No but seriously, after editing this there was a pizza in the oven in 5 minutes flat.

*meditates lying down on bed 30 seconds later... *dead asleep Real problem, ladies and gents.

[@AskWhyMoreOften]

Mel Mason That's amazing for going to sleep meditations. You might find yourself more likely to stay awake if you are sitting on a couch, or chair. Also, be aware that sometimes the things that you need most from a meditation may come to you differently than expected. If your body needs lower REM time, meditation might be what brings you that. Trust your body. I've been teaching meditation for 7+ years and practicing for over two decades. Not trying to be preachy, just wanted to let you know that meditation comes in all shapes and walks of life - including walking meditations.

[@joiedefi]

My biggest addiction/habit is bingeing on KZbin😁 But it's calorie free and I love it!!!

[@MiKaylaRose]

I want to workout more. Always wanted to but it’s hard for me to get into the habit of doing it.

[@MissVasques]

MiKayla Rose Maybe you haven’t found that thing you really like doing so it becomes a chore you have to push yourself to both get started with and push to finish it. Or perhaps you’re like me, having different workout things you really enjoy when you do it, but are to quick to listen to your excuses of why you are not even starting the workout that day. Then it’s Will power and/or a workout buddie of some kind that hold you accountable and who you let down beside yourself if you don ’t show up. Well, that’s all advice clicheés I’ve heard over the years that seem to work.

[@canyoucarrymybags]

i feel the same way

[@k.hudson4610]

I always like her videos before I watch them 💓💓💓

[@LizbethDeLaCruzSantana]

Hope&Love&Faith 46 me too!

[@KatieFilms]

Sumeya Hannan agreed!

[@brookes4802]

Sumeya Hannan yes PLEASE! I think Kalyn’s hair look so gorgeous just now 😍

[@MakeupForGlasses]

yesss and skincare!

[@jeannellevargas6367]

Love your motivation and ambition!! The first week of January I redid my entire room (paint/clean out closet/rearranged my furniture). So I’m starting my resolutions and goals this week!! This video was posted at the perfect time!! Thanks!! Love ya!♥️

[@canyoucarrymybags]

me too!

[@AlainaNicole]

Love your motivating and inspiring videos ❤️✨

[@Thefitty]

Alaina Nicole her video style is akways motivating ^^

[@gracemusial9186]

Alaina Nicole do you by chance watch Jeanine Amapola? 😂

[@AlainaNicole]

Grace Musial yes she’s so good!!

[@gracemusial9186]

Alaina Nicole I was gonna say, I thought I saw one of your comments on her video and I looked at your channel, great job on all of your videos!!

[@karendiaz220]

Alaina Nicole have you seen Niomi Smart ?

[@sarchibald9417]

This is the first time I actually got motivated to do something with my life. Go 2018. ✨✨✨✨✨✨

[@Amaalie13]

Yay! new video! I have been watching your old videos over and over, and I love to put on the coffee talk videos in the background when Im cleaning, organizing and all that GYST! Your podcasts will be life! You are so inspiring, Thank you!

[@mariaalicesantos9177]

Amaalie13 Same here! Need those podcasts so bad

[@KnlMohawk13]

The daily streak thing, about forming your habits is so true! I'm trying to ease into veganism (just letting myself run out of what groceries I have, and not purposely buying non vegan food). And that streak is the only thing that's stopped me from getting mcdonalds on my way home from work. I also got inspired by you to start a planner. I've set time aside to fill in what needs done and it's done well for me so far.

[@melisarose3922]

Can you do a “a day in my life” or even “a week in my life”??? Pleaaaase 🙏🏼🙏🏼 like where you don’t just show the parts where you’re productive but like everything... I genuinely care so much

[@AbigailStephens]

I don’t get if these get repetitive.. please track more of these!! Even if it’s just in your normal vlogs, seeing you achieving your New Years resolutions and being motivated, motivates me x

[@cheeseballs8054]

A book I think you would really like is 365 Days of Wonder or the app Daily Wonder. Both of them give you a new quote everyday(since you love quotes). I really enjoy it and I hope you check it out.

