I'm glad you've been enjoying lovely writing. And I like the idea of peaceful reflections and intentions. Oh wow, it's amazing that you read more on 157! I did a read less goal last year and it was really lovely. I also find it so nice to mix between frontlist and backlist reading as well. I like the rewards system you have in place. Looking forward to following your channel some more this year x
Looooove this, yes to healing and resting in the dark cold winter! Your TBR challenge sounds like a really fun way to prioritise those older books. I didnt watch YT over the festive period so I have a few of yours in my watch later to visit which will be a lovely treat as they're always soothing and reflective, perfect for winter watching 😊
I completely agree on quiet writing being beautiful. I too have always found it weird that people would have a new beginning in winter. Our new year (persian) is with the spring equinox which feels more like a beginning. But even then, i think you said it best : "gentle intention setting" works much better for me than ambitious goal setting.
It certainly feels counter intuitive to be trying to make drastic changes this time of year. I love the idea of aligning with the spring equinox! Let’s aim for that to be our ‘fresh start’ and in the meantime, gentle intentions will have to do! Thank you so much for watching. ♥️
Your vlogs are my favourite videos too, so I look forward to those, alongside all your reading and adventures over the coming year. Here’s to a wonderful 2025!
Thank you Joy! I’m working on a vlog at the moment so will hopefully have that to share soon. Looking forward to sharing our reading again this year. ♥️
Yesss! Gentle intentions for the win. I hear you about mirroring nature with our energy. 60-70 hours?!! What did you even do?!! Do you live in Wales? I love vlogs! ❤🎉
Loving your gentle videos. I guess you are welsh, as am I,(well half), from Carmarthen area,now from Ontario, Canada. I think you are doing a great job and looking forward to this year’s episodes.
That’s so cool! My cousin has moved to Canada and my partners Uncle lives there too. Wondering about the Welsh/Canadian expat links! Thank you for your kindness and for watching ♥️
It's so easy to be overwhelmed by tbr.s (books) & tbv.s (BookTube), isn't it? It's a pickle. I am very keen to follow your Welsh reading plans, this sounds great, lots of new reading paths. Happy reading in '25.

You’re so kind Sophie! 🥰 Hope you’ve had a gentle start to the year. ♥️

It feels cruel and unusual to make drastic life changes this time of year!

i'm trying to read more from my shelves too!
Right, let’s hold each other accountable (by that I mostly mean encourage each other to make exceptions and treat ourselves to books!)

Do you live in Wales?
I love vlogs! ❤🎉
Ha yes. It was wild times! I used to be a housemistress at a boarding school. Such a fun job but v hard work. And yes I’m in south wales 🏴
@@BookishAdventuresInWellbeing Wow wow wow! That sounds like a lot :o
Love this Keri! I'm also not one for new year new me... We forget that's it's middle of winter still. We're not supposed to be raring to go 😅
That’s why you are my people Kasia! Hope your start to 2025 has been gentle. ♥️
