VLOG 🎨 reconnecting to hobbies for better mental health 🖌 Seoul Crafts Market | Sissel

[@adriennehilll]

When you said we end up wasting our time on being productive… oooof that one hit me hard 🥲 thank you for bringing more awareness to this. I think more people needed to hear this message than you realized

[@sisselab]

It felt like a revelation when I wrote it too 🙊

[@mmaim881]

totally agree !!

[@cryingrainbowdrops]

It's crazy cause I read it a lot today! Like for the first time! Maybe it's a sign...?🤔

[@cathyjin7215]

Seeking validation for everything has been programmed into society as a way to almost justify our existence. So I think I always strived to be good at my hobbies, to a point where it took the enjoyment out of them. Thank you for the reminder sissel, will try to just do things for the pure enjoyment of things, no expectations.

[@sisselab]

Exactly, I wish you the best of luck! 💚

[@debbiecrum7585]

I realize that age does not matter in the content of this vlog. I am 64 years old, and I realize that passion before work should be a definite goal in life. I worked all my life from the age of 15years old to 62. Health issues made me stop working, or else I probably would continue that path until I died. I sat for months in a slump because I did not know what to occupy all this new time I had. One day, I came across your channel. Something about you sparked my being into action. Like a flame to a wick on a candle, it started a journey of self learning. Self learning about what makes me happy, what passions, I use to love in my youth, new learning on any and all subjects, health betterment... I could go on and on. I totally agree passions are indeed good for mental clarity. I will follow you forever. You brought back the girl I use to be instead of the old lady I had become.

[@sisselab]

Dear Debbie, what a beautiful and truly soul touching message. I’m so honored that you found such motivation by watching my videos, but mostly honored by you sharing your story. I know we can all learn from you. Thank you for being here 💚

[@ayandamokwana]

I enjoy how you always shower and STILL have time to do whatever before leaving the house. I never feel the typical “Omg I’m late again” trope that most people like. The video is relaxed and peaceful. Also says a lot about your character

[@username-b.l]

Ahhhh I'm doing the same exact thing! Reconnecting to my art and I've got so many plans! ✋😩♥️

[@sisselab]

That is amazing! 💚

[@mathilde23]

I didn't know I needed to hear this, you're such an inspiration, thank you so much Sissel 💚

[@khalilahd.]

Because most of us are obsessed with hustle culture doing something just for fun is almost foreign to me. But I love that you remind us that enjoying the small moments in life for the simple purpose of dining joy is just as important as productivity. Thanks for this reminder 💜

[@sisselab]

The issue lies in thinking in order to be productive, every minute we have “excess” of has to be used for hustling. It’s so important to spare these for just ... being 💚

[@cecitoft]

Wow, you seem so relaxed and genuinely happy in this video. Such a pleasure to watch you this comfortable (in lack of a better word). Your personality really shines a lot more than I have noticed previously. Not saying that prev. videos weren't good, I just haven't seen you hit this level before - Keep going girl! You are reaching new levels!

[@sisselab]

I definitely felt such a different and stronger motivation and happiness in filming this video. After allowing myself to changing my content a bit into what I love, I feel reborn. Thank you for noticing 💚

[@goddesskookie1115]

I found this video inspiring. Lately I've been thinking about what it is I truly want and how I can create the life I truly desire while finding hobbies and activities that bring in passion and happiness. At the moment I'm kind of stuck, being forced to study in a university and study a career I do not want. I'd love to drop out and pursue my passions, but until I can find a way to leave home, I'll have to stick with this. But in the meantime I can find something else that inspires me and brings me joy. ❤️

[@rachelbehr7234]

Sissel I LOVE that you made this vid, I’ve recently been really working hard to rediscover my hobbies as an adult and it has been so fulfilling. I love your new vids sm!!!!

[@sisselab]

Absolutely! Adults are no different from kids when it comes to the joy and fulfillment hobbies bring 💚

[@Karolina-dr8du]

I was talking about the same topic with my friend the other day. I feel like as we grow up and get older we tend to focus so much on working and being productive all the time that we tend to forget about these little things we used to love as kiddos. For me itš draving, doodling, ceramics, making jewelery etc. thank you for reminding me

[@user-cm5tv3qg8o]

Can’t wait to watch! I’m so excited for this vlog, I haven’t done things I used to love in years, maybe I’ll be inspired- actually I’m sure I will! Thanks Sissel🤍

[@sisselab]

Hope you enjoy love 💚

[@akaCJ]

Thanks for the introduction to Charles and Keith... Firstly wow what gorgeous stuff, secondly affordable (mostly 😂), lastly available in New Zealand... I'm stoked

[@lunareclipse00]

I looove painting💞🎨 You're inspiring Sissel!

