How I eat and train during the holidays

Do you find it hard to maintain a healthy relationship with your mind, body, the gym and food throughout the holidays? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. In this video I share with you how I handle this, including my best advice and heart-to-heart talks during the first couple of holiday-weeks. Food is included, some gym stuff and just the only positivity and vibes I want to send out. Get comfortable with a drink, some xmas snacks and enjoy watching. I hope you will.

I sincerely hope you enjoy yourself during the holidays and that this video was comforting for you to watch. It can be a difficult time to find and most importantly, hold on to a mindset in which you find yourself comfortable in. Eat that extra cookie, sleep in, live life to the fullest, and spend these days amongst people you love. That’s what I plan to do! :)

[@nemofish4937]

thank you for the lovely reminder, katharina!! i hope you’re taking your comeback to youtube slowly and enjoying yourself, most importantly! best wishes 🤍

[@katharinaschneiderr]

I definitely am! Thank you so much. Have the best holidays! 🫶🏼

[@louhowl7552]

Hello Katharina, I hope you are doing well ! I have been following you for quite some time right now and i just wanted to thank you. Your videos always inspire me and bring me comfort. The outlook and thoughts you share encourage me as well. I am sure I am not the only one feeling this way. I always look forward to your posts. You just ooze of kindness. And i hope my words are not pressuring cause this would be the last of my intentions. Thank you so much for just being you.

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Thank you so much! You’ve put such a huge smile on my face and I am eternally grateful, that you take the time to write this to me. In these moments, when I try my best to come back to make videos in the right way, I take in all your words 100%. It’s truly what motivates me but also reminds me of why I’m actually doing it! So thank you! ❤️❤️

[@johannast1]

Hey Katharina! I am usually a very quiet watcher when it comes to to yt videos and I never comment anything but I feel like I want to tell you this. You are one of my biggest inspirations and I really love your content. The way you talk, the reflection that you have and the aesthetic that comes with it is just beautiful. I hope you have a great holiday season without any bad thoughts about yourself. You are truly amazing and you can be so proud of yourself! Take care🧡

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Hi dear! Thank you so much. I literally have no words to describe how important this is to me - hearing your thoughts! Thank you for taking the time to comment and let me in on your reflections. It’s the best reminder I can get as to why I continue to do, what I do. Thank you for being here! xx

[@sophiaklein5944]

Loved this style of video, I think it was one of your best. Really nice mixture of content from your week and helpful and inspiring points regarding food, exercise and recovery. Really great balance 😊

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Thank you so much! I’m really happy you think so. One thing is that I personally think it’s a great video but hearing it from you is what I need! Thank you☺️

[@ditz3nfitness]

Always tell yourself this... "Is it worth restricting food, not showing up to social gatherings, or something else, during the holidays, when some day your chance of doing so with those loved once will be gone?" One day, those people you love, and those you share the holidays with, especially Christmas, will be gone, and I'm sure it'll be the hardest regret you'll ever experience. Don't let food control holidays. They're here for a reason. To gather with your loved ones. Those you don't see often. Experience and spend time with those while you can! ❤🎄

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Exactly as I mentioned! It's so important! :)

[@sarahnorman9521]

I really enjoyed this video Katharina!!! I’m praying for you to have the most wonderful Christmas!

[@katharinaschneiderr]

[@simonehoejbo]

Happy holidays to you too!❤️

[@madelyn.mckean]

I just wanted to say thank you. I've been dealing with my own recovery, some days it's so easy to just enjoy, but some days it is very hard. Your videos are such an inspiration for me. when I'm having a bad day, I look to your videos for inspiration because they help me so much. thank you for everything you do, and thank you for being honest and open. :)

[@katharinaschneiderr]

This warms my heart so so so SO much! Thank you Madelyn, I believe in you!

[@mariewreth1918]

I have just recently discovered your KZbin Videos and I am already in love. With not just your editing skills and the way you film your videos but also with your mindset. You really inspire me and I am really great full for that. Thank you :)

I love this content! Glad you didn’t take a super long break I missed you! Xx hope you are doing well x

[@katharinaschneiderr]

The amount of love I received after posting the video prior to this one, convinced me quickly. So I guess I can say thank YOU! Hope you're doing great too xx

[@alicialamarche4819]

Such a good video, it's this type of content that helps me grow as a person and it's also very comforting x.

