I feel mentally drained and down even on days where I am doing nothing. Mostly because I spend it on my phone and feel bad about not being productive. Can anyone relate?
yes :')
Absolutely
Watch Andrew Kirby's video on dopamine detox.
Indeed I can
@@rowena ❤️
Literally love how every video seems to come at the perfect time of my life. Even me finding this channel came right when I needed it! ☀️
Much love!
sending you so so much love Gracelynn! 💕
🥰💕🤗
Same here!
Sometimes I’ll feel guilty for not being productive, while not being productive and laying at my desk for three hours straight.
It's really easy to underestimate how much rest we really need. Please don't feel guilty.
I’m on my second day working 12 hours, missing workouts and 10th day in a row or work... Rowena, it’s like you read my mind.
gotchu hehe we got this Nicole!! 💕
with finals coming up, i feel like rowena always knows exactly what videos we need.
It’s cute how Rowena changes her voice when she calls her bf 😩🥰
hahaa I notice it too! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 was about to comment
ikr! it's adorable!
Literally so adorable 🥰 I do the same thing though lol
@@AysiaSBeauty me too actually loool
I thought all women do that xD
Literally feels like I'm drowning in school work (every other week is live a new wave of midterms wtf), job applications, maintaining my college job that I never have time to appreciate the small moments with my friends, professors, and family. Definitely needed this video as I attempt to get through each week before graduation!🥲
You can do it!
You’re doing so well and balancing so much! That sounds like a huge amount to manage. Wishing you all the best for this final push especially. I really hope you can find moments to rest deeply afterwards x Take care!
I feel the same 😣 I'm soo tired, but we can get through this
thank you for existing rowena thats all im gonna say
thank you for existing just the same 😭
If you happen to scroll down your comments section, I hope you put on a smile while reading this. Because you saved so many smiles (and breath) in between my adulting journey. Thanks so much, Ro! Keep going
Watching this as I do my night routine. I really needed this video, because I’ve been feeling unmotivated and lethargic lately.
i’m so stressed out with school :(( this video is perfect for me rn
I need this 😫 I’m gonna be graduating college and high school and I’m in the middle finals so a bunch of homework, presentations, 😭 I’m tryna tackle all of this while making sure to take care of my mental health and self...thank you! ❤️🤧
Feel ❤
So comforting to find someone as sensitive to caffeine as me! I thought I was just a freak of nature 😖
Right?! I can't even tolerate decaf tea 😢
SAME FAM! I am shaking after one cup of tea and I can’t sleep all night if I have caffeine after 2 pm...
Same here. I like coffee as a taste/flavor, but I don't like its effects on my body when it gets excessive
I’m the exact opposite💀. I could have like three cups at 11pm and fall asleep. I wish that I could get energy from a drink😭😭
I was out of school for more than a month because of covid and I've been feeling so overwhelmed by the amount of work I have to catch up to. It feels like a huge wave is looming over me but my feet are stuck on the shore. Thank you for this gentle reminder, Rowena
Today's morning has been especially difficult, nothing serious, just getting out of bed, making bed, washing up, going out for cycling, starting with Yoga, but I still made it and given that all of that is for my own health and for the sake of my bare minimum self-care, this video came at such a good point of time! Hope this reaches you Ro, you are such a motivation for me and so many others! Saranghae *insert hand heart* I'll
1. Figure out your non-negotiables.
2. Do what you need to help you feel your best.
3. Be gentle with yourself.
Been feeling productivity guilt lately. This came at a perfect time!
her relationship with her bf is the cutest I wanna see more of that
this came at such a perfect time!
True.
I am leaving my full time job to do a stay at home job tomorrow. I'm scared and nervous with alot of pressure but I just couldn't do what I had been doing for the last 4 years. I'm burnt out and depressed. Haven't been productive over a year and shit keep happening involving insurance claims, lawyers, and police reports, and etc. I want to have healthy routines but there is always a voice in the back of my mind telling me nothing matters, it won't make a difference. No friends, boyfriend, stable income, mental wellness, and the pressure that I'm gonna be 30 hit me everyday. Having to support my fresh out of college sister and two cats, eating away my savings. Sometimes it felt like it is the end of the line for me. I'm getting more and more scared to leave the house because I was afraid of getting hurt or offended, making mistakes and fucking up. I'm glad I found your channel because with a new fresh start, I am hoping your channel will be my spiritual guide until I can figure things out on my own. I love your content but I just need to start applying them. Thank you.
