt how to use bullet journal, focusing on MY life. Thank you to teach so many things. Keep growing & helping. All the best.
Today in culinary school we talked about how we expect the waiter to do everything right. Once everything is going well we don't have anything to complain about. But, when the waiter spills a drink, didn't come at the table on time or any other "bad" thing, then we have negative thoughts on them. I just needed to share this and believe that we should pay attention to the good things in life too, instead of only focusing on the negative thoughts we have.
I feel such a relief hearing that I am not the only one who struggles with it TT. Nobody from my surrounding understands the way I feel. Thank you so much. I don’t feel alone anymore ❤️
Dear Sadia, I have another approach worth trying. When you tell yourself something like "I'm an idiot", it's really another part of yourself that says that. It immensely helps to accept this part of yourself! You can thank this part for wanting to help you be a good/reliable/productive/... person and hug it "virtually". You will notice when you do that that the parts wants to be accepted by you. Once you accept the part more and more, you'll notice that the way it talks to you is nicer and nicer. :) I swear it is worth a try. :)
Yeees I totally agree! Once you realise that a part of you is hurting yourself because it wants to be loved or accepted, you can have compassion for that. And it changes everything!
Yes! It’s a part that is important, its job is to tell us right from wrong, it’s just that it became paranoid over the years... we need to relax it and give it a healthy working environment and it will work much better :)
No.. it just makes me worse as a person.. I mean.. there's always that inner me popping up in my head criticising me and saying that "I am the biggest procrastinator ".. and the moment I accept it.. I actually become a procrastinator... I am a straight A student .. but these day.. I am procrastinating... ain't keeping up with my status of a straight a student..
I think this video is a sign. I have been devaluing my achievements lately, focusing on what I failed at rather than what I achieved. Thank you for sharing this about yourself and giving some really good tips, they do make a difference.
Sadia, the new website is amazing! So convenient: you can adjust the servings and mark off every step of the recipe. I appreciate how much work went into building the website, thank you!
oh my gosh, I think I really needed to hear this for the past few years my internal dialogue has rly robbed me of even letting me engage in creative things (music, photography, etc.) and its been horrible on certain days. I would always internally think those negative overarching statements, and it just led to despair. The idea of rewording those thoughts and adding "right now" immediately feels so much better for me. It makes me feel not very stuck and like I want to grow. Thank you so much
Hi Sadia, I don't really comment normally, but I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely video that brings so much positive energy to people around you on this platform. All the effort that goes behind developing the new website and design of your PDFs will not go unnoticed! I've been struggling with this habit for a long time now, so thank you!
Sadia I cannot say how much I love your videos and your positive presence. We have a great divide with so much judgement on one side but also this huge awakening happening all over the world on the other. Just have to say so happy we are on the side of love and light. Love and light to you!
The timing couldn’t be more perfect. I feel like you are a friend of mine who is constantly trying to not only make me feel better but also help me to put things in a better perspective. I really really wish I could meet you someday and give a tight hug. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰
I just cried. Out of nowhere. I have been going through this for such a long time now. I just didn't know how to phrase it. You did it for me. Thank you Sadia for making this video ❤️
Yup negative self-talk is something i struggle with a lot, so thank you for this :) As a suggestion, could you talk about overcoming self-doubt, low self-worth when things aren't going your way in life? It's tough to stay focused when your internal chatter isn't positive or supportive.
When the whole world run too fast for perfection, I'm wondering how beautifully you guide us to realize how precious our life is. I just want to be a better version of myself, so I will always keep up with you. Lots of ❤️ dear sister
I missed these. That writing bit resonated so much with me because I'm a writer myself but I feel like everytime I try to start a story, it's terrible and not worth continuing. But I'm going to practice the thought process of "I'm just not confident right now, but it doesn't mean I'm an overall terrible writer."
We can be our own worst critics sometimes but in time like these we need to be our best cheerleaders. I love all your content and enjoy the receptors and the positive messages. Keep up the amazing work you are unique and wonderful!
