This is not a duo I would've ever imagined but I love it! Always glad to see non-sarcastic Grace :)
Aww! What a sweet, mindful side of Grace.
My best friend and I are introverts, so we live to spend time together like reading and stuff. She actually just texted me to come over because she wants to "socialize without really socializing" it's so good when people get you/how you self care! :P
I wished more people were like that :-)
I came to this video because I'm a big +Grace Helbig fan. I was in the middle of an anxiety/depression funk so this advice, coming from someone I look up to is perfect. Couldn't have been a better time for this video. You don't know how much this helped me. Thank you both.
I'm 11 1/2 months clean from cutting and the biggest ways to keep my head clear from bad thoughts I draw, listen to music, and solve my Rubik's cubes.
Awesome! 🎊🎉
+Jessica Dawson you'll make it some day.
+Sam Henders right on
So cool!!!! Congrats on the hard work- I know that's not easy. Keep being strong!
Tomorrow (April 1), will be 8 weeks without cutting, for me!!!
Thank you, Grace, for your transparency!
Great collab, Kati! This is actually one of the things that I've been working on lately. I've realized that taking time for myself for basic needs, even eating a leisurely dinner, instead of feeling bad that I haven't gotten more done, is ok. We're all human, and we have to be our best physically and mentally to do our best in the rest of our life!
I love funny Grace but I REALLY love serious Grace! She has such a smart, thoughtful perspective!
hey Kati! I've been following you for years. I had a very traumatic hospitalization for mental health issues almost 3 years ago. I have a very hard time trusting mental health professionals now and am scared to ask for help. Your videos are helping me see that there are good therapists out there. I am starting to see that getting help is SOOO important for my mental health and I probably won't be in that situation with the hospital again. You continue to give me hope and inspire me in my recovery. thank you for bringing hope to so many people ❤❤❤
lol, Mamrie's prosecco bottles in the background 😂

I'm SO glad you are getting so popular, Kati!! You deserve all the success in the world! You've helped me a lot and many other people as well :) LOVE you too Grace!!!
I recently subscribed to your channel because it gives me a good pick me up when I have to miss my weekly therapy sessions if im sick or have a scheduling conflict. I love them so much!! Especially these collabs with some of the creators who have helped me through my recovery.
I just sorted value cards recently as a way to see what areas I can explore and incorporate into satisfying activities. I started an art journal tonight but this vid gave me the idea of taking myself on "field trips" like when I was in grade school. There's tons of free stuff I can do like go to museums, discover some weird stores, go on a nature hike and/or picnic, do some outdoor drawing, visit local historical sites, parks, talks, book signings, etc.
Awe this was a pleasant surprise!! I love funny sarcastic Grace, but I love Grace when she talks on a more serious note just as much ❤️
Wow Kati and Grace! My favorite two CZcamsrs, I'm so incredibly happy! ☺️💖
Also the techniques are really helpful, thank you for putting all the effort into your videos, Kati. We appreciate it so much. You are an amazing person, please keep your great attitude! 💕
I was waiting for this collab to happen! I feel like itsGrace videos are my personal therapy: whenever I feel down or stressed out, I watch one of them and it makes me smile and helps me a lot! Thanks Grace and Kati!
So exited that you made a video with Grace!!! And there are some great tips here! :)
I'm clean for 7 months and 10 days by now and what helped me with it was promising it to someone I really, really love and who I know would be hurt more than it would hurt myself if I did again. I also listen to music a lot, write stuff down I want to do like creative ideas for example to which I can get back to when I'm stressed out, read a lot, go to my horse (that helps a lot and is really perfect by the way!) and stuff like that to take care of myself. I also watch TV shows a lot and see my therapist regularly which also helps my brain to shut down sometimes. She teached me deep breathing techniques to calm myself during exams when I for example start to be scared and maybe get a panic attack. We also built up a routine that makes it easier for me to get back into homework and learning for exams when I'd usually just sit there and do nothing.
Great energy, great interaction between these two!
I loved this collab between the two of you and would love to see it happen again!!
This video makes me so happy because in a way I idolize Grace and it's just really comforting to know that she goes through similar things that I do when it comes to mental health. She's human. Great work ladies! Thank you for giving me hope.
You have a contagious positive energy. I loved the video. Hugs...
I really needed this. Thanks!
Love Kati’s bubbly personality
I'm so glad you two collabed! I love Grace, and her books definitely helped me because of the way she opened up about mental health.❤️ It's great hearing you both speak about the importance of taking care of yourself.👍 Thanks ladies! 😊😘
Oh I loved this! I really love seeing this side of Grace. I'm 25 and definitely relate to struggle between working constantly or thinking constantly about work and the need to take meaningful time off (without feeling guilty). It's especially difficult because my work environment is regularly chaotic. It's always good to hear that this struggle is more or less universal-- from media stars to average Joes, we're in this together!
