Where did you get your planner?! It’s so cute! Also the set you’re wearing in the last part!!

[@selenagonzalez3625]

Wow I’ve been subscribed for a long time now and your content has always been so amazing. But this is just next level.. I can feel how much more free your soul is there to create and be you. It’s so beautiful watching you grow and in a way grow with you. Thank you for shining your light ✨sending you and your channel so much love ❤️

[@EmilyChaytor]

it's the way Kalyn says "my HOUSE" like when people say "my FIANCE" right after they get engaged and I couldn't be happier for her✨

[@emilym7517]

this new era is EVERYTHING, so glad you’re back uploading! I hope you’ve had a great start to 2021 and are enjoying your house- it’s absolutely stunning and so your vibe!!

[@KalynNicholson]

thank you so much!! I hope you had a kick ass start to 2021 too 🤍

[@welovemaddy]

I am so proud of her. I've been watching her channel for years and it makes me so happy that she is successfull and growing 💕💕

[@brookerose3464]

I feel like majority of people don’t have this kind of time for themselves in the morning, even waking up at 6am. It looks lovely !

[@KalynNicholson]

that's why I mentioned adapting mindfulness in a way that supports your routine rather than trying to adapt to someone else's routine entirely 💗

[@Barrett2018]

I use to have this luxury but covid completely turned my life upside down. Like most everyone around the world. I'm ready for a healthier 2021 and to get back in much needed self-care mornings like this. It does look so peaceful.

[@shylasaunders]

Same, if I’m not at work, my kids are occupying all my time. I wish I had time for myself like this so bad sometimes, just to be in peace and quite 😭

[@christinelea9655]

Ok, seriously, how friggen cute is it to see Bentley roming in his new yard like a wild puppers :D ?!?! Love it!!

[@lunamoona1505]

He has discovered his inner wild wolf 😂 love itttt

[@xokelseyxo9238]

Due to being unemployed, my sleep schedule has been so off. I go to bed late and sleep in late. I'm not happy about it. Sleeping in makes it so hard to get tired at night and to sleep at a decent time. This year, I wanna force myself to pick a time and wake up at that time every day, or at least during the week. I also need to force myself to drink more water. Love you, Kalyn. Your new home is absolutely stunning. ❤️

[@Violet-qt4dc]

you being back on KZbin making a morning routine video again had officially brought me back to life 🌹

[@KalynNicholson]

had to start the year off with a classic 🤍

[@user-ep8bk5ku6g]

Kalyn! The new editing style is AMAZING!

[@KalynNicholson]

thank u for noticing 💗

[@welovemaddy]

It's beautiful!

[@qiongyunguan4121]

I looooooove it!

[@patriciadye7797]

literally freaking needed this as i was feeling overwhelmed and unclear. how do you always know?! sending love and positive vibes ♥️

[@KalynNicholson]

sending you back some calming and clarifying vibes ✨✨

[@gracerose7017]

I'm obsessed with this video. So peaceful and happy. I do have a video request if you can though, anyway you can do a video on Bentley? All things bentley, foods you feed him, how you travel with him, teaching him tricks etc. Love you to the moon and back and I am beyond thrilled for you with this house and new chapter in your life!

[@kathleenklimek2965]

Bentley!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@KelsVaughne]

I’m already so obsessed with your house and can not freaking wait to see how you finish decorating and furnishing it 😻😻😻

[@hannahlaw1418]

bitch that rain shower oh my god. i'm screaming. the whole way through. you're literally living the life i am dreaming of in a place very similar (I live in the woods in New Brunswick). thank you for sharing your cozy little life. much love.

[@jazleighwrites]

Both you and Bentley seem so much happier and at peace in your new home. It's go nice to see

[@chelseahooper5300]

I've been in depressive rut lately, and watching this just motivated me to light my favourite candle, have a nice hot shower to finally wash my hair and put on a face mask. I feel so much better. Thank you Kalyn, you always know what to say ❤

[@jada_allison]

Okay I’m a Pisces too and I always feel like we’re on the same page! I always will have some big epiphany about life and then come watch a video and you’re talking about the same freakin thing LOL

[@ItsNikoletta]

Hi I’m a Pisces also! Joining the club and YES couldn’t agree more. I swear she’s reading my mind💗 so thankful for this great community! Her videos always bring me peace and comfort.

