- Hey friends! How do you manage your stress and anxiety?
Link to the Lily Shirt: www.bonfire.com/have-a-beauti...
This is a video topic I've thought about for a few weeks now. I considered how I face and overcome my own stress. As usual, I don't profess to be an expert on this. People have asked for my thoughts on this topic, and I'm sharing this in the hopes that some people can learn from my experience and mistakes.
I discovered that most of my stress came from doubt and uncertainty. As we try new things-which we SHOULD do sometimes!-we're bound to face this.
An important factor I could have emphasized more in the video is the importance of introspection. Discovering what is causing our stress and mitigating the causes will bring us peace in the long run. Ignoring our stress can sometimes make it worse.
My philosophy on stress management comes down to 3 things:
1.) Accept that some things are out of our control and plan accordingly. Our doubt and uncertainty is almost always paired with a fear of failure. Sometimes the results we want are not the ones that happen. Rather not ignoring this possibility, allow yourself to know that it may happen and ask yourself what you will do if it does. For example, some students face stress in exam season. Nobody wants to fail their finals, but what happens if they do? After the initial onset of panic from this thought, I think our minds start to realize that it's NOT the end of the world. Acceptance of a bad outcome prepares us to adapt and overcome if it becomes reality.
2.) Adopt the things that ARE in our control into a routine. Rather than relying on bursts of motivation, translate your goals into a PROCESS. If you're stressed about your personal fitness, find a routine you can do a few times a week. The example I use in the video is about brushing teeth. Most times, we don't feel inspired to brush our teeth. If we only brushed our teeth when we're motivated, most of us would probably have poor dental health. Keep this process realistic. If you're new to fitness, don't suddenly try to exercise 2-3 hours a day. Keep a CORE to your routine that you can do no matter how busy or tired you get. Commit to the core and then do more when you're able to. Having this realistic process gives us solace because we know we're taking steps towards our goals.
3.) There are times when you may get misidentify if something is in or out of your control. Remember to be forgiving to yourself about these mistakes, and they are part of our learning process.
Hope this helps!

I'm a bit tired so I'm going to sleep. I'll answer more questions in the morning. I hope you're all having a great weekend!

Sure coach, thank you for sharing :)
Thanks for sharing this! It helps a lot 🥰🥰
Will you play the new pokemon games Hampton?
Take all the time you need
What a good soul you are
Started the obvious
This is the crossover I didn’t know I needed
Faith is strong with this one!
What a beautiful voice and soul you have!
You two should just have aura babies
I accidentally read the title as "Seducing Stress and Anxiety" and quite honestly I'm disappointed. I'd have loved to be told how to seduce my problems away.
I'm sure if you are as seductive as humanely possible your stress won't be able to resist 😉
@@nicj5354 ✋🤨
It's super easy. Show your problem too much love and they'll leave👌

@@HybridCalisthenics Go to sleep already 😂
@@soumitganguly2789 Yes, it’ll reduce stress.
I'm pretty sure he craps and farts just like the rest of us. Get over your weird crush. You don't know him, and he doesn't know you.
@@billpeet1976 I don’t think you quite understand.
“Follow the plan, plan for change.” Something that was said in a leadership course I took at work.
This is a fantastic line!
Next video idea...
You CAN fly, my friend!
Anyone can build to be able to fly!
The progressions are fairly straight forward...
*Thank you for the thoughtful content. I am glad I found your joyful channel.
My relatable takeaway: Don't overthink stuff beyond your control, do everything within your limits & be confident. But don't rule out the possibility of negative outcomes as well, just be prepared of that too. 🤠
Hampton reduces my stress levels by talking with a forest in the background. Hufflepuff 101% vibes, soothing the rest of us.
what if Hampton’s a Slytherin
@@shru_theblack.knight_2320 impossible!
Well, he is very cunning. He made even me start to work out.
@@Everyyoueverymiau people, stahp!