[@brittlois1858]

It’s 11 PM here and this video has left me craving vegan pizza 😅. Kalyn, you’re glowing throughout the entire video and you’re radiating so much positivity! So energizing to watch 😍

[@obscuraxxxx]

i've been killing my new habits of this year : ) each week i want to focus on adding in new habits slowly over time so i don't overwhelm myself. xo love you!

[@KelsVaughne]

haha i love how real this was! kels xx

[@RhianeHacker]

Kayln helping us all actually achieve our new years res for once

[@sana2olatanzem]

nice idea .. i liked the way you showed how you apply habits into daily actions.

[@lunanova369]

I spot The Wild Unknown tarot deck!!! 😍♥️ I have the same deck; it’s absolutely beautiful. The art is just so stunning. It can be a bit harder to read than the average tarot deck, but it’s so damn aesthetic I don’t even care lol

[@jenp2814]

I prefer the Calm app versus Headspace. I prefer the guiders voice in Calm and it’s a much more relaxing meditation I find personally anyway 😊

[@mewmewpower678]

video idea: Moving out tips and how to look for places to live! thank you! Much love! Represent Toronto/ Canada

[@lesliepaulino6046]

I just started following you and i can’t begin to explain how much i love your videos. You literally keep me at peace, your videos are so calming to watch.

[@laurenmills4101]

i’m obsessed with your vlogs and morning routines!! also can you do an updated what’s on my iphone or a hair care routine!! ilysm queen 💙💙

[@mailebarry466]

That sweater looks so good on you in the beginning!!

[@claudiacorr9306]

Your videos get me through my bad days, I haven’t been to therapy in weeks and your content is the only thing keeping me stable enough to still go through my daily life and not let the sadness spiral. What you do is so important and you’ve changed lives

[@JocelynLehman]

Working on daily habits is a big thing I’m focusing on this year as well! I haven’t looked too much into bullet journaling but one thing I have incorporated into my monthly routine is a habit tracker!! It helps keep me on top of all of the little things I want to accomplish each day!

[@sarahsamuel.s]

your lipstick colour in the intro is everything!!!

[@tayymcneall9686]

I was literally just looking on her website and then she posted this and then she posted this and my whole day was made

[@user-ep8bk5ku6g]

I love your new way to write the quotes.

[@kezzandmaya8124]

You're honestly so inspiring x

[@kezzandmaya8124]

Your videos are also beautifully shot x

[@canyoucarrymybags]

shes the best

[@edurnegarridogimenez7788]

your videos always put me in the best mood ever, you inspire me so much. keep doing what you do, you are amazing at it. i can't wait to read dreamcatcher!!

[@christinamaytomkins7311]

Please can you start doing fitness friday

[@thehierophantsecrets]

I literally stopped everything watch this video! I love it. It’s perfect timing because I’m at the gym and need the motivation to keep going! ❤️

[@B.Mindful]

You are my little inspiration coach I swear- I love your Monica Geller moments. I love your motivation. I love that your into so many things I’m into like meditation, yoga, working out, reorganizing and redecorating your space to maintain a clear head. I’m so much like you in so many ways. No other channel I follow comes close to inspiring me to keep it up like yours does. Your awesome! Keep the blogs and videos going!

[@MajaLovesBiebs]

Love you Kalyn. You are so inspiring. You saved my night giiirl.

[@gracemusial9186]

Good job, I applaud you for actually pulling through and changing your habits because it can be pretty hard. 😊

[@kaiyaroma]

Try using the Calm app! The instructor is a woman and her voice is way more soothing! 😌 p.s- i LOVE that your content aligns with everything I want to be doing right now. And this is a great source for me when I’m looking for motivation. Just seeing you stick to it, and making these videos as an example! I just love it so thank you 😌💕

[@216flypearls]

Takaiyaa the calm app is bomb! Have you tried the sleep stories? I️ agree. Her voice is calming 💜💜

[@annemanda1117]

Takaiyaa o

[@kaiyaroma]

i haven't yet! but I'm definitely going to now lol

[@Novelust]

