How To Stay Positive On A Bad Day | Self Care Summer

[@BrookeMakenna]

I'm always the empathetic friend everyone comes to for advice and it's so nice to watch this series because I feel like I finally have that friend that will help me too❤️ you're amazing Carrie, the people around you are so lucky!

[@CarrieRad]

Girl I’m here! I can totally relate to this though!

[@Darahtheavatar]

Brooke Makenna this is exactly what I'm feeling!! So nice to not feel alone

[@victoriacastaneda8203]

Brooke Makenna I feel the exact same way! This was much needed today. I’m feeling overwhelmed, and sad today- this video couldn’t be more fitting. Ya’ll are incredible, never forget it! Thanks so much Carrie. Xx!! ❤️❤️

[@shelbifavre]

Videos like this are why youtube actually matters. It's not just about lifestyle or beauty, but about letting people know they matter and that they can make it through something they're struggling with. Thanks for that, Carrie.

[@isadoratorres1926]

This is exactly what I needed today. Not only because your voice is really calming but also because I’m having a crappy day and this kind of videos always help me a lot! Thank you❤️

[@daniellelight2382]

Today has been such an awful day from the start. I was laying on my bed thinking what I should do and immediately I knew I needed to come here, and I am so happy I did. The part about remembering who you are totally made me cry but in the best way. I totally need to fill my heart with love for myself, because I AM doing the best that I can, and I am feeling so drained of energy lately. I feel so over worked emotionally . Thank you so much for your content. The self care summer series has completely effected my outlook and opened a door to a new concept of being able to try to love myself. You have been such a light for me, thank you Carrie!

[@Littleteakitten]

I just want you to know that you're a beautiful person and I'm so happy to see that the world can contain such love and wholehearted goodness in the form of people. The fact that you reach out to others and allow yourself to be vulnerable and give people permission to own their own vulnerability is such a much needed thing especially in our fast paced society. Thank you for giving me a safe space to learn to love myself, and giving others someone to turn to in their time of need. Please, please never change. Only grow. 💖🌿

[@shamsramzi1750]

It was such a bad day for me and I felt like I'm going back to the dark side ( depression) but when I saw your video I felt better and I started crying when you said that you're feeling what I'm feeling in your chest , thank you so much for the love you're spreading . I love you 💖

[@martapaolelli8250]

I think I watched a thousand of videos on this topic. But no one was like that. I literally cried, so thank you so much for having made this video, please don’t stop sharing your content

[@ankitapatel5183]

This really spoke to me...especially your advice to fill yourself up with love for yourself. Sometimes easier said than done, but definitely an important thing to actively remind yourself to do. As i've gotten older, I've come to realize that no one will or can love you better than you can love yourself, and I don't mean that in a cold or mean way. Self love is so powerful.

[@yumiruu]

I was just having the worst panic attack after work and couldn’t stop crying for a few hours. As I was trying to distract myself from the negative spiral, I found this video. I normally don’t really take in the words from this kind of video but your words really made me feel better. Thank you so, so much:’) You are such a warm and loving person☺️

[@Simpals19]

Hey I love your all videos. They are so good and inspirational. You know I suffered through depression for 4 years. I lost everything like everything that time. I'm a law student. And I did come out of it strongly but sometimes I can feel that past feelings of what I've gone through. Some day I just can't do nothing or procrastinate which takes a toll on me .

[@MelissaFayeBlog]

You are the sweetest, Carrie! I take your hug and give you one back! I’ve had more bad days than I’d like to admit in my life, but lately they have become much brighter. I love this series and I know I say that on like every video! For those struggling everyday or for a string of days, I am so with you! ❤️ Thanks for this video!

[@andhicook8021]

I agree. We sometimes don't allow ourselves to feel sad. I've been in a slight funk the past few days and I had just decided to let myself be in my melancholy without trying to judge myself too harshly. It felt kind of freeing to not try to "fix" myself immediately. So, I'm really glad you included that in your video today. Thank you

[@miamontesgonzalez8693]

I come to your videos when I’m sad and it always helps. Thank you for sharing your soul with the world, Carrie. Keep doing this. It’s your calling 💜

[@shrutirajesh9240]

It’s come at the right time. Thanks Carrie. I’ve had such a bad day & this was amazing to listen to ♥️

[@CarrieRad]

Appreciate you ♥️ hope it’s get better! 😘

[@MissVasques]

Thank you, felt a bit low today, sleepy and unmotivated to seize the day. But now I feel a bit lighther, doing just something no matter how seemingly small really hit home with me. It makes it easy to get started and I know most days when I get started I quickly do more than I first planned on doing.