@@visennamhw-tv4bi Just a joke. I am a Hufflepuff and I do claim him as well 😀
I need more people like him in my life
There is one person in the world like this and its him
Agree
@@blueklaoodprogamer9008 I’m sure you know what he actually means...
How about "be more like him to people in your life"?
The problem is, how to find good people out there who are willing to have a friendship with you??
Friend, my mom also passed on in April of 2020. It’s amazing and heart breaking at the same time to see how life continues on. Thank you for the sound advice.
My mom loved bougainvilleas they always made a mess but it was a beautiful mess.
Sorry for your loss. Just know that you’re never alone. And she’s at peace in heaven just know that ❤️
Jesus Christ, this man has done more to calm my anxiety, stress, and self loathing than my therapist has... and he's just giving me his honest and genuine thoughts.
He is the best friend we all need; the big brother we all deserve !
This is the best channel and he's one of the best digital mentor we guys can have.... unsuccessful people with this guy we rise. It's our time now.
Start with ur pfp chuck
One of the many reasons I subscribed is because he begins with "hello my friends, it's your brother" 🥺🥰 best intro, thank you 😊
I’ve just graduated and trying to find a job rn is hell. Accepting that it’s not so bad and that I have no control makes me feel better. But it’s difficult to balance the acceptance of not having control and the complacency of not trying hard enough because you know you don’t have much control… it’s a mental battle
Im European and things might be different but how do have no control over finding a job?
@@optimusprime9363 Looking for jobs is easy, getting them is hard. There are a lot of experience professionals looking for jobs after the pandemic. There are great graduates with experience looking aswell. It’s more difficult than ever for inexperience grads to get jobs. Ironically, you need to have experience to get experience. It’s a loophole
@@skilllondon6716 that sucks I wish you all the best and good luck
I feel you, my friend. I've been there many a times. Something that helped me a lot is to hold on to the following quite / belief :
"What's meant for me WILL NOT pass me by"
What's not meant for you will never be yours no matter what, but what is meant for you cannot/will not pass you by. This belief has helped me heaps.
@@skilllondon6716 you got this man. Good luck 🤞🏽
Such a humble, lovely and friendly person. I could never be like you but I will try my hardest to be the best I can be. Although I do struggle lots. I wish you all the best and thank you for what you have said. The bush that you live in/near is lovely and I love these types of videos.
I love the thought that he lives inside a bush totally separate from this world😂
I love the way he says, "hello! It is your brother Hampton! "
This guy is the living definition of wholesome
This man is the epitome of everything good, peace, happiness, kindness
Thank you, sir, I've been extremely anxious because my life altering examinations' date is to be decided soon and I very recently lost my godmother too and everything seems like it's crumbling around me and my imposters syndrome isn't much of a help either. This gave me a lot of perspective on what's important and what I should do ☺️💜✨. I'm grateful ❤️
I'm glad the video could help at all! I'm sorry to hear about your godmother and your current situation. I hope things will get better for you! I'm cheering for your success. Best of luck on your exams!
Goodluck for your boards girl👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
@@HybridCalisthenics ☺️ Thank you, Hampton. You've been a constant support even though you do not know me, I'm so thankful ❤️
@@itsgeet Thank you, they got cancelled, I've been working hard for them but now I can't prove myself through them. No problem, still got NEET 😊💜✨
Imposters syndrome. A name now to what I’ve felt like since childhood “my favorite phoney”. That’s how I’ve felt. It really made me an underachiever
Its amazing how you manage to be so positive and caring for everyone around you. Even though you may be going through immense pain you are still trying to make the world a better place! I love your content and you are a major inspiration for me wanting to be more positive and to grow into a better person! Your mother would be extremely proud of you and the internet is lucky to have you!
