I am chronically ill, and this was a much needed video. Sometimes I lose touch with who I am as a person because I’m so shadowed by my illness. Whenever I’m feeling useless and feeling like nothing, it always helps to get in touch with myself.

[@luciebfink]

awwww! Thank you for watching. We LOVE YOU!

[@luciebfink]

YES YES YES! Living simply and going back to the basics. Had the best time this week :) :)

[@jeevan444]

everything you included was so simple yet weirdly enough as individuals, we forget to include these very basic activities or ways of thinking in our day to day lives. loved this videos for reminding me of that! i take myself back to simplicity by starting off my morning right. wake up, drink water, no phone, eat a healthy breakfast, and pray.

[@wendynavyrn853]

[@pauline2867]

I was sooo happy when I saw that there was a new video because I really love Try living with Lucie! Thanks so much for these videos!!🍕🤗

[@ink_choi]

this is so simple but really important things right? dont forget myself, self caring, caring my people and my work. i usually clean my room and check my face and body and do what i like(like watching movie, listening to music, dancing..) for back to basic. because priority is me. same as you Lucie😉❤️

[@refinery29]

Love these tips!!

[@Lisasplace]

now i'm craving pizza also, this video is clearly sponsored but it's never mentioned anywhere incl. the descriptionbox

[@taramu2333]

Lisa - i think it sponsored by spindrift which was the drink she drank throughout the video and it says the company’s name in the top left corner of the video

[@lottie3386]

Lisa - Agreed! I enjoyed the video but didn’t like that this wasn’t acknowledged verbally in the video / in the description box. It makes it feel a bit underhanded, when that probably wasn't the intention...

[@annaiorio4543]

I love your videos! Please do 5 days of each aspect of wedding planning. 5 days of flowers, 5 days of music, 5 days of cake!, selecting the venue and dressing the bridal party wedding gown and tuxes ,etcetera. Please include all of your parents and siblings. They are so supportive of you and wonderful! Not only are the 2 of you gorgeous, your whole family on both sides are gorgeous!

[@averycee5192]

Best series on refinery29, hands down.

[@internalbeauty597]

I use music as a way to rediscover myself and journaling. Music just makes me feel more happier overall and with journaling, I feel like i'm releasing some of the thoughts and feelings that i've kept inside. Journaling helps me to be more honest with myself and it reassures me of my values and what I really want out of my life. It keeps me motivated.

[@elliefinch2569]

Loved this one!

[@sophiab974]

Your ideas for videos are great! Keep it up! I love you Lucie!!!! 😘😘☺️☺️😍😍

[@Sofia-xh6rj]

[@vaivastankeviciute8897]

Finally AJURVEDA!!! WAITINGG ❤❤

[@betsyhendrickson5836]

You should try 5 days of Vitamins! Like trying many/different types and seeing if they really effect the body right away or if it is a gradual process. It would be a fun learning experience too!

[@paigeb6783]

I love Lucie!

[@SoCalledKaty]

You did a really nice job on this video, ways I go back to the basics is spending time cleaning and organizing in my daily routine. I also spend time cooking as an activity on days when I am never really outside the house. Another thing for me is just spending more time outside. I love your videos!

[@refinery29]
