@@IzzySealey妳是医生,医生喜不喜欢做爱,做爱对身体健康嗎?
i can love you forever!
Techniques:
1 - brain dump. For five minutes or so, just get all of your thoughts and feelings down. Don’t censor yourself.
2 - gratitude. Write down a few things you are grateful for - anything - they can be very ordinary.
3 - ask your higher self. Ask a question, and allow your higher self to answer through writing.
4 - bullet journaling - an organization method. No details provided, but she says it’s critical for her.
5 - expressive writing. Similar to the brain dump, perhaps the same thing. She mentions writing about difficult past experiences, with more intentionality to dig into the past.
6 - story worth moment. Each day captured by one line so you create a log that you can look back on significant happenings.
7 - goal setting and manifestation. You are far more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down.
8 - wheel of life. Rate all major areas of your life from 1-10. The categories are: Fun and recreation, physical environment, business/career, finances, personal growth, romance, family and friends, and health.
9 - holistic check-in. Write down how you are feeling, using “I feel” statements.
10 - weekly review. Review the past week, and plan on the upcoming week. Decide on a theme for the week, such as rest, and set a few goals.
Tips: keep it minimal in the beginning; set a timer for five minutes; habit stacking with other practices like meditation; choose a beautiful journal and pen.
Take action: Pick two things to get started, right now.
Personal recommendations: rip apart and throw away your brain dumps and expressive writing, otherwise you will censor yourself in case someone finds it. Loose leaf paper is better than a journal for this. // For story worthy moments, shop for a five year journal. // Keep your journals next to your bed, and consider doing a sleep and dream journal. // Write down your wins at the end of the day.
SO COOL that you took the time to help *every one* by writing this out, Adam. Thank you sincerely.
Thank you for this. I think she's saying "bullet journal" not bulletin. It's a planner system.
@@sandi5276 You’re welcome!
@@Sue_Shiko Thanks!
thank you for the summary Adam, i was just looking for a summary. 💯
You can tell your higher self she helped at least one person. Well done and thank you.
Ohhhh thank you so much 🥺❤
@@IzzySealey well that is two persons now.i just came across your channel and i am wondering why it never showed up in my feed sooner.you are just so amazing.
It's 1 am in China, and I just finished journaling. It feels like I just had a therapy session with myself-haha! I'm feeling so calm and refreshed at the same time❤
How can you access CZcams despite Chinese?
@@liberty1348 Probably a VPN
@@liberty1348 Through VPN, even though it's illegal I heard you can do it "quietly" somehow
Where Is China? I am Indonesian
ahhh yesss it's the best feeling ❤
They did a study that found its not just finding things to list to be grateful everyday, but to change them up so that you SPEND TIME REFLECTING on what to be grateful for.... it is the time reflecting, looking for, things to be grateful for that causes the improved mood, not simply listing what you ought to be grateful for. FEEL the gratitude... SEEK the things daily to be grateful for.
Yes feeling is important, it's the same for manifestation also. I write what I'm grateful for and find 10 reasons why I am grateful for it, it definitely help 😊
I am 58 years old and have attempted starting a journaling practice / habit many time over the years by purchasing beautiful journaling books. The books always ended up being gifted to a friend who has journaled her whole life. Two weeks ago I started journaling on my IPad and it seems to be a much easier / consistent way for me.
I was thinking the same thing as I was listening to this video. Digital journaling might work best. I will start today.
That was exactly my frustration. Are you using a journaling app or tool? if so please share. If I don't have it with me, I won't do it. I think it may have to do with my ADHD.
I use Penzu online journaling and love it. It keeps things private. If I write things down on paper or have photos I can easily transfer them to the journal as an attachment or screen shot.
Nothing online is really private. And 20 years from now you won't be able to access them because of updates and data losses.
But a physical written book that requires no electricity or upgrades or technology will always be there
Stuff I wrote in the 80's is still there and I don't need to remember passwords or any technology to read it.
@@oliviahafnermunichteaching957 ~ I just created a google doc.
Stop watching journaling videos. Just do it.
Some of us have trauma around it. I had an emotionally abusive upbringing and had my journals used against me countless times as I was growing up. I wanted to be a writer, but I became so scared to commit anything to the page. So I’m just here trying to get over my trauma and to get back into a journaling practice.
😂
@@phancypahnts I thought I was reading my own comment because this is EXACTLY it for me !!