It’s this rawness and sincerity that all of us appreciate and value so much! For those of us with different physical and/or mental health diagnoses, “just breathe” or “there never was a plan B” doesn’t resonate and will never be anything other than infuriating. Our lives aren’t just *fixed* when someone advises us to eliminate the stress; we’ve tried that our whole lives! It’s videos like these that make us feel heard and accepted
About the tooth brushing: where I live in Brazil usually people brush their teeth after every meal. It is not as common when eating out in social events, but if one goes to a restaurant during one's lunch break, for example, usually they'll have a toothbrush in their bag and use it when they get back at their work place.
Every drugstore here has kits with foldable toothbrushes (or cases to protect "normal", full-size toothbrushes) and smaller toothpastes
No way, that’s crazy because I noticed a lot of Brazil UFC fighters have really white teeth! I’ve never been to Brazil but that makes sense now. I’m gonna start to do that as best I can, thanks!
BRASIL IL IL IL
Verdades foram ditas!
Saudades de trabalhar e acabar escovando os dentes no banheiro do trabalho kjskjskjskjs
Agree with Carlos. I’d find odd if people didn’t brush their teeth after lunch at work.
In some Latin countries, people brush 3 times a week. Especially children, they come to lunch at home, they brush, tale a 15 minute nap & go back to school for the afternoon classes! You r great!!🌺
This guy's one of the greatest youtubers of all time and probably the absolute best exercise & health channel
I have braces, so I brush my teeth after almost every meal and it works like I usually go to the restroom after a meal and brush my teeth. I carry a small toothpaste and toothbrush to do that. If I don't brush them I at least rinse my teeth with water. I hope I clarified it for you at least a bit ;)
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Thank you so much for your videos Hampton! You emanate such a calm aura and just listening to you and talk about these different things somehow has a calming effect. Your heart is too pure and I admire the work that you do. Grateful for your existence 🌸
me: has to study
also me: watches 26 minute video because it's hampton
Shut up and study.
@@joooanit0224
Hey buddy thanks ( I need to study and I just started watching this video but after reading you I will watch this later )
Thanks for saving my schedule
Just what I needed .... I’ve went through anxiety and a nervous breakdown. I keep cycling back into getting worse then better. I get to paranoid, because of work environment. Nursing homes are so stressful. Mainly, the covid changes has changed how we do stuff. Most of our older workers more veterans have left. Lack of leadership. People treating others very bad. Gossiping about each other and never solving the problem.
Always starts as a problem and then a habit and then addiction for dopamine.
Problem + Habit = dopamine addiction
ok this is absurd....
i was searching that i randomly forget things after like 1 second, and it showed that it might be because of anxiety and stress...
and you just instantly uploaded this video... like are you in my house or smth???
why did i write this?
Hahaha must be sweet serendipity!
@@HybridCalisthenics lol
@@Maxioisdead1 LOL
Dude me too but I didn’t got this issue anymore trained my cognitive abilities to fix that, u can do this too
Nothing beats listen to your vlogs and just hearing that soothing voice and someone talk about this stuff and bring about bit of peace and awareness in life. Thanks for the coffee time talks. You a good man bud. Glad I found your channel.
Dude your channel is amazing, definitely helping with my anxiety each morning-noon when I sit down have my coffee and write down my schedule. Thanks for sitting down with us and helping bro!
Thank You. For someone dealing with this for 20 years now, I don't feel alone anymore. Much appreciated bruv.
Your summary at the end of the video reminded of what I read:
God give me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change, the COURAGE to change the things I can, and the WISDOM to know the difference. Love your videos & the positive community. 🌺
Your genuine you is very pure. The way you want to help the world is beautiful!! We accept you're human and we're just lucky you chose to help the world and thank you 🙏🏼💚
The fact that I stumbled upon this yesterday when I was about to have a mental breakdown. Your voice calms me so much. Thank you so much for this video
Honestly, I don’t mind how long the video is just as long as you’ve made your point and your message comes out properly..
Keep up the videos, you’ve honestly motivated me to get back in shape physically AND mentally!