[@abrilgiosa3134]

altough this video is old i saved it in my watch later to see it in a bad day and today is that day and this chat really helped me, i felt your nice energy and your warm hug, thank you so much

[@Lollypo01]

Hi Carrie, I'm fairly new to your channel, but I am LOVING the self-care summer series. Your video today has just popped up in my notifications, and it could not be more well timed. I have had an absolutely awful day. It didn't start that way when I woke up, but work happened! I was in tears for about 30 minutes this morning, but I managed to rally round. Your video has really helped me to see that I've done the right thing by choosing to inspire myself with some self care. I didn't run away from the problem, I carried on, and I spoke to one of my friends at work who gave me a pep talk. I bought some flowers on my way home, and I have watched lots of motivational videos on KZbin. I will be having a cuddle with my bae shortly, and a nice, relaxing bath, and having an early night. Thank you for this series, it has really helped me. Please keep going! I love your videos and your channel! xx

[@CarrieRad]

Girl you’re amazing! You got through it like a champ 👊🏽👏🏽♥️ 😘

[@Lollypo01]

Thank you. It means a lot to know that you have taken the time to do this and also to reply! xx

[@veronicajordan1231]

I love watching this series!! I'm going through a rough time I just moved from Puerto Rico to the states and I've been having a hard time transitioning. I graduated last year and I don't know what to do with my life (career wise) and I just feel very stuck and this has made me VERY anxious, sad and scared but I always find comfort in your videos. So thank you so much for taking the time to make them, they have really helped me get through these bad times. ♥️♥️

[@JMBCLOVER]

woke up feeling very down, it felt like you were talking directly to me, i appreciate your positivity and kindness 💌

[@maria.jose.6]

I needed this. I've been feeling really lost lately, I graduated from university and I'm so stuck, I don't know what to do with my life now. This series has helped me a lot and I feel like I am your friend and that I can talk to you about anything and I love that. Thanks for the warm hug, I'm sending you one too

[@cassidychurch2124]

This series brought me back to your channel. This is so important to talk about and your empathy and genuine demeanor is so refreshing. We need more positivity like this, so thank you! YGG

[@KellydelaCreme]

I've realllyyyy been enjoying this Self Care Summer series! Love how real & genuine you are

[@susannahalman382]

The fact that you gave the number in the screen already gave me a good feeling. Thanks so much for that❤

[@mirandaslaght6161]

That moment when you realize this video is exactly what you needed and you didn’t even notice how off you were feeling into now😲💗

[@crystaldong9670]

ah! Carrie, so happy you’re continuing the series. Your videos are so additive. I love watching them ❤️😊

[@georgie8079]

Very touching. Like you say, there are a whole range of emotions people can go through and I feel the media appeals to the extremes. This video is good to remind those who are going through a blip, no matter how big or insurmountable they may feel, that they will get through this. Sometimes your mind does just break but it does mend and things do constantly change. Thank you for sharing.

[@kimberlyalvarez]

Thank you Carrie for this video. I, as well as many others that probably clicked on this video are going through a tough time and your light and positivity to keep going makes a huge difference on my outlook when I feel myself sinking into a bad day. I know that you mean every word that you say and that you truly love your viewers. One small step is all it takes to slowly crawl out of a funk that you might be in even if it’s as simple as drinking some water or eating some food like you mentioned. Thank you for the interweb hug. 🤗 😄Much appreciated. I hope that you had a beautiful day.

[@Lovesongcalls]

You uploaded this back in June, it is now July....holy cow. Just when i needed it most. I almost feel like I saved watching this video for today and my "past" self knew I'd need it today. Is that weird?! Thank you so much!

[@bratzandanimelover]

Thank you for this video. Today, after a bad internship interview, I found out that I might get kicked out of my dorm in a month. I freaked out a little but I had to push through emotionally, I have to retake an exam on Monday and I managed to get a few hours of studying done. Nevertheless, I'm exhausted right now and I've been meaning to watch this video for the longest time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@PixieDustProductions]

Carrie, I absolutely adore you and your channel. This series has been so needed in my life. This last month has been really crazy for me mentally and physically...basically anxiety and misplaced guilt caused me to lose 4 pounds in a week and calling out 2 days of work and just shutting everything out. I realized I needed to go through a self love journey and these videos are exactly what I need. Today was a hard day for me and your words were exactly what I needed to hear. 💕

[@jimw966]

Watching your videos always brightens my day. This series is amazing and I only wish I could watch them sooner. The downside of having a full-time job, you have watch everything hours after they are posted. I hope you have a fabulous day Carrie and thank you for this series. Hey folks, if you are watching this video, you should be subscribing to Carrie's channel.

