A WHOLESOME SELF-CARE DAY || Recognizing & getting through burn-out

#selfcare #cozyhome #rainyday
For the Pearl Ring! My friend's Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/l...
Hello, friends!
I'm currently working myself through a bit of a low. I miss my family terribly and am just so ready for us all to be healthy and able to socialize like normal once more. I've also been putting EVERYTHING into my videos and working double time in preparation for a trip I hope to take soon with Landon.
For whatever reason though, my videos seem to continually fall short in the KZbin algorithm (aka, I'm making way less money, getting far less views, and have been losing subscribers). Honestly, I'd be so happy if my channel could maintain it's current numbers! I don't need 100K subscribers or buckets of money-- I love this community so much as is and it's the interactions we share that fill me up. I'm just scared of my channel becoming obsolete if the downward trends continue. Also, it can be heartbreaking to pour your everything into a video and then watch it flop.
The bottom line is that I absolutely love making videos for you all each week and am in a constant state of awe that this is what I get to do for a living, that there are people all over the world who care about my life and share my interests. I simply want to continue to be able to do exactly this for the long run. Thank you so so very much for being a part of it all 💛
If you are feeling like you're in a low or just miss "normal" life terribly so, let this video be an invitation to take a self-care day and do alllll the things that lift you up. You absolutely deserved it!
Big hugs & lots of love,
Morgan

I always look forward to Fridays when your video shows up. This is my self-care. Your videos provide comfort to myself as well as to many others and they are of such high quality. No other channel comes close. Thank you Morgan, Landon and Mr. Roo.

[@victoriaamarilla4688]

Oh dear Morgan, your channel will never be obsolete, It is the perfect comfort channel here in KZbin and you're so inspiring and cute! Everytime a notification of your videos shows on my phone I think "finally, just what I need in this moment" thank you for the beautiful content, you are truly amazing.

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so so so much, Victoria friend ❤️

[@emmama3]

There is nothing that inspires me more than people like yourself! You are youtube who deserves more. You are more inspiring and humble than many MANY other larger KZbin platforms. Thank you Morggan for never giving up :)

[@natalien7026]

Connie seems precious!! It's so important to have people who believe in your dreams in your life. Wishing you the best Morgan!

[@bookqueen8040]

Emma is one of my favorite movies in the entire world!! I’m so glad that you enjoy it too.

[@itbmedesiree]

Connie is OUR friend now. She sounds absolutely lovely. I love friendships like that.

[@MorganLong]

She is absolutely lovely!!

[@Lindseyscozycorner]

Watching your videos with a hot cup of coffee is my self-care 😁☕✨🏞

[@MorganLong]

I'm so glad 🤗☕

[@92KittyCat]

Those forest shots are giving me chills! And Connie ❤️ The puzzle is so beautiful!

[@HanSan17]

I loved the kitchen dance party and the chat at the end. This video was a warm hug❤️

[@MorganLong]

Thank you, friend ❤️

[@roshmimukherjee8079]

Happy to see real self care that is not limited to "skin care". Self care is a holistic approach to well being and you have portrayed it so well!

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so much, friend!

[@Bizenghast55]

Your videos are filled with such joy and comfort! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into making them!

[@KristenMelissa]

Connie sounds Amazing! That puzzle was enchanting! The slow motion of you and Roo running through the beautiful forest, Wow! ✨🌲❤ This video left me feeling warm and fuzzy and comforted (as all of your videos do!). I have been extra focused on self care this week after starting to burn out and I feel a million times better. Self care is truly everything! Thank you as always for an incredibly wonderful video Morgan. It shows that you put your whole heart into these videos. 💗💗💗

[@kristinandj]

Maybe your channel isn't meant to grow (at least not now). Maybe your channel is here to attract fellow patreons and followers who would support you in all of your creative projects. You are probably not far away from creating this big bubble that will fulfilled everyone's heart and yours

[@MorganLong]

Thank you so so much for the words of wisdom and important reminder, friend

Wow. I absolutely look forward to your video each week, Morgan. I savor every moment spent watching them. Often times they are my self care. Or sometimes I like to break up watching them over a few days so they last even longer :) Thank you, Morgan for sharing your passion and life with us!

[@GaganUluvaru]

It's been few days since your video came out & my mood swings didn't let me watch it, sorry for that Morgan. It's always amazing to watch you motivate me & all of us, am lagging behind on lot of stuff & am trying to be better. Your videos always help me realize that I can be better one day, may not be today or tomorrow or in a month or a year, but one day am gonna be happy & it'll be genuine. Thanks for always being here...💜💜💜

[@emilycarlson3295]

Beautiful, as always! I don’t know how you do it, but you do and it’s always amazing. I cannot express my love for your videos - and you!!

[@angiemettler8770]

You’re so lucky to live in such a beautiful place! You’re videos are so peaceful!

[@aflutterofstars]

Watching your friend Connie make tea brought tears to my eyes. Such loving care in her gentle hand movements. I also got super excited when I saw the tea tin! It's my very favorite brand of chai! Definitely a bit spicy and intense, but it makes the most delicious lattes. As so many others have already said, your videos are part of _my_ self-care routine. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.

