In this video I share 6 everyday healthy habits that I practice.
The course I took about the lymphatic system is in Swedish by Karin Björkegren Jones. She has a highlight on her Instagram / karinbjorkegrenjones "Lymfskola" that might be useful.
I get so many questions about the things in my apartment and what I like and wear so I've collected links for many of them below.

Your videos always come when I need them most. It’s like a comforting hug. You’re not just taking care of yourself, you’re taking care of us, too, and that’s so lovely and appreciated! 🥰
Aww, that's so nice, thank you!
EXACTLY.
Ditto to that as well!
What a lovely comment 😊
Yeah, exactly I love every single vlog you do, there is allways something that hits the right spot 🌹thank you and stay healthy
1. Walk
2. Lymph exercises
3. Self care (f.e. body massages)
4. Posture
5. Take breaks
I love that you talk about the importance of comfortable clothes for our health! I'm often seen as lazy as I come home and remove anything that's uncomfortable and usually opt for comfortable lounge wear. I've done this my whole life. As I've had kids and got older I feel the difference in digestion, inflammation and even pain when i am able to be comfortable in my clothing! This makes so much sense as blood and fluids need to move! Thank you Benita!
The days where I would wear tight pants are definitely over. Makes a huge difference for well-being when you loosen up what you’re wearing!
Benita and others who struggle with posture -- often it's less about pulling your shoulders back and more about getting your HEAD back and your eyes up. We tend to tip our heads forward and down all the time and the weight of your head is what's pulling your shoulders forward. Fix the head position and everything else falls in line so much more easily! Worth a try anyway :)
Thanks for the tip!
Merci pour ce bon conseil 👍🏻 !!!
You're very disciplined. You've created such a nice life for yourself; thanks for sharing it through your videos. It's quite inspirational.
Thank you so much!
I love that you don't let lack of a companion keep you from outings. I've learned to appreciate my own company especially in places like museums where I can linger over exhibits as long as I want to, and in cafes where I can sit meditatively while observing all the bustle in my surroundings. Another pleasurable video. Thank you.
Yes, exactly! Time to ourselves is so important too!
Speaking for myself, I feel it is for the betterment of my health if you upload a new video every week. 😊
Haha, nice try there!🤣
me too! lol
But Seriously I appreciate that you knew your limits and what was best for you and you decided to do videos every other week. Good for you! Although I do have a love hate relationship with Tuesdays. I love them on the weeks that you release a video and the rest of the time I tolerate them
I do miss the galleries and museums, but nature and beaches are what I need in this phase of my life.
I hope your Mother is feeling better soon.
Yes to different phases in life!
Such good reminders for all the small things we can make everyday habits. Consistency is key. I needed to hear this! Thank you Benita.
Thank you so much for watching!
So good! I watched while taking a one hour "WFH stand up & do stuff" lunch break because it's too hot here to walk outside. The best part were all the lymphatic exercises, which I will continue to do during breaks because now I feel so much better! Thank you (& if you ever do a full lymphatic exercises video, I'll be there ;)
Probably one of your best videos! Truly spoke to me. Found myself getting up and doing stretches as you were doing them. So appreciated this and so timely!
So glad you found it useful!
Ms. Benita thank you for sharing your time in daily life. Yes it’s good to remind us to walk, to do exercise, and to eat a balance meal. The lymphatic system is not like our heart that pumps out but rather it’s drainage . Our bones, spleen, tonsils and tissues are parts of our structure so it’s important to take care since it help move our waste. Thank you Ms Benita🙏
Another wonderful video, filled with realistic tips. Thank you, Benita. Light and love to you, your mom, and the rest of your circle 🌈💕
Thank you so much!
As someone with health issues, I've found for me the simple movements have the greater impact. I was trying to do much at a time. I love who you multi-task, your massage and shower, drying off etc. And the timer to get up and move. SO important. Thanks for sharing!
I used to tend to over do exercises and hurt myself in the process so I totally get what you’re saying!
Thanks Benita,love your healthy routines. We need to be more mindful of our mental health and bodies, especially as we approach our 60’s xx.
That is so true!
Thank you Benita for sharing some of your daily/weekly routines. After a dreadful start to the year I am trying to regain my strength after a cardiac arrest. I used to walk between 6-8 miles 3 times a week but now I've taken to shorter walks daily, also your exercises, and stretches looked like something I could handle at the moment, and its always great to see some of the scenery when I watch your videos. So thanks again Benita, I'm going to be more mindful in the future about getting into some sort of routines that will help my well being.
