- IG: / rowenatsai | In our culture of faster, better, and more, what could the one, ultimate act of self-care be? 🐢 Mastering this one thing can also help us with many life things like not comparing ourselves to others, learning to enjoy things we previously really disliked, and changing our mind about what we deem as "worthy" and "unworthy" of our time.

“Is self care really self care if it’s just another thing to check off your to do list?” Oof I needed to hear this!! I am guilty of thinking of self care as just another task. I love your thought process and perspective on the benefits of slowing down. Definitely taking notes ❤
grateful for you Khalilah 🥹🫶
This exactly! Thank you for pointing that out.
Hi Rowena, I hope you’re well.
In my opinion, it is very naughty of me to like your video without watching it but I trust your content.
Thank you for adding so much value to my life. May you continue to grow and influence people’s lives positively! 🥳🤗
🤣😭🫶 very naughty indeed hehe thanks Kutlwano!!
Oh wow hey ! 25 year old here and super loving this video . Came on suggestions . I am into quiet vlogging and podcasts and this is the perfect mix and balance . Your voice over fits so nicely! I’m also feeling like 20s isn’t as awesome as society feeds us . I think I am finally excited to get closer to 30 where I will feel more and more confident and true to self . This video is a great reminder 😊 thanks
welcome to the fam leigh 🤭🫶 thank you so much!! our 20s can be amazing since we technically have less responsibilities and are more free to explore, but that also comes with the added baggage of insecurities and instability 😅 here's to making the best of what we have, where we are!
30 is going to be the best decade yet! 25-30 is the time to build up the woman that you are meant to be ☺💞
I love the calm vibe of your videos, Rowena. This video made me think about hyper fixation on ourselves - ie. Working so hard to get things "right" or perfect. We can put a lot of pressure on ourselves!
In a way, does that mean we are focusing too much on ourselves but telling ourselves a story that it's because we're trying to keep up with others?
I wonder if we focused less on ourselves, allowing us to go with our gut instincts and intuition, would we be more aligned with growth and our own perspective of "achievement"?
Giving me something to think about :)
I really needed to watch this video! Thank you for reminding us that even celebrities can compare themselves and have insecurities too! I've been feeling so insecure but I'm trying to be grateful and love myself more! Your video made my day! Please Rowena, keep doing you! You are one of a kind! 🥺🤍
the part about learning to enjoy makeup really struck home for me…thank you for talking about this and helping us feel better about small changes like that!
✨Just the opinion of someone who has watched your videos for a while…I would binge your videos cause I loved the content and the way you filmed them - I loved your advice. Then I started to think “she gives a lot of productive advice back to back - why arnt the things she is trying working by now?” Then you put out this video! And it feels SO real. Like it’s me seeing you change and mature and grow and your thought processes change along the way. I’m 100% here for it! I’m 29, 30 next year and I feel like I am developing alongside you. Like I said…just my unsolicited opinion…but I wanted to express that I really enjoy all your videos but this one is the best thus far 💕
I love this first shot! Prioritizing what truly matters really does require us to slow down to further evaluate our intention! I’m a content creator and artist who’s always working around the clock. Along with other life obligations, it can be crazy difficult to prioritize time for myself to simply exist and be still. I’ve always said being ambitious can be taxing and I’ve learned that to be so true! My mental health has been strained from taking on so many things for so many people. So while I focus on growing my YT and my artist portfolio, I’ve had to learn to give myself a hug, love, and time to ensure I’m doing great because if I’m not, anything I do and everyone I look to inspire will get a shell of my best self. We all deserve to be our best selves at all time, so please take care of yourselves friends cause you deserve that love! Thanks Rowena for the amazing content and for creating such a vulnerable and loving community 💙
sending you love & the biggest hug Maha!! 💗 you have such beautiful messages to share with the world, please never stop creating :')
@@rowena that means so much coming from you! Thank you😭
I watch your videos as I get ready for my day, it's like a meditation for me. Love all the content that you put out there, Rowena! I have been a follower for 4+ years now. You've helped me start my journey to becoming a better version of myself. Grateful for your channel! Lots of love
Rowena’s words are so calming and reassuring. ❤ she reminds me to slow down and everything will be alright 🫶✨
Rowena, your videos are always a breath of fresh air during my week🤍Grateful for you and your work!
