1. Make your bed 2. Do your beauty routine 3. Keep a workout routine 4. Get dressed 5. Eating proper meals 6. Get outside 7. Tidying up Thanks, Christina!

[@aliwarren5110]

Last one - cut out alcohol

[@thebestwillow]

Fold your duvet towards the foot of the bed in the morning instead. It still makes the bed neat, but allows the top half (where most of the sweat, dead skin cells etc., accumulate, to air. Easy enough to pull the top half of the duvet back up just before bedtime.

[@grazsts3005]

This is no criticism whatsoever, I love your videos. A tip though, as I once worked in a bed/mattress shop, it's not ideal to make the bed in the morning. As we sweat during the night, all this moisture is soaking the mattress. The best, is to leave the mattress to air for the day. Half dressed beds, done in the morning, may give the benefit of both the airing the mattress as well as making the bed tidy.

[@33Jenesis]

I fold my blankets (one in summer, two in winter). I don’t use flat sheets and comforter. Blankets are easier to launder regularly.

[@Aileenwasright]

Yep. I always fan fold my sheets and quilt towards the foot of the bed. Leaves most of the mattress open to dry without fully stripping it. Also a good idea to open the blinds and let the sunlight shine directly on your bed as this helps deal with any dust mites that love the dark.

[@ksmith9333]

It depends on the climate you live in. I live in a dry climate, so fold the covers back and wait for an 30 minutes to an hour before I make the bed. But the best solution is washing the sheets once a week. 😊

[@ksmith9333]

Intermittent Fasting has many great health benefits. Skipping meals does not mean skipping calories. When you eat, you need to eat the same amount of healthy foods to sustain you, just in a shorter time period. 😊

[@sekayiperkins7448]

I do that when I take my shower off before putting on new sheets

[@cynthiajohnston424]

An additional thing is to do for others - it may be as simple as donating to your local animal shelter or a " coats-for-kids " request . When we give joy to others , we experience happiness too - great mental wellness booster !

[@hikinggsdmom8754]

I am “one of those people who hike”, and it’s the best way to start my morning. At 5am each day, my dog and I get up and head to the woods for a 3 mile hike. To be out in the crisp morning air and watch the sun come up through the trees is the perfect way to start my morning before heading off to work. While I know this routine isn’t for everybody, I wouldn’t start my mornings any other way.

[@elliewells]

Cold showers! They are the best mood boosters! I just done 2 mins and I was giggling by the end of it. So good!

[@Kaori57]

Trueee! I hate the thought of doing it, but after I actually do it, I feel great.

[@nikki7287]

I'm definitely going to try this.

[@mariguzman7752]

Love your content Christina ❤️

[@ronniepeters8816]

You put your videos together in such a unique way. It's always uplifting, with something to learn, and a pleasure to watch!

[@krystiesolfyre5340]

Your videos are always so encouraging and relatable. Thanks for the encouragement 💜

[@carolynm.8868]

Thank you for sharing some of your life ! I especially like the realistic steps you are taking, I find that inspirational.

[@sazzabell21]

I really needed this ❤ thank you xxx

[@Ezarhia]

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite Channels 😊

[@cindyboughen9933]

Great advice, Christina. It makes me feel better to know that even an accomplished woman like yourself can slip out of good habits and routines. Thank you for this😍

[@mansoor3159]

Thank you so so so much Christina for this video because its truly truly helpful to me in my life and I love your vlogs so so much and I wish you reach 200K Subscribers very very soon!☺️✨💞

[@rachelmallory3734]

❤I feel this. Especially the eating well- makes a big difference in my overall mood and attitude.

[@denisekirshenbaum7798]

I’m really enjoying your videos. All of these suggestions are great!

[@heatherframpton9693]

Thanks, Christina! ❤😊 I appreciate your insight for resets. 😊 Yes to setting a timer & working beyond it if feeling it! 😊

[@myrnaj4502]

Thank you for the content ❤️❤️

[@lindaespinosa4390]

Thank you so much, the seasonal depression was getting and this gave me a push

[@thebestwillow]

I like to start resetting with taking a long bath. I find it helps me think through what things I've let slip, make a plan for getting back on track with them, and obviously I catch up on all my bathing things in the meantime.