I love how your resolutions and goals are both internally and externally geared. I don't think people make the connection that increasing your mental and emotion health in turn helps with your physical health and productivity. Lovely video showing both xx

[@ciaralaynex95]

Can't believe you've already been in Toronto for a year! I remember your moving vlog and how PROUD I was of you (I say this like I actually know you... but in a way, I do! We all know you.) You were the first KZbinr I fell in love with, solely because of your authenticity. And the fact that you've been through shit but you never let it stop you. Thank you for continuing to share your life with us, and for being my own constant inspiration. Love youuuuuuuu

[@LukeAlexander]

Loving these motivational New Years Videos❤ you're really inspiring my Channel 😁

[@lagueux19]

You should try the app "calm" for meditation! It's really good and the voice isn't annoying haha ily

[@Coffeeandchill20]

I am literally living for these Sunday vlogs. 😍😍😍 I love you so much

[@Coffeeandchill20]

Your videos are my jam 😄😻😻

[@daughteroftheking8181]

You need the "Habits" app! You can visually track what you've done/not done all week and see your "Streak"! :)

[@bbkey3021]

Motivation Queen goes to Kayln Nicholson!!!!

[@AskWhyMoreOften]

Changing your sleep routine and sleep hygiene takes time. Incremental steps back by 15 minutes or so as your body adjusts will help you fall asleep more readily at that time. As someone who has struggled with insomnia for 15 years and has finally got it figured out I hope some of my hard won lessons help: set bedtime alarms (change the sound for this to be less jarring and more relaxing) and set them earlier than you think necessary. The first one should be more of a reminder to do all of the pre-bedtime things (get washed up, have some Sleepytime tea if you like, get changed into PJs if not already, last call for dog pee trips (I've got a 12 year old small dog, I'm no stranger to the before bed routine for him as well), set another alarm for an hour before you'd like to get to sleep. Try to put away screens, listen to an audiobook or read, journal, bullet journal about things to be done the following day so it's not on your mind as you fall asleep. I'm not sure about headspace, but the Buddhify app has a lot of bedtime meditations, from progressive muscle relaxations, to over a dozen just for sleep, and more for when you are having a hard time falling asleep. If all else fails, focus on your breathing for a while, that usually works. If not, read some more but maybe on the couch - don't stay in bed when you can't sleep. These are the things that helped me, but never be too hard on yourself. You got this! You just picked a resolution that takes time to get into.

[@kimravangar6127]

i watch your videos, and in the middle im soooo inspired and motivated that i just jump out and start doing stuff and then end up watching the rest after ive done sooo many tasks. thanks a million you’re amazing!

[@cindyrodarte5903]

I love how your little pup just pops up in random times through out your blog. I love it! it'd my favorite part to your videos!

[@brendagoncalves8186]

You are perfect & so inspiring, happy to know you are shooting to live your best life every single day 💕😊

[@lenathestrange]

I have the same popcorn machine, I'm currently reading big magic, I can't stop buying millenial pink things, I unwind watching Friends almost every evening and I'm a pisces too.......twinning af !

[@alondramarure65]

Can I just say thank you. I know we don't know eachother and that it's weird sometimes to hear that people genuinely enjoy your vids but I do. They really have helped me feel less sad lately. Thank you!

[@risharaniga5525]

I miss the old apartment! This is a great way to start my day! Thanks Kalyn ❤️!

[@larissanewberry552]

I think "Gyst Juice" is the most Kalyn thing you've ever said lmao 😂💕

[@taylorb3432]

She needs to make a mug for Koze saying that!

[@LineLeknesund]

LOVE your videos, Kalyn!! So excited to watch this one, xx

[@geli2638]

Seriously Kalyn, I swear you freaking change my entire week with your videos. I immediately feel so motivated to plan out my week and get sh*t done as soon as I watch your videos and I just feel so so happy. Keep doing you no matter what, you're the bomb diggity!!