Girl I feel you. I'm losing my mind. I'm so sorry you're dealing with all of that.
hello rowena, just want to thank you for helping me so much during the time where i was suffering from anxiety and self loathing, you inspired me to love myself more and accept the reality, and now you are helping me during a very overwhelming time of my life (its my 4th day of a new job). thank you for being the big sister i never had
Congratulations on your new job! 🥰 🎉
@@CassieWinter idk why i got teary eyed reading this wth lmao thank you 💕
@@yoongis.tangerine You're welcome! Hugs! 🥰
oh dang, I really needed this video today Ro, and you didn't even knew it hahaha. Thank you so much for sharing this! Sending you the sweetest and warmest light and vibes for you 🌻🌟 greetings from Mexico City!
literally PERFECT timing. Just finished an 11 page report and 4 tests...needed this :)
Wow that's amazing! High five!
Oh my goddess. I relate to so much in this video!! Thank you so much for it!!! I would love if you could make a video on how to manage multiple works? Like college, work, freelances, having a yt channel etc? How to change from one to another and keep productive etc. I love your channel please never quit this ❤❤❤❤
1. Girl you always know when your potatoes need ya. Your intuition is on point 💚
2. Your skin is incredible, glowy and gorg 😃
3. I so relate to the notion of a drawn out to-do list. Mine is the length of a children's book 🙃 😭
4. "So bing bing" made me awwwwww, I absolutely love and adore how supportive and caring your bf is toward you💕💕
5. Thank you thank you thank you 😙 I've been a stubby sweet potato friend for years now and it's been awesome watching you and myself grow thru this beautiful thing called life!
i always come to rowena's channel when i feel lost or burnt out and at this point i think i can say it's my comfort channel for lifestyle if that makes sense. she always inspires me a lot and i love how she's always real with her advice. she shows how she's also slowly growing with the tips she shares but it's also realistic in a way that we don't get better or results overnight. she reminds me it's a always a continuous process, and that we should take our time (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤ i'm really grateful for your work and i'm glad u exist to help lots of potatoes ♥️🥰❣️💗💘💓💕💖💝💛💞💚💙💟
You have the greatest timibg ever. From this week on i going be pushing myself to the limit. Needed this
Love waking up to this beautiful video! The book “make time” has helped me so much changing my every day life and creating more space and time for the things that matter to me
A possible solution to the inevitable piles of skin care of different categories: you could have an "inbox" shelf with 3 (or however many for "try" "sponsor" "give to friend") acrylic bins so they always have a place then you can have a little shop in your bins for a treat :D
I want to do creative work but I must do my law class assignments. I finish those just fine, but I feel so drained afterwards. Depression does not help either.
What kind of creative work do you do?
@@CassieWinter Music and fiction writing.
@@BeethovenIsGrumpyCat Yay a fellow writer! I've had to scale down to only 15 minutes of writing a day since I've been so busy, but I see that work adding up and it's really fulfilling. 😊
This came at such a perfect time
Love this idea! Wishing you the best x
Your voice is so soothing. It's actually helping to calm my stressed-out nerves at the moment!
I've been burn out and mentally exhausted in the past week and I'm trying to look for ways/habits to pick myself up and be productive and healthy again. Thank you for your videos!!
do you have any videos or have you considered making like a recipe series of sorts? all the foods you make look incredibly delicious and i'd love to try them out myself! :D
Man, I literally finished work just now, its like 10pm and I was thinking how overwhelmed and tired I always feel from it. Then I get a lovely notification that you uploaded this video.
Thanks Ro. I needed this.
This was posted at the exact right time..
The way Rowena and James speak cutely to each other is so adorable
3 weeks ago.. i feel so overwhelmed.. this will help me.. to the next overwhelming weeks
Needed a few more of your videos after that premiere. Thank you for being amazing and creating the content that you do. I've watched your videos over the years and they have always helped me especially struggling with a low moments in my life. Thank you thank you thank you. I cannot wait to meet more people like you in my life. You understand exactly how to make life a little easier for those of us hitting that wall in our journey. Love you and everything you do.
thank you rowena 🥺 i needed this as i feel overwhelmed every time i wake up. i realize i need to tweak my systems for self-care xx
Anyone that is reading this YOU are amazing and wonderful. Take breaks and enjoy the process.
You are such a peaceful and calmimg person. Watching your videos always relaxes me. Thank you for that❤
i guess it's true that the way you talk is different with people you love
I really like the way you divide habits into those three buckets. 😊
NEEDED this during such a busy week. Love you, Ro!
the timing... 🙏 i just adopted a puppy and I AM SO BUSY RIGHT NOW!! being a dog mom is tough 😂
I can feel
Oh my gosh you posted this at the perfect time!
