This is so what I needed. It’s extremely easy to sleep the day off, watch media until my eyes hurt, and just consume and feel horrible at the end of the day. I definitely need to set my quarantine system so I won’t wast the day away and give depth to my time...love that point! Looking forward for more of your content!
Hey Rowena, being in quarantine all day has left me really sad and alone and since coming across your channel I can say that I can see a glimpse of light at the end of this tunnel. I watch your videos probably every night😅. I’ve read some of the books you’ve recommended like atomic habits, omg LOVED. Just thank you, it’s gonna take a while before I can say I’m happy but, believe me when I say you’re helping me get there.💖 1% better
That's okay to watch RUclips and play Animal Crossing - don't punish yourself for it. Instead, I recommend scheduling in time to fully enjoy those activities in your day so you can also achieve your productivity goals too. Remember to never shame yourself for your productivity levels... they will waiver, particularly in this hard time. :) Good luck my dear!
This video just came right into my need! I'm having trouble confronting my feelings and thoughts again, and this came like an answer from Heaven 🤧 Thank you Rowena 💖 I hope you're doing great!
Yes! Love this. 🙌 Self-care is my JAM! I coach a lot of clients through developing and prioritizing their self-care routines and the main thing I see is that the more drained, burnt out, anxious, tired, or depressed you are, the less energy you have to do the things that will make you feel better. Just like anything else, it gains momentum and can feel impossible to do what will help us feel better - even if we WANT to. It's important to remember that: A) It doesn’t have to be long and involved. It just has to be healthy. B) It doesn’t have to look like we’re told self-care looks. It just has to leave us feeling a bit better than when we started. C) There are plenty of options. We have to focus on doing the things that’ll help you move the needle - even just a little bit.
Things are bit crazy right now and it can be so overwhelming to figure out where to start, so I want to add to this by sharing this video I did on 30 self-care ideas that can be done in 60 seconds or less, and/or take hardly any energy at all to get started to help anyone watching that may need support start moving the needle! ❤ ruclips.net/video/EH6XG82RE5E/видео.html
I love that you keep reminding us to embrace stillness. It's something I tend to rarely do but when I do it, it reminds me of how good it is to just take the time to sit in peace.
It's adorable how she calls Saeroyi "Mr. Chestnut Head." 😂 It's such a good show! But seriously, thank you for your wisdom and positivity, Rowena. It's so reassuring and helpful it this hard time. YOU are the sweetest of all sweet potatoes!! 🥰
Hi Rowena love your videos! I’ve been trying to optimize my time as much as possible while working from home but also trying to find balance and re-creating my habits ❤️ stay safe everyone and stay home if possible
I love you Rowena.Am from Kenya and every morning the first thing before I do anything at my work place I check your videos even if it means repeating them for the tenth time.You are my source of inspiration in so many ways and I wanna start a RUclips channel.Inspired by you don't forget.😍😍 Be safe 😘😘
Had been keeping low and ro's video was just exactly what I needed right now , I cannot even emphasize enough on how much I needed this, gonna re watch and gonna note down things, thanks ro, you're so beautiful
Hiii love ya lots! I got your bracelet in November and my mom really wanted one but it was sold out for a bit, but I just got an email saying they restocked and I got her the set, I’ve been wearing mine everyday since I got it, so getting her the set was a no brainer! Thank you for being such an inspiration, thank you for these amazing videos, and thank you for being you! 사랑해요 ❤️
Your videos make me fw uplifted, definitely 💙💫 btw I got super surprised when you sat in a full lotus position at 12:31. It's extremely difficult to do, kudos to you. I practice Vedic meditation and yoga techniques daily, like pranayam and surya namaskar. Watching your video, I feel like trying some Japanese techniques too. Do you have any tips or suggestions? 💙💫🙏
I’ve been thinking recently that since we all have so much time on our hands, we need to be wayy more conscious of what we spend that time on and what we consume and your videos will always be something I spend time on and consume!! I don’t know you personally but every time I’m feeling unmotivated or in a rut, I turn to your videos! So thank you!! Keep it up, Rowena!! ❤️❤️
Hi, Rowena! Love from Korea 💝I've watched as soon as I started my morning routine for today, and it really made my day!! Thank you for the great vid!! (btw, just wondered how you are so good at Korean. Did I miss some vid? T.T)
Haiii and good day:) Happy Saturday:)...had stumbled onto your yt(...and I'm so glad I did:) ...had just subscribed:) Have a super great weekend and stay safe and sound out there:)
love you so much rowena this video brings me so much happiness, thank you for posting this comes at a time when everyone needs a little tsai wisdom (tsaidom??) 👌👌
How old are you?;) I’m just so happy I found someone as gorgeous and as productive:) I’m pretty much a success driven girl myself and I aspire to be like you ^^ thank youu
I really love the concept and aesthetic of Uruoi but I can't find any information about whether it is cruelty free which means it probably is not....Which is really too bad...