I used to struggle with this alot. The thing that helped me the most was the book "Feeling Good", in fact I was able to get off of the medication I was taking because of it. If you struggle with negative self talk or even depression, get the book! I'm so happy to hear that you are bringing back tea time Tuesday!
@@tommie3700 sorry, I just saw this! The author is Dr.Burns. He actually just released a new book called "Feeling Great" I don't know the difference between the two, but heard it's good with a little update.
I started a mood tracker in my journal so that I can see trends in how my days went. Usually, if one 'bad' thing happened, it would ruin my whole day, and I would ruminate on that and it would impact my mood sometimes for the whole week! With my tracker, I check in daily, reflect on the day's events, write if I feel compelled to, and at the end of the month, I get to see that it wasn't all bad and I have a better perspective / outlook.
I was about to cry...tears ready to fall...and just opened Instagram and saw your posts about TTT video...and no one can imagine what joy did it spark to me...thank you so much to the entire Pick Up Limes team..for working each day...Thank you so much Sadia & Robin..we love you alottt..❣️
Dear Sadia, it's good to see you back with your thoughtful comments on how we can be kinder to ourselves. I doubt there are many people who haven't been affected by the pandemic in some way the past year. We all need reminding to be gentle with ourselves sometimes and not to berate ourselves for struggling a little, or a lot. I lost my darling Dad a few months ago. It was unrelated to covid but sudden and shocking. Covid added a huge amount of stress to the situation and it has been a very difficult time. I come here to watch videos by people such as yourself who soothe me, bring me calmness and distraction when I need to be at peace. x
I noticed this while reading my journal. I was complaining a lot in the last weeks, focusing on the negative stuff and being too hard with myself. I'm so grateful for journaling, otherwise I wouldn't saw this so clearly. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Peace!
Sadia, is my favorite TH-camr and she lightens up my day and empowers my spirit. I feel like I am listening to an enlightened soul !!! Thanks you so much Sadia for making a difference in our lives !
While watching this I remembered my post-partum self when all the emotions just seem to swirl to every directions. I remembered constantly reminding myself, it's okay to feel bad today, it's okay to fail to nurse today. We have time to practice again tomorrow (nursing my newborn was so hard for me that time). Adding the 'today' made me feel more apologetic of myself, that it is just a bad day, not a bad life. The time frame is important.
I would just LOVE to see these every week when you've got the time. The mind chatter is my biggest issue at the moment! I'd love if you could have tea times about making mental space at home, positively thinking about food, making time for exercise, fitting in meditation...Perhaps you've already talked about these & I haven't come across the videos so I'll have a good look at your channel.
Thank you so much for sharing your personal struggle and approach to overcoming that struggle. I realized during more intense prayer time during Lent that I was berating myself repeatedly for small failures, and I have started asking myself if my internal dialogue is what I would say to my grown children if they were having the same experience. At the same time, I realized that my expectations are unreasonably high for myself, another thing that has been feeding my negative assessments of myself. Similarly, I am asking myself what I would expect of co-workers, friends, family, when I task myself with an overwhelming workload and expected personal productivity. It has been very freeing and stops the negativity. Thanks again!
Just yesterday evening I had a talk with my bf about that exact topic, that I don't dislike myself but I should be more kind to myself. That stuff I say to myself I wouldn't even say to ppl I don't like, and seeing that video now just reassures me in that point. So thank you.
Love this, Sadia, we are much better off with a positive mindset as oppose to a negative mindset. And yes, you are a great recipe developer and photographer. Awesome youtuber as well!
I love as well. She seems and sounds of whole and so calms your spirit. If you're into calming videos or audios also check out Emily P Freeman's podcasts called The Next Right Thing.
Dear Sadiya, I can relate to the negative feelings in these troubled times... It's incredible that you are fighting off those thoughts.. Here's something you must know.. You have a great impact on my life.. You have changed my thought process and helped me fight chronic depression... You are an amazing human being.. Never quit being yourself cause you inspire us... Lots of love... The times will surely change..
