Thank you for watching!
I would highly recommend Gilmore Girls as a cozy series to watch during your downtime. It's great especially for this time of year
Yessss
Is it in Netflix x
Very good recommendation!! Gilmore Girls is such a brilliant, clever show about love and relationships, you will love it Niomi x
Yes!
@@Tori22188 It is here is Canada and I think it is available in many other countries but I am not 100% sure which ones.
Gilmore Girls is the BEST series. Makes me feel all warm inside, especially during the Holiday Season. Makes you want to cozy up in bed with a hot coffee (😜 if u get the reference, give this a like!) , light some candles, and dim the lights. A really good vibes series. Have fun! Let us know how u like it. Xx
I agree. It's a show that can never get old no matter how many times it's watched. ❤
Agreed
As soon as October hit I started Gilmore Girls and it gave me sooo many wonderful vibes. That show got me through the hardest breakup and I will forever be so grateful. xo
or a "ho-cho"??
Yes Sameee
That sparkle in your eyes when you said „I got a piece of myself back“ ✨❤️ people always preach that it’s okay to be not okay, but please remember: it’s also okay to be okay!
Joey was so dreamy though 😍
@@webvinita I think you should delete that, it's just unkind and not considerate of someone's feelings.
@@webvinita maybe he wasn’t after all? Sorry, but your comment is really unnecessary and potentially hurtful for Niomi.
@@emilysmith1000 Didn't think it would come across inconsiderate but maybe it is. Still surprised by everything. She used to call him dreamy (and most of us agreed) and they seemed so happy in summer.
@@webvinita well I think it's good to imagine whether you'd say it to a friend or family member. It's kind of like saying "you lost something amazing". Just remember that you reap what you sow, if you get kicks from being kinda bitchy to someone online, you're not growing positivity in your own life 🙏
It's crazy how important 'strangers' on the internet can become to you. You're like the older sister I never had. Watching your videos is so comforting. Sending lot's of love
This is so true!!
Your personality seems to have changed a bit, in a way that you've become more confident and real. Way to go girl! Best of luck!
For those out there struggling to recover from heartbreak, know that there are other people out there who take a really really long time to heal too. It’s ok.
This is very true!! It took me about 3 years post breakup of a 6-yr relationship to truly be over the heartbreak.
Loved this video, my favourite kind and was lovely hearing you chat are getting a piece of yourself back 💛 I also really want to try one of those face tools now as I get so tense in my neck/jaw too x
I love your channel so much!! Seeing you in the comments made me smile ❤️xxx
Same - Niomi & Rhiannon are my favs. I just find them so lovely and calming x
Niomi, I haven’t even finished the video yet and I can already say this is literally my favourite video you’ve ever ever posted. Can’t even find the words to express how much I adore and admire you. This is making me feel so peaceful and easing my Sunday scaries haha! You are my absolute favourite and I hope you post even more videos like this! 💫❣️✨
This is exactly how I feel every time I watch Niomi's videos, she's so sweet and wise!
Same! I love the relaxed style of this video. Feels like we’re just hanging out
Yes totally felt like hanging with a girlfriend which is hard to do with covid going on! Loved it too 💕
It was lovely, wasn't it? Definitely felt more natural and gave me some serenity going into the week ahead.
This is so true!! You’re the sweetest and kindest person, keep on being you ♥️
✨there’s nothing more peaceful than connecting with your own soul...it’s the most powerful relationship you will ever have
This was such a lovely, cosy video. It was like having a chat with a really good friend. You go Niomi, you're glowing!
I appreciate how you’ve filmed this. No make up, no set up. Just a casual chat. Thank you for this 💕 this video is like a hot cup of cocoa 🤗
Brooklyn 99 has become a comfort show for me, there's relatively short episodes on Netflix and it gets you invested in the characters, its a load of fun! xx
Your energy feels like you got a part of yourself back. Sending you every bit of love in the world- thank you for inspiring me always.