This was a really helpful video, and also reinforced things I already know but don't take the time to do. Thanks! 💗
thank you so much kati you have really helped me
This is awesome I love Grace thanks Kati for this I love to do a lot of drawing and trying out new mediums
YAYYYYYY I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!!
and i have to say my no1 self care and distract technique (opposite to emotion if we are talking dbt) is watching Grace!! def changes my mood :)
This video has really helped me sooo much!!!!!
Those are a lot of good recommendations, expecially with exams coming up for me. I usually try to have an hour break for myself everyday so I don't burn out.
Grace is so nice 💕 thanks Kati 💕
I love insightful life-talk Grace! Seeing this side of her always just makes me admire her even more :)
I struggle finding the correct balance between taking time for myself and doing all of the things I need to get done for my classes.
It's so important to remember to just breathe every once in a while. Great video Kati!
Yaaay! My two favs togetherrrrrrrr
This is so awesome, Kati!
Keep these awesome collabs comin!
We love 'em! :-*
You are brilliant, woman.
AHHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!
OMGOSH this is the best thing evarrrrrrr!!! Way to go Kati!!!!!! Love Grace!!!!! xo
You both were Awesome
AWESOME!!
loved this video ! and both of you are so pretty!
OMG Katie your hair looks amazing really suits you.
I love grace so much. in a not...weird way. but like she's great honestly she inspires me massively in every way. also her hair is a messy perfect mop of ..hair and reminds me of my own hair. its great.
Kati and Grace! My two biggest CZcams inspirations in one video. I loved this so much! Great advice for me: someone who struggles with balancing my work/education/mom/personal life!
We spend so much time on the outside and not much time on the inside inside is important looks don't last forever a personality change for best can last.
I always feel guilty when I take time for myself and do something enjoyable and relaxing instead of something "productive". But I'm going to take inspiration from this video to give myself some time - I prepared paints and brushes and I'm planning to spend evening with them.
This was so great to relax and listen to while driving
He'll yea loved thus vid like all your vids . you are amazing at what you do .x 😊 💙
Yessssss! Good things. ♡
I'm a libra and really relate to feeling so much better after cleaning my area before getting started and stuff like that!
This video is amazing :) I love it!
Loved this video!! Also loved the presence of upside down Mamrie!!
Awesome video!
Aaaa, I love the two of you!!!
Love this happy chat 👌
So happy to see the signature tree in the intro again! I've really missed it!
I love crafting! I actually talked about how I use crafting to distract myself from panic attacks in the video I put up today so that's a fun coincidence I saw this video today. Who knew crafts could be so powerful haha. Love this video. It's so important that we realize taking some alone time off is not being lazy or failing, it's really beneficial! -Mel
Great video lady's!! Xx
Thank you so much for making this video!! I am a social work major, and I was planning on talking about self-care in my group for grad school. This totally helped me. Going to recommend this video to others & add it as a fav :)
Heck YES! Great video. :-)
New subscriber here! Your videos are like Netflix binges for me. I need to get back to studying but with every video, I see 4 more that interest me. Just one more and I'll get back to studying...
when I'm feeling anxious i usually write songs..its really a great thing to turn something thats negative into a song that you're proud of... just a suggestion to anyone :)
Great advice. People don't realize the benefits of disconnecting from all of those things that are constantly stimulating your day to day.
Great tips ladies ! Keeping life in balance is very important :-)
Yesterday was my last session in therapy and I'm really excited because it took a lot of hard work to get there. But I wanted to know if you could make a Monday about having absentee parents. This was one of the biggest struggles for me in therapy and it still is. My mom left when I was three and she's been in and out of my life ever since it's been this constant cycle of her promising to be a better parent and be there for me and my sisters and us getting our hopes up only to have her go back on her word just days later. One of the biggest things my therapist had to check me on is that I make excuses for her behavior or I have a really bad habit of taking on the blame even though I know I didn't do anything. So during yesterdays session she left me with this she said that sometimes we have to come to the realization that there are bad people in this world and sometimes those people are our parents and I have to find a way to mourn that parent that I wish I had and except the parent that I do I have. So long story short I would love to have a video on this topic because I know I'm not the only one.
So proud of you ❤️❤️
trash thank you....It's been interesting managing on my own these last days.....but this is when the real work starts
+Ashtin Paulet I relate to this so much. I can ruminate for days on end wishing my parents were different people. Like you said it's important to remember we did nothing wrong and leave that guilt with them because it doesn't belong with us :-)
Natalie Lamon Right now I'm in the process of writing her a letter which is really weird because I'm mourning the loss of someone who is still alive. But I feel like even if I don't give it to her it's still nice to put words to my feelings I'll always love my mom she gave birth to me but at this point I know that it's best that I love her from a distance.
I watch a lot of CZcams. Lol love you guys!