@@phancypahnts write your trauma one time only and read it again after a week. You need to reprogram your mind by listening to subliminals or hypnosis of what you want your life to happen or look like right now. Keep going back to your trauma isn’t going to help you instead you will just continue to relive it over and over. Subliminals & hypnosis will be uncomfortable at first but if you continue to do it every night for 90days big change will happen for you.
@@jveschi5875thanks, I will try it. I usually just try to not think about it.
Great video, I was in a beautiful marriage before my now ex wife left me, we were ALWAYS like two kids playing in a sandbox. We were best friends and we understand each other. We help each other 100%. i still love her and most times I cant stop thinking about her, i am doing my very best to get rid of the thought of her, but i just cant, i love her so much, i don't know why i am bringing this here for, i cant stop thinking about her.
its always difficult to let go of someone you love, i was in a similar situation, my wife for 31 years left me, i couldnt just let her go, i did all i could to get her back, i had to seek the help of a spiritual doctor who helped me bring her back.
thats amazing please how did you get a spiritual doctor and how do i reach him?.
its not a him, it a she, Her name is Queen Stella Laveaux,and she is a great spiritual adviser who can bring back your ex.
Thank you for this valuable information,i just looked her up now online. impressive
I really hope you find happiness 🖤 And usually the next is better than the ex! I think it's because of the lessons you learn from the ex and the standards you set, so the next one you find will meet all that and be all that and better! That's always been what I noticed at least. So even if you don't get her back, know it WILL get better. This is only just a small part of your life and time does make things easier. It will get better whether it's with her or not. You'll have downs of course because you're human and we all go through good and bad times, but you will find happiness again, it's not over for you. It might feel like that right now but I swear it isn't.
I journaled for half a year everyday but what i realised was that its not for everyone. I initially started it to ease my anxiety, however what happened instead was nothing. Journaling for me felt like a chore i was forcing myself to do. I saw no improvements over time and i gave up on it. I only keep a common place notebook where i write things i would like to remember, thoughts, advises, fun facts, all that.
I just started a commonplace notebook and I LOVE it.
@@TruFlyFox they're great!
Well said!
What kind of journalling did you try? :) Defo agree, different things work for different people
I did this when I first started journaling, I quit after a time. But I picked it up again 6 months later, after learning a better way to journal, that was easier and took less work. This time it stuck… even though there has been stretches of time when I didn’t journal. But I’ve found that 6 years later, having history to go back to when I need to remember a thing, is extremely useful. Journaling is like a muscle that exercise makes better. The more you enjoy going back to look at an event or a memory or notes from a meeting, or tracking emotions around menstruation or WHATEVER… the better you get at disclosing more useful details. And I’ve got to stage where I feel lost when I don’t have my journal. I use it for everything: planning, tasks, journaling thoughts and feelings, things to remember, what I’m up to in a task and what I have to do next when I get back to that task… Just saying, rather than saying That’s that, it’s not for me; allow yourself to find a different way that works for you because it can be very rewarding. Especially as you go through life’s changes.
I just came back from Africa Kenya after a 4 months humanitairien mission, journalying was a life saver.
I've journaled off and on for decades. It has totally changed my life.
I also think that this video is wonderful 17.53
Please make a bullet journaling video 💕 would love to see how you set it up!
yes, yes, please full video on the bullet journaling set up you use. thank you :D
No matter what Dr. Izzy is talking about, it's a pleasure to listen to and watch. It is aesthetically pleasing and has a positive vibe, but it is also informative at the same time. Thank you!
Journaling is my all time fave for transformations. I love looking back at my old journals sometimes and just completely blown away with the things I find.. like who was she lol. Love this. Thank you Dr. Izzy!
Thank you for explaining the life cycle of how we form our life events.
Dear Izzy, I'm should give you a big Thank U for you and your channel, it helped me out from the dark months and made me try to start loving myself. I feel I have a chance to pursue a better life for me and for my family. You have a very charming and comfort accent, and also friendly words and grammar to understand even for such a bad English learner like me. The content, never doubted.
I'm so happy to see you have over 580k subscribers for less than 100k. I cant wait to see more videos from you, it always not enough to see.
best and have a good one.
Preach! Love centering life around the value of gratitude
I just discovered this video today and I think I watched it 4 or 5 times. I love the way you expand so much beyond just basic writing style and habits. Thank you so much for sharing this. I will begin to put into practice some of these concepts and experiment with what works best for me. Wonderful video!