That is truly a terrible start to the year! I'm glad you're recovering 💕
@@AnneliSchmidt Thank you Anneli ❤️
That's a horrible start! Wishing you the very best and hope the rest of the year turns out better! ❤️
@@BenitaLarsson thank you so much Benita.❤️
Good Luck for the rest of the year 👍.
Thank you for sharing this part of your routine. We all need the motivation to get back to our daily activities for mental and physical well being. Just what I needed right now.
I'm so glad you found it useful!
Exactly the place I’m in right now and the messages I need to hear!! Thank you for the community you have created, your channel is a valuable public service.
Excellent video Benita!💯
Thank you so much!
Lovely to see your video in my feed today!
So happy to be there!
Benitaaaaa ❤️ always posting at the perfect time
So happy to know you enjoy the videos!
Hello Benita! 🌼🌷🌼 I love walking ~ I don't do it enough, I really do need to start some sort of schedule (great for mental health). I am starting to do some stretching, currently doing it 3x week, feel great when I do it.😀 I have been 'dry brushing' on my body every night - this is a habit that I love to do, my wind down for the night before applying all my creams. Your white indoor sandals look very comfortable, I will check your shop links. 🥰 Thank you again for taking the time to share these healthy habits - enjoy your content so much and all the best to your mom. 💓💕💓
So happy you enjoy the videos!
Thank you.
Wonderful reminders especially taking care of the lymphatic system, so important! Thank you ❤️

Thank you, Benita! ☆
Thank you so much for watching!
Awesome video, perfect timing 😊 Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for posting. Very good suggestions
Totally agree with number 6! I’m a frequent flyer at the art galleries in my city. I find that being around art can be super calming, especially during the busy parts of the semester!
Happy Tuesday Benita!
I love being inspired by art!
Another Great video. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Just lovely, thank you Benita 😊... I've started practicing yoga, and I am changing my eating habits.....I walk to and back from work 5 days a week, weight lifting exercises nothing to heavy...helps to keep the bones healthy 😀 💪 . Those are my habits.
Those are great habits!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Your videos are fresh air, you are absolutely wonderful, what a beautiful energy you have.
I'm going to start adding stretches to my morning routine, thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you so much for watching!
A very aesthetically pleasing video. Your voice is soothing to listen to.
I loved this video! Like you, I'm perfectly happy to wander around by myself and I often prefer to do that. I'm trying to integrate new healthy habits one at a time and you are always an inspiration to me! I'm always so happy when you put a new video up, and I go back and watch older videos too. Sending love and greetings from Canada!🌄
So glad you enjoyed it!
As always, love your beautiful walks.
Thank you so much!
Great tips! I love your rocking desk chair. A few years ago I was having back issues and switched to a yoga ball and it has made a HUGE difference.
Thank you Benita , another truly relaxing watch ! You really do inspire me to make those little changes in life . How interesting, exercises to improve our Lymphatic system. I’ve been pretty anxious recently due to having tests regarding my health. You help me and others I’m sure more than you know . Investing in some comfy bras ASAP 😁! Sending love from Lancashire in the UK 🇬🇧
Thanks for showing us these simple exercises 👍🏼
Thanks so much for watching!
Many thanks for your content and beautiful contribution to this platform. Wishing you continued healing, health and happiness
You are an inspiration Dear Benita - keep loving and living well!
Much love to all from Carmel by the Sea xoxo 🧜♀️
Love this. Hope you’re feeling well. ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ty. Benita. Just watching your videos are a healthy habit. So serene.
Aww, thank you so much!
Thanks Benita, i m happy when you post a new vidéo 🤗
Thank you so much for watching them!
So pleased you are doing so well and doing things to maintain your good health. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you so much for this. Like so many have mentioned before me, your videos have a knack of being just what I need. You really are brilliant! 🌻 The exercises and therapy will be very useful, very soon, I have no doubt. Thank you.
Best wishes for your mom’s health (and yours!) and as always, hugs to Mini and Bonus.
Thank you for the well wishes and hugs!
Thanks Benita. I did some of the upper body exercises and felt the benefit immediately. It’s winter in my part of the world and I’m really feeling it.
So happy they helped!
siempre eres una inspiración para mi, gracias por compartir esos hábitos Benita, un abrazo desde España 💟
Thank you so much!
I just got back to Tai Chi and Qi Gong class. Your video gives such great tips to incorporate in our busy lives. TY!
That's great! Thanks for watching!