[@MonicaChurch]

your videos are so relaxing

[@juliamaiman2388]

Ahh Carrie you're such a beautiful soul. I have also been feeling the weight of the media and what's going on in the world and have just felt down lately but this did genuinely lift me up. I'm hoping at some point to be able to connect with people on the level that you do (and you really do connect which is pretty amazing) through my writing and not being at that point yet gets me down sometimes. This helped :)

[@Jmp599]

I loved this! Thank you

[@oykureads]

I didn’t even know how much I needed this. Thank you Carrie for being in my life in all of our lives. I’m feeling a lot better now. Just knowing that there is someone going through a similar thing can be so relaxing. And this is even more🧡🧡☺️☺️☺️

[@7175711616]

All I can say is Thank you. I didn’t start to cry until your statement near the end of your video. I will see what tomorrow brings me 😔

[@CarrieRad]

Tomorrow will be a better day. You are stronger than you think. I’m sending you all the love. ♥️

[@natashaloo-hoo8882]

Hi Carrie! Loving this series so far. I'd love to see you make a video about being intuitive. Specifically, listening to your body when you eat, need extra sleep, or have some "me time" !

[@janettikiylikomi2950]

Im literally wrapped in a blancett, drinking ginger tea and feeling ...blah. I adore your self care series❤❤❤

[@rhonda2337]

Love this video! I'm an empath too, I literally cry or laugh whenever someone cries or laughs in a movie, a book, or in real life. I'm the mom in my group of friends lol so they come to me for a hug or advice or just to vent, but it's nice t be reminded of the ways even I can get out of my funk 😊

[@catwalkcreative]

It is so obvious that you are speaking right from the heart. As a fellow empath, you totally got me right in my feels. So much love for you. (Totally not a KZbin commenter but you’ve inspired me so😘🙏)

[@mich_and_pooches]

Totally paused on intro, made another cup of hot chocolate and snuggled down on the sofa with my pooches, unpaused and continued to watch. ☺️ ☕️ ✌🏻😘

[@CarrieRad]

mich_pooches& cottagelife yeeeeesaa ♥️

[@SimplyAnna]

Hahaha I'm on 0:13 of the video and just put on a kettle to make tea, scrolled down and read this comment 😄

[@jennamarie2428]

Remember who you are 💙 reminds me of Lion King 🦁 hakunah matata! Love this series!

[@lizziesocks3775]

This was so needed today 🙌🏻🙌🏻 thank you 🎉

[@isabella322pluspizza]

ugh love you and these vids so much Carrie. they are really impacting my summer and just life in general in such a great way. really grateful, hope whatever sad things you are facing currently turn around but I know that you are capable of getting through a lot you are such a strong person and a great example to younger viewers too

[@Catherine-lm7kv]

Lovvvvving this series! I had a really weird day today and I appreciated coming come from a long night at work to this inspiring video. Thank you for your kind words 💕

[@cozyverbena1574]

Currently going through a really hard time in life. So grateful you are making this series ❤️❤️❤️

[@LilDeadHead1]

perfect timing! Well... almost perfect timing. yesterday was the first bad day ive had in line a year! they dont come around too often but when they do,.. icky!!

[@whatkayleesays]

Carrie, Thank you so much for going to this place and making this video. I love that you emphasize self care as not only bubble baths and face masks (which those things are important too!! haha ;) But going a step further and addressing those dark moments in which we really need some pure self love and compassion. So comforting to hear you share your own bad days/sadness and how to love yourself through it rather than fight it or beat yourself up over it. It helps to see someone you admire show they, too, carry sadness and hurt sometimes. It is something we "know" but tend to convince ourselves that we are the only ones who feel this way. You and your channel just keep growing and evolving in such a beautiful way. Thank you thank you, sending love xoxo

[@dianeb2349]

Exactly what I needed. I barely ever have bad days but this was def one of these days. Thanks Carrie. Xoxo

[@CarrieRad]

I’m so glad this came to you at a good time ♥️

[@dianeb2349]

Carrie Rad it did. I always try to stay positive. Today I tried so hard but I was also sick and I felt worse emotionally and then also physically when someone was being so incredibly disrespectful and so mean to me. It was hard to stay positive. And I always try to keep reminding myself that I’m being the best I can be and that this person is probably having a bad day and probably doesn’t mean to act it out on me. That doesn’t make it right but I try to help myself get over my sadness by reminding myself certain things. And this day will pass and I’m really hoping to wake up tomorrow and embrace a new day. Oh my gosh. As I’m sitting here I’m still trying to get over what happened today but I’m getting there. Hugs to you Carrie!