The fact that you had to cancel your engagement, broke up with him after being together for years , had to change your whole life . And you are this happy and relaxing it’s honestly so amazing ! You are honestly the best person your momma raised you right
@@maureenfranks4899 yup
How do you know aha broke up with him? I have never heard anyone say.
@@Southern_BooKcharm i think she said it in one of her videos!
@@Southern_BooKcharm they ended their engagement? Some one broke up with some one 😳
What video does she say that
I’m having a difficult time dealing with a breakup, learning how to be alone/single again and being ok with that. Seeing you this way gives me all the hope! I’m very happy for you, you deal with this very gracefully
Everyone deals with ending any relationship differently, it can take a short amount of time or years to heal. She has gone through hers, have the decency to not judge and simply be happy for her. ❤️ You’re amazing Niomi, keep thriving!
I think you’ve handled this beautifully and with grace. When I was much younger I went through a tough break up and I sat down to write him a letter and poured my heart out. When I was finished writing it I tore it up and I can’t tell you how much better I felt. I totally get you saying you got a part of yourself back. Sending love 💜
your talk really resignated with me. when i was going through a similar tough time, a lot of people expected me to reach rock bottom and be a mess for the next year . but aftet the first wave of sadness, i found myself being so motivated and calm with were i was in life, i felt a new energy going forward and liked being completely with myself. it helped me love and heal myself so much. i’m glad you are living your authentic life ❤️
resonated?
You go girl 🤞🏽👌🏽
love listening to this, it brings me such peace - close your eyes and let let go of the world for a minute - I hope it brings you peace too, even if it’s for a moment ❤️

@@MagneticNorth61 thanks tips, because that autocorrect was obvious
The Queen’s Gambit is amaaaaazing, the synopsis sounds so dull but it’s actually such a brill show, on Netflix
YES
Just watched the entire thing in one night because of this comment. It’s so good
Annabel Fox yaaas 🙌🏼 so bloody good
Yes!!
Agree, I was going to recommend it myself. So good!
Gosh that resonated with me! Sometimes realising you’ve lost a part of yourself is only apparent when it starts coming back, I had that recently too :)
Sending good vibes your way! ☺️
Niomi, I think this is one of your nicest videos. You are being so honest, and I'm so glad you are feeling happy. Think we learn a lot from ourselves when we go through something. This video certainly made me feel relaxed though. The simplest things in life are the best! x 😊
This is my favorite video of yours. Ever. You were the most genuine I've ever seen you be, I feel like I got to know you truly and not just the youtube girl. I feel very connected now. Appreciate it!
It’s so interesting that people messaged you on social media. This year has moved incredibly slowly and quickly at the same time, it feels like. I vividly remember you struggling and not looking as happy or as centered - understandably so. But we have so much more time to ourselves this year that I think it has worked for your benefit. And there is no right or wrong length of time to move on. Doesn’t mean you won’t have moments of feeling sad or lonely or yearning for what you had, but only you and your CLOSE friends and family know the true reality of your life. Not us. We’re just here to enjoy whatever you allow us to see. And we thank you. ❤️
By far one of my favorite videos you have made. Just real honest conversation! I’m so glad to hear how well your doing. It’s not always about time but how you feel internally.
I loved “ “Easy”, which are more “raw” love stories, more real and also the vulnerable energy coming out of it. Like you get in touch with your emotion. Really loved it.
“I think I’ve got a part of myself back” don’t mind me crying 😭😭 love you Niomi❤️
This video warmed my heart! I love that you are reconnecting and really learning to love and look after yourself. I admire you and am so proud of you! 💓
It's not weird or crazy to feel happy after all you have been through! It's a testament to your inner strength and your support circle to get this way. This is empowering and not anything anyone can take away from you. Much love!
Naomi I went through a very similar time as you - recently ended a 5 year relationship and moved away to a new city near friends. I connected so deeply to your chat, especially when you said you found a part of yourself that you didn't know you lost. Amen sister I'm so happy to hear you're doing well
Have you watched Schitt's Creek? I love it as an easy watching and enjoyable show.