[@twilacreaser4138]

Love the routine! As for chicken breast, try sprinkling both sides with Montreal steak spice (yes, the one for steak) and bake in the oven at 375 for about 35 min.(for 4). Great with a salad, in a wrap, in a protein bowl. Easy and delicious.

[@astrogothiqa]

Love this. Thank you! I suffer from seasonal depression and the lack of sunlight in the winter really affects me. Having a routine really helps. I also do meal prep. As for chicken tasting good, I separate chicken portions in baggies, (you can use reusable baggies or tupperwear) and I season the chicken in a mixture of garlic powder, rosemary, parsely or even just a bit of sea salt or adobo. Then I just put the baggies in the freezer until I'm ready to cook. It saves so much time. 😊

[@TraceB]

You could check into sun lamps/ light therapy. They are under $50 & it helped me during the winter when I lived in PA & had s.a.d.☀️

[@Kaori57]

Yesss, Adobo is magic for real. Lol

[@annepepper8805]

If I can manage i try to unplug, literally: as little smartphone scrolling and screens in general as possible and keeping busy without it for the whole day, really slows the brain down in a good way.

[@jillhernandez9299]

you are amazing!!!

[@greenwitch914]

Omg this is the first video I’ve seen in a while and the haircut is soooo cute !

[@albertmeursault]

thank you for making this. needed it :) loving your videos aka- binging YT vids

[@janelandry6584]

good reminders. I am in such a rut!

[@sekayiperkins7448]

I also started making my bed and just signed up for ymca for pool sauna and whirlpool. Meal prep needs major attention

[@ChristysChannelYall]

Okay, so for the chicken breast. Put a little olive oil in a nonstick pan and put the burner on a medium setting. Put lemon pepper and garlic salt on your chicken and put in the pan after it has heated up a little. Flip the chicken immediately and put fresh squeezed lemon juice over it and season this side with lemon pepper and garlic salt. Cook for 20 or so minutes, flipping as minimally as you can. It turns out SO good! I put this on salad or pasta or just eat it with a vegetable side. Hope that helps!

[@Christinamychas]

Thank you! My chickees always turn out like flavourless rubber balls! 🫠😂

[@ChristysChannelYall]

Oh bless your heart 😂😂 well, I’m from the southern US and we believe in some spices down here so spice that stuff up and you’ll get the hang of the timing! When it gets a little char on it that’s when it’s perfect 👌

[@loisbats4972]

Favourite (lifestyle) channel ❤️ Hope you are doing well!

[@Jessxo13]

Thoughts: 1. The cowboy boots: I have a similar pair collecting dust and you’ve inspired me to create an outfit! 2. I’ve been into real estate shows recently as well. Selling Sunset and Selling the OC are my faves. 3. The actual process of cleaning is also very calming, so I’m clearing my mind as I’m clearing my space. And taking care of my stuff makes it last longer too *yay*!

[@lizzabbott]

Love your videos ! You R def in my top 5 fav channels ! I’m jus sayin’ ! Love from Buffalo ! Liz

[@chokhmahsapienta7969]

This was fantastic ! Thank you for making this, will definitely check out co Pilate 👍🏻

[@catherineb.7975]

Hello, thanks for your vidéo. I do quite the same as you, I would add journaling to my own routine and going to walk in a parc or in contact with the nature.

[@louisejones6824]

Moroccan seasoning for your chicken breast!! Pan fry with the lid on to keep it from drying out. Game changer 🤤🤤🤤

[@miaik-]

My step one is to switch the bed side lamp on. Even if I snooze the alarm, it's a tiny bit of light to help me get up. I've positioned mine little bit below our be, so it doesn't shine in to my eyes, but it's not too dark either. It helps especially when during winter it's dark till 10 (still until 9, even tho the sun is getting up earlier every day) I also grew up and lived in a "ingredient household", I just gave myself permission to get some snacks as high fiber snackbars, because eating something is always better than eating nothing. I also find myself forgetting to eat and when I truly feel like I'm in a rut, it's really hard to force myself to make food and usually after the snack I feel like making food anyways.