I appreciate how honestly you depict your everyday life in your videos. It is important that everyone knows that life is full of ups and downs and it is similar with everyone at some degree. The only person you should compare yourself must be you yesterday.
Honestly, this positive video was EXACTLY what I needed to hear today! I have been really down on myself about things at work and thinking things about myself that I would NEVER say to another human being, and this really helped to point that out! Thank you!
Fabulous video. So happy you brought tea time Tuesday back. Some topics : presence and mindfulness, accept change and become the agent of change, empathy towards oneself and others, books you have read and recommend
I love this! Whenever we say 'I'm dum' or 'I'm stupid' that actually becomes part of our identity. If you're nice to yourself your whole life feels different and failure isn't that big of a deal anymore 😃
Sadia! You have been a true inspiration in my life since the day I came across Pick Up Limes. I have watched your videos to cheer myself up and to calm myself down. Having self depreciating and overly critical conversations in my own head is something even I have been guilty of doing. To watch you come out here and talk about this is reassuring. Thanks for being so awesome!
I would absolutely love to see something on healing and recovering from life traumas. Particularly from childhood trauma, relationship with parents, subsequent anxiety, but any other kind of trauma we all go through in our lives and on healing generally - would absolutely love to hear your experience and outlook on this, Sadi! xxx
I have been a follower of pick up limes since 2019..I must say this is one of the few channels which consistently brings up good content on well being and healthy lifestyle.Whenever we are in stress ,brushing up some of the videos here brings up our spirit. Thanks Sadia!!!
Sadia, I just wanted to say that you are so inspiring and I look up to you. You calm me down everytime I watch your videos, and you can be confident in yourself!! You’re an amazing woman and I bet sooo many people enjoy your company!! When the borders get open, I would love to visit the netherlands! Lots of love from switzerland❤️❤️❤️
I relate to this. Last year I realized all that alone time was making me so self consumed and very focused on what was not going right and ending up in a bad place mentally. Thank you for this Sadia
Good morning Sadia! I don't know if you have observed me saying the same again and again but motivational videos that you make related to habits, how to come out of something, how to cultivate a habit etc are all my favs. The only thing I do when I am low is play your playlist of "health and wellness" multiple times, in a way I am emotionally connected to it! From my heart I really want you to make such videos coz u r just amazing ! Thank you, have a good day!!
This applies to a lot in life. Add the details or descriptors. Don't tell a woman she's beautiful. Tell her she has a beautiful smile. Don't tell a friend you enjoy spending time with them. Tell the you enjoy spending time because they make you laugh or feel relaxed. Give it a purpose. Great video.
This was better than most self help videos ever! The mannerism in which we talk to ourselves can really make or break us at times! More of this type of content along with the dope cooking please!😊
Next topic request :- I don't want to hurt loved one by saying something in the heat of the moment. But I do. Any suggestion as to how not to lash out.
@JYOTI, this is so me. I've mastered the art of telling someone I'm too impaired to talk at the moment. Then I write down how I feel and can reread it without leaving out what the issues were simply because I'm afraid of confrontation, and I'd much rather fester and confront an issue after three strikes so I don't think that I'm pretty or crazy. I hope this helps 😊
I started working full time in March of last year and have felt like an absolute failure multiple times throughout. I have found incredible strength in giving myself the advice that I would give to friends. Positive, constructive self-talk is so important. Thank you for making this video! ❤️
“I need to treat myself better I really can be so unkind I know that I deserve better If only you could hear what goes on in my mind I wouldn't say the things I do to anybody else So why's it okay to say to myself? I need to treat myself better.” - Victoria Justice, “Treat Myself.”
As someone who watches videos on 1.5x, I didn't realise I listened to you at Normal speed. I felt peaceful listening to you.. love the calm and positivity.😀😀🙏🙏
Stuck in my own head? My own biggest critc? Ya, story of my life. I appreciate the advice to talk as if you were talking to someone else, I think that helps a ton. How often do we ever take our own advice?
