I definitely feel you with being drained after social events. Take care everyone!
InstaBlaster
There's something so calming about watching someone work without any talking ... Hearing the birds sing while you made the flaxseed gel was just lovely! Sometimes it's nice when people credit you with enough intelligence to know what's going on without having to narrate everything. Although your voice is really soothing anyway!
I can totally relate to the need for stillness after activity. I have yet to meet a man who will understand and accept this, so I have been single for a long time. But I know now not to attempt to compromise this part of me. It's an absolute need if I am going to be my best self.
I'm also an avid bookworm, reading brings so much joy (though also annoys my mother when I carry on about whatever I am reading for like 20 minutes, like trapped in the car with me yesterday while I carried on about The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by Kate Moore for most of the car ride), a hot bath is also soothing, I like to bake a lot, I crochet
I am exactly the same when I'm with too many people, just need to get home to my own company x
One of my favorite things to do on weekends to relax and get inspired is to watch my favorite RUclipsrs! Thanks for being part of my journey toward being more sustainable personally and environmentally.
I’m a people person BUT I fully recognize my need to have time to myself... it’s like I need to put the world on hold so that I can sift through all the constant thoughts, ideas, and plans that are whirring around in my brain like laundry in the spin cycle of a washing machine. Other things that make me a better person are cuddling a living being for a few minutes everyday, yoyoing to great music (very creative and relaxing), and like you, Immy, I indulge myself in reading, walking, an uninterrupted cup of good java, and also for me... sewing. Loved this uplifting video and hearing about your flowstate activities and self-care moments. PS - no sweat about missing your Tuesday video (we all got by and we know that sometimes life just takes over.). PPS - Yes to “Atomic Habits” video please. PPPS - you’re looking fitter and stronger every month... you’re rocking it girl!!
Having long baths and delicious coffee, playing with my dogs, chilling out with myself... That's what I do every day... Some say I'm lazy... Well, turns out I'm just taking care of myself 😎
I always feel the need to retreat after being social. In fact I try to limit my social time to once a week. I’m not a hermit and don’t have a phobia just need alone quiet time often❤️🇨🇦
Another Canadian here who also loves quiet time ❤️🇨🇦
I replenish my resources by being alone (or with husband or best friend). Preparing food slowly is one of my self-care rituals too. Reading, definitely. Morning and evening cuddles with my husband. Loving my cat until he gets a good purr going. Taking care of hair, skin. Hot chocolate with soya milk. Getting enough sleep.
Yes please make a video about how to build structures that supports your goals! And yes, now after the burnout I have come to understand how draining social activities can be, or I have come to understand that I need time to process and digest it all! Because it isn't just draining I do get things things out from it but the more impressions the more fileing work for my brain afterwards. Take care!
I totally understand what you mean about being around people. Sometimes I need to just curl up and watch a movie, show or even RUclips. I do have to say that one of my biggest guilty pleasures as far as self care goes is goong out to eat. I love eating out but its not always the most economical. Also this might seem like a weird one but brushing my hair after I shower is just super relaxing for me. Great video! Love the different angles and perspectives you used! ✌❤🌎
If you want to make a much smaller batch you can use a mesh sachet and a small jar or shot glass half full of warm water and the gel forms in minutes. The process is very similar to making a nut-milk but without blending.
Your video is calming like an audio book not only your videos are helpful your voice is calm
Love a bath for a bit of self care! Also sometimes I like to do an interesting/new meal that either stretches me a bit or just makes me feel a bit fancy. Bonus points for doing it from the cupboard and not buying new ingredients!
Yes, please make a video on atomic habits!! Also this video was so pleasant! Self-care is a priority!!
Every week i have a me-tiime evening. Facemask, foothbath and a lovely movie or some zen music. It is something i enjoy and makes me relax in a busy life as a working mommy. I love to walk in the woods aswel, but i have to push myself a bit to go ( when i am there a love it).
I love this video! Self care is so important and thank you for sharing some things you do to take care of yourself! ❤️
Ocean Vuong on top of Madeleine Olivia's Minimal is the two sides of my personality meeting each other
this bathtub - my life goal
I would suggest Flaxseed and fenugreek. Fairyland cottage did a lovely hair mask video using the same thing. and she uses chickpea flour instead of shampoo for her hair. Not sure on that but I really want to try the hair mask recipe.
life is all about balance
Flaxseed gel is great and, if you want to make it last a bit longer, add grapeseed oil :)
Thanks Immy for sharing
So needed this today! 💕
Wonderful ideas
Where is that bathtub from, it's absolutely stunning!
This was so lovely! I love these sharing, conversational videos that let us get to know you better!
Creating systems to achieve goals >>>>>
I’m loving the videography with the clips here. That apartment where you’re reading and have the bath is amazing. Also, Ralph, is an angel. I resonated with all this so much, I want to go take a bath with a book and coffee and my dog(yea right) now.