I’m new to your channel
My daughter actually told me about it and I haven’t stopped watching, lovely place you live, love your home and your cats,
Your music on your videos are so relaxing
Have a wonderful day🌷
What a beautifully narrated video for self care. Thank you for all the reminders to get up and move, not only our body but our mind needs food for thought as well.
Thank you so much!
Good habits, all of them 👏🏻👏🏻! Sometimes I also feel stiff when I sit for a long time ( with the shape of the chair printed in my body), so I try to stretch, walk around, etc. I walk everyday too and it is pure pleasure☺, but the Pc is the most unhealthy item in our lives, although we need it, so thank you again Benita for all your helpful tips and ideas🌼🥰
I’m excited to try some of these habits/routines especially since my upper body gets tense too. Thank you!
Hope they will help you!
I definitely need to add the cultural element to my life! Thanks for the reminder :)
It makes a huge difference in my life!
Watching your videos is a healthy habit, Benita. Thank you for sharing.
Aww, thank you so much!
Very inspiring video!👍Thank you for sharing!😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
This video is very helpful. Best wishes from Germany 🙋♀️
Thank you for the healthy tip reminders. I started stretching again more regularly and have noticed just how much more comfortable I feel. It's like giving myself a back adjustment. Glad you continue feeling well and that you are spending more time w/ your mother despite her ailing health. Wishing both of you well and I look forward to your next video (as usual.) 🌻
Thank you so much!
As always, Benita, I find you incredibly refreshing. Thank you for being real! Amy Fran Minnesota ❤️
Thank you so much!
Mental health is so importan..thank you for choosing such a good sponsor for your video🌼
Thank you so much!
Wunderbare entspannte Videos,ich sehe mir deine Videos sehr gerne an.Danach bin ich so ruhig.Danke Benita
Thank you for this video. I borrowed "The Book Of Lymph" from my local library to learn more about the lymphatic system. I always stretch in the morning. Now I can do more to improve my health.
thank you Benita this is great, i am in need of making some changes so this has really inspired me. I have got rid of my leggings that were so tight on my stomach i read that can make you very bloated and that made sense, the massage in the shower another great tip, all these changes are not huge but better daily habits even small ones make all the difference. I have also cut out sugar and lowering my salt intake too, and drinking a big glass of water first thing and taking my vitamins at the sme time is a win win.
Walking 30 mins per day as well. If you read the book tiny habits one of the things is nothing seems to change initially but 6 months down the road the changes are very clear. Once again thank you i love your video,s, hope your mum gets better hugs
Benita amo tus videos me relajan y son inspiración para llevar una vida sana y en armonía.
Thank you so much for watching!
Good morning from New York I’d like to thank you for your videos and the time you take to show us how our well-being is very important for us I struggle with being alone at my age right now it’s refreshing to know that you can get through it thank you for some of the lovely sites in Sweden I will never get there to see them it’s a lovely country
Thank you so much for watching my videos!
LOVE! those tuesdays 🥰 It has an amazing effect on me. Was feeling a bit off today. But seeing your AMAZING place, I MUST do some laundry ASAP 😂
Haha, thank you so much!
How lovely , simple but fab points to keep you happy and healthy 🙏🏻❤️❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this informative video on the lymphatic system exercises, I'm going to start doing them as well.I am on the computer with two monitors all day for work and the exercises for stretching etc looks very good.I have such stiffness and aches in my neck from it.The area where you walk is so pretty.I love your videos.😊💛
Hope they help like they’ve been useful to me!
Thank you for sharing. I may adopt a few practices. I have been a subscriber for a few years. I am from Kansas City Mo USA. I really enjoy your content.
Thanks for following along!
Sharing your video with a friend who had double mastectomy a few years back still struggles with lymphatic issues. Thank you for sharing! Have a great rest of your week.
The exercises have helped me a lot!
Such a good reminder to stay mobile and take good care of oneself.
Yes, movement is key!
Kada pogledam vas video, pomislim, divno je da postoji takva lakoca zivljenja i uzivanja u zivotu i svakodnevnim sitnicama. Srecno ❤️
That's so sweet, thank you!
I always look for your videos when I need a push. This video reminded me that I went off track.I also walk everyday but due to work schedule I stopped walking. You just reminded me to do the things that make you happy. Love your way of life.
I'm so happy if this video got you back on track!
All great tips and I’ll start adding the exercises to wake up my lymphatic system too. You look great! I love your black outfit you were wearing. Attractive and looks comfy. xx
Those lymph exercises have been so great!
Thank you for sharing your healthy rituals. I definitely start my day doing exactly those simple exercises to warm up my body and it makes a difference on my well being. As I admire your body you are my inspiration always look forward to your videos😀
Aww, that’s so sweet, thank you!
