    Hello friends! I really hope you enjoy this self care day in my life type video. This summer has taught me that self-care, love and healing happens from within. I've made it a goal to do one thing every day that makes me feel most like myself. As someone who is currently dealing with anxiety and stress, I've been really focusing on ways I can improve my mental health. Romanticizing life and enjoying the little things makes such a big difference. I hope any of you who might be struggling, will remember that even if it's something as little as watching a comfort movie or making yourself a meal, that's self-care, and it's so so important.
    Also, thank you for being so patient with me these past few weeks! I just shared on my Instagram stories why there has been a lack of videos recently. I've been dealing with some mental health stuff but I'm working my way back to my normal self. I couldn't force myself to make the videos when I was working through and processing so much as once.
    I especially want to thank my Patrons in Honeywood Hollow for their amazing support! Without you friends, I wouldn't have made it through this past month. I love you my bosom friends, you do so much more for me than you could ever imagine! 💞

    It’s so funny that we’re so concerned about what people will think of us when we dress up/dress for ourselves, but most of the time people are really positive and even inspired by seeing someone comfortable enough in their own skin to express themselves so uniquely.

    • @BrokenDharmaForge
      @BrokenDharmaForge 3 ปีที่แล้ว +49

      Agreed. From personal experience every time I go out and dress however I want and feel that day, unabashed by how odd it might be (imagine going to Walgreens with a wooden basket and yellow sundress) people have not only complimented me, but somehow seemed more...Im not good with words but, joyus to talk to me? Maybe it's just my own feels projecting but the world feels brighter and so do others when you live for you (with consideration to other of course).

      A couple of days I run into the kitchen and when I see my sister with "odd" shoes I giggled and she automatically said "this is something you'd wear". It's just so aesthetically pleasing to see people wearing unique clothes.

    I have been making my own flower crowns and wearing them everywhere everyday and I love it! It was kind of awkward at first, but now I feel so amazing and confident in them.

    I cried so hard. This life is the one I want. Everyone just seems to be against everything I do that makes me happy. Saying it's childish and being judgemental and giving me those looks that i hate so much. I can't do the things i love cause I'm always anxious and afraid of being harassed by doing what i love. And now I'm so broken and dead inside. I just wanna live like this. But i feel like my life is not mine. I can't control it. I can't live it. I don't belong to anything, not even to myself. They take me and throw me after using me. It sucks. I'm so tired and exhausted. I just wanna be free and happy. This video feels like home. Thank you so much for this Dessi💜

    Desi, I just want to say from one creator to another I understand what it takes to create. A lot of people might get confused as to why breaks and mental health are necessary for creators, but the huge amount of energy and pressure it takes to deliver consistently is hard. Especially when you deal with health issues or family-related issues (I watched your Insta story) Not to mention that people can be hateful towards your creations and it takes a whole deal of bravery to post in the first place. This video was beautiful. Thank you for creating it and thank you for taking the time to heal to let it surface.

    There are a few things I wish i could tell my younger self... One is this. Just like you dont care how people dress and what they dream about and do, no one cares how you dress and what you dream about and do. They may ne curious why or how, but at the end of the day, you have to do what makes your heart, mind, body and soul sing.
    I type this as I sit at my antique vanity, fixing my hair into a neat Gibson tuck, and then admire my handiwork in my vintage hand mirror, while wearing a floor length 6 gore skirt I sewed myself. Preparing to go let my goats and chickens out for the day, while dreaming of all the eggs i will soon gather (my chickens are all pretty young right now) I will chatter to my roosters and chit chat with my hens. I will hugs all the goats and pet them and croon to them. I will then fluff up my puppy and tell her what a dreamcake she is, so smart and pretty, and silly, then i will check in on my daughters ducks and the baby chicks and then back into the house to can banana pepper pickles, dry seeds for next year, and get to making dried jalapeño powder for seasoning future dishes.
    Create the life you wish to live, no apologies, no excuses. Love yourself so deeply and so wildly that nothing and no one can alter your path to self thriving beyond your wildest dreams. Be authentic to yourself

Thank you for putting so much love and time into these videos! The reminder that it is not selfish to love yourself literally brought me to tears. I struggle so much with that concept.

