To the person who sees this: Safety encircles you. You're fully capable. You're just as you need to be. You'll conquer this, just like you've conquered many obstacles before. And know, this too shall pass. 🌸🌌🌙
I just want to tell you that I deeply appreciate you. It's hard for me to see that shadow of sadness peeking through your beautiful eyes. Despite the distance and time, you are always present in my thoughts and my heart. I only wish the best for you because you deserve it: you bring kindness and empathy to an increasingly selfish world. Those acts don't go unnoticed by the universe. That gentle smile and carefree demeanor should shine once again. This week, my thoughts and positive energy are dedicated to you.
Hi, Maple and Happy Sunday!😊😊😊😊😊😎☀🌌💙💙💙💙💙💙🌷💖💖💖💖💖💖🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇👍. This is the best guided meditation video I've ever seen. It makes me feel calm and silent when I looked at the sun and the sky is blue.😎☀. Then, last year in November, my mom had passed away at the hospital and she didn't make it.😢😢. So, I went to the bathroom, close my eyes and start praying🙏. After that, I played a sad instrumental music called "Last Flight" by Jan Hammer when the sky is light after the wildfires in Canada last year. So, now, this year in 2024, my positive ideas is to go outside, looking at the boats in the water, practicing my dance moves and find a small town somewhere in Minnesota.💙💙💙💙💙💙💙👍. So...yeah. Thank you for this meditation, Maple. You're the greatest ASMR person in the world. Cheers to new beginnings for you and everyone.😊😀😙💙💙💙💙💙💙🍾🎉🌷💖💖💖💖💖💖😊🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇👍
I am enjoying waking up Monday to a new mindfulness meditation video, i was really looking forward to today's. (It helps that I'm able to work from home on Mondays, so I have some extra time). After I watched (slash listened to) your video, I drew my card of the day while thinking about aspects of myself and of the world that I appreciate. I drew the seven of pentacles, which I understand to be a card about reflection, investment and reward. Looking back, reflecting on individual labor and the gifts it brings into the world, and the possibilities opened up as a result. Today I appreciate myself for the ways in which I stay connected with my loved ones. And I appreciate the ways in which my efforts help to improve their lives. I'm specifically remembering an old friend, who once told me about something I said to them that always stuck with them, even though i didn't remember saying it. Isn't life funny that way?
I love how introspective your tarot readings are! Next week is insight, so you'll have a field day with that one! I also like how genuine your appreciations of yourself seem. It's a good show of character to put in the time and effort to show our loved ones that we care. And life is funny like that, sometimes the most mundane things can become key memories for whatever reason.
Hi Maple 🙂 It's obvious that you care about other people just by the fact that you make not only ASMR videos but also you make these mindfulness videos as well. I definitely appreciate you and your caring nature. Also, I enjoy the face brushing trigger. I hope you are having a good week. 🤗
I'm so happy to hear that! It's actually been especially cathartic for me as well, as researching and writing the outlines for the different sections has brought me a lot of peace and insight for my current life as well. Hope you are well!
@@MapleWhispersASMR It's getting better every day. Thank you for the work and effort you put into what you do. Know that it brings results and is very helpful in these difficult times.
Your video is of exceptional quality! You are truly wonderful, dear friend. Thank you for all your beautiful explanations, with you everything becomes so clear. It's great to have activated the subtitles, it's a plus😉🥰💙
So glad to hear that my friend! I always have the subtitles activated, although sometimes the AI can't figure out whispering or if it's too soft spoken 😂
@@MapleWhispersASMR That’s very kind of you, dear Maple. Yes, for activated subtitles, there are sometimes funny symbols that appear😃 Pleasant evening to you, dear friend🥰 Take care of yourself🤗💟
I've never actually had that many stressful meetings, I just feel like it's a common enough thing that a lot of people deal with haha I used to work in f&b management, now I'm self employed and have a few different ventures to bring in money :)
@@MapleWhispersASMR thats so interesting! I work in software sales and I'm looking for ways to diversify my income with side hustles. Something I can keep in mind!
3:33 Sometimes you don't even need to have a positive mindset. It's possible to "fake it 'til you make it" and get the snowball rolling by pretending to be positive - or "presenting positivity" as a nicer term, which can elicit a genuine positive response in the other person, and then that ends up helping you to feel positive for real.
I think that's a really good point about mindfulness! A lot of the times when the meditation is saying "find something to be positive for", it's not expecting you to suddenly become overcome with positive feelings automatically, it's a slow process that you kind of fake at the start
@@MapleWhispersASMR Yes. I think that goes towards intentionality. You've helped me be more proactive in creating a positive mood (like making a playlist of happy songs) rather than idle in neutral and be reactive, waiting for something to happen that creates more positive mood.
I try to think of it as being secure with yourself, so that you can treat others better. You may care for someone but if you aren't emotionally available that can definitely project on others. Also a a side note, I saw several platforms where today is "national couples day". For crying out loud didn't we just have New Year's and Valentine's is coming up? Whatever it takes to sell more merchandise TBH😄
Lots of wisdom on this video. I think there are some philosophical topics in this video that can lead to longer conversations. For example, I never thought about that negativity helps us survive, but it’s an interesting point to analyze further. Or that a snowball of kindness could be started. Or that when working in an office people feel afraid of bad consequences ( I think that although the world seems very civilized, it’s still a tough place) . And includes lots of good advice. You definitely are a snowball of kindness Maple
The negativity helping us survive was like a little lightbulb moment for me, I had never thought of it that way! For me at least I can get in these negative thought spirals, and then I feel bad about feeling bad, and then it just gets worse and worse. But now I feel like I can stop them easier, just by taking a moment to step back and think is there actually something to worry about, or is it just the nature of my mind.
@@MapleWhispersASMRI’m sorry that that happens to you too, but at least it is good that seems like is not a defect and it’s actually like a spidey sense that helps us and gives us warnings about things we have to address.
I always experience the opposite effect. I could be doing fine but as soon as I see some cheesy “just-be-positive” message it sends me down a whole depressive spiral.
I find at times (most of the time) ! these types of messages are really helpful I think generally the meditations and ASMR videos I listen to are very therapeutic, and facilitate relaxation and growth But on occasion, I understand that totally, I have the same effect - and I think it is the expectation, or the fact that I can’t seem to put myself in that mindframe, and then I have frustration or it unveils an inner critic maybe ? On those days, I just try something else that resonates emotionally and try not to judge myself for a day I’m irritable or what have you
@@prismaticwellness3970 I think a big misconception about meditating is that the aim is to sit there thinking about nothing, or just something simple like breathing and have no other thoughts... but really it's just about noticing when our mind wanders off, and then bringing it back to being mindful. It's the practice of doing this that then spreads to everyday life. So I know it's easier said than done, but try not to be too hard on yourself! Even if you go through a whole meditation and feel like you didn't do any of it correctly, just the act of taking a moment to try to be intentional about mindfulness is still something that helps, and something you should be proud of!