Luv from down unda (Australia) ! 🙌🏽🇦🇺
I'm so glad to have been following your channel. This one has been sitting in my watch later for a while and I'm so glad I finally got to watch this!
For me recognising when I am stressing, helps a lot. At times I feel an overwhelming uncomfortable way as we all do. But lately I have started to just remind myself that I am stressing and and almost immediately it diminishes, not completely but just knowing what is going on in my mind or physical being, really helps for me.
I love how you give advice on health and fitness. Everything in moderation is perfect. I love how you don't go to the excessive and go like, " Just do it." About exercising. 💜
you my friend restore my hope in humanity, ive recently started eating better (much less junk food most of all) and even tho im nowhere near my goal as I just started about a month ago i feel better about myself, a big contribution to this is your videos.
I just want to say a huge thank you, you offer us so much without expecting anything!
I've managed to make leaps of proggress with your help, both physically and mentally and I'm extremely grateful
Somehow you feel more human in this video hampton. Thank you so much for sharing your struggles and pains with us. It shows that even if Hampton looks perfect from the outside, in the inside he's just as confused and figuring out his answers as everyone else is! It's really nice of you to share that dog story as well! A lot of the times, we give up way too easily and we beat ourselves up for it but then someone or something convinces us to be kind to ourselves and keep going. I hope you have a beautiful day and you take good care of yourself! And again, thank you my friend for the message!
Thank you. I needed this today and thank you for being honest and straightforward about how you are as a human being 🙏
I just found you while I was looking for some workout advice a few days ago, and now i just look at all of your videos. I love your "coffee" videos even more, you are an amazing person. In the world we live right now we need people like you more than ever, thank you 💜... sending love from Slovenia 🙏
Great video, as always. I've been watching a lot of your content lately, and started the routine on your website this week. There's a loooong road ahead, but it feels nice to have started it. Looking forward to the update.
You are a kind soul, thank you for everything. I'm sure your mother is proud of you.
You have no idea how much this has helped me. Your mother I'm sure would be so proud of who you've turned out to be. Thank you
I liked what you said at the end about core routines.
I do pushups, 2 types of squats, 100-ups, plank and reverse plank, backward lunges, and easy version of burpees.
I started with knee pushups being unable to do 1 pushup. I still can't do too many pushups(I weigh 350 lbs) but I do knee pushups too.
I'm just trying exercises adding what I think is useful. Cemented the workout over a month feel good when I work out. Need to add cardio to lose body fat.
I enjoy your videos you have a wealth of knowledge.
Found this guy a few days ago, I never really binge watch youtubers but these talks are so chill and helpful most of the time. He just seems like a really good person to be with and listen to
Just listening to him reduces my stress and anxiety. I watch these videos during work as a lion tamer
Can we acknowledge that this beautiful man is putting those videos fully packed of advice and wisdom out there for us FOR FREE? He is helping so many people and we should all be greatful for the work he puts into whatever he does.
Thanks for your honesty and clarity!!! You’re awesome.
I think I need this today. Right at this moment.
Mmmm, nah you don’t.
@@oxygendeprived2456 😂
@@oxygendeprived2456 Maybe you're right. Everything she needed was already inside her all along. This video just showed her the way.
Realistic expectations. Yes siree, that has been great for me. I feel much better having done something reasonable for me and still have time/energy for other things than to completely wear myself out.
I know you are not perfect and no one is. But, my goal is to surpass your mood and state of mind. Right now mine is in the darkness and has been for a very long time. I finally found the courage to face my darkness from life and am currently looking to bring light to it. Thank you for your inspiration.
Love your channel! I am starting my journey with calisthenics after years of inactivity due to knee injury from college volleyball. Love your positive and easy going personality🙌🏽
Physical symptoms of anxiety🙌
stomach pain, nausea, or digestive trouble.

weakness or fatigue.
rapid breathing or shortness of breath.
pounding heart or increased heart rate.
sweating.
trembling or shaking.