[@rachelenochs4685]

Quick tip to try: use low sodium taco seasoning on your chicken breasts before tossing in the oven. Super easy & very tasty! 😋

[@bevalexander5897]

Great video! Now I have to go change the sheets on my bed….

[@33Jenesis]

Every point is on point! I am doing all of them except alcohol;). I don’t drink alcohol.

[@s.sflower]

Love it

[@jessicacano7702]

I really needed that video 😊 What model of Dyson vacuum do you have?

[@Christinamychas]

V11! My bday gift to myself last year haha

[@candiceg9338]

Chicken with salsa! You can bake, fry or crock pot it. Delicious 🤤

[@lindseye2750]

Thank you, I appreciate this so much. I thought I was the only one who’s jeans were tighter after wearing leggings too often

[@victoriasalinas33]

Lemon pepper seasoning for chicken breast!

[@2alexwest]

Can you share where your olive-y blanket/quilt on your bed is from? It’s lovely!

[@Christinamychas]

It’s from KOTN!

[@2alexwest]

@@Christinamychas thank you!

[@annieblue4291]

Thanks for the ´´screw you IF’´ comment. I can’t go trough a day without a breakfast! And intermittent fasting is definitely not for me.

[@kaylanorberg9239]

To help make chicken breasts taste better, try spice blends. It makes cooking easier in general. They typically say what meat they go with and take out some of they thinking.

[@luizamoreiracantini8941]

I like to marinade chicken breasts overnight - salty water will go a long way already, but adding some pepper, paprika or whatever spices you have around is even better! And it's pretty hands-off, time will do the job for you and you only need to bake/grill it like you normally would

[@elfi_666]

soy sauce works great, too :)

[@loveleenkaur7385]

❤

[@greenwitch914]

Trying to crowdsource here - what about if you get up way earlier than your partner ? I try to ask him to be the bed maker but it doesn’t always happen and then it’s like doing it later in the day for me doesn’t have the same get started feeling good vibe idk…

[@makailasumpmanhouser2067]

A great option if you have an issue getting enough healthy caloric intake is protein shakes!

[@sylviepare5957]

Cutting as much as possible eating on front of the TV or with a cell phone. Sitting down on a chair at a dining table! That's one of the secret of the french!

[@dreemskaype]

How to make chicken taste good: Brine it. This has been a game changer for our Chicken based meals.

[@Lala-artart]

Came for motivation. Left with motivation and the feeling of being terribly single. Thanks though girly 😔✊

Please link your phone case ❤ thank you!

[@LyLy-ct9ib]

The way to make chicken breasts taste good: Leave them at the store. Buy chicken thighs instead. You’re welcome. 😉

[@Christinamychas]

lol no truer truth has been spoken

[@sarahmc8309]

Yep i got rid chicken as full hormones and was making me gain unhealthy toxic water weight .I ate more fish instead lamb and some beef and game changer ! My son love chicken but only chicken tighs or legs haha 😂

[@DoniFitz]

Chicken breasts taste good when you brine them. Or you could butterfly them or cut them in half so you don't have to cook them as long which leads to drying out. :)

[@gerigaskill785]

"Screw you, intermittent fasting" 🤣

[@dimachadosantos]

Making chicken breast taste good: paprika :D

[@aly_titovets]

The only way to get the chicken breast taste better is to completely ditch it and go for chicken thighs instead😅

[@Christinamychas]

Lol this is the truest truth 😂👌

[@user-im3os5xf8i]

The best way for me to reload is to avoid reading the news for at least 4 hours. Helps a lot, because it is a torture to live in constant fear for your beloved ones 24/7.

[@mangouni]

Making the bed right away is slightly unhealthy. It is better to let the bed air out and dry, rather than cover it up straight away. Its mostly because of mites.

[@chiarascura7574]

But isn’t making your bed the most usual thing to do ? Are there adults in this world who don’t do it ?

[@chiarascura7574]

You should have 80%veg and 20% protein otherwise you risk colon cancer

[@chiarascura7574]

These daily routines are all identical honestly . No offence but it’s boring

[@tilialindenbaum3114]

For really tasty (and healthy) chicken recipes, I strongly recommend Lisa Bryan and her channel Downshiftology here on KZbin. Changed my life … ❤
