Coffee Talks in Japan | Opening Up, Therapy & Body Image

Opening Up About Therapy | Today’s video is sponsored by BetterHelp | Use my link www.betterhelp.com/sanne for 10% off your first month of BetterHelp therapy!
Hi loves,
I've been really looking forward to this week's video because I always enjoy the "Coffee Talks" video as they are kind of my own form of therapy to just let everything on my mind that I am feeling out and being more vulnerable or open with all of you.
I'm going to be completely honest, it is harder to open up for me a lot of times because I have always been such a "go-getter" and hustler in life. It has been something I have been working so hard on as of lately, along with my weight gain journey, that have both really forced me outside my comfort zone. Something that has truly helped me work through these life changes is talking to someone, and just expressing your feelings out loud. This is why I find platforms and outlets like BetterHelp to be such a game changer when it comes to your mental health.
If you have been looking to try therapy but are still a little on edge about starting, I highly recommend using my link to receive 10% off your first month's subscription you can find here: www.betterhelp.com/sanne
Please let me know in the comments, or send me a message on Instagram about how you are liking therapy if you try it, or what helps you when you are feeling overwhelmed and anxious. I would love to know!
xx

This video was such cozy, fall vibes. I 💚 the coffee/matcha chats! And thank you for your vulnerability in sharing your experiences with self-perception, fear of letting others down, and sharing more of your journey in these videos. As a former people pleaser I can relate to feeling overwhelmed in life and it’s easy to forget no one has it all perfectly together 24/7! Thank you for the reminder we are not in this alone. Seeing you love and good vibes!

I love you so much, your videos give me a cosy vibe for my soul I feel like I am watching my best friend video .

[@SanneVloet]

I'm so glad to hear this 🥹

[@lizl1855]

“I’ve always tied my identity to things I’m doing or achieving rather than just being”. That’s a really powerful statement and provokes some deep thought for me!! Thank you, Sanne. ❤ It’s important to work on perspective and know that while we can be achieving the most, working on being happy and content at our core should take priority.

[@SanneVloet]

Hi Liz!! You are so welcome. I agree it’s so important to make our happiness and mental health a priority before anything else!

[@jiggy1992]

Nagano has beautiful nature, so please enjoy it. Wasabi is also a specialty, so be sure to try it.

[@lanierhandyy]

I’m so with you. Transitioning into a healthier body and wanting to become stronger is a lot harder mentally and physically, so you talking about this has really inspired me to keep going and embracing it. I still definitely have my days of negative self talk and disorder eating thoughts but fighting them and using positive energy really helps. Especially with the holiday I really want to approach it with a balance mindset from being restrictive in the past.

[@SanneVloet]

I totally understand! This can be a very tough time for some people, especially when it comes to restrictions with food. I follow an 80/20 rule with food and try my best to eat intuitively! It has helped so much with listening to hunger cues and enjoying all foods ❤️

Hey Sanne ❤

[@SanneVloet]

Hello!!!

[@user-cy2yq7qf4o]

Yes, I read a lot of Tony Robbins. His books and videos really help me a lot. Funny thing - after a few years of listening to him I still could not afford to buy ticket for his live event when he came to my country... it was 500 USD then

[@SanneVloet]

His conference is definitely spendy, but such an investment in your personal growth! I got SO much insight and inspiration from it.

[@josealfonsosilvalatorre1826]

Your are my better help to me :)I was waiting your vlog always give me positive vibes ❤❤.

[@user-bc6xn5wo5j]

Sanne, thank you so much for this video. I can not even express how much the humbleness and openness that you showed in this video helped me to accept where I am. These feelings that you have are so real and it is so strong that you are sharing these and through this, you help others to accept their feelings, too, and not to push them away. Knowing that everyone, no matter what status, gender, or any other trait, can feel fear, stress, uncertainty, or any other uncomfortable feeling is so important to accept these feelings internally and to realize that it it so normal and so human to feel and go through these. Thank you, Sanne, for sharing, for being real, for being you! It is very empowering💗

[@SanneVloet]

You me words mean a lot to me! Thankyou so much I appreciate it. It’s not always easy putting it out there but I know how many of you are going trough the same thing!

[@Kitofthearts]

Hello sanne, I can relate and empathise with a lot of the subjects which you covered. I sometimes wonder whether the negative self talk comes from being in competitive environments with others? I am also battling with these aspects of the id & enjoy sharing my thoughts with a therapist, although sometimes my parents have to endure the pain of hearing how I work things out. I feel the disturbance which you sense in your body could be related to frequencies from electro magnetic fields. I really enjoyed listening & sometimes wonder, if you may find more purpose from becoming a health practitioner or learning about the science of biomechanics & posture. You are clearly a highly sensitive person & maybe able to pick up emotions and intentions of other people very easily, which can be challenging when working in the world of business, without the education to support & inform you. That has been my experience anyway. I am going to stop rambling now, and hope that you are well & look forward to catching up with you in the future. Kind regards, Kit

Hey Sanne! I am going through a similar situation as you are. For years now I have been suffering with eating disorder. Now I am trying to build muscle, and tone up my body. But it’s so hard to transition from one state to another. But watching you and just listening to you makes me even more determined to work towards my goals. Longs story short I just wanted to say THANK YOU for sharing your experience and thoughts with us. You have no idea how much you are helping me with your words, with your actions and last but not least with SSB. Lots of love ❤

Thank you so much, it means a lot to hear from so many of you such positive feedback about me opening up about my mental health and my health journey overall!

It is so good that you speak honestly about body image because in your position as a model it feels honestly so refreshing to hear that you are a human with a body with the same doubts and insecurities. The more we speak openly the more people will feel free to share their own thoughts and stories. So thank you!! This is worth alot.

[@SanneVloet]

YES! I agree to this 100%. It’s been such a stand off-ish topic to talk about in the modeling industry for so long. I think more people should share their story as it inspires so many others to do the same! ❤️

Growth and change can be good, but so can the easeful plateaus in between. Fertile ground requires seasons of rest, constantly forcing growth depletes living things and systems. Having your period back will help you rediscover this very important rhythm in life ❤

[@energyangel]

I'm also going through a similar experience in gaining weight, working through disordered eating and making sure i'm getting enough protein and nutrients to nourish my mind and body. At the end of September I decided to de-activate my socials and get off birth control to ease tension and external influence during this cycle. Your video where you were going through your jeans helped me go through mine, getting rid of those jeans I know I only ever fit by engaging in disordered eating without feeling bad about myself. Thank you for showing your vulnerability. It helped me realize I have a strong attachment to being a specific size and knowing someone else was going through a similar process of getting rid of clothing that no longer fit, allowed me to embrace the process even more. It is funny how I know when I restrict carbs, my curves shrink, and when I cultivate a balanced approach, I like what I see in the mirror better, but then I go to put on the jeans and instantly feel bad. Getting rid of them and replacing them with what fits my body takes away a level of mental strain
