    My favourite self-care activity is typically making the trek to the big Chapters in my city (there's a smaller, mall-sized one near me but the big one is so magical), getting some starbucks, and just browsing. I LOVE the atmosphere, it is so soothing. And since there's a starbucks in Chapters I can sit and read. It's great.

    I am an advocate for self-care days or "take yourself on a date" days. I think they are such a good idea and much needed for everyone. I have not done one in a few years and since I just finished watching this video, I am going to plan a date for a self-care day for me. Thank you for this video Emma, self-care is priority number 1!

  • @neverendingsadventures

    For self care I tend to take a bubble bath with focus/meditation music on, tea in my hand, and a good book to read! I spend as much time as I want/need in there and a do not disturb sign keeps others from interrupting. :)

    @kvinettaf09 Před 5 lety

    Loved this ❤️ watching this video was a form of some of my self care for today haha. But doing things I love as well, I feel like I usually have a number of things on my to-do list and then a number of things I have that I want to do, for myself. And I try to balance them out while keeping on top of responsibilities at the same time. I've found it to be really important to me ❤️

  • @Mymakermovie77
    @Mymakermovie77 Před 5 lety

    Such a nice and calming video to watch. Loved the editing style!! For me self-care is skincare, reading, putting on some nice music and doing some yoga (or just hardcore dancing by myself) and colouring in one of those colour books for adults. I should do at least two of those tonight, and I definitely will!

  • @ms_victorious

    I really enjoy this type of content from you. I love your aesthetic, your kind reminder for self care and your vulnerability. You inspired me to organize a self care in my city when I finish my internship. I really enjoy tattoos too but I wouldn't incorporate them in my self care day since I tend to get "tattoo flu". Until now, in my self care days, I chose to stay at home, read a good book, take care of my skin and hang out with my cat but I think a day like yours would really be great for an introvert like me.

    I love the vibes of this video! It makes me realize that I desperately need a self care day, especially since I haven't had one in a while! As cliché as it sounds, I personally like to put on a face mask and read! Netflix kind of drains me, but reading always gives me energy and motivation!

    @galexiefaraway Před 5 lety

    I loved this so deeply. I live in CT and when my anxiety or depression are too bad I hop on a train and go to new york for the day. I type up my itinerary in my phone notes and put my phone on DND. Your NY day is similar to mine in that I do the same for self care. My day is different acticity wise. I usually go to Cinnamon Snail for amazing vegan food and The Strand for all the books. Maybe I catch a show or maybe I go to a cool limited time pop up for something.
    Loved this video SO SO much, Emma. Hope life is treating you well.