How can i describe how much your video made me feel cozy and happy , the thing that you talking about to be specific in the nagging things didn’t come to my mind ever ,so thank u!!
Your videos put so much positivity in my life. It’s so easy to get so caught up in your daily life but sometimes your videos really ground me, and they are so calming and aesthetically pleasing. I love your content and you promote such a healthy attitude towards mental health and nourishing your body!!
Great points! Those pieces of advice such as identifying and noticing the "chatter," trying to treat myself the way I would treat someone else I care about, and avoiding making broad, absolutist statements are similar to strategies my counselor gave me to cope with depression. Great video, Sadia! 🌻🌷
Thank you for sharing, my Tuesday was the first day of my new life again. Second heart attack in four months. Will be going through your video’s looking for my new meals. God bless you.

Exactly! I just started a Self-Compassion workbook today. Nice to know others struggle with this issue too.
Wheres you get the workbook?

This is not just cooking channel but it's also self development kind a channel, everytime I learn something new from here.
Thank you ❤️
That's so true, also the way she prepares the meals makes me want to become vegan as soon as possible:)

I think this video is a sign. I have been devaluing my achievements lately, focusing on what I failed at rather than what I achieved. Thank you for sharing this about yourself and giving some really good tips, they do make a difference.
The second you said “grab a cup of tea” I paused the video and made myself tea. Such a lovely talk. I appreciate your energy and your videos so much.
Sadia, the new website is amazing! So convenient: you can adjust the servings and mark off every step of the recipe. I appreciate how much work went into building the website, thank you!
Thanks so much, Uliana - and I'm glad you're finding that feature helpful 😄
oh my gosh, I think I really needed to hear this
for the past few years my internal dialogue has rly robbed me of even letting me engage in creative things (music, photography, etc.) and its been horrible on certain days. I would always internally think those negative overarching statements, and it just led to despair.
The idea of rewording those thoughts and adding "right now" immediately feels so much better for me. It makes me feel not very stuck and like I want to grow. Thank you so much
Hi Sadia, I don't really comment normally, but I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely video that brings so much positive energy to people around you on this platform. All the effort that goes behind developing the new website and design of your PDFs will not go unnoticed! I've been struggling with this habit for a long time now, so thank you!
I appreciate you taking the time to share this with me, Glory - I'm so grateful to hear it's helpful in some way 🤗
Your presence here is so needed, Sadia! I truly love and appreciate everything you are and all your creations. Take care of yourselves 💕🌈🧸
Meditation and yoga helps a lot with recognizing patterns in thought, you also identify less with whats going in your head.
True
Sadia I cannot say how much I love your videos and your positive presence. We have a great divide with so much judgement on one side but also this huge awakening happening all over the world on the other. Just have to say so happy we are on the side of love and light. Love and light to you!
The timing couldn’t be more perfect. I feel like you are a friend of mine who is constantly trying to not only make me feel better but also help me to put things in a better perspective. I really really wish I could meet you someday and give a tight hug. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰
🤗 🤗 🤗
@@PickUpLimes Thank you Sadia for your recipe and everything 💕😇🤗🤗
Your amazing quality is that you have ability to self introspect and come up with solutions for urself....what else is needed for being confident
I just cried. Out of nowhere. I have been going through this for such a long time now. I just didn't know how to phrase it. You did it for me. Thank you Sadia for making this video ❤️
Yup negative self-talk is something i struggle with a lot, so thank you for this :)
As a suggestion, could you talk about overcoming self-doubt, low self-worth when things aren't going your way in life?
It's tough to stay focused when your internal chatter isn't positive or supportive.
When the whole world run too fast for perfection, I'm wondering how beautifully you guide us to realize how precious our life is. I just want to be a better version of myself, so I will always keep up with you.
Lots of ❤️ dear sister
Love you, Sadia! Thank you always
WOOOOOOOAAAAAAHH ATE MOIRA YOU'RE HERE!!!!!!😊💛
Your also watching this ate moi! OMG 💕

What's your TH-cam channel about?