hey rowena i haven't commented on your videos before but i've watched so many of them, and i didn't find you from the viral habits vs. systems video. i've been watching/listening to your videos a many mornings when i wake up to sooth me and have a calm start to the day. your videos are so relaxing, heartwarming, and have so much truth and love to them. your company is so easy, and i truly love your calming presence and mindset on certain things in life. screw the views -- you are impacting everyone who's watching, including me, and i love your content :))
this was such a necessary video for me! i definitely feel like i'm rushing everywhere and that's detrimental for my mental health but i also can't seem to stop. also i'm so excited to hear you talk about tiktok! i feel like i've been waiting for that video for ages now haha see you next week!
here's to us slowing down twogether 🐢👯♀️🪩🫶 omg yes I've been talking about this tiktok video for a literal year - I'M SO SCARED BUT SO EXCITED!!!!
Oh my god Rowena thank you for your videos, i love them and they speak to me on so many levels 🫶🫶
appreciate you 🥹🧁🫶
I’ve been using seen for several months now and absolutely love it! I also use the curl creme and it’s all so good!!
I love this video so much, so eye-opening to the beauty of simplicity💜
The part about being ok with missing work opportunities in favor of mental health was great! ❤ Need to take a hard look at my priorities more often. Work isn’t everything!
Oh Rowena, I find myself rushing even when I do yoga to unwind in the evening... I'm a lost cause - the constant grind mentality has shaped my mind to the core 😢
Right now, everything in my life seems to go fast-paced and this is just the perfect video reminder for me to slow down and take one step at a time. Life is not a race. Thanks rowena! This is like a pat on the back that I very much needed :(
Glad to see you have stuff that makes you happy.
So looking forward to that next episode!!
You really make me feel like I can handle and manage my life smoothly.... You always inspire me. And you helped me to open up my mind soooo much. Thanks rooooowwwww❤❤❤❤❤ ILOVEYOU ❤
Sometimes we really do need some self care, and do what feels right to us! Kudos on realizing and taking the steps to self care❣️
@Rowena Tsai I know this is not usually your content type, but would LOVE to see you do a closet tour or talk about how you style your outfits 😍 Because I love it!!!
Love this!!!!!!!
Just what I needed 🫶🏾
🤭🐢💕
Defo taking care of ourselves is important 😊
Loved it
Oh, the close up: you have got freckles! I like freckles. :)
Thank you, for taking the fear of getting older a little bit from my shoulders. Your videos are really soothing.
growing up is fun hehe it helps you appreciate things you didn't when you were younger like me with my freckles 🤭
So important!
i really enjoyed your video and bits of wisdom. this video was very digestible for me. thank you!
Oh I am SO excited for the tiktok video
That's so true ❤
Thank you so much for this video. I have taken a major step back in my life to slow down and allow myself to heal properly and move forward with more courage. I needed this video very much.
sending you love & the biggest virtual hug Bridget! 🫶
i needed this, learnin to slow down :p
Love the hair🪷Gratitude.

Your handwriting is pretty lovely 🥰
Hello, Rowena, I am a fan. My mentor shared your channel to me in 2019, since then you have been my favourite motivational speaker till now. I really enjoy your videos. Here, I am one of your sweet potatoes 💜.
Hi, I discovered your channel a few years ago and if I can be honest, I couldn't fully engage in it. I think I was so attached to my past and certain view of myself, I was scared of letting go of it. To safe myself from hard to swallow truths, I told myself your content is not really for me.
However, time passed, I changed, had some mental breakdowns that in a way helped me tear down walls I built to protect my ego. Recently, I rediscovered your channel, thanks to Leah's Fieldnotes.
You are probably the only CZcamsr who makes me stop a video because some door in my head got open and I need to write it down and start discovering what is waiting for me there. I am now trying to catch up with your videos and I am fighting the disappointment in myself that I didn't appreciate your work years ago.
