[@rizkilarasati9706]

I just watch the video for 1:35 minutes and decided to stop the video and going for a walk for 1 hour. Thank you for sharing, Meghan ☺😘

[@clearlycristal4313]

I love this! I think everyone needs these tips because even something simple like slowing down your bedtime really does feel more relaxing and pampering. I’ve been trying that and I feel like I fall asleep a lot more stress free. Love all of this advice!!

[@meghanlivingstone]

Clearly Cristal I feel the exact same way! I think I actually sleep better because of it. Slowing down also helps me make sure I properly remove my makeup, etc. so it feels extra good :)

[@MommaSchmoozeReviews]

yes, i like all your practical tips! As a SAHM and homeschool mom I like to make sure I take care of myself and taking 5-15 minutes of reading a good book is my sanity sometimes and helps me in my day!

[@alishamakkar5330]

Your content is always soothing as well as stimulating!

[@user-ei4gx3to5w]

The soothing pace of the video perfectly complements the useful material. Thank you very much! I will try to incorporate these habits into my daily routine

[@chloevaleriepearl7718]

Thank you for these habits, a lot of them haven’t been mentioned in other videos! 🤗 I‘ve been incorporating a walk into my daily routine lately and noticed such a big difference 💕

Great tips! I love taking 5 to stretch in the morning and before bed, helps me get in touch with my body and release tension.

[@MsTziva]

Thank you ❤ This video really helped me !👍

[@snowflakefrost]

Thank you! ❤️ Self-care is indeed important yet people tend to forget about it. 😔 Just like me.

[@jane584]

Thank you for this, Meghan. I especially like boundaries as self-care. I would never have thought about that and what a time for it now. With working from home and here so much, I need to create the boundaries and think of them as self-care--something to give thought to over the weekend. I can think of other areas where I could benefit from some self-care boundaries after I take on that first one. Again, thank you for a fresh perspective.

[@lupesanders1864]

Hi Meghan, I've only watched a few videos so far but I wanted to comment to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and uploading these videos. Your videos are so soothing to watch and I love the filming style, how you look straight straight down the camera barrel (or close to). Look forward to exploring your channel further

Ive always prefered sitting at the table eating dinner than on the sofa in front of the tv my boyfriends parents who i live with dont even have a dinner table and im used to sitting at the table with my family when i was younger its just so much nicer its easier you can enjoy your food more slow down and talk to people

[@kevinbarlow5418]

I'm going to show this to a class I am teaching on this subject. I would add the power of music.

[@thedoctor7465]

Getting 7-8 hours of sleep, meditating when I wake up, making trail mix to eat during class, writing notes on inspirational Ted Talks are some self-care things I do!

[@katcoates5938]

Love this! This is put together so beautifully:) I would just like to add that getting into the habit of waking up just a little bit earlier so that you can take your time in the morning is so helpful as well. I find that I get so much more out of a calm, slow morning rather than 15 minutes of extra sleep and the inevitable stressful mad rush along with it. Gotta start your day right, you know? :)

[@kerryirving2949]

Kat Coates I agree!

[@meghanlivingstone]

Kat Coates great point! I find it makes a big difference getting up a bit earlier too. Super rushed mornings are never fun.

[@GraceAskew]

I struggle with feeling like I've haven't worked hard enough and long enough each day....I'm not a workaholic by any means, but I show up, consistently, every day for my fanbase (As a songwriter) and produce quality content. The little daily steps sometimes feel like they "SHOULD" be taking me longer or should be more complex...thoughts on societal pressures to constantly "do more" and "be more" ?

Self care to me feels like: - a hot cup of tea or any drink my body feels it needs in silence. -a hair mask and face mask while I sit down to read a book (if I can do both it’s a bonus) - lighting a candle or diffusing some of my favorite oils after a hot shower and relaxing (I also like to turn on my salt lamp) - cleaning room and decluttering/ getting rid of things I no longer use to allow room for new things -sitting in my car after a long day of work in front of my house and listening to some good music and letting go before I go inside my house -writing down what’s been bothering me and letting it go as I do tend to bottle my feelings and push myself to keep it together - taking a hot shower, doing a body scrub and putting on my favorite body butters and oils. -calling a friend to catch up and vent if needed -cuddle with my dogs and take them for a walk

[@walkingexercise5375]

Great ideas. Your videos are calming! Do you meal plan for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? If so, I would love to see a video about how you plan your meal for the week. Thanks!

[@meghanlivingstone]

Great video, can you do a haircare routine too please?

[@MeMommyEms]

When I go for a walk I leave my phone at home. I just enjoy the moment to hear the wind blows, the birds and looking at nature. This is what I do everyday except for a bad weather. It is the best feeling ever.

[@meghanlivingstone]

So true. I love to do that also :)

Slowing down seems to be a common theme in many self care tips, and I think so many people can use that advice of slowing down in their every day lives which would become a self care thing that they're doing when they may not even be intentionally aware that they are carrying out a self care habit. In addition, in doing this we would all then be contributing to the well being of the collective everyone.

[@meghanlivingstone]

Some great thoughts :) I definitely like the idea of increased well being for everybody in the world!

Hi Meghan, what sorts of veggies and fruits would be okay for breakfast for someone who has GERD? I’ve just recently been diagnosed with GERD and i was a bit freaked out to see the list of foods i should avoid... i live in Indonesia btw, and it’s a tropical country so maybe my choice of fruits and veggies are a bit different...

[@katiethomas5889]

Now that it is finally getting warmer outside, my toddler Natalie has been wanting to go on a walk. Which is good for both of us! Free exercise. How often do you go on walks? Daily? Weekly?

[@daudarie]

Hey just wondering what are everyday activities is, when do you do your productive thing?

[@anamacapagal2049]

I love this. Too bad I can't do this as much as I want maybe once a month or if someone is available to care for my bub. I'm a work at home mum so it's haard to get that kind of routine. But yeah, if you really want to do something, you'll try to make it possible.

Thank you very much for doing this video Meghan 😊. I agree with & like at the tips/habits. Thank you very much though for taking about the boundaries one & beening assertive! & explaining how to set boundaries! I’ve just learned recently how to be assertive!. Part of my selfcare is breathing exercises, medition, putting face & foot cream on & drinking hot choclate with marshmallows

[@rainakochanvideo]

My self care habits are still being implemented : hot shower, lone time, reading, biking, knitting, walking , talking to my close friends, using the app Calm.

[@meghanlivingstone]

Love all of those things! (except I haven't knitted in years!)

[@rainakochanvideo]

Knitting is time consuming and take lots of time and patience to knit smth. I do it as often as possible. You should resume if you have time.@@meghanlivingstone

[@caitlynbarker7661]

I enjoy doing yoga when I can feel myself becoming stuck or stagnated mentally. It is refreshing and I function much better afterwards.

[@enemanozzle]

The best self-care habit according to Ayurveda to become happier and healthier will always be to take regularly 1 tablespoon (15 ml) castor oil on an empty stomach. In this manner not only all the waste deposed in your intestines will be excreted, but the toxins deposed in your body will be eliminated via the liver too.