I missed these. That writing bit resonated so much with me because I'm a writer myself but I feel like everytime I try to start a story, it's terrible and not worth continuing. But I'm going to practice the thought process of "I'm just not confident right now, but it doesn't mean I'm an overall terrible writer."
We can be our own worst critics sometimes but in time like these we need to be our best cheerleaders. I love all your content and enjoy the receptors and the positive messages. Keep up the amazing work you are unique and wonderful!
I used to struggle with this alot. The thing that helped me the most was the book "Feeling Good", in fact I was able to get off of the medication I was taking because of it. If you struggle with negative self talk or even depression, get the book! I'm so happy to hear that you are bringing back tea time Tuesday!
I always appreciate new book suggestions, thank you Rachel! 📚
@@PickUpLimes Getting on with that Audible partnership I see ahaha. What's the author's name btw?
@@tommie3700 sorry, I just saw this! The author is Dr.Burns. He actually just released a new book called "Feeling Great" I don't know the difference between the two, but heard it's good with a little update.
I started a mood tracker in my journal so that I can see trends in how my days went. Usually, if one 'bad' thing happened, it would ruin my whole day, and I would ruminate on that and it would impact my mood sometimes for the whole week! With my tracker, I check in daily, reflect on the day's events, write if I feel compelled to, and at the end of the month, I get to see that it wasn't all bad and I have a better perspective / outlook.
I was about to cry...tears ready to fall...and just opened Instagram and saw your posts about TTT video...and no one can imagine what joy did it spark to me...thank you so much to the entire Pick Up Limes team..for working each day...Thank you so much Sadia & Robin..we love you alottt..❣️
Dear Sadia, it's good to see you back with your thoughtful comments on how we can be kinder to ourselves.
I doubt there are many people who haven't been affected by the pandemic in some way the past year. We all need reminding to be gentle with ourselves sometimes and not to berate ourselves for struggling a little, or a lot.
I lost my darling Dad a few months ago. It was unrelated to covid but sudden and shocking. Covid added a huge amount of stress to the situation and it has been a very difficult time.
I come here to watch videos by people such as yourself who soothe me, bring me calmness and distraction when I need to be at peace. x
this is just what i wanted to hear today, i hope you ae doing better, and to anyone who wanted to hear this, you did good today
I noticed this while reading my journal. I was complaining a lot in the last weeks, focusing on the negative stuff and being too hard with myself. I'm so grateful for journaling, otherwise I wouldn't saw this so clearly. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Peace!
Sadia, is my favorite TH-camr and she lightens up my day and empowers my spirit. I feel like I am listening to an enlightened soul !!! Thanks you so much Sadia for making a difference in our lives !
She is really amazing, the way she communicates is great.
❤️❤️❤️you must remember how much calm and happy you and your work makes people feel . 🤗🤗
Perfect timing ✨
I took a leave today because the negative chatter was drowning my energy but now I feel better, and this video is a cherry on top
Right on for listening to your body and taking rest when you needed it ✨
While watching this I remembered my post-partum self when all the emotions just seem to swirl to every directions. I remembered constantly reminding myself, it's okay to feel bad today, it's okay to fail to nurse today. We have time to practice again tomorrow (nursing my newborn was so hard for me that time). Adding the 'today' made me feel more apologetic of myself, that it is just a bad day, not a bad life. The time frame is important.
I would just LOVE to see these every week when you've got the time. The mind chatter is my biggest issue at the moment! I'd love if you could have tea times about making mental space at home, positively thinking about food, making time for exercise, fitting in meditation...Perhaps you've already talked about these & I haven't come across the videos so I'll have a good look at your channel.
Thank you so much for sharing your personal struggle and approach to overcoming that struggle. I realized during more intense prayer time during Lent that I was berating myself repeatedly for small failures, and I have started asking myself if my internal dialogue is what I would say to my grown children if they were having the same experience. At the same time, I realized that my expectations are unreasonably high for myself, another thing that has been feeding my negative assessments of myself. Similarly, I am asking myself what I would expect of co-workers, friends, family, when I task myself with an overwhelming workload and expected personal productivity. It has been very freeing and stops the negativity. Thanks again!