I made homemade flaxseed gel for the first time a few wks ago and my hair is loving it!! I have dark, coarse wavy hair and the flaxseed gel is working wonderfully for me (in partnership with leave-in conditioner and curl cream). 😊
Yes please
I read for exactly the same reasons. Thankyou for a helpful video x
coffee is a form of self care for me too... i think that's why I became so addicted! :D
Really random but we just read little fires everywhere for our English class! Great read, and the show comes out on Hulu (tomorrow I think?) so I’m pumped! Anyway, thanks for the video!
Thank you for taking me along. Really enjoyed the Video! And yes please Video about atomic habits!
Atomic habits yeah. Tell us about it 🙏🏾
Flax gel can be used in massage as well, my partner and I really enjoy it.
Little Fires Everywhere is so good!
I keep my flaxseed gel in the freezer. (Freezer safe jar) And I scrap out a bit from the top let it thaw in the morning and use it that evening.
Is that you on your pfp? You look so whimsical and pretty !
Cottage core goals ♡
Great vid Immy, looking forward to seeing how the DIY gel works out 😍 also Rowena Tsai has loads of great videos on creating systems and building habits, based on the same book. If you're interested! X
I also love reading! A book tips: "The giver of stars" by Jojo Moyes. It is an absolute amazing book!!! It is one of the best book I have ever read!
Thank you so much for an opportunity to try skill share
Agree on the alone time!,,
a level student here !! much needed, thank u
Ah sending you lots of love and support. A levels are a tough time xx
I always wanted to learn to play piano. I think it's a super skill to have :)
Yes atomic habita pls 🙂
Thank you very much for this video. So needed for today.
You are so naturally beautiful
Love this video! I always struggle with being consistent with self care, a video about habits will be cool.
PS Sorry if my grammar is too bad i'm not a english speaker
Hey Maria, I am an English speaker, and sadly cannot speak any other languages except a bit of French (I am from western 🇨🇦 and we learn French in school). I just wanted to let you know that your grammar/English is excellent. I, too, am looking forward to a video on “Atomic Habits”. I hope you are having a great day.
@@marycharlebois6627 Thank you, you're so sweet ❤️. I get a little help from google traductor XD. I hope you're having a nice day too :)
I love people normalising being an introvert I've always been made to feel weird for not wanting to hang out with people and wanting to leave early. We call (when you want to be alone in silence) burrito time as we usually want to wrap up too. I read Quiet: the power of introverts that helped me
Dear, reading is no doubt very good, either to relax, to know more, to forget about ourselves for the minute, but it is really different from meditation which purpose is to actually quiet the mind and have no thoughts whatsoever. But sure it is not for everybody and that is ok 💖
I am not that knowledgeable about meditation but I try to do it every morning for 7 minutes. For me, being still is a bit of a challenge, but what I really struggle with is having no thoughts at all. I just can’t seem to isolate my brain from thoughts and/or ideas... maybe I just have a noisy mind.
@@marycharlebois6627 that is the challenge of all of us when meditating, but here is a beauty of it, to see that we are not our mind, but only an observer.
@@apartmentcopacabanario863 Well, those are very interesting words to ponder. Thanks for that, I like the concept of being an observer. Hope you are having a great day.
Omg I love being alone!! A need alone time every day or I go insane.
I want to start reading more, the next book I want to read is ‘man’s search for meaning’ by Viktor Frankl, if anyone has read it, how did you find it? Xx
Hi there, “Man’s Search for Meaning” is on my reading list too. Somewhere I came across a review of this book and... after tossing it around in my brain for a while I remembered that the review is right here on Immy’s channel. She gives it a thumbs up recommendation in the video “RLLW: Books, Podcasts, Drawing and MInnie Small” (26 Oct 2018). I hope this is helpful to you. Happy reading, and have a great weekend.
Thank you, Mary, I’m interested to see Immy’s review. I actually just got it on my Kindle, since my last post and I’m finding easy to read so far, although I’ve only read the preface. Happy reading and I hope you have a great weekend too 💕📚
@@136Jstar Hi again, I would be curious to know what you think of the book. It looks like a fairly quick read. If I recall correctly both Immy and her sister thought it was excellent. It’s 20 below here (🇨🇦) this morning so it’s going to be a good day for reading.
I’ve just finished it. I found it very interesting looking at the mental health aspect as well as it being an important historical document. It was very personal and traumatic to think what people went through in concentration camps. I did find a lot of his ideas around logo therapy very useful.
@@136Jstar Thanks for your feedback on the book. The libraries are all closed and I don’t own a Kindle or Kobo so before this massive world health crisis started I bought a bunch of books to read in the upcoming months. This book is one of them, I am really looking forward to reading it. I’ve enjoyed chatting with you about books. Stay safe.
What kind of dog is that? Maltese? He doesn't have tears stains!
oh please please tell me what kind of dog that is :) he's so sweet!
Is that you playing Yann Tiersen on the piano?
Yesss
@@SustainablyVegan 😍 Beautiful!
have you ever completed an introversion test? you seem to show lots of introverted traits including being tired after being with people
Oh i didnt know you have a dog
I really enjoy your videos. I just don't like the thumbnails, which are more naked than before...