I think these type of videos are what make me feel better during these challeging times. I love to see and hear how people find their inner peace just by themselves. Thank you so much for this, Niomi. ❤️ Please more videos like these.
I love how real and open you are. The energy you give off is so pure and calming. You give me hope ❤️
I really respect and enjoy the direction of this channel! I love the honesty and the unashamed discussion of self care. I recently went through a tough time but I dug deep and found a lot of resources I didn't know I had and some people are finding it hard to accept that I'm actually fine and not just fine but really happy! I think to see someone truly happy and thriving is hard when you are feeling lost and makes people lash out. Loving the content xx
I can’t wait for your vlogmas❤️✨ Hope you’re doing good and loved this kind a chill/real video 💖
I just love this kind of video, it's great to see you feeling good with yourself after such a tough situation. You chatting with us like this I fell like a friend, so genuine. Take care Niomi
Thank you so much for being so open and vulnerable Niomi. Really resonated with me. Beautiful to see your progress and how happy and relaxed you are.
That song during your hand stand pose just makes me think "Niomi!" I love it! I can't wait to see where you take your future. One day at a time and focusing on taking goodness in and giving goodness out and you'll continue to get past this Niomi!
When I separated from my now ex husband it was like a weight had been lifted and I had an amazing support system and because of that it was easy to be ok and happy and allow me to heal the way I needed to. Only you are going through your journey and you know what is best for you!
Exactly! How you deal with an ending to a relationship is different with each relationship you have. There are so many factors involved. Your mental state and feeling of stability when it happens or if it was something you knew was coming or if it was out of the blue. Even the time of year can be a factor. There is no wrong way to move on with your life and find your new path and routine.
You need to read the book first! So much better after reading the book xx
Good for you girl 🥰
This type of video is my favourite type of video. I feel so relaxed after watching that. Thank you for being real with us through this hard stage in your life. sending love xx
Everyone processes differently - kudos to you for working through the challenges you've recently experienced in such a healthy and positive way. I am a few videos behind but thank you for the self-care & self-love tips you've shared along the way.
This video has been so calming. I have also been going through a rough time and I cannot express how your honesty and rawness has helped me feel a little bit more at peace and present. Thank you, Niomi.
You should watch ''the marvelous mrs maisel'' . I wasnt expecting anything before watching it but..this tv show is definetely my fav from now on. there is nobody that ı recommened and didnt like it !
Yes it’s so good!
great recommendation!
Yes! IT IS SO GOOD. Someone actually recommended this to me a long time ago but since the title didn't really speak to me I procrastinated watching it. Well, might be in my top 3 series I ever watched.
Ecenaz Can I second this ... it’s my favorite show almost of all time!
Omg its the best show evaaa❤️
“I got a part of me back and I never knew I lost it” I really felt that. Sometimes it takes something negative to happen to realise who you are? That’s not how I want to word it but I can’t think of another way 😂
I'm so happy for you and for the way you've dealt with your storms. You always inspire me!
Hi Niomi,
Don’t worry about unplanned videos, they tend to be real and showing how life is.
With regards to the criticism, it says a lot about them than you.
Being on a platform that started real and slowly became super fake and superficial...you are definitely on the right track and that is why I look forward to watching your videos on Sundays! 😊
You do you and be you and ignore the critics, it’s just noise.❤️❤️❤️
I'm in awe of how much you take care of yourself. Everything you do (from the little things like the food you put in your body, the ingredients you put on your skin, the kind of exercise you do with your body, to the decisions you make i your life) is a way of loving yourself. This is such a lesson. I did not realise I sabotage and neglect myself throughout my day. Thank you so much for that. I'm french, so Merci beaucoup. Ps : Emily in paris is a bit cringy sometimes as a french too, but it made me want to watch till the end.
same, watching this and another video by another person i kinda feel bad for just about my eating as i see and know i could be fueling my body in so many better ways.. small changes can make a big difference
I actually loved this video. It so nice to see you just relaxed and happy, and I’m so glad to hear you’re feeling good. Don’t let anyone tell you how you ‘should’ be feeling. Do you. It was like chatting with a friend and such a comfort to watch. Thank you 💗
I think your spot on , self love and self care are super important!!! I’m so happy that your happy and even more so to hear u got a piece of yourself back , I totally understand that ... it’s easy for other people to judge even those that don’t know you ! I would say to those people , be kind ! Keep being you Niomi !!! Keep smiling , keep that light that shines from you , it’s so beautiful to watch ❤️
Had the exact same reaction by seeing the first few episodes of Emily in Paris, but by pushing myself to see the rest, I actually grew to like it!