[@randzreigat6112]

My all-time favorite KZbinr ❤️

[@kaylatcompton]

I stuck to all my habits this week! Apps that hold me accountable have been the best thing!

[@rawrsam107]

Beautiful tips! Can’t stop staring at how perfect your makeup and hair is ❤️😍

[@nathaliewalker569]

i don’t know really why but you just motivated the shit out of me. I was really into gisting and organizing stuff but I didn’t made new year resolutions but I’m gonna start today. I’m starting now and with what I have to be the best version of myself. Thank you so much!! you’re my motivation

[@MariahGlenn]

I’m doing really good with mine actually. Better than I ever have in the past. And I think you’re a huge reason why. Thank you for making these videos. Your channel is literally changing my life 🖤

[@anastasijadujkovic6888]

You actually do not believe how much I improved and grew as a person since you motivate me on a daily basis. Many habits I got used to are just because of your existence! Appreciating you to the fullest, much love from Germany and a big thank you ❤️

[@BrittneySunB]

Girl, these videos are about get me through 2018! They’re So motivating they might get me through 2019 and 2020 😬🙌🏽👏🏽

[@esthersimpledays6289]

I've LOVED this video! It pushes me to keep going, to make my life whatever I wanna make out of it, to better myself and to not feel alone because there you are, fighting and working towards something right by my side. Thanks Kalyn, what an AWESOME start ☺

[@BloodSisterProductions]

i LOVE meditating lying down. whenever i sit i can't really relax for some reason. it works when i'm on the train, but not when i'm at home.

[@LaurenRoberta]

I aspire to be more like you! So inspiring!

[@estherju6753]

Literally stopped everything to watch you, already know it’s worth it🙌🏼 #queenposted

[@torimcgregor3358]

hi Kalyn, I also used to struggle with getting up in the morning and going to bed early until I read the miracle morning. a complete game changer for me and now I love my 5am mornings! I highly recommend this book if you're serious about your 11pm bedtime and 7am habit. xox

[@Hartwik]

I am a guy but I really enjoy your videos they are just so inspirational and beautiful...i like how aesthetically pleasing they are with the contrasts between the darker and lighter colours in your videos. And you are such a vibrant person, thanks for making videos Kayln.

[@madelineheimer2666]

plz do at home strength workout or like the strength workout stuff you do at your gym (ily)

[@kelseeylesliee]

you are killing the new year so far girl, obsessed with all these videos!!

[@TheTaylorLayne]

I love how motivating everyone is this time of year... now we just need the momentum to last! We got this

[@ambertaryn]

I love these longer videos so much

[@camilerner7949]

Every time I see her videos i can’t believe how perfect she is. She inspires all of us without even knowing it. ❤️

[@angel0092]

You're so motivating and inspirational. Whenever I feel unproductive and see myself getting stuck in a rut I come and see your videos to help get back on track. Thank you so much for everything you do.

[@meirabroderick5646]

I'm in love with headspace. Been going through the anxiety pack and it's been helping so much. I definitely understand what you mean about feeling so calm and good after doing one of the meditations.

[@zahrasumar8676]

Just watched this video and it warms my heart that you've accomplished publishing Catcher and worked this hard to fulfill your goal. You're an inspiration xx

[@abignoux]

you are one of the most motivational people i know. so glad i found your channel 2 years ago 😚

[@emilyk7410]

I can only meditate laying down too, but I think it's important to do whatever you need to get the most out of it!

[@carleighraderstorf8482]

My favorite meditation app is stop breathe think. It’s so good, I’ve been using it for about a year now. I love it for guided meditations

[@lexamarie8483]

Headspace has an amazing deal for their yearly prescription on right now girl!! I’ve been loving this app for so many months now I hope u continue loving it too💗

[@jordanthon398]

When I started meditating I liked HeadSpace because it teaches you how to acknowledge your thoughts and move on but I eventually started to use the app called Calm, its really really good too.