[@lorola7325]

Loving your self care summer series 😍 I bought a book yesterday called “high vibrational beauty” and instantly thought of you and this series ! I’m loving it so far .

[@xmbrly8015]

I'm convinced you keep picking up on the energy I'm putting out into the world for a lot of these Self Care Summer vids bc they keep coming at perfect timing, woke up in a funk today and really needed this video! lol another great one! ♥️

[@McGan19]

Thank you Carrie for sharing these tips. That's exactly what I needed to hear after a couple of harder/more stressful days. Keep spreading the love like you always do :) xxx

[@KR-hf2jk]

Yeeeeeessssss to filling your heart with love for yourself! Such a great way to put it ❤️

[@mega1616]

This is one of the better videos I've seen on the subject, you have great suggestions and such a kind and loving attitude

[@Shnnnzlsmth]

Chick, your content really helps. I come back to certain videos and this is one of them.

[@laurenkonkiel374]

Hi Carrie, what do you recommend for someone who keeps having life knocking me down.??? I have no support system at all. I can’t seem to shake the negative vibes away. Any suggestions??? ❤️

[@T_7318]

I was in this same exact place with no support network a few yrs ago. The only thing that helped me was being aggressive in pushing back against the negative. I'd wake up already angry and miserable, so i found one thing to look fwd to. For me it was putting on a fun work outfit. Silly right? But it became my raft in the morning. Any time those neg voices wld pop up I'd tell them to shut it & focus on my little outfit. At work that i hated, I'd only like my breaks. So I'd use them to walk around the building, listen to music, decompress, whatever I cld do to be calm. Leaving work was so joyful. I'd focus really hard on how happy i felt driving home. It was hard. It took effort every hour of every day to pull myself up piece by piece. It's going to take time, it took me ab a year. It was exhausting, but it snowballs & you'll find a way little by little to find yourself again. You can do it. Start small. Be agressively your own best friend, your own protector. Lots of luck

[@jacqey40]

I have no support system either and have been recommended to try volunteering even if it is for just a couple hours a week. Also to try out a new hobby and join a class.

[@shujingchen7171]

You are such a wonderful genuine human being.

[@ThatOneAwkwardFangirl]

I only just stumbled across your videos a couple days ago, but i'm so glad that I did? Yesterday was one of the worst days I've had for a while, and this was the exact video I needed to see. I really appreciate that you acknowledged the levels of bad days, and even though yesterday I wouldn't have been able to follow a lot of this advice, it helps just to hear someone being understanding (if that makes sense) 😊 Again, so glad I subscribed the other day

[@brendabarrera6252]

Hi, Carrie... Your vid came to me at the perfect time... I just started working for a Marketing company where they send us out to raise funds for a non-profit organization for kids to have free meals at school... I love the purpose of the job and the whole movement...and although i was not aware of what I would be selling at first, as soon as i found out, i said "awsome...i can do this".... Well, today was my second day of training and i just couldn't get any of my words out as part of my script... I began feeling frustrated as I was getting all "Nos" or people would just walk by and not acknowledge me as i was trying to get them to sign up to donate... I know how it is...but i just kept thinking about my bills and doubting if i can actually hang in this type of job... I know i dont have to stay in it but feel like such a failure for allowing myself to "be in my head" and the uncertainty....worried about my bills getting paid and alll these old feelings of insecurity and self shame/feeling stupid for not continuing college being 40yrs of age, now and comparing myself to others....uggh... This Ego of mine...smh... Anyway..dont want to make this even longer but just wanted to say thank you for reminding me to remind myself of who I really am and what I stand for...gonna be easier on myself - and take deeper breaths! Much love 💕💕

[@jolandadejong1896]

Thank you for this inspiring video. I love a good workout. I feel so much better about myself after a workout. Reading a good book works also great for me or taking a break from social media. I'm also a very creative person and I get the most inspiration from bad days or when I'm going through a hard time.

[@Sabrina07197]

Jolanda de Jong love this😍

[@rebeccadouden5545]

This video is everything. 🙌🏼 I especially like your advice to own your sadness. Such a good way of looking at it and I’ll definitely take that with me the next time I have a bad day.

Dear Carrie~ thank you for this fresh & uplifting message. I am learning to accept feeling bad, sad, troubled, irritated, in addition to the other feelings I feel. I am learning to allow myself to feel how ever I feel, because it’s a part of life. 🤫 😘🌞🐶 Thank you for this message. 🧜🏼‍♀️🌸💚