And I must say, Niomi, that it is true that it's okay not to be okay, but we must also validate the fact that it's completly okay to be okay as well. We all have our own growing process, and not everyone gets to have the same self-experience from similar events on our lives. Loved to hear about you in such a peculiar (and let me say probably my fave) kind of videos, it was like I was actually chatting with you and It was amazing. So thank you for sharing your evening with me (us). ❤
Lots of love from Lisbon!
If you want something light and fun I’d definitely recommend Good Girls! It really lifted my spirit up during those weird and gloomy times! Also, the part where you said you got a part of yourself back was so beautiful, I got teary eyes! So happy for you Niomi, you deserve everything! Lots of love your way xxx
Niomi you are glowing inside and out which is so lovely to know ✨ you’re a true person with true views. Glad you’re on the right path again💕💜
Don’t listen to anybody but yourself. You are so inspiring. I’m going through the very similar situation and strangely with all the pain all of the sudden I felt that I’m finally being myself again. And I realized how much of “me” I lost. And it feels really great to be living MY life again. No one can tell what should you feel, because everybody is different. You are an amazing person, Niomi. I really like this quote from Sex and The City “ The most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself.” ❤️
I much prefer natural, simple, unstaged videos like this.
I completely agree!
I’ve always loved your videos, Niomi, but this is the most relatable one I’ve ever watched. Just felt so normal and down to earth. I’m happy you’re happy 💕
Such a lovely video, Niomi! Love these chilled videos. It's great that you've shared a life update. Glad you're being yourself again. God bless you in your endeavours.
Niomi, I've followed you for years and I've always loved your videos but this was wonderful! It's clear going through these experiences is helping you become a stronger, confident woman. I'm closer to your mum's age and she'll probably tell you, too..don't dwell on the past. It's good to feel it..process it ..then move on. Don't pull up a chair and linger. There will always be people who want to see others handle pain the way they would and are uncomfortable with seeing others handle it differently. You just keep it moving. This is your journey and I love watching you take it.
I would recommend "The Nanny" , it's my all time favorite series
Random videos are the best and selfcare ones too, I've been in a rut today and this has helped me feel calm so much! Thank you and so glad your doing well 💕
Loved this video. I've been on a similar path to you since February and not as far as you on my journey to recovery. You give me hope and a reason to look forward and not back. Thank you xxxx
I have always admired your authenticity and wisdom, Niomi. This video was so, so cathartic and calming for me -- definitely one of my favorite videos of yours.
How on earth someone DM’s you and has the cheek to say that you need to face the situation is really such a weird thing to do. Even if coming from a good place, we see a tiny bit of your life. You have been through the worst of situations and you have the right to deal with it how you want. I just wish you love, happiness and health. Do you 😘
These people are bitter, middle aged Karens from that nasty gossip site. Kinda terrifying by how invested they are in Niomi's life. Niomi should get a restraining order tbh.
@@GreySalt omg I’ve been calling these people out for years....they’re absolutely obsessed with her and they seem to have endless amounts of time to devote to hating her, they do this to others as well. I can’t stand how much shit these people think they can say to people....when I went there to check, I couldn’t even stomach how nasty they behave and talk. Don’t go there 🤯😭
@@GreySalt What gossip site? I'd love to go and rip into them ☺️
Bravo! Your honesty is so refreshing. Love having ‘you’ back!!
Omgeee...that time were you say, "You found back a part of yourself again - not knowing you lost", it tugged so many emotions all at the same time...Much love and light to you.