Amazing grace... i see what you did there
I loved this video! Over time I have learned that exercise helps me de-stress and feel better in general (I'm super lazy, but I push myself to do it anyways). I love to spend time with my dogs or cook/bake something as well. Also fellow Libra here :)
+Kati Morton (Mental Health Vlogger) I'm a licensed psychotherapist from Portugal and I can confirm everything you said :) Let me just add as a self care tool: LEARN TO ASK FOR HELP (from family, friends, a therapist, etc). Everyone deserves it! We do not have to do it all alone! :) x
Kati AND Gracie?! :D A great stress reliever for me is coloring...yes Im an adult but it works and I love it xoxo
I just love that Giant Mamrie's head in the background
Thank you for this video! I always need as many helpful tips as possible to take care of myself! You'd think it would come naturally, right? But ... no.
Anyway, one thing I do is journal. But not necessarily with a task in mind. More like a stream of consciousness, so I can just find out what's even in there.
First :)
I do a lot of rainbow loom when I'm stressed out, I also write in my journal when no one is around but I have done that very often.
Love the video Kati!!!
+Kati Morton (Mental Health Vlogger) it's hard to do but it's really fun 😊
The cutest happy friends ever lol
As I have been to a couple of Tony Robbins events I can say I really enjoyed them and got a lot from them. The firewalking is quite fun but I got more out of it the second time I went.
MY TWO FAVES😭
Only watched 40 seconds and had to thumbs up. I made it to the credits but you had me at hello
My self care routine is making a homemade face mask, listening to my favorite music, doing my makeup, and sitting naked on my couch while watching TV. All of these things make me feel like I am worth all of the love and affection I get from friends and family. I also do some other things, that I won't mention, but those things just make me love my body and feel relaxed.
I just started a new job last week so this is perfect timing! I find it hard to take small treats (ie coffee) when i'm working cos i feel like i'm wasting the money i've earned.
lol,Mamrie's big upside head just casually lurking in the background !
this was helpful. good to know that people that have their shit together also like to veg out, don't feel so guilty as much :)
in therapy I reached a point where a part of me likes to sabotage and procrastinate so I am bad at self care especially lately. I was told taking care of myself is going to be hard for me.
Will you do a video on what appropriate boundaries are between you and your spouse/partner on the content that is discussed in therapy? I just started therapy and am having a hard time not telling my partner about everything my T and I discuss even if it is detrimental to our relationship. Thanks!
Also, I like that in the vid above it is about putting yourself first in order to have better relationships around you!
Kati.M. Esto por las redes sociales. Que digo esto. Físicamente nunca. Y tenía Esperanza. Gloria a Dios.
I'am a Libra too, like both of you.sometimes we have very masculine traits when de-stressing . I don't fish but I like some video games. I like your channel, I am subscribing.
omg what an underrated collab
ikr
I'm so into Candy Crush. I feel like I'm too far in to delete it though. But I recently got into puzzling, which has been an incredible way for me to take my mind off things, but still be working toward something. I highly recommend it!
I'm a Libra too!
VIDEO REQUEST: Hi Katie, could u do a video on post natal depression or other mental health related pregnancies?
Hi Grace and Kati.
Hi Kati! First of all, i love your channel and i think it's really nice that you take your time to do all of these videos!
And second, yesterday i tried to download one of your workbooks. And to be able to download it you have to confirm your email address in an email that you sent. But i never got that mail. I tried multiple times and checked if i wrote my address right, which i did. But i still never got the email to confirm it. I don't know if it's a bug or something, just thought i'll let you know!
Sunday is my day off so I'll sleep in, eat a good breakfast, read a book with a steaming mug of coffee and then do workout and then whatever the hell I want
Great Video, thanks so so much. I wished you lived in Ohio, you would definitely be my therapist. Iam addicted to this channel. :-)
Spotted: a wild Mamrie Hart lurking in the shadows of this video.
I was totally playing candy crush through the entire video :P I wish I were better at stepping out of my comfort zone. I know how much more energized it always makes me feel, but sometimes anxiety is really stubborn...
+Kati Morton
I really liked this talk. I would not have minded if it was closer to 30 minutes than 10.
How about an in-depth coffe and a chat about how to build yourself up after a break-up? I'm not talking about immediate action after heartbreak, but what you do years later when there's still a black hole in your heart?.. I can't be the only one.
Kati if you're reading this can you please make a video about school refusal or school phobia it's something that I am currently suffering from, if you could that would be great! -Frank
Kati, can you please talk about EMDR. My therapist (who i've been seeing for almost 2 years) wants me to consider doing this with her (she is becoming trained in this now) since I just opened up about a trauma that happened 7months ago. I'm really considering saying yes but i've read how hard the process is and it scares me. What would you suggest??
her eyes thooo ommgg
what is the term the use to talk about leisure activities? it sounds like monogness or something like that..