You just described me 🥲
@@Andrew20pp same. but what can we do? i just failed my driving test because of anxiety
@@f.a3202I remember failing my first test too. This is terrible advice if you ask me but I blamed the crappy roads by the DMV so I went to a different DMV in the nice side of town. That gave me confidence and passed the test. It went so well the instructor was practically on his phone the entire time. You jusneed to build confidence.
I have the final exam of my degree on monday, I really needed this thank you xx
Good luck, I hope it goes well. 😊
Good luck! I bet you will do just fine!🌺
Hey Hampton, I really love these videos! I would love to hear an episode on having needs and respecting others needs (also if they are clashing)
Thanks brother ❤️
Thank you, brother! We really appreciate these videos.
Thank you for this video! I really needed this and thank you for suggesting a routine/process to deal we the things we can control, I had never really thought about that
Awesome video Hampton! And I got the Beautiful Day shirt today, it’s very nice! Thanks man, hope more people get to see your videos
Thank you for the lovely insight my friend ❤️ I happened to be one of the people that brushes his teeth after every meal.
Reason is, I have a broken tooth and I'm terrified of dentists so I haven't gotten to get it fixed yet.
So brushing after I eat anything helps with its hygiene.
Thanks for sharing this. All of your videos help reduce stress. Even your exercise videos. You have such a soothing voice, plus the nature around you. Thanks for all you do Hampton!
As always, thank you for your thoughts Hampton. I appreciate your content very much!
I love this CHANNELLLLL!!!!!!!. Your content is very peaceful and extremely useful. I am glad that i found this channel at the right time.
Thanks for sharing and reemphasizing these tips and reminders. Also, thanks for your dedication to your channel and for the continued desire to help others. You're a blessing. 🙏😎🙏
Hi Hampton ☺️ I just wanted to let you know how thankful I am that you impart and spend time to create this community with us. Unexplainably you help me calm myself. I hope you have a great day ☕️
Bravo! Very good video. I appreciate you for the work you do and the way you do it. Very relaxed and laid back but straight forward. You made very good points and gave very good advice. Sorry to hear about your Mother. You have my condolences. Keep up the good work and just keep being you and you'll go very far! God bless you!
Thank you Hampton! ❤️
Hey hampton=)
Just wanna let you know I have been doing exercise 3 months consistently using the routine that you shared.
Your videos explaining, breaking downs things, the helpful tips, etc have been awesome.
Thank you so much for all the content.
I feel stronger, healthier, happier
You're such a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing! ✝️ 💟
I really like these styles of videos. It helps me calm down hearing these talks when I do yoga.
Feeling so much better and inspired after watching this, thank you.
being kind to one self can be very tough at times. dealing with setbacks is sometimes troublesome and the fear of spiraling is an additional problem. i really appreciate eveything you do. could you do a video on overthinking / spiraling? its cool if you won't - youre already doing way more than anyone could ever ask of you.
I’m so happy I found this channel
Hampton. Your videos are so wonderful, i feel the love you want to share emanating from all your videos!! Thank you for being you and sharing your soul with us all. This is an amazing message, what I heard was: 'be your own best friend!' Dont be so hard on yourself, and be kinder in mind and heart. I find talking to myself helps a lot, I tell myself things like: 'its okay if I fail, I can accept that I might fail/it won't turn out how I expect or want it to'. When it comes to inner work, I've always found just a simple acceptance of the emotions you feel is enough to release the stress/trauma associated. So accepting that you might fail, and knowing that its okay if we do, is always something I've found of benefit. I also find the stoic belief of control runs true here - 'you're only in control of yourself, your mind and reactions'. Knowing that gives me, personally, more drive to better myself and I find I am a lot happier now with life now I'm focusing on myself and how I am, rather than the external forces that I've no ability to control (the place I live, the people I interact with and how they are etc..) I believe that the world is a much nicer place when you can find peace in your own mind and heart, within, so that outside of you can reflect back to you the tranquility you feel. (Have you heard of the inside-out perspective? Its very interesting!)
