Hello friends, in this video I am sharing a few ways that I am preparing for the rainy dark months ahead. As much as I thrive in fall and winter whether, I myself still often struggle with seasonal depression. As the rainy dark months ahead cause a shift in many of us that is often hard to overlook, I wanted to share a video dedicated on how over the years I've learned to cope with the whether change during the Fall & Winter seasons. It is important for me to advocate for mental health and overall wellness. I hope you find this video comforting. Also, my art shop just opened! After a year of having my art shop closed, I am slowly stocking up my shop with products. For now you can find a small spooky whimsical line I created of a few stickers and prints. You can take a peek below! xx Kim Please help me reach my goal of reaching 5,000 subscribers this year by engaging with my videos & subscribing! I would really appreciate it! 🫶 🗡 Shop My Art: www.kimberlyrodriguez.com/

Don’t get me wrong, that butternut squash was a bit complicated lol but I tried my best to scrape as much of it off from the shell 😅 thank you for watching!

Kim!! Gloomy, rainy days are my soul's comfort. And so is gilmore girls and supernatural! I love this video because even when you love something, you still can get down / burned out. We need to take care of ourselves ❤

Gloomy days have gotten such a bad rep but I truly love folks who can relate to how comforting a rainy day feels. 🫶🏼🍂🌧️ I completely agree, we need to learn to set healthy boundaries to rest so we can continue to do the things we love ❤️

This video brought me so much joy and comfort while drinking my coffee this morning. It has me thinking about ways I need to manage all the negativity that comes with the darker months. It can’t be prevented but like you said, it can be embraced to a degree. I need to find my winter craft - maybe candle making!

I’m so glad to hear that! ☺️ I love attaching certain crafts to season. It makes it that much more exciting and I truly find that it helps in this case with seasonal depression for those of us who can experience it. I think candle making sounds divine! So cozy and perfect for winter! ❄️ 🕯️

Rainy and gloomy days are the absolute best! I thrive in them. It is not often that I get seasonal depression during the fall / winter months, i mostly feel like that during spring / summer 😅 but once in a while I will get a bit of seasonal depression during winter. I love my little compartment for my stickers. I actually got it from Amazon. It’s called the “Wesiti Vintage Wooden Storage Box.” Thank you for watching, friend! Hope you are enjoying your fall season! 🍂🕯️☕️

Lovely :) This inspires me to get my embroidery supplies back out soon! There are so many fun types of stiches and knots to learn (from the internet, wherever). And I agree, seasonal eating/drinking feels good - I get a big mood boost from having apple cider in the fall :)

Embroider is for sure my new favorite hobby! I loved how cozy and stress free this made me feel! I need to learn new stitches. I winged this one but now that I feel like this is something I will like, im willing to invest some time on it ☺️

Gilmore girls is also my comfort show. I ordered a sticker sheet from your shop, I can't wait for it to arrive!

Gilmore Girls does something to my spirit that I just love! So comforting and entertaining to watch. Thank you so much for the kind support! Can’t wait for you to receive your order! 🍂☺️

Just placed an order on your shop. The Halloween merch is adorable 🖤 I love the idea of setting seasonal goals. Living in Florida (and not having seasons lol) it’s easier to forget to slow down and modify your practices in the later months of the year. Thank you
@itskimberlyrodriguez2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for the kind support! I’m so excited for you to receive your order! 🍂👻 and yes, I find that in California it can also be similar considering how climate change has unfortunately been affecting our environment with the seasons change starting later and later in the year

✨🎊✨CONGRATULATIONS on 5K!!!!!! ✨🎊✨ i loove a nice cozy video! we got a little taste of it this week in texas when the high was 70, it was overcast AND the wind was a nice chilly breeze. my soul comes alive when the earth is getting ready for a deep sleep, when nature and animals begin to settle in and everything kind of goes quiet. 🌬️ would you call your voiceover chats "prose"? its always been my favorite part of your earlier videos, and i was so happy to hear your thoughts again. thank you for sharing!! 🖤✨

I just realized this morning I reached 5k!!! 🥹 I’ve been dreaming of this day forever! I need to celebrate with you guys soon! I need to plan something! Thank you Gloria! The whether is also starting to turn here and it feels soooo good! I’ve finally been able to wear some of my sweaters. Ahh I just love this time of the year. I’m glad you enjoyed the voice over. I know it’s been a while since I’ve done of these. I’ll try to include them more often in my videos just for you! 🤗 I would like to consider the voice over videos sort of “prose” like. I personally love this style and it feels nice to hear someone’s voice reciting or talking over their footage. 🫶🏼

this video was so beautiful and cozy 🖤☕️ i absolutely love the stickers and prints from your shop! Do you ship to europe? 🍂
@itskimberlyrodriguez2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! I do ship to Europe but unfortunately I don’t have the best shipping options as far as affordability goes at the moment. I do have a cheaper alternative but that if you order only stickers and it’s untracked

Am I the only one with seasonal depression in Summer😅 I love autumn and the colder months in general and I thrive in them but the summer heat gets me so so down
@itskimberlyrodriguez2 ай бұрын
I am on the same boat! It is not often that I experience seasonal depression during the fall / winter season. Occasionally, maybe. I mostly get seasonal depression during the summer. The heat and I are not good friends lol. I love layering and feeling cozy during the autumn & winter seasons. ☕️🧣🍂🧦