[@sisselab]

💚✨

[@piadabrown]

You look refreshed, Sissel! It seems like you've gained new motivation, so thanx for passing on the good vibes ✨ I've been an employee since I was 18 and have tried many professions to find a job that I'm truly good at. What made me feel like I was struggling increased from year to year until it became a burden. I ended up going to work like a robot, leaving there feeling empty and instead of cherishing the few hours left of my spare time I preferred cuddling up in bed, not being able to sleep cause I was worrying so much. I wasn't burnt out, but I felt like I was no better than average and peoples expectations kept weighing me down. I wasn't proud of talking about my job, I was more ashamed to talk about it. But then, a few years ago I realised this wasn't the way to live a life. I started to be part-time self employed and realised I was good at it because I loved what I did! Then last year I worked up the courage of being full-time self employed. I was afraid all the responsibility could be too much, but I was doing well because I was highly motivated and as a person it completely changed my mind set. Now I enjoywork and my spare time even more. But even when you are happy, there are downfalls. I had tough time with some relationship issues (7th year curse is real! LOL) and it totally threw me of in my creative ways. I felt stuck. But once you realise you are the one in charge of solving the issue it all goes back to a positive streak! What I want to say is that even when you are doing well and seem to have the upper hand, it's ok to struggle. It's truly just a phase and you're in control of finding a way to make yourself feel better 💚☺️

[@sisselab]

What a truly inspiring story! 💚

[@ShetlovertJ]

I look forward to your videos every week.💕 Every time you are spot on with what im going through in life. It's like i'm watching a friend giving me advice. Also you put everything into words so well, what i am feeling. You are such an amazing person Sissel. Keep being you💚

[@sisselab]

Aww thank you Shannon! Wish you the best 💚

[@angelacastro1484]

Your video arrived just in time for me. These past days I was so focused on doing very productive things and I reached a point where my days were just that, me doing these "productive" things 24/7. I felt so drained and unhappy. But yesterday I started a new hobby, which is watercolor painting and while doing so, I felt so good, I was finally doing something different and it basically filled my heart 💕

[@sisselab]

I’m so happy to hear that 💚

[@izamarassilva]

Seeing this after had bought my first plant yesterday (yay) and started searching about going back to study Spanish made happier about the decisions I've been doing. Also, the podcast theme is everything I need to hear these days, going to listen to it right now as I start cooking my lunch. Hope you had a nice Sunday and have a great week 💚✨

[@sisselab]

So happy for you!! Enjoy your hobbies (and the new podcast ep hehe) 💚

[@lae235]

This resonates a lot with me. I am in a weird and painful part of my life where I just lost my identity and landmarks about what is a "great" life. My values have been destroyed and I feel so lost without them. It's hard to think about making a great life for yourself when you have to unlearn all what society taught you until now :s hard and painful but exciting !

[@karenb361]

I really needed this. As a final-year university student, I've been stuck in this cycle of productivity for a while, meaning that I have had little time (or little motivation) to reconnect to my hobbies. It's as if studying and working are the only things I can dedicate myself, otherwise I won't be as productive as I want to be. Yet, hobbies can be such a healthy distraction that your mind and body need. Thank you for this amazing reminder!

[@sisselab]

💚

[@mmaim881]

those introducing words were really beautiful and caught me directly - cultivating female energy, to BE more and not to do more 🥰

[@TifaHeart]

8 years ago I moved to Switzerland for money. To find a normal job and get out of the ''survival mode'' I was stuck in. In two months I will be moving back to my homeland. I have an amazing job, amazing coworkers, options to get promoted but it doesn't do it for me. And now I am going back without a plan, job, apartment. Just turning a new page because it got too comfortable. And I am scared but at the same time really excited. Because you know what? It will work out. Without even knowing I will make it work. And this time I will not be employee. I will not wait for the weekends to come. It will work out. Just like I did it 8 years ago despite not knowing the language, not having anyone here. And Sissel beacause of you I am even more excited haha. :D You just make me wanna live and explore more.