This is my favorite video that you’ve ever filmed! I love how genuine and raw this was! I’m glad you’re feeling better! You deserve happiness!
I wasn’t in my last relationship for very long but realized that it wasn’t for me and I deserved so much more from a partner. After the break up I started putting my happiness first, taking the toxic relationships out, and doing things for me and I’m genuinely happy for the first time in a while and it’s amazing. So glad you are genuinely happy and doing great!
I didn’t know my soul needed this video. Perfect sunday video 🤍 It’s wonderful to see you thriving in yourself again. I actually have come back to following you since after the summer, there is a spark back in you that I missed. Sending you all my love. xxx
Thank you so much for sharing Niomi, this resonates so much! Really listening to my own needs helped me build such a connection with myself recently. I'm honestly grateful for the tough time that set this whole process in motion. Loved the video. Xx from The Netherlands
I'm so happy that you're starting to feel more content with yourself 💖 for Netflix recommendations I've really love Modern Family
It doesn’t matter how long it takes to heal. Just be your lovely self and take care of you 🥰
We all deal with things differently and just keep doing what your doing 🥰 sending lots of love x
I enjoyed the video and I have helped me get back into my yoga - I’m struggling and now we are isolating as my daughter has just tested positive for Covid ( even when we followed the guide lines, mask etc)- so for me I will stay positive and keep my family safe with my hubby by my side and make time to do my meditation and yoga - Thankyou for always inspiring 🥰 your a beautiful soul xx
This is actually my favourite ever video of yours. It’s so raw and real and I feel like I’m actually really hanging out with you. It’s given me ideas for my own cosy evening! Thank you! I’d love to see more videos like this if it’s something you enjoy doing ♥️
I think that were you are now is the goal for everyone that its in this journey of self love and healing, you said it right, when you focus on yourself and the emotions you're feeling instead of running away from them is when the healing starts. I'm so thankful that you share these moments because some of us are living/dealing with kinda same issues. Loved this content i've missed it! XO From Mexico!
Sometimes in the midst of going thru something, the only thing that helps get to the light at the end of the tunnel is remembering that not everything is negative. We are alive, we have a roof over our heads, food in the cupboard, a warm bed, family, friends, job, etc so all is not bad. A breakup is tough but it doesn't define us a person.
A “clug” is a great product for vertically storing your bike and adding decor to your wall.
It’s so lovely to see you focusing so much on things you love and doing things for yourself!! It’s inspiring me to do the same as well!! I love videos like this also, very down to earth and peaceful
Was having a really bad time and your video popped up! So relaxing to watch and I can relate with everything you said. Especially about the part in you that was lost but you never knew before. It's has a deep meaning and the one who felt only can understand. Much love Niomi. Always be happy. 💕😊😊😁
It was such an honour to watch such a sweet and raw "girls night" with you, thank you for sharing your journey, being such an empowering and positive light in the world, and just generally being you. Love you
It’s relaxing to watch relaxed people! Your apartment is beautiful! Everything looks so wholesome and relaxing. I totally believe you’re genuinely relaxed. You live a pretty healthy lifestyle and seem to have great family friends supporting you. You’ve got healthy coping skills. Why wouldn’t you recover faster? As for suggested netflix shows, i haven’t seen it but many rave about the Michael Jordan documentary.
Agree. One of the best things I’ve watched this year , and I’ve never watched a basketball match ever
@@Petitkaramela that’s cool! I’ll definitely check it out for sure
Hey Nimbob! Loved this video! You were talking and doing your skin care while I was here painting my nails... it really felt like a girls night! Much love from Brazil! ❤❤
You feel so much more real and comfortable in this video and I love it, thank you for showing up in whatever mood or form of yourself you feel like showing up in. We love and hold space for it all
Schitt’s Creek! It’s a lighthearted and sweet show, and episodes are only 25 minutes. :) They won all the Emmys in their category this year! One of those shows that builds, and gets better as it progresses and you really get to know the characters.