Thank you my friend. It's been a tough month, but I should come out the other side even better for it. Doing my best to keep my head up :)

Such an insightful video! You are a gem, Maple! ❤
Thank you so much, I'm glad you were able to take something from the video :)
You make me smile.
Oh good, I'm glad! 😌
thank you for bringing mindfulness into asmr! you talked about stressful meetings, can I ask what your day job is?
I've never actually had that many stressful meetings, I just feel like it's a common enough thing that a lot of people deal with haha

Seeing a new video of yours always puts a smile on my face Maple ❤
Awh you're so sweet!
I've been training for a medical transport job and it's been a stressful few weeks. I needed this today.
So glad you could find a moment of peace my friend 😌

And it is important to know how to calm down that hyper alert mode that in excess is deleterious, and your advices and ASMR videos are really helpful.
@@omarviera8572 for sure, it is really important!
🙂
Hey Maple!
Hello Kevin 😊
I always experience the opposite effect. I could be doing fine but as soon as I see some cheesy “just-be-positive” message it sends me down a whole depressive spiral.
❤
Like if you have to ask ok but how do I get there or I just can't.
Hmm, interesting. Why do you think that is? I hope you find a way to find positive aspects of life :)
I find at times (most of the time) ! these types of messages are really helpful
I think generally the meditations and ASMR videos I listen to are very therapeutic, and facilitate relaxation and growth