[@ilikespurple7]

Was so happy to see this vid pop up. I'm so happy you feel so at home in the new Koze Kingdom 🤍🤍 so much room and space for you and Bentley to play. Not to mention all that sun and light entering your space 🤍🤍🔆🔆✨✨ Lots of love. Also p.s. I'm sure you're already aware, but I'll keep commenting this in hopes you see it one day; but since ✨Bents✨ is so teenie chiweenie, pls keep an eye out (which I know you def do!!) esp at night time for Coyotes or hawks in your big backyard!!! 🤍🤍🤍🥺🥺🥺 I don't mean to scare you but just wanted to make sure he's safe 🥺🥺🤍🤍✊🏼✊🏼

[@ilikespurple7]

If you guys see this pls like so Kalyn and Bents can see this "p.s"!!! 🤍🤍✨✨🐾🐾🐾

[@amarism1718]

Hawks are a nightmare for small animals, I live in rural Minnesota and the hawks in my area love kittens and small cats.

[@NicolesLifeBeLike]

2:40 seeing the sunrise is one of my favourite things in the morning ☀️ Loving your new place Kalyn! Having a yoga room... what a dream! Xo

[@katieh2795]

I love it too! I call it sunrise therapy 🙌🏻

[@kaivalentin3]

The new house is looking so cute!!

[@KalynNicholson]

thank u, it was so fun to edit fresh footage 🥺

[@AmandaWeldon]

Seeing you in that little egg chair where you said you wanted it to be just living your best life is the best! Loved this video Kalyn!

[@celiaescobarrobles1971]

It’s so weird that I feel such a deep connection with your words and your energy, even though we obviously dont know each other and never will. But your energy, your peace, your lessons even your struggles come through the screen and really touch me every single time. I do really love every time you post because I can feel that connection again, and really makes me think about my life. Thanks for coming back, thanks for sharing even the smallest things. Have a beautiful day❤️

[@user-ep8bk5ku6g]

OMG A NEW VIDEOOOO ON THIS CHANNEL. I'M SO READY

[@EvaAntonia1]

Bently's jumps as you came with the food

[@honeypotfilms6066]

this gave me such relaxing and calming vibes exactly what I needed after a stressful day at school!! - honeypot films

[@ameliagerrard4683]

Thank you for making this calming video and also continuing to talk about things you’re going through that are hard. Disassociation and going outside of ourselves is such a human, and womanful, experience. I’m struggling with it right now as well. Thank you for helping us know we’re not alone in that and that the flight to joy is one step, each day, one day at a time.🥰🌞🌻

[@amaydejaamar]

I purchased my home a few months ago, too, and the feeling is incredible. I am proud of myself and how much I have accomplished so far. It's been a rough journey, struggling with ADHD and long term depression and anxiety in a world full of competitive people. Having my own place gives me a feeling of being shielded and powerful; thus, I have been working more and more on myself, and incorporating mindful routines in my day to day. Self-care is more than just putting on makeup and partying with friends, it's learning to be a better you and enjoying your own company when the world feels crowded. I am happy that you're back - you're one of my very first subs.

[@HarryThomasPictures]

Literally jumped for joy when I saw the notification🤩. This is a perfect and motivating first morning routine of 2021☕💛✨!

[@biseratashkova2175]

I love the slower way of living, it inspires me to slow down, smell the roses, and appreciate the present moment. By the way, the editing in this video is so beautiful it makes me want to watch it all over again. And I might as well do so, with a cup of tea this time.

[@oliviawells2567]

I got the biggest smile on my face when you said "good morning guys" ugh I missed you!