Thank you so much for the way you create your content. You menage to combine striving for your best self with acceptance of ones imperfections and weak moments. So many CZcamsrs make me feel awful about how not productive I am at my worst days, but thanks to you, I am learning that this shame is not helpful in any way. That I can't speed up some processes, that I need to take my time and not treat self-development as an item on "to do list". Thank you for that.
Girl, this video is what I needed, I literally got tears in my eyes 🥹 thank you ❤
m'aww sending you the warmest cuddle hug tania!! 🥹🫶
oh my,,, I did to. I almost cried at the end... I needed it!
. . . I'm looking forward to next weeks video!
I honestly think most of us 'first' worlders are indulgent and out of touch with the many, far less fortunate people out there. People are waking up _starving_ . Let's be grateful for what we do have as it's probably a lot more than what many people have.
I love you❤❤❤❤
I just saw a 4 years old video of yours before seeing this one and i realised that you're still exactly same as you were 4 years ago and you became more beautiful🤭.. enjoy your time sweet potato 🍠 🤭❤
Where do you get some of your clothes a few of them look so comfy to lounge in!! Been looking for cute lounge wear to wear around the apartment thats also nice looking. ❤
A bug flew into my face at the same moment you said yoink at the end of the video hahaha
invested in knowing how your camera ended up with that first 5 sec shot haha
🤣🤣 it’s a much smaller camera, even smaller than a gopro, that I stuck on the wall!
@@rowena aaa this video was so beautifully made
Hello Rowena, totally unrelated to this video but I wanted to thank you for "Spirited Away", you spoke about it in a video and I went ahead to watch it and I loved it so much...please can you recommend other movies or animes lol
❤
Can you please do a review on the Medicube device or just devices in general, what works, etc
SLOW DOWN => BEING PRESENT
At the end of your video, "why do we care so much about looking effortlessly good?" is such an important question!
I've been learning more about the myth of effortlessness in USA specifically, and it's got roots in slavery and ⚪ supremacy. (I'm no expert here, this info comes from women much smarter than me.) I had no idea but it seems so obvious! Who *gets* to be effortless? We all know these things don't just happen. The women who made it look effortless *had someone else undertaking that effort*.
So one small way to push back is to acknowledge the effort it takes, and to not be afraid of letting others see the effort.
Does SEEN ship to Australia? I've been looking for a fragrance-free heat protectant for so long
Where is your table from?❤
Yes 👏🏼Girl. I wholeheartedly relate to the tomboy mentality in regard to make up 😂 I held myself back from putting on make up, even as little as wearing lip stick throughout my teenage years because I always thought that I wasn’t “girly” enough, I wasn’t as “feminine” as other girls and “Dresses? Yuck! It would look weird on me 🤡”
Now that I’ve grown older, I realized that no one was gonna put that eyeliner on me, no one was gonna help me curl my lashes and no one was gonna tell me whether I look a certain way or not, with or without make up. So I might as well just do it. Heck, I still feel like I’m years behind other girls in terms of beauty experience but it’s happening! 😤
RowenMY
13:40 slow down!!
Am I the only one who thinks she looks like Suga from BTS? Love these videos BTW 🩷
Dang that apartment in NYC has gotta be expensive
Okay more formula to buy and skin product 😅
I've always felt embarrassed to say that I dislike showering/washing hair and find it sooo draining!! Never saw it as a relaxing activity but as another unavoidable check-box on the to-do lists...😅 Thankfully, I see I'm not alone🫣
hate shower and washing hair too. i think it's because we are too stressed out that we need continuous stimulation to make us feel safe but it can only result in getting us more stressed out.
Slowing down may be hard in this fast paced world, but making time for yourself is always one of the best decisions to make.
Always grateful for your vids row 🫶 Watching you always feels like you are the older sister that I didn't have haha I honestly appreciate your hugs every end of the video 🤭
Anyways, its my 25th birthday on the 28th. Can I get a short bday greeting from my sister? 🥰