[@sisselab]

Ahhhhhh I’m so so happy and excited for you! 💚

[@SOLERITY]

Hello again!💚 I think trying many activities or simply going somewhere in Korea are easy and affordable. I live in Italy, Here everything is so confusing and difficult Ahah so I sometimes miss my life in Seoul. I'm so happy to watch your video and see how you enjoy city life in Seoul!! Thank you for sharing💕💗

[@shasisstuff]

that washing machine shot 🥺 you editing never fails to amaze me

[@sisselab]

Awwww that’s so nice of you to say ! 💚

[@poppycalliope]

Just finished watching Kieun 's vlog and now you uploaded Sissel? Sunday made! 💕✨🌿 Also! I love how much your channel is growing, you deserve millions and millions subbies ❤

[@sisselab]

Thank you love💚

[@calistaisaacs6547]

Seeing your video has brought me so much joy, thank you. 💞 Sending you love.

[@sisselab]

Thank you so much 💚

[@ilaria.present]

Uff there are so many hobbies I would like to try/continue but they are all so expensive for me, but this video inspired me to try finding some cheap hobbies I could try. I hope you all have a wonderful day 💚

[@sisselab]

Yess there are endless possibilities with hobbies that doesn’t cost must! I’ve come to enjoy hiking, skipping, cleaning, writing affirmations etc 💚

[@HeeJungIll]

Working 10-7 for someone that prioritizes sleep above all else frankly leaves no room for any of the hobbies I used to love when I was a kid. Thank you for the reminder ❤️

[@sisselab]

Yeah, the 9-5 vibe isn’t catered to most people on this planet .... 🥺💚

[@e7ilis]

Sissellll thank u so much for this video. You sum up my mood these days.I love it and you❤️

[@sisselab]

💚💚💚

[@nikkimartin586]

Sissel, I just love the vibe you’ve been radiating on this channel lately 💚💚💚 Honestly you’ve been helping me teach myself how to be more gentle to my mind and body everyday 🌿🥰

[@sisselab]

Thank you 🥺💚

[@laurak0797]

Love to see you being creative!

[@sisselab]

Hahahaha dang, I can’t believe it was so expensive haha 🤣 And yeah, I definitely should! I was just so mesmerized by such beautiful colors 😍 but definitely will haha 💚

[@1una_a]

Your videos make my day Sissel

[@sisselab]

💚

[@sugaringirl]

a very much needed vlog, you constantly encourage me to connect with both my spiritual self and my inner child. im so grateful for you sissel, enjoy the upcoming week lovely!!

[@sisselab]

💚💚💚

[@mmaim881]

love your interior, especially your living room is soo aesthetic 🤍

[@adeleange]

This video came out at a perfect time for me, today i was trying to study at a library but i just couldn´t because i was tired. I spent 2 hours trying to be productive, then i saw the notification, started the video but couldn´t finish it so i went back home, had a nap and now it´s night time, i´m having my dinner while finishing, so yeah, totally right about this. Society maKe us work non stop so we can survive, but we barely live. There somedays that i don´t see my mum and we live in the same house just because she has to work her ass off. I´m so tired sometimes, life should not be this way, for me what´s keeps me going is trying to do something for myself every day. SO TO EVERYONE READING THIS, WE CAN DO IT, RIGHT?

[@sisselab]

WE CAN DO IT 💚

[@thequierra]

The camera in the washer though. 👌🏽 Appreciation. ☺️ I love everything about this video. Saved. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@sisselab]

🙊💚

[@leticiamorales6399]

[@Little99Monster]

Yey, cozy sunday with Sissel

[@fatimaezzahraejjebli1133]

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. This video came at the right time for me. As i am abit lost in my life about what to do next and been feeling down lately. I think as you did, i will try doing new stuff and try new hobbies. Thank you sissel 💚❤

[@sisselab]

Good luck love 💚

[@blueformila1648]

currently binging all your videos while finishing my fashion illustrations for school, this uploaded at a perfect time thank you 🤍

[@sisselab]

Aww you make me smile 💚 good luck with the illustrations ! 💚

[@Anonymous-ug9oj]

I actually miss stretching too... I haven't done that in years because I always didn't make a time for me to do that. These days too I've been having breakdown more than usual too and gaming is kinda a distraction from everything but my mother always makes me feel guilty of doing so lately too she be criticising me of all the things that makes me feel good as a way to make me feel guilty only because my medical exam is around the corner and not caring for the rest. Even tho Sissel you've change up your content which I am nit complaining you are doing a really good job and helping us through it, I do hope you make vlogs too once in a while 💚

[@paolabiasi9072]

Love how you close the blinds so nobody sees you from the outside while dancing, but then you let see the internet. Anyways, just wanted to let you know that I really love your channel and the message you’re trying to spread to your community, love you 💕

[@sisselab]

Aww haha actually I don’t mind the outside seeing it! I closed the blinds for my purple sunset lamp to make it magic 🙊💚

[@mnaoitb1]

THAT BUTTER BAG IS SO CUTE!!!!! butter is my fave colour right now

[@janninepenados8462]

Sissel am someone who almost or never comments. But, it's been some real challenging weeks. Today just another day like those, but watching your video, is giving me some sense of peace. Thank you Sissel, keep growing and taking care of yourself 💚. I appreciate your videos very much.