I absolutely loved this video, especially the last part when you're chatting on your couch.
Also: "I kind of feel I've got a part of me back and I never knew I lost it." I know exactly what you mean. It took me longer, but I'm so happy now about having my other "me" back!!! ❤️
This is such a great video! It makes me feel so cosy and relaxed 🥰
I also appreciate the honest talk at the end and I feel sorry for those who feel you’re faking your happiness. It seems some people need to see someone struggling to feel good about themselves...
I can see you’re back to your roots and I couldn’t feel happier about it ♥️
Much love all the way up from South America 😘
One of my favorite videos. Praying for you. Thank you for the positivity you bring to my life!! Love your videos.
I was SO worried about the tub overflowing !! Thank goodness Niomi mentioned it so I could enjoy the rest of the talk !!
Me too, it’s when she was putting her mask on chatting away. I kept thinking the bath... the bath 😂😂
Simple videos really give a sneak peak into the real person that doesn't really show during well-lit, sit down videos. I really like this tone. 😊 Just refreshing like hanging out with you.
Thank you so much for sharing this and being so vulnurable with us, it feels very special and genuine ❤️ one of My fave videos you have ever done, in the maaaaaany years I have been following you!
Love your energy in this video Niomi, I feel like I can see that part of you that you've found again. She's fun and confident and relaxed. I love it, and I love the fact that you seem to be genuinly happy. That's all we want 🥰
Btw, unplanned videos are the absolute best! This felt like a combination of having a night in with your friend and watching an inspiring and relaxing video!
Tv recs - “This is Us” and “Brooklyn Nine Nine”. Both are incredible shows and will make you laugh and cry and also feel so nice 💗
Sending you lots of love Niomi ✨
This Is Us is my favourite ever, new season soon!!
I love This Is Us! I cry nearly every episode, but it is the best show
Such a beautiful relaxing video. You truly are inspirational Niomi. I’ve been watching since your first video, usually a silent watcher but I’ve never been very kind to myself and you have inspired me to explore self love and work out what makes me happy! So Thank you 💖
I loved this life update video so much ! So pure and honest thank you Niomi 💛 Nice to see you’re doing great !
It's so amazing seeing so genuinely happy. You're such a great person niomi and deserve this peace and sense of worthiness ❤❤
When I split with my ex there were hard days and good days and days I just felt incredible and within weeks even though it was a very very long relationship I felt good. I think when something stops working and you have the strength to leave that situation and you leave on good terms its not the soul destroying experience everyone expects a break up to be
Gilmore Girls is a perfect cosy show! And I just wanted to say this is one of my favourite videos you have done, it was so real and honest and I love that!
I love Gilmore Girls! any other recommendations? :)
Loved this video Niomi. So lovely to hear you’ve got a part of you back. Sending you lots of love x
The second I started this video, I immediately felt much calmer ❤️ thank you Niomi! Sending you my love!
I think it’s so weird for people to message those things to you. I mean we all move at different paces. But also I think you have been honest in terms of how you’ve focused on yourself and also you have also mentioned how some days you’ve had down moments. I think seeing you go through it all is inspirational as well as just a loving person. Also loved this « random » video 🤍✨
I stopped watching your videos for a while and didn’t realise why. I think it’s because you weren’t really yourself and I’m loving where you are right now and you just being so real. Sometimes you have to find yourself again ❤️
Thank you for being vulnerable with us and genuine. I empathize the same with how you've been through and it's so lovely to connect and feel the same way when dealing with comments and post-relationship situations. Love these lovely vlogs and updates, would love to see more :-) thank you for sharing! Keep staying happy and true to yourself! xx
I'm so happy for you and I just want to hug you!! So proud of everything you've been doing lately.
Also, this video is one of my favorites of you now so keep doing them! We like the raw footage.
Not a series but girlll Eat pray love is the movie for you ... it’s one movie that I can watch any time any day and something tells me u will really really resonate with it right now ❤️ love light & positivity to u niomi
One of the word movies I’ve seen. So boring
The book is amazing!