    I used to love life so much and see the world like a fairytail... But then, 13 years ago, depression came... And all i've ever tried just failed miserably in my life. I've turned myself into nothing but a sad failure... I'm so sorry for this outflow.
    At least i'm happy to see that there are people like you that didn't fail their path. You're a real inspiration. And i'm even glad to see that you're keep trying to get out of your confort zone and being who you really are despite what others might think. You are the bravest 💖

    when i was 12 i went to the library to pick up a poetry book i had to do a report on for school. on my way home i stopped by a really beautiful park and nearly read the entire book whilst sitting on a bench. but when i arrived home i was scolded for going to the park and reading; not for staying longer outside than i was supposed to. ever since that have i felt discouraged to do such things.
    only now, in my mid twenties, i have found courage to do it again, thanks to your videos and similar youtube channels. thank you < 3

    - Working on my blog that I've thrown away
    - Practicing the piano
    - Trying origami

    I came here to say, thank you.
    After years of truama, I've found it difficult to remember my magick, and how to love myself.
    The end of this video moved me to tears. You my darling helped break the thick ice that covered the portal to my self love and reawakening journey. I am still crying. But I'm crying because I realize I love myself, my magick isnt gone, and as you said, I am enough. Thank you so much. ❣️

I decorate my home in such a way tht reminds me of living in a cottage and kind of Marie Antoinette-ish. I was an English major before I switched my major and became a Medical Assistant; which has been a hard profession during COVID. I love watching your videos because they inspire me and they help me stay calm bc I suffer from PTSD and anxiety. Thank you so much for your videos and making us strange flower-hippie girls feel normal.

    Hello,
    My name is Jeff Finch, I am a trans FTM. And I have to say you are truly an inspiration of how to teach people about overcoming personal demons and emotions. I have a lot of anxiety and depression and even if I'm transitioning at my pace, it happens a lot. I tend to be playing the big brother a lot and I never get time for self-care because I feel I don't deserve it or I just don't know how. Your videos truly pure and hopeful for me and my future. How you take self-love to a whole whimsical level, no matter how feminine it is. I hope to one day to reach at your level self-love and self-care. When I watch your videos it makes feel calm, almost like reading Anne of Green Gables but it called Darling Desi of Self Happiness or something even more magical then that (as well deserving). I hope to soon buy books again and read, to play video games like I use to, and be able to be healthier (mind, body, and soul). Thank you so much for sharing your life and giving me a moment to breathe and feel human again. To feel the love and self-love I forgotten while growing up in challenging times.

    Maybe I can help with the tiramisù :) . I'm from Treviso, Italy, where tiramisu originated. Let me pass on the original recipe!
    Ladyfingers 11 oz (300 g)
    Eggs 4 (220 g) - very fresh (medium sized)
    Mascarpone cheese 2 ¼ cups (500 g)
    Sugar ½ cup (100 g)
    Coffee 1 ⅓ cup (300 g) - strong, freshly brewed on the stove (and sweetened to taste)
    Unsweetened cocoa powder to taste - for the top layer
    To prepare tiramisù, start with very fresh eggs: carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks, remembering that to whip the egg whites well they must not contain any trace of yolk. Then whip the egg yolks with a hand mixer, pouring in only half of the sugar . As soon as the mixture has become clear and frothy and with the mixer still running, you can add mascarpone cheese, little by little . When all the cheese is incorporated, you will have obtained a thick and compact cream; set it aside . Clean the mixer attachments very well and beat the egg whites, pouring in the remaining sugar a little at a time .
    Whisk them into stiff peaks; you will know they're ready if the mixture does not move when you overturn the bowl. Take a spoonful of egg whites and pour it into the bowl with egg yolks and sugar and stir vigorously with a spatula, to thin the mixture . Then proceed to add the remaining egg whites, little by little, stirring very gently from bottom to top.
    Once ready, place a generous spoonful of cream on the bottom of a 12x8in baking pan and spread it evenly. Then soak the ladyfingers for a few moments in the cooled coffee, which you will have sweetened to your liking ,
    first on one side and then the other. Arrange the soaked ladyfingers on top of the cream , side by side, to create the first layer, over which you will spread part of the mascarpone cheese cream.
    Make sure to level it carefully so that you have a smooth surface 16. Continue to arrange the coffee-soaked ladyfingers . then add another layer of cream .
    Level the surface, sprinkle it with unsweetened cocoa powder, and allow it to set in the fridge for a couple of hours . Your Tiramisù is ready to be enjoyed!
    Alternatively for a lighter version you can substitute the coffee with fruit juice ( orange is the best ) and add strawberries in the mascarpone 😊😊

    I’ve been taking a break from Desi’s content lately, not for any particular reason aside from tuning into other interests/TH-camrs focused on discipline, exercise, nutrition, etc.
    To be fair, I’m interested in all of these things but watching Desi again made me realize I was putting off enjoyment for the sake of enjoyment in favor of productivity.
    So, barely halfway into this video, I’m taking a break to have tea and Biscoff while watching a movie I’ve been meaning to watch forever (Howl’s Moving Castle) with people I love :)

    The song 'Ivy' by Taylor Swift (a cover of it was played during the rainy reading scene) is the perfect autumnal song. In fact, a lot of evermore's songs give me true autumnal vibes. So cosy. It is one of my favourite songs so it was nice to hear it in the video.