*OMG! Hi Izzy, I wait fot your content so much. So glad to see th notification. Thank you for talking about journalling. Keep it up! 🍁🌿*
Hey, I just left the journal habit, but seeing this makes me want to get back to it!
After watching this video, I noticed that I'm currently struggling with finding myself because I'm always changing and seeking a meaningful life. The fact that you mentioned capturing a moment is what I need right now.
Thanks, Dr. Izzy!
Saved the video to watch after my ongoing medical school finals.
Good luck to you.
Ahhhh I know the pain well. Good luck, I'm sure you've smashed them! :) ❤
Great video, Izzy! Thank you for making it! I'm so glad you decided to make videos on YT because you're helping not just one person but thousands of people. I'm grateful for you. Would love to see a video on your bullet system. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your posting! It’s wonderful to wake up to a positive, uplifting message. As for your content, I find it precise and to the point! I often find myself journaling when I need to clear my mind or just put my thoughts in writing. I have since used Google drive to journal (it is easier to edit and I can share it with friends if I choose to). Anyway, I really respect what you’re doing to the online community which is to give positive, uplifting advice to others and hopefully improve their lives! You’re also an inspiration to many young people who aspire to become doctors! Thank you again for sharing.
I did a lot of brain dump journaling when I was a teen with emotions I found difficult to understand or even control.
Recently I picked up journaling again, and I've found it so helpful in self discovery. I'd like to learn more about bullet journaling. I hope you make a video for it. Let me go download the book you highlighted as well.
I would love a full bullet journal tour with the reasoning behind your decisions
I would, too!
This video helped me so much. I am starting today. We are so self critical of ourselves and journaling will put those thoughts in perspective. Thank you for this ❤
I'm loving the editing skills btw.You definitely know how to keep us engaged a thing I'm learning and looking forward to implement.Thank you for always being an inspiration to many of us
I just found you today and 14 minutes in I’ve subscribed because I feel like you speak to me. Thank you for that. I would *love* a Bullet Journaling video from you. Yes, please.
This is exactly what i
Needed. Thank you for the clear thoughtful break down on this topic.
This is the best and helpful video about journaling I have watched thus far. It's simple to understanding the benefits and the structure of different type of journaling and therefore, this at least helps me to choose which one suit me and benefit for me on different date (depend on my situation).
Literally one of the best CZcams videos I've ever watched, you are an angel!!!
A couple of these prompts like the higher self advice and traumatic event journaling was great! I'm looking forward to trying them out literally tomorrow
I enjoyed your video as I do journaling myself. I had the same reasons why I did journaling as you mentioned on your video but lately as I’m nearing my retirement age, and “senior moments” often came. I find my journals a great help to remind of things, events & people who & which mattered to me. I really find writing my happy thing! Thanks for all the tips & ideas. May you continue your journey of journaling and I’m happy for you! 😊❤
I like the way this video was edited. Also great tips and insight on journaling. I love it, I feel almost naked without a journal/diary. I just picked up 2 the other day. It helps me to release, separate thoughts from the mind in tangible form, and find my life's purpose, jot down ideas and inspirations, and look back on ❤ journaling is so nice
Love the video! Im actually in Alis year long prod program and has started to really kinda reflect more... He/they have several reflection options so everyone can join one, and I have actually found my own "system", I plan for the week, then I join the reflection meeting on Friday night... to see whats done and whats left, that gives me two days to work on the stuff left to do and then I join "the same"/second reflection session on Sundays and hopefully that will make me more productive. Love the stuff in this video, I will use stuff you talk about!
YES to the Bullet Journal! I had to jump down here before the video ended. I love my Bullet Journal! Also love this video! thank you So Much!
Thanks a lot for this super useful video, I already do many of those journaling methods, but I learned quite a few new things and loved your perspective on the ones I already do.
i've been bullet journaling since 2019 and have been expanding into other forms of journaling since then. i learned a lot of new forms from this video, thank you for sharing!
Journaling is such an underrated strategy to change you life and achieve objectives. I like to look back over the years and see how my perspectives, ideas, or viewpoints have developed. Thanks for sharing this. Super applicable!
Dear Dr. Izzy. I just wanted to let you know that your smile is truly a gift from God. You have this incredible ability to use your gaze and your smile as part of the healing process. Even without saying a word, you manage to convey comfort, empathy, and genuine care to your patients, making them feel more than just hospital patients or health plan clients, but rather human beings worthy of love and understanding.