Been waiting for this. NEEDED THIS and I can totally related to the negativity
Just yesterday evening I had a talk with my bf about that exact topic, that I don't dislike myself but I should be more kind to myself. That stuff I say to myself I wouldn't even say to ppl I don't like, and seeing that video now just reassures me in that point. So thank you.
Love this, Sadia, we are much better off with a positive mindset as oppose to a negative mindset. And yes, you are a great recipe developer and photographer. Awesome youtuber as well!
Very true. I used to do that to myself years ago but the past 6 years I've learned to catch those negative self talk and turn it around
That's awesome, Brooklyn!
This video feels like calming life advice from a big sister
I love as well. She seems and sounds of whole and so calms your spirit. If you're into calming videos or audios also check out Emily P Freeman's podcasts called The Next Right Thing.
@@bupekabamba6017 Thanks for the recommendation!!
I love tea time Tuesday 😍🍵☕
Oh! How many Tuesdays I have waited for this! ✨
I love the way you said that don't generalise. Just be specific. N give a time frame. This is so so very true. I have tried this n it work wonders.
I missed Tea Time Tuesdays! I love this video and can completely relate. Your energy is so nurturing and warm. I love it 💓
Who else agrees?
Dear Sadiya, I can relate to the negative feelings in these troubled times... It's incredible that you are fighting off those thoughts.. Here's something you must know.. You have a great impact on my life.. You have changed my thought process and helped me fight chronic depression... You are an amazing human being.. Never quit being yourself cause you inspire us... Lots of love... The times will surely change..
Your words make so much sense. Glad to hear from you. ❤️
I appreciate how honestly you depict your everyday life in your videos. It is important that everyone knows that life is full of ups and downs and it is similar with everyone at some degree. The only person you should compare yourself must be you yesterday.
Honestly, this positive video was EXACTLY what I needed to hear today! I have been really down on myself about things at work and thinking things about myself that I would NEVER say to another human being, and this really helped to point that out! Thank you!
sadia, you're the friend that we all need. your words bring so much comfort in these difficult times
Embrace your inner mentor, try to not give all of your headspace to your inner critic
This!!! 🙌🏼
Fabulous video. So happy you brought tea time Tuesday back. Some topics : presence and mindfulness, accept change and become the agent of change, empathy towards oneself and others, books you have read and recommend
I love this! Whenever we say 'I'm dum' or 'I'm stupid' that actually becomes part of our identity. If you're nice to yourself your whole life feels different and failure isn't that big of a deal anymore 😃
you are so right, we will even start learning from failure. It makes us to move from victim situation to protagonist of our own life:R
It came straight from your heart. Thank you for taking care of us. Take good care of yourself as well. 💐
Thank you so much for your tips and empowering words! Definitely going to implement these into my everyday life 🤍 Lots of love from Germany!
exactly what i thought as well, greetings from Berlin 😉
Sadia! You have been a true inspiration in my life since the day I came across Pick Up Limes. I have watched your videos to cheer myself up and to calm myself down. Having self depreciating and overly critical conversations in my own head is something even I have been guilty of doing. To watch you come out here and talk about this is reassuring. Thanks for being so awesome!
I agree, she is awesome!
Honestly you're the light of my youtube feed 🥺🥺
This☝️💖💖💖💖💖💖
Mine too!
She is! Such an angel.
I would absolutely love to see something on healing and recovering from life traumas. Particularly from childhood trauma, relationship with parents, subsequent anxiety, but any other kind of trauma we all go through in our lives and on healing generally - would absolutely love to hear your experience and outlook on this, Sadi! xxx
Thank you for being here Sadia, I appreciate your existence
The thanks is to you, Ameera, for being here 🤗
I have been a follower of pick up limes since 2019..I must say this is one of the few channels which consistently brings up good content on well being and healthy lifestyle.Whenever we are in stress ,brushing up some of the videos here brings up our spirit. Thanks Sadia!!!