[@Alex-ir5jt]

as a fellow pisces your mentality and view of life always resonated with me, that's the reason why I started following you some years ago (I think 2/3 now). it's so heartwarming seeing you growing because I feel like we're growing together, like two old distant friends who are trying their best in life! it really shows in the last videos how happy you are in this new chapter of your life and I wish you all the best. your home is MAGICAL

[@marissafryer6013]

when you were talking about how important it is to remind yourself that it's safe to be in your own body...that hit home to me, thank you for this ❤️

[@HeyMishkaTV]

So glad you followed up this aesthetic routine with the note on confronting shadows. Morning routine videos often give me second-hand anxiety because I feel like slowing down/spending time in my own mind before the day begins is the perfect chance for anxiety to run rampant. Something that helps me is declaring "this moment matters" to stay mindful and honor the moment for whatever it is, however I feel. Congrats on the new house! xx

[@dariadumitrache6908]

i don't really express my gratitude towards online creators,but you have been the person who always makes me feel motivated when i watch ur vids,and who gives me hope. It's just really about the energy and the vibe. I just wanted to let yk that i am an old subscriber and u got me tru my worst times

[@gapeapril_]

The wall behind the bed is cool like that, you don’t have to paint it white. Can’t wait to watch you decorate and make developments to your house!

[@jordanmackenzie3267]

People like you are the reason I have faith in humanity. So happy to see that you’re happy with your new home and love to see how you’re taking care of yourself! XOXO

[@CharlotteBlue-xo7bn]

Time to get something warm to drink! ☕ Thank you for always making such cozy/inspiring videos ❤️

[@beayutuc742]

omg i loved this video so much! it's so relaxing and calming. if possible, i would love to see a video all about your favorite podcasts, books and things that make you feel a sense of calm!

[@sivri1991]

queen of morning routines--ive been waiting for this, for so long :') beautiful and inspiring as always ♡

[@shallowsleep15]

Ahh, yes ❤️ Your morning routine videos are what initially what brought me to your channel a couple years ago. I’m really liking seeing your more relaxed life out of the city. That snowy backyard is so pretty!

[@laceylipe6356]

Thank you for the function of beauty code! I just ordered hair care AND body care ✨ you are such an inspiration and bring comfort and love in each video

[@Ekat2570]

We have matching morning alarm ringtones ☺️🤍 such a peaceful way to start your morning!

[@tanwidixit]

I absolutely adore you and all the uplifting content you create Kalyn! You’re my absolute favourite KZbinr❤️❤️

[@autumnboekeloo]

✨serotonin level increase✨

[@Youlessthan3Isa]

This inspired me to have better winter mornings! I ordered my Function Beauty after watching this. I too want to simplify my self care and also treat myself. Love the Marcus Aurelius quote! Thank you so much for posting! Have been watching you since my undergraduate years (about 5 or more years now) - and stood by and did the GYST days LOL. Now I’m finishing up my Masters degree. Keep doing you and what feels right to post. ❤️ It will always be great ❤️❤️

[@EmilyChaytor]

i would also love to see you try the curly/wavy girl hair method!! Seems really cool!

[@AllThingsAlexa]

YES YES YES.✨ Morning routines are my favvv☀️

[@PoemsfromParis]

Loved the real talk moment in the middle of this video, Life isn't perfect and has it's ups and downs, it helps so much knowing everyone else goes through it as well ✨ So happy to see you thriving in your new house! ♥️

[@qiongyunguan4121]

I’ve watched pretty much every morning routine video from Kalyn and just can’t get tired of it! It’s so inspiring.❤️❤️

[@Lindsay39]

So happy for you! And your morning routine is my new life goal. Right now, I roll out of bed, head to my computer and start working. That needs to change!!!! Thank you for showing me a path that looks so perfect for me.