[@melanie6759]

Your videos always feel like a breath of fresh air! Thank you for your constant dedication and work to provide us lovely, cozy videos. Take care too 💕

[@marianerocha5153]

I wanted so badly to live in a place where there is a forest like that 🥺 One day I will live near a forest 💚

[@MorganLong]

Yes, you absolutely will!

[@theheltons4338]

Thank you for such a lovely video. I always look forward to Fridays with you. I’ve told several friends about your channel. You bring so much joy to my days! I got the same beautiful puzzle for Christmas. I love it. Every time I look at it, I notice something new. Take care my friend. You are a blessing to me ❤️ Beth

This video is just in time for me to relax, destress and enjoy self care after the time of burnout of work and overwhelmed. I can totally understand how you feeling and in need of self care and work responsibility. Love you 😍😘

[@mayahrasmussen]

Your videos are like a warm hug and comforting words from a dear friend✨ I have been a subscriber for roughly a year now and have been a patron member for about 6 months - your videos and posts always bring me som much joy. 🧡 I love how you appreciate the small things - like writing with a nice pen, drinking a cup of warm tea or cooking with family or friends. 🌼 I hope brighter days are finding their way to you ☀️ Have a wonderful weekend!

[@Nellierg]

My favorite video of the week!

[@Marie-ww3mb]

I love your videos so much ! Your content makes me remember how the simpliest things in life can be the more beautiful. Thanks to you, I now take time to simply walk into the forest next to my house, I take time to paint, I take time to just let my imagination run free. This, I hold it on to you and the magical place you create in your videos. I don't know if you realise how much your Art transforms life of other people around the world. This are just words but I hope they will pass to you all the love that you deserve. Once again, Love from France

[@edwardcortes6668]

Anytime you experience a burn out, simply meditate and take some deep breaths for 5 minutes and you will feel so much better. Experiencing nature is another great way to just relax and not worry about problems. I do like the video. Self care is something we always need in order to deal with obstacles. You need time for yourself. Your trip will do you good. Enjoy your weekend!!

[@MorganLong]

Self care, nature, remembering to breathe and manage our thoughts-- All very important parts of a fulfilling life! Thank you, friend!

[@Ashleanicol]

I wish I had that mug with the trees. Every time I see it I want it

[@curtwild86]

your videos get better and more interesting every week! And they're so soothing :)

[@FruitReader]

Your videos became my Saturday morning routine to begin a beautiful weekend full of work but also self-care. You make me smile and calm me every time I watch your videos, and as a person who is overthinking all day, it is a little miracle. Your channel will grow and become a bubble of comfort, happiness, and security for many people so don't give up, you will succeed. As a beautiful person said in every video, believe in yourself :)

[@villinaudasi5418]

Your videos have been self-care for me today💕

[@elizabethb.3932]

Great!

[@enchantedmindmeditation]

Thank you so much for this! I have been feeling so stressed out lately and have not taken time for myself to fill up my own cup. This was such a nice gentle reminder to slow down. Thank you

[@susannesindevski9295]

Hello Morgan, I have been watching your videos now for over a year and I have to say they are so well done, and like a lot of commenters have said, they are so cosy and calming we all look forward to sitting down and slowing down with you for some time to ourselves. I think your passion for what you do shines through so strongly that when the time is right big things will head your way. As a 51 year old woman living in Australia I can say that your videos reach very far and a lot of different people, and I for one find what you do inspiring. I look forward to watching what you create every week. I wish you all the best! ❤️❤️

[@kathleenbaker2791]

Love love love as always! The vide footage was amazing, you spoil us. And I was so waiting for you to give Landon's dinner a 7.869 and he gives it a 10/10! Such a stinker. How was the honey mama's, I have been looking for them locally to try. And the forest walk looked amazing, so lovely! Thank you for the much needed self care reminder. Your own oxygen mask first, easier said than done!!!! Have a lovely weekend friend.

[@MorganLong]

Thank you, friend

That said, I hope you get to take a break too, being creative and beautiful, whimsical and evocative on film all the time is sooo hard, I think your fans will understand and be even hungrier for your content if you have filming seasons and take a break here and there before another one starts. - Kasia

Dear Morgan. I've been having a rough week, feeling lonely and burnt out by school and covid. As you said in the description of your video, I'm also missing my friends and family and can't wait to socialize with everyone like normal. This video really was a form of comfort during my study break. A lot of your self care tips also help for me. The most important one being in nature. At home I live in a forest in Belgium and when away for school I live in the city in student housing. At home, I mentally feel the best because of the forest. It really makes my mind calm down. Thank you for this video (and all the other ones of course, they really are a form of comfort). As some other viewer said in the comments, your channel is a hidden gem. P.s. Emma is such a good movie! Next to Pride and Prejudice from 2005 it's also my comfort movie haha!

[@byaliciabrooke]