[@sisselab]

[@danicaarlene]

Thank you for this vlog sissel 💛 This is what I feel lately that I think too much of wanting to be productive and end up wasting my time being productive and does not feel at peace

[@sisselab]

Exactly 💚

[@jenniferstefani8613]

My soul needed this video💚💚✨

[@sweetpototo7945]

[@ytuseracct]

Artist here, the expensive paper you pointed out is actually one of the best if not the best and gallery standard watercolor paper.

[@sisselab]

Woww, it looked so beautiful ! 💚

[@_tttoper_8175]

Every time you've said "I actually..." I was expecting you to end it "do curse a little" 🤣

[@sisselab]

Hahahahhahah🤣💚

[@mmaim881]

[@sisselab]

Thanks!💚

[@Moon_li28]

❤❤❤

[@f3rnandariv3ra77]

Hi Sissel!, your video is so relaxing, thank you. I have a couple of advices for your painting practice :) You should try to mix your acrylics on a piece of glass, so they don't get absorb by the paperboard. Also, for mixing colors I recommend you to use an spatula, it's easier that way. Have a nice day! 🌺💗🌺💗

[@sisselab]

Thanks love! Absolutely, I don’t have those items tho so I’m just working with what I got 💚 some day!

[@Ronja.]

That was such an awesome video, it totally made me feel better and was inspirational. It made me think about my own situations, as I'm not experiencing a lot of happiness at university. I've also been trying to find a cute mug for my relaxing tea time, do you maybe remember the name of the shop where you went to? I'd be very happy to stop by there🤗

[@tinahuegel]

Your videos are so inspiring. I'm in this situation, that I'm working most of the time and struggle to find enough energy for my hobbies. I manage to do some of it in my free time but I wish I had more time in general to pursue my interests 😅 But as I need my job also for my visa I haven't found a good solution yet.

[@user-cm5tv3qg8o]

💚

[@TJSIlver]

You deserve like 10M subscribers Sissel

[@sisselab]

Awww💚

[@user-cm5tv3qg8o]

beautiful video as always!

[@favourwokocha5663]

I know its weird to ask...but how do people get hobbies. I'm trying to improve myself and enjoy the time I spend with myself

[@ronjag97]

Haha, I had a random run-in with Siwon when I lived in Seoul as well, and I totally feel you about him being just as attractive as in the pictures

[@sisselab]

So yummy jeez 🤣💚

[@Ana-yt2nv]

Where is your brown leather jacket from? :)

[@doodlesbydannie]

Where can I listen the podcast? ✨ thank you !

[@Victoria-rb7wj]

Hey Sissel, would you mind giving the name of that pottery shop at 22:17. My mom absolutely loves those types of unique mugs. ✨💚

[@sisselab]

Ahh sorry I don’t know the name, but it was located around 7 min from Anguk st💚

[@1dk-poplover710]

What's the bar at the end called? :)

[@sisselab]

Kiwa tap room 💚

[@Risu_gxmes]

Can someone please tell me what's the name of her podcast?

[@sisselab]

After Sunset 💚

[@deisygonzalezzapata3732]

Does anyone know where her pearl necklace is from? ☺️

[@sisselab]

Which one of them? I make most of my jewelry myself actually, but the one in the end of the video is from @byalmanielsen💚

[@deisygonzalezzapata3732]

Ahhh Sissel! 😮🥰 Yes, it’s that one. Thanks for letting me know!

[@debbiecrum7585]

Sissel,who was that beautiful young girl at the end of this video? Is her name Hattie?

[@sisselab]

Hattie from Jin & Hattie on KZbin 💚

[@debbiecrum7585]

I thought so. How did you two meet?

[@laurenpecha5136]

As a frequent near plant-murderer myself, please cut off the dead stems of your plants which are taking energy away from your living stem. Which works well with your metaphor: Leaving parts of our lives that don’t serve us takes away from the parts that do. But, please… save your plant 😂

[@sisselab]

Of course !! I only first noticed one stick survived when I was filming this 🤣💚

[@albertocortes2495]