[@ShelbyEllen100]

i love the editing of this vlog! I’m currently adapting to a more mindful morning routine so this is perfect timing 🖤

[@melc2398]

Watching this today bc I always pull from your routines for the mindfulness and just soft coziness. Really needed your message ab life having highs and lows. I’ve been watching since roughly 2014, always coming in when most needed♥️ much love

[@ambbbbrrrr]

I have been doing a lot of shadow work and I have been loving the slow early mornings and it brings me so me and a different tone to my day vs. waking up late and the whole day being chaotic

[@vickyludwig97]

I am literally so happy that you’re back missed you a lot!!🤎 hope you’re doing well and sending lots of love✨

[@ashlaya]

Babes I have been watching you since day one and it’s so awesome to see all the places you have lived until now and seeing how beautiful your new home is! Congrats love 💕 thanks for the motivation!

[@lildreamxxx]

Your morning routines honestly motive me to a whoooole other level girlll

[@emmawilson2717]

I've been working really hard to implement this into my life as well. I make sure I give myself 2-3 hours before I start work to really relax and center myself before taking on the day. I love your videos and I'm so happy for you🖤

[@laurabynum6671]

Thank you for always inspiring me to live and love better for myself and my loved ones. Your house is gorgeous btw - especially surrounded by nature and so much natural light. The entire aesthetic is literally my goal for my future home 😍

[@maemiller4539]

I’ve been watching you for years now and I remember when you were at the very beginning of your yoga journey and watching you be to rooted and present in it now made my heart warm ✨💕 sending you lots of love and the coziest vibes!

[@chloes._pov]

Ahh this was soo refreshing to watch!! 🍃 I'm so glad to see you back🌙 thank you for motivating us all while struggling with motivation yourself. Such a true beautiful soul you have ❤️

[@stephanie6501]

Kalyn, i'm freaking out right now. I wish we were friends . I need a hug. 💚💗

[@devayanig.3100]

My soul got healed !! Such a nice & mindful routine ...it felt so good just seeing you doing things with a "intention" . I really wanna try this myself... Thank you, kalyn !!

[@zozzle_]

I’ve missed all your old school content like this. It’s so so so good!

[@kaylam12346]

Can't even describe how grateful I am to have Kalyn videos coming back and in a dream home situation. So happy for you and all your success and growth in the past year. I know it was very painful and stressful in many ways but it's clear I don't need to tell you that it's worth it for the amazing life you've been manifesting and fighting for all along.

[@jessicacrook6703]

Watching your routine videos inspired me to get a hair/body care routine down and just being able to take care of my body in that way has made me feel so much better. More grounded, more at home in my body and was a huge step forward in my "love myself more journey". It's wild how a lotion or hair mask that smells good can put you in a whole new mood.

[@hillayaniv]

JUST before my semester starts! You've been my inspiration since grade 11 I think, and now my second year in University. Thank you, this is what I needed🤍🤍🤍

[@ashleycraven191]

The aesthetic of your new place is TO DIE FOR. So glad you’re back! ❤️

[@AudreyVlogs]

Ahhh so excited!!! Love you Kalyn 🥰

[@AllThingsAlexa]

Hi hehe

[@AudreyVlogs]

@@AllThingsAlexa omg hi!! I didn’t know you’re a fan of Kalyn’s vids too, I’ve been watching her since I was in high school! ☺️

[@an9559]

To the Saturn - that`s new - I like it and LOVE new vibes of you Kalyn💫 new house is so fitting for you. Sending best wishes😁

[@reydelllinton904]

Your home is beautiful. I loved this video. Looking forward to more. Happy New Year to you and Bentley, this inspired me to have a better morning routine.

[@tofitta35]

This felt very serene and was exactly what I needed these past few days - a gentle reminder of how important self-care is and a little push to get up and show myself some well deserved love. Thank you 🌸

[@thaticelandicgirl1698]

Love how you edit your video! it is so smooth and clean and it is such a good flow! You really captured the "mindfulness" in the video! Have a lovely day/night/afternoon

[@emmaherrmann735]

You're seriously my favorite KZbinr!!! I love these videos because you're so inspiring

[@marisaskordili969]

So happy to be seeing you again (& Bentley 🥰) . Really enjoying the new vibe and seeing how happy you are ❤️

[@aranzaargudin191]

Motivating...... beautiful..... peaceful and inspiring.... ty my favorite KZbin vlogger.... you rock!