Ok this video is just full of good stuff - will be repeat watching. Definitely going to try to memorize the exercises - gotta take care of the lymph system.
So glad you found it useful!
Thank you again . I will try your suggestions . 🙏🏼💐❤️💙💛
Hope you’ll enjoy them!
Hi Benita, brilliant video, especially the stretching exercises, up at 6.30am UK time this morning just to incorporate these into my morning stretches/exercise - I have been skipping (no pun intended) my exercises for weeks now, but when I tuned into your channel yesterday and saw you stretching out and the reasons for doing so, you just give me the inspiration I needed to get started. Thank you, thank you, thank you 😊👍
15 million views - wow amazing 👏👏👏
I'm so happy you find the video useful!
Always to the point, always inspiring😺😺Thank you so much for the healthy reminder, I really appreciate it my dearest Benita🤍🌸🤍🌸
Thank you so much for watching again!
So interesting. Especially the lymphatic exercises as I had some nodes removed when having breast surgery for cancer. I will start doing those again for sure. 💓
The exercises are so helpful to me!
Loved it
Thank you so much!
Thank you🥰
Thank you so much for watching!
Was that a peak into your Mom's garden? Just how beautiful is that!! I enjoy your videos so much Benita, I could listen to you for hours
I shot that at a nearby allotment😊
Great video as always! So helpful! Lymph drainage really fascinating 👍 big thank you 🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
I will add to my exercise. My lymph system isn’t 100% but my muscle n nerve pain is better from cancer removal. You look wonderful!
Very good video, it's so important to be active! I walk 10000steps each day and cycling a lot in summer and run in the winter time! Fresh and balanced meals are also a good way to stay healthy! Thanks for your tips!
Thanks so much for watching!
Hola!!! Qué tal? Me ha encantado tu video. Es igual de genial que todos los demás. 😊 Voy a seguir tus consejos para despertar el sistema linfático. A partir de mañana lo pongo en práctica.
Gracias por todo. Deseando ver el próximo. 😘
So happy you enjoyed it!
Bonjour Benita,
Toujours de bons conseils de vie ! La santé mentale est importante aussi ! Mes parents vieillissent et ce n’est pas évident 🥴 … merci pour cet exemple inspirant !
Bonne fin de semaine !
🌸🌸🌸
Thank you for the tip of the lymphatic activation exercises. I will investigate that.
Yes, do! I'm sure there's information out there in English too since my course was in Swedish.
I do similar movements to help my painful arthritic joints and improve mobility and my posture. I’ve also instinctively been doing those massages in the shower and applying lotion for pain relief. It really helps.
It’s amazing how something so simple is so beneficial, isn’t it?
Woke up today thinking I need to get rid of my tight black jeans that are actually not my size. Your video is the sign to do it immediately:) thanks a lot for your lovely content ♥️
That is such a beautiful museum - I went there when I visited Stockholm.
It’s so amazing, isn’t it!
I offer massage therapy, and encourage my clients to embrace healthy habits like these!
I've long done Tai Chi and dance - and recently began doing the Japanese Morning exercises which offer a great wake up to the lymphatic system! In just 6 minutes, I fell refreshed and ready for the day! I will receive my monthly massage exchange session tomorrow, followed by a steam sauna - I have included massage in my self care for nearly 40 years! (And my mother rubbed my back and feet as I was growing up!)
I love your inspiring channel ❤
Thank you for normalizing self care - inspiring and much appreciated
Glad you found it useful!
Hello Benita. Hope you are doing well. I'm glad you found ways to incorporate a new health routine into your already established one. Lymphatic circulation is rarely talked about, but really important.
I wish we had more interesting exhibit/activity for a more reasonable price here (everything is 30$+)
I see your hair is getting much longer now.
Just lovely ☺️, please share the lymphatic system’s exercises, thanks
I took a course and don’t feel like I can share all the teacher’s knowledge here but I added the link to her Instagram where she has a highlight “Lymfskola”. You’ll find it in the description box!
I love habits. They make my mind very peaceful although I don't mind some spontaneous actions. I recently moved in with my husband and I am still working on those old habits and creating some new so I can feel better.
Thank you so much for watching!
I really enjoyed this video !! My husband and myself take daily walks around our local park. It feels good to get out and walk and exercise ! Thanks for the tips you shared. We both have lost weight in the process of exercising and eating better . I've lost 50 lbs and my husband has lost 40 lbs !!
Wow! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Walking is such a great way to stay fit!