[@katharinaschneiderr]

[@louisebruce1863]

Wonderful to see you again and loving the content of your video. So envious that you have snow for Christmas unlike us here in Australia-full on Summer!! Have a wonderful holiday season and so so glad you’re feeling more uplifted and positive; it definitely shows in your face as you look so much happier. Take care and look forward to seeing you soon (I hope!) 🥰❤️🇦🇺

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Thank you so much Louise! Happy to see you're here, watching

[@louisebruce1863]

@@katharinaschneiderr Being in Summer for Christmas is definitely not the way to get into the Christmas spirit. I’m originally from the UK and moved back there 4 years ago for a while and it was the best Christmas ever, spent with family, cousins (I have a lot) and seeing snow. Regrettably I had to return but have missed it since the day I arrived back here in Australia. 🥲

[@katharinaschneiderr]

You can always go back to visit I guess?🫶🏼

[@emilybilbow4990]

I’m German and love rice pudding too!!! My moms is different than yours… but it is so good… trying to enjoy the holidays is difficult when you can’t stop worrying about your diet and exercise… something to consider… as you are comparing yourself to the girl on the treadmill next to you thinking that you should be faster, stronger… someone is comparing themself to you… wishing they could be more like you!!!! Because we all have different strengths and weaknesses… it’s what makes us unique… glad you’re back!!! You have made some very positive changes… 🥰

[@katharinaschneiderr]

I’ve learnt to tell myself that comparison is the thief of joy. There’s always something to be picky about, something we wish to change, etc. but in the end, it’s all about being proud of what we’ve achieved and what we’re able to do ourselves ❤️❤️ But thank you, I only see good intentions in your message. And that’s really kind of you to say!🫶🏼

[@ronjajurs]

Wow Katharina, du er bare så sej!! Mega god jul til dig og dem omkring dig

I don't know why, but you always say some words, that i needed. In thjs one it was about new work. To watch your video is always a good idea😊

Tusind tak! Håber også du får en dejlig juletid 🫶🏼

[@hanazawa6809]

I love your energy and peace at the same time in your vids. I'm glad that u r doing well! Also i wanted to ask what kind of dip you have with the chips. Is it some store bought dip or homemade by you? If yes, Will you please give US a recipe?^^ happy holidays!!!

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Hehe thank you! I just buy the dip premix (some sort of powder) and I mix it with sour cream. I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Happily holidays to you too xx

[@puntjepuntpuntje]

Instead of running every day as a challange , you have found a healthy challange. Being nice and gentle for yourself even when it´s hard and you´re mindscreams something different. I hope you can get used to it and it becomes something natural for you. I think it will. sadly such things as everything takes time i guess? Practicing it every day will get you to you're goals so i am positive you will get there. Wish you a lot off luck even though it feels a bit strange to do it when I know you will get there. Maybe it's more a good luck for the tough times so you feel some support from the outside (if that makes sense in English...) And of course i wish you a lot of fun the coming holidays and all the best for the new year!

[@katharinaschneiderr]

You're absolutely right! Everything takes time but it's worth it in the end - so I've learnt already. Patience is key even though it can be hard to trust the process. Thank you for your comment, it's so nice of you to be this considerate! Hugs, wish you the best holidays xx

[@IdaMarieLind]

SÅ dejligt at have dig med til Hjerterum skønne du & så skønt at høre, hvad du fik ud af det!!

Copenhagen seems like a wonderful place to be for the holiday season!

[@katharinaschneiderr]

It’s decent! I feel like to don’t appreciate it that much because I’m thinking about travelling all the time. Maybe I’m just mentally somewhere else ( 🇯🇵;))

[@katharinaschneiderr]

❤️❤️ I’m so glad

[@Demiproudman]

Ahhh I related so much to the part about your new job, part of my ed also makes me believe I cant have a job that isnt physical and it leads to soooo much pressure/confusion in what you actually want to do in your life

[@katharinaschneiderr]

This is so true!! I kind of think this was the toughest realisation to make hence my mind has forced me to believe I must stay as active as possible every, single day! But making this decision and such a huge change in my life has proven to me, that I am stronger than my own mind! Hope you’re doing great and on the same path too xx

[@Demiproudman]

@@katharinaschneiderrmy heartaches that you are also experiencing this it’s such a battle in your mind constantly but I’m glad that you feel more clarity and freedom from your desicion it’s definitely the right one! It’s given me motivation to change also, thank you so much for sharing!!! Thankyou so much I really appreciate it 🫶🏻 xx

[@lggprivat]

må jeg spørge hvad det indebærer, sådan et kontorjob? hvad er dine arbejdsopgaver f.eks? :) og hvordan har du fået fat i det, når du “bare” har en gymnasiel uddannelse (antager jeg)?

[@katharinaschneiderr]

Jeg arbejder med salg og gæstekoordinering i restaurationsbranchen, hvor jeg har været siden start 2021. Jeg startede som tjener og har opbygget min vej i forskellige restauranter og fået en masse erfaring, som gav mig mulighed for at få det her job. Flere jeg arbejder sammen med har en uddannelse, som er højere end gymnasial. Så jeg er heldig! :)

[@ditz3nfitness]

Just got hit with Covid-19 yet again. First time it happened was back in May 2021. There's so much illness, and so many viruses, going around right now, and therefore I want to share this as well: I know a lot of people who would restrict their caloric intake whenever they're sick because of less movement, and more time spent inside at home lying in their bed. HOWEVER, this SHOULD NOT be done! Whenever you restrict calories, you minimize the chance of your body fighting off the illness/virus, thus causing you to be ill for even longer. Providing your body with adequate amounts of calories, and you'll be back to feeling your best in the shortest possible time! Why not supply your army with amory when they need to fight? ❤‍🩹

[@katharinaschneiderr]

true statement :)