[@christinamariemoney]

Whenever I watch your videos I always miss when I lived in Toronto! I’m currently living in Newfoundland now! 🇨🇦 love how inspiring your videos always are Kalyn! Much love! Xo

[@brookes4802]

I’ve been refreshing all day for this! Love ya ❤️

[@christiewilliams3558]

Just a little fitness tip. If you want to improve your run time start incorporating sprint intervals on the treadmill or outside. Do this every other day and I guarantee you will see improvements.

[@savannahparry2494]

I love how organized you are ❤️ I'm a very organized person but sometimes whenever I get into those lazy times or so overwhelmed by everything going on around me watching your videos always help inspire me. Btw, possible video idea: updated ab routine? That would be great since I like to change up my routine every once in awhile to work the muscles more. Thanks!

[@unicorn7934]

Literally nothing can make me feel better than your motivational and inspiring videos!!

[@selina6333]

I just love your videos. Always makes me want to jump off my chair and do stuff like cleaning or doing something creative. I'm absolutely feeling the aesthetic and clean vibes you and your videos are sending. Thanks Kalyn! ♥

[@clairewood99]

I've had several New Years resolutions, some of them like eating healthier and working out more haven't worked out yet because I haven't had the opportunity since I've been busy but I've actually managed to keep my room tidy for a week (something rare for me) and write down in my journal everyday, I'm from England and my biggest goal this year is to travel to America and Canada! Love you ❤️

You look extremely beautiful lately!!!! Love from Poland ❤❤❤

[@FionaLundy]

Loved this & the previous 2 videos!!! It’s Monday morning here in the U.K. & I’ve now got 15 mins to get ready for my clients but it was soooooo worth it to watch your last 3 videos whilst I was all cozy on my sofa!!!! Looooove it!! Thank you & yes please ‘plan with me monthlies’ 👍🏻

[@Ambzx]

Ugh loved this so much. Honestly you inspire be every time to be my best, to follow my dreams and to get my shit together. I don’t know you, but these videos are like my best friend coming to rescue every time I need it. Sounds silly, but it is. You are an amazing person and you look also very sweet and down to earth. This youtubing thing didn’t like change you into a “fame obsessed” person. Not at all. You are honest and true to yourself. Anyway, thanks! :)

[@giiaannaa1]

you should check out the app productive! you can create things you want to get into the habit of doing and pick the times of day you want to do them and how often, like daily weekly monthly...you develop streaks of how many habits you've achieved in a row. i have it and it's definitely motivating to continue doing whatever habit i have (like reading more) because i don't want there to be a break in my streak

[@giiaannaa1]

could you do a like beginner's guide to working out? like how to create a workout routine; what to do for a warm up, how long, what kind of exercises to do and how many reps and a cool down? i'm so lost when it comes to making routines, i just find whatever exercises i see on pinterest and do that but i never know what to do for a cool down or warm up

[@elliotjamesrattner1216]

I'm so obsessed with that golden jumper omg. It goes so well with your skin tone and your hair colour, is that weird? That's probably weird, but I love it.

[@adelejonsson375]

I know it's not reasonable to ask for more, but I want SO many more videos from you on the reg. You inspire my entire life. If I'm feeling sluggish and can't seem to get anything done, I'll watch your videos and all of a sudden have a whole lot of energy to get my life together. Also, Vlogs for the win!

[@katiee5903]

you are such a motivation for me!!! i am trying to bed at 11pm & rising at 7am becuase of you! also i am trying to work out & do yoga 5x a week! your awesome love you and your channel!!!!

[@madelainericard8924]

Since January 1st my family and I have been sticking to the Whole 30 cleanse really well and it's really hard but I have been sticking through it! It's a cleanse to get your body out of relying on sugar to give you energy, so it is no sugar, no dairy, no wheat, and nothing processed. (It isn't vegan though) I'm pretty happy with how I've started the year off so far!

[@fatimazohra2224]

Kalyn you're such an inspiration! I've been following your content for over 2 years now and you just never let us down. Love you girl ❤️ keep up the good work.

[@ash12787]

I only discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I absolutely love your content - ive been binge watching every chance i get! I dont know what it is, but I just find your videos so relaxing and motivating and calm, it is bringing me a lot of joy :)