Please, whenever you have a little free time, consider donating this wonderful smile to the children who are battling cancer. Your simple gesture can make their day happier and their treatment less painful. Every time you share this gift, you are spreading light and hope in a world that so desperately needs it.
I deeply appreciate everything you do, Dr. Izzy. You are an inspiration and a true example of kindness and compassion.
Journaling sounds like this is a good way to be our own psychologists, to record our wins for happiness, and analyze our goals and troubles to figure out our direction in life. Looks like a good system. Thanks for this info.
Your videos have been so helpful for me over the last year. Thank you. :)
I completely agree with you. Writing it down makes it real! 👍 Keep up the great work
Thank you very much for creating this video. I have a very nice time journaling through the day and I believe that every day we are creating something that's interesting or everyday lives when we are able to write a little bit more about the things that are happening in the things that are possible.
Writing things down makes such a significant impact on my mindfulness & intentionality!!! I’ve just started journaling this year, and it’s done me wonders so far. This was so informative, loved every second of the video, definitely applying the methods to my own routine!!! Thank you so much for sharing your tips & experience with us ❤
Intentionality is a pleasant word, with profound definitions
Thank u for this Dr Izzy! You've given such strong arguments here. You've definitely won me over
When Ruri said that you are like a meditation, I approved it. Thanks for every single piece of advice. Looking forward to more videos.
Hi Izzy! Thank you so much for putting together such a comprehensive video on journaling! I've been journaling digitally for years but your video has made me want to give paper journaling a try 😧 I would love to see a video on how you bullet journal, that would be so helpful! 💛
❤❤
I'm excited to start this in waxing moon energies. When we write our goals in blue ink, they are more likely to be accomplished. Writing in longhand (cursive, but don't curse, only Bliss) grants access to the subconscious mind, and the correct formation of each letter cultivates the virtues represented by that letter. Additionally, the act of writing is an action that takes our desires from non-physical to physical because they go from thoughts to words. Then speaking forth our carefully worded declaration or decree ads another layer of manifestation that is indelibly imprinted on our inner and outer environment.
I loved this video and am soooo grateful to have your content appear on my feed. I know the benefit of journaling, but it has been a long time since reaping ibenefits. Your suggestions are awesome! I commit to reengaging my bullet journal and using the advice from my higher self model. Perfect timing. I subscribed. You made my freaking day. THANK YOU!🙏
Thank you for such a sweet comment - you've made my day!! Ahh yes I loveee the higher self perspective - hope it's helpful! 🥰
This video found me at the right time. I am incredibly grateful for this video. Thank you!
One video that sums up the topic completely with the notes for areas where we fail and leave the process in between. Perfection is the enemy of good.
Start small that can be completed in 5 mins.
Thank you Izzy , you inspired me to start and that's what i did this morning. Mom brought me a new lavender journal on my bday, today i dusted it and started writing my to do lists, my gratitude thoughts, and How can i make things more Fun today.
We love you ❤
Thanks for this short informative video
Always good to see u
Keep up your good work
Take care
These practices are going to be more instrumental in my life than ever! Thanks, Izzy!
Always love to listen your channel ❤️
Been journaling for a couple of years now. It really helps. Will make a video about it too someday.
Thank you ! Your humour and light hearted mood made me feel better ❤
Hi Izzy! I rarely comment on videos, but I want to let you know that I loved your video. I have been on this journaling/performance journey for a long time, and I can tell that this is very well-researched, and it truly captures the majority of things that work for me! Good job!
Thank you!! :) ❤
Thanks Dr Izzy from Aleppo ,Syria 🇸🇾🇸🇾
Your videos are so helpful & amazing ...Best of luck &keep going
I only have one term this year, and I must complete my master's dissertation. This will be immensely beneficial for me. Many thanks.
Love that! I started journaling since I got into some health issues and it definitely made a difference in putting a frame at some things I was going through momentarily.
Def not for everyone, but journaling can have such a positive impact and may make a world of difference.
*Bullet point and gratitude journaling are game changers though! 😅
Love it!
I also really love how you match your background, Izzy! Lovely blue and white shirt 💙💙
Love this video Izzy, thanks so much for sharing!
Found my answer! Thank you Dr. Sealey ❤
You have singlehandedly jumpstarted me on journalling!!! THANK YOU ❤
I'm so glad! 🥰
Thank you for your contributions. Much gratitude. ❤❤❤
Love your presentation I am journaling since 4 years and yes I love doing it it's magical and life changing
Yes! Bullet Journal video please!!! Thank you so much for this video! It has motivated me to get back into journaling.