This video came at the perfect time! Sometimes when I have too much to do I get so overwhelmed and my brain becomes mush.
your videos always come at the right time for me! I've been struggling a lot lately and I can feel myself burning out. Zoom university has been so stressful and as a voice major, I am having a really difficult time learning over zoom and doing all my lessons and coaching online. I'm hopeful that we will start to open up next semester!
Just woke up. Never clicked so fast! Make my day🤍🤍🤍
Starting last month, doing thesis and full-time internship at the same time really makes me burnt out ;-;. this video is so so timely and thank you very much for this!
How did you know I'm busy af and really need this video 😍😍 thank youu
After a long time I see her new video....I missed your video soo much😍😌
Aww🥺❤
I was literally crying jn and so this came at the right time.. 🙂 thanks Ro x 🥺
sending you the biggest virtual bear hug ❤️ hope crying it out helped you felt much lighter 😌
Can’t believe I’ve catches one of your videos this early! I feel accomplished ☺️ I want to thank you for making this kind of videos, they truly help me not feel so bad about myself, and on top of that, they give me new ideas I can integrate in my daily life! 💜
Adorable call with boyfriend at the end! Makes me think of my boo all supportive and cute!
This came at a much needed moment. Had a meeting with someone that put into perspective that it's crucial to know what our needs are and what rituals we can put in place to support ourselves. Gonna be reflecting and taking some action on that for sure. Take care everybody.
just wna pop in and say thank u rowena! u have been a big inspiration for me to get my ass moving, on days where i feel so unmotivated. i admire your dedication to keep creating content for all of us. i always look forward to your vids. thank u so much rowena!! :')
My mom actually taught me when I was really young that it's most important to wear sunscreen on cloudy or rainy days because the sun reflects of the water in the clouds.
OMG I needed this!! Thanks so much Rowena for all your wisdom!
Same
ahh I'm watching this at 7:32 am, I'm going to feel so productive after this! thank you so much
rowena's videos are so calming
Thank you for that "little nudge of inspiration" ❤️
This is how it looks like..❤❤❤

Your videos never fail to put a big smile on my face
Saw this video first thing in the morning. Didn’t even know that it’s exactly what I needed
Aww
yes, I need this ro!!! I spent whole night crying I'm trying my best to get back on track. I hope you are doing well too Ro, Love you
the pitch of rowena's voice when she was talking to james...so cute 🥺
this is coming at the exact right time for me, thank you 💛
Ro.. I'm working 18 hrs a day... Perfect time for video.. lots of love..😃
This came at a perfect time for me, coming off of a 13+ hour music video shoot. How did you know I needed this haha? You rock! 💖
Omg I am also sensitive to caffeine and didn't meet anyone like that until you mentioned it!
really needed this, thank you rowena 💓
You're voice is soo soothing 💖
i always look forward to watching ur videos💗💗
My dog took her last breath in my ear on the 2nd of April this year after shock and a dangerous blood loss situation, I want to be my strongest for her because of how hard she fought but get these times where when I want to do my work, I just lose all interest in it and everything else. She really did her best to survive and I really did all I could to assist her, what do I do? I sometimes want to cry but don't want to be sad about it because it was the best option with her suffering, I just miss her, how do I uplift my spirits more?
My apologies if this seems scrambled, but this is all I could muster.
I lost my dogs too and they are family to me. Do you believe in spirits ? I do, and I felt. You dont have to pretend like you are not sad or anything. Let your emotions out. Wherever you can feel the most connection with her, talk to her aloud. Tell her you miss her, love her. And pray her to be happy in the heaven. If you love her that much I feel like she like you to be happy too.
@@N-ud7yf You're a Good person. Thank you. And yes, I believe in spirits, but I miss giving her hugs to start my days and hearing her scream at the vacuum for long amounts of time, but those shall remain memories that I will always cherish.
The Amirisphere Zone Thank you..and sorry for my English.
My deepest condolences. I can’t imagine what you are going through.
She must have been happy to be around someone like you, someone full of love.
I can't imagine what you are going through but believe it, it's good for the doggo to go other than suffering a lot more here right? What happens, happens for the best. It's gonna be hard without it buddy but you got this okay?
oh my gawk this was just on time! i was just searching vids on feeling overwhelmed bc i was on a verge on another breakdown again i think lol thank u :3
I love your videos. You feel like an elder sister to me which I never really had in my life 😂😅
Same
Your videos always come at the perfect time ❤️
Rowe thank you for the ETSY shop links

Soooo interested in traditiona chinese medicine, whenever you talk about it I just thinks it makes so much sense!! A medicine style focused on the human body and rythms and not on pills!! Would love to know a little bit more about it :)
Omg I love the table in your apartment! Does anyone know where it’s from ?
Where did you get your rug from? I liked the lavender one :)