Thanks again Hampton, your videos always keep me on the right track. Blessings to you and your family ❤
As a side note - if you struggle to accept that you might fail, see if you can accept that your resistant to accepting that you might fail. And if you still struggle, see if you can accept the resistance, to the resistance of accepting that you may fail. Keep going that way until you find you can accept it. You'll be surprised how relieved you feel once you've worked through all those layers, simply by accepting yourself for feeling as you do 🙏🏻
Thank you! Your videos are so stress relieving, very wise words man.
You are a beautiful human and I appreciate you and your message my friend ❣️🙏✌️💛💪🥰
I have hpv, high grade CIN 3... meaning the abnormal cells on my cervix are highly likely to turn into cancerous cells. I need to learn how to de stress... also if you are a woman reading this please get your Pap smears done atleast once a year. Thank you for the words of wisdom.
That does sound very stressful. I hope you have found people to support you. Good luck, I wish you all the best.
Dude ur video just keeps me getting stronger and stronger.
Hampton u are really a bless dude, I am trying to get through colledge, and sometimes I get the idea that I am not suited for this, it should be different and I cant control it, but as u said if we keep trying we might be able to realise that we are indeed able to control some stuff, so yeah thanks a lot for the advice and I really enjoy ur videos.
Love your videos, Hampton. Although I don't feel stress nowadays, I really struggled with it and this really puts things into perspective
I was just writing an essay about this and in glad we agree 😂
I would love if you had a podcast! I’d love to hear your thoughts while I do something mindless and at the moment you’re the only fitness personality I trust :) Just a thought! Thanks for the content friend! ❤
literally one of the best things that happened to me ...... found your channel!
Hey Hampton,
I stumbled into your channel yesterday.
As a dentist, i recommend just swishing with water after your meal to clear out sugars.
As for brushing, as long as its before bed (and after your last meal).
Thanks for the video Hampton! I found it really relatable and applicable!
This video helped me realise there are things I tell myself are out of my control so that I can be comfortably complacent with my indulgent, leisurely lifestyle, when in reality that's untrue, and I should indeed work towards those goals. I'm gonna do that now!
I only found your channel 2 weeks ago but I've since watched so many Coffee with Hampton videos because you really inspire me to improve myself, and always give helpful, realistic advice on how to do so! Keep up the good work! God bless!
(side note: it makes me so happy that you're Christian haha. That serenity prayer was a really good reminder for me :)) )
Thank you so much for the great advice! I have all the tools, now I need to practice it.
I'm getting hooked. Have to make a comeback from sedentary ways and fight fear of injury at 71, and wanting quick muscle buildy like I could do in my forties. Very inspired sometimes to injury but every PT routine! was a learning experience, especially sciatica. Benched me the longest, but makes balancing 12 year old me with 71 yr old.
Very good video bro! Been struggling with stress and anxiety lately and I think your tips and advices will definitely help me. Thanks from Brazil!
you are amazing ... thank you brother.
Excellent advice. Just what I needed to hear this morning. Thank you.
You really feel like a brother. I feel at peace with you talking.
I dont have anyone really that I consider a close friend but these videos always make me feel like I do so thank you for these
thank you very much for this and your other videos, you are a wholesome person!
I really needed one those videos from you, and now you uploded it. What a timing.
Thanks for tjis video. It was very insightful and helpful. My "take away" is tp remember that I DO have control of many things and that I shouldn't be too quick abandon them or give up.
You are a unique and beautiful soul. Have a beautiful day tomorrow and same to all of You in this community!
This video was so good at reducing my stress I instantly fell asleep watching it. Now I have to watch it again to actually hear your tips for stress reduction.
Hampton Videos always reduce my stress.
Glad i found this community.