Everything about this video is soooo aesthetic 💕 Okay I just made myself a giant latte ☕️🖤
Sadia, I just wanted to say that you are so inspiring and I look up to you. You calm me down everytime I watch your videos, and you can be confident in yourself!! You’re an amazing woman and I bet sooo many people enjoy your company!! When the borders get open, I would love to visit the netherlands! Lots of love from switzerland❤️❤️❤️
yes, my girl is back.
Yeah
I relate to this. Last year I realized all that alone time was making me so self consumed and very focused on what was not going right and ending up in a bad place mentally. Thank you for this Sadia
I missed this so much!! ❤️😭
Fuh real
Good morning Sadia! I don't know if you have observed me saying the same again and again but motivational videos that you make related to habits, how to come out of something, how to cultivate a habit etc are all my favs. The only thing I do when I am low is play your playlist of "health and wellness" multiple times, in a way I am emotionally connected to it! From my heart I really want you to make such videos coz u r just amazing ! Thank you, have a good day!!
@4:45 ayyyyee..Robin's lefty.. Lefty gang proud 😤
This applies to a lot in life. Add the details or descriptors. Don't tell a woman she's beautiful. Tell her she has a beautiful smile. Don't tell a friend you enjoy spending time with them. Tell the you enjoy spending time because they make you laugh or feel relaxed. Give it a purpose. Great video.
Your videos make my day! Thank you Sadia :)
Thank YOU for being here, Veenaa 🤗
You make me feel so calm. It's hard to describe the feeling but I could listen to you speak for hours
I love tea time Tuesdays ! ❤️
This was better than most self help videos ever! The mannerism in which we talk to ourselves can really make or break us at times! More of this type of content along with the dope cooking please!😊
Next topic request :- I don't want to hurt loved one by saying something in the heat of the moment. But I do. Any suggestion as to how not to lash out.
Such a good question!
@JYOTI, this is so me. I've mastered the art of telling someone I'm too impaired to talk at the moment. Then I write down how I feel and can reread it without leaving out what the issues were simply because I'm afraid of confrontation, and I'd much rather fester and confront an issue after three strikes so I don't think that I'm pretty or crazy. I hope this helps 😊
I imagine myself being the other person and what I would like to hear
I started working full time in March of last year and have felt like an absolute failure multiple times throughout. I have found incredible strength in giving myself the advice that I would give to friends. Positive, constructive self-talk is so important. Thank you for making this video! ❤️
“I need to treat myself better
I really can be so unkind
I know that I deserve better
If only you could hear what goes on in my mind
I wouldn't say the things I do to anybody else
So why's it okay to say to myself?
I need to treat myself better.”
- Victoria Justice, “Treat Myself.”
As someone who watches videos on 1.5x, I didn't realise I listened to you at Normal speed. I felt peaceful listening to you.. love the calm and positivity.😀😀🙏🙏
Stuck in my own head? My own biggest critc? Ya, story of my life.
I appreciate the advice to talk as if you were talking to someone else, I think that helps a ton. How often do we ever take our own advice?
How can i describe how much your video made me feel cozy and happy , the thing that you talking about to be specific in the nagging things didn’t come to my mind ever ,so thank u!!
You look stunning with this new hairdo ❤💛
Your videos put so much positivity in my life. It’s so easy to get so caught up in your daily life but sometimes your videos really ground me, and they are so calming and aesthetically pleasing. I love your content and you promote such a healthy attitude towards mental health and nourishing your body!!
When I hear Sadia's voice, I immediately start to smile, and I immediately want to press "like" )
Great points! Those pieces of advice such as identifying and noticing the "chatter," trying to treat myself the way I would treat someone else I care about, and avoiding making broad, absolutist statements are similar to strategies my counselor gave me to cope with depression. Great video, Sadia! 🌻🌷
OMG Nathaniel Drew cameo
Thank you for sharing, my Tuesday was the first day of my new life again. Second heart attack in four months. Will be going through your video’s looking for my new meals. God bless you.