[@La_nina_88]

So peaceful and calming! Love your video and wish you and Bentley all the happiness in your new place 😘😘

[@jadeoriana7734]

I feel like I manifested this video into existence 😂 I've spent the past few days watching back old kalyn routine videos in a bid to get my self together and motivated for my new university term which starts on Monday! Just the bit of cosy content I needed🥰

[@moglidex2008]

Omg your new places just speaks vibes !!! So happy for you

[@TrulyBeauty]

love this vid! the routine is so nice! ⭐️😍

[@annafrala2698]

I’m loving the feels of this video so much 🤍

[@summerotto627]

I loved this video Kalyn I think it's also important as well to slow down and take care of yourself and this video I just like how smooth flowing it is!! ❤

[@lindal3841]

You're such an amazing dog-mom. Bentley looks so happy and free. Love this for both of you

[@haleyisfierce18]

Your outfit+ necklace+ hair is a LOOK! I love the vibe!!

[@sophie-2805]

Love this so much, I'm also loving self care and taking things slowly! Any tips on how to keep up something like this when you work different hours? Sometimes I start at 6/7am or 2pm or 4pm, obviously this changes my sleep a little and I find it hard when it changes so often! Any tips would be appreciated 💜

[@bynro7]

I just got back from a walk with our dog early this am. I was just planning on taking her out to do her business, but living here in northern Vermont it looks much like where you are. So we walked down to the (snow covered) lake. Luckily a snowmobile has made a path which made it easier to walk. I only wish I had brought my phone to capture this winter wonderland in pictures. We might get 6 more inches on top of what we already have. Your video has inspired me to take a bath after I work out today!!!

[@AkariN13]

Omg I really needed this after this past week in America! So calming and relaxing! Thank you Kalyn!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@taniaferrao8406]

I swear I was just watching all your old videos and you uploaded this video at the same time...now I can wakeup feeling Kozy and inspired

[@marinagamby]

Kalyn you are making me want an egg chair 10x more now! It looks so relaxing and cozy and great for a morning or evening routine! 😄😄

[@QueenCNow]

to make a good morning routine, i asked my self what do i need to have a good day. and that helped me create a morning routine that works for me. i sometime forget to update my routine, so they fit my needs.

[@carlyhampton]

Yayyy first video in the new house and the vibe is next level ❤❤❤❤

[@robynweyeneth1531]

BENTLEY JUMPING FOR SNACKS MADE MY DAY

[@narminismayilova7482]

is it only me want to give her peaceful soul a HUGE hug 🤗

[@maikebehrends4126]

I really needed this! With work and exams this month I felt completely overwhelmed. I will really try to take more time for a mindful morning routine instead of rushing into work... Sending lots of love xxx

[@betweenfoldedpages9863]

This is so cozy and peaceful 🧡✨

[@caglasusluay]

You look super healthy, peaceful and radiant!!! The Queen of morning and night routines finally made her comeback :3 Love you so muchhhh ××

[@ZenWithZuriOfficial]

This winter is transformation for me- I am starting to initiate what it is that I want and am called to do. I am doing the inner healing, and am bringing magic into my everyday life.

[@caitlinxoxo101]

Obsessed omg this is incredible and you seem so happy🖤 random video suggestion but could you do an updated tattoo tour? I feel like I kept seeing your tats and forgot that you had a bunch of newer ones😂

[@eduardazoghbi6948]

I missed you! Love your new place and it's easy to see how happy you are!

[@charmaine1166]

exactly what I needed right now! have been so overwhelmed by work and stress lately😩 this gives me such peaceful vibes🥰

[@Tia076]

Omggg!! Been wanting this video from youu and it’s here 😍😍🥺

[@addieparks5648]

Girl, we have matching tattoos on our wrists! Didn’t know that and I’ve been watching you for 5 years now 😂 Totally got mine because I love Taylor Swift but ya know, it’s also a positive reminder ☺️