I have been bullet journaling for the last three months and even my friends can see the nice changes... I'm finishing my master abroad, writing my thesis and looking for jobs. and now I realized all mistakes I was making, specially in mindset and habbits, now I see the shift, absolutly reccomended. I'm already seeing the results.
Thank you for making this video. Your efforts are appreciated!
Thank you 🩵🩵🩵Valuable video for me - and yes!🙌 agreed - that journaling will change life. I’ve just completed one journal (pages are full) where on one side of the page I wrote daily about all the things I’m thankful for and on the other a “dreaming of and praying for” space. After one year of doing this (March 2023 to now), I’ve let go of 55lbs, moved into a new space that has many of the elements I was dreaming of and my focus to create something is honed to a good spot to begin a small side-hustle. Truly changed my life in one year. The power of writing. 🩵🩵🩵 REQUEST PLEASE: At minute 22:30-ish you talked about setting a “theme” for your week… can you expand on that concept in another video? I do a “word of the year” and that’s so helpful, I’m imagining what marrying it with a smaller theme idea could do for a week or even a month… 🤔
This is such an interesting video! First time coming across your Channel. You seems like a wonderful person to be around! Kudos for the video!
I really love your voice. It is so sweet and clam to listen to.
I used to binge your videos when I first found your channel and it shocks that you still haven't hit a million 😭great video!!
Beautiful. A big thumbs up. Actually had my journal in hand while watching this, to note stuff. Also noted some stuff that was bothering me. Have a good day.
You are gorgeous sis!! ❤ Also thank you for the video x
So helpful, I loved this episode thank you Izzy ❤
Absolutely! Just a minute of journaling each day can significantly amplify self-awareness and goal attainment. It's fascinating how such a simple practice can lead to profound insights and positive changes. 📓
Thank you so much for your content, so helpful, really peaceful, graceful content. Your videos and scenery at the back is really beautiful and inspirational.
Yes please to the Journal Video! 🤍
It's superinteresting. I never met you in my life, but I almost journal the same way 🙂This feels good. Another soulsista somewhere in the void 🙏
You’re so well spoken! Also please post your bullet journaling system! I’m super curious
I love these ideas and concepts and have written some goals down in my Journal ❤
Hi
Dr.Izzey. enjoyed listening to you. Have been thinking about journaling for some time but never knew how to get started. Hopefully will get off the ground. Will listen to more of you yo get motivated.
This was a good lengthy watch! Thank you Izzy.
It’s a pleasure to watch this video, I will try to journal everyday. Thanks sooo much! 🙌🏽
I accept this challenge Dr.Izzy🤩🤩🤩
I will update the results after 3 months 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Oh! Artists improve faster when they focus on quantity rather than quality! Now you're telling me writing more (not better) about your feelings improves understanding and resilience?? My life is changed, lady. The crippling perfectionism is gone! (not yet but I'll get there lol get it?)
I love you and the way you deliver your message. This is everything I needed rn.
Please do show us your bullet journal set up!!!!
Fascinating! The Zero-energy theory in physics is that the net balance of energy in the Universe is 0. The positive and negative (complimentary opposites) cancel out to be balanced and produce a neutral result. If you apply this to human psychology then it would follow that any positive or negative bias regarding our beliefs about the benefits and drawbacks (pleasantness or unpleasantness) of any particular situation are the result of an unbalanced perspective of not seeing the advantage in the disadvantage. The past is malleable, at least from a psychological perspective and we tend to misremember about 50% of everything anyway so by exploring the benefits you received from unwanted events and situations you can become a master of your destiny and the journaling recommendations are a great way to do that. With regards to being consistent I think that understanding your hierarchy of values (Axiology) and tying these practices to them makes it easier on a more fundamental level. I'll definitely be using your Notion template. Thanks for saving me time and effort!
This really helped me. Thanks a lot.
Thank you Izzy for the great video and advice! Would love to see a video on how you bullet journal 😊
Your accent is such pleasure to my ears ☺️
wow! such an awesome video, i've been taking notes along the way and replaying sections of this video. I didn't catch everything and will have to watch it 50x more. thanks so much for this! new sub to your channel!
Awh thank you for watching!! Excited for you and all the epic journalling ahead ❤❤
Good breakdown. Helps me with put this into practice. Thanks Izzy.
I brain dump + gratitude with a little "I’m working on this" and "these are my dreams."
I like asking my higher self through it. Ty
Perfect timing 12:26