Hey Rowena! I'm so into your YT channel. It's so inspiring. I just started watching your vids few weeks ago. Now, I decided to went back to my daily journaling tho I decided not to have one this year because I thought Im gotta be so busy this year. And I realized that it's all about time mgt and commitment to your proposed system. (Just started my first work. I just graduated last year and at the same time hurdled my board exam. #thankful and #blessed) Btw, your vids gave spark to me to maximize this time by learning more and invest to self improvement. :) You're such an inspiration Eonni. ☺️
I hope you are doing well in NYC. I heard many bad news about how Covid-19 is spreading there. You are one of sources of happiness on the internet. I am waiting for your next videos :)
Sometimes I wish you were my sister... Coz my doesn't likes me..i mean she hates me..whenever I bullet journal about self care or something she would just poke me about it and tease me about that...she would also read my brain dump dairy and again tease me and tell everyone about what I wrote..she make me feel truly unwanted and not loved.. Sometimes I just wish I wasn't born but then Rowena helps me. 🙏
Have you considered incorporating book summary videos onto your channel? There are already channels dedicated to them, but I really like the way you present information.
My mom and I are learning for the first time what it means to practice self-care, to not judge ourselves for our struggles, and to find ways to move on from our traumas and build bigger, better, fuller lives for ourselves. She and I have struggled for years to find a decent therapist that might teach us these concepts, but the area we're in makes it difficult to find someone both reputable and affordable. These videos have really helped me personally, but they've also helped me present these ideas to my mom, who has been struggling for much longer than I have. Sometimes the thought of accepting even the "bad" emotions can seem radical to her, but I think this really helps get the message of balance across. So even though this is a bit of an old video, thank you Ro, for helping us learn and grow. I can't tell you how much it means to us.
Hey Rowena, how are you, could you please make a video about how many audiobooks you listen to per month and how many hours per day and how audioboks changed your life and which are you favorite audiobooks, that would be great :) i wish you a great day and sending you positive vips form Germany :)
Apatheia which you straggled to read is a Greek word it means you don't have the desire on something or generally when you dislike something . It's seperated as A + pathos .. pathos means desire ( I'm from Greece)
So idealistic...but is not my reality. My living space is above our dog kennels to where we use this warehouse as our training facility. Employees are in and out, dogs are constantly barking and all the cleaning I do is constantly messed up. All I can truly have is a sense of gratitude that business is still good. But peace? A laughable concept.
Hi Rowena. Just wanted to say your videos are really calming. During the quarantine I have been sitting with my emotions which I would have otherwise ignored in the past and it's not easy. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. They are like little sparks of inspiration and motivation to keep doing the mundane tasks even when you just don't want to get up from the bed the whole day. I hope you stay safe and healthy. Lots of virtual hugs x
Every day is a new opportunity to reinvent ourselves. Our past does not define us. It is not who we are. It is our attachment to it that makes us suffer. We can create a new story. Every day we have a new opportunity to become our greatest version and this starts with self-care and giving our mind, body, and spirit what it needs-love.
I have a question . Are you half Chinese and half korean cause on another video of yours you spoke Chinese with your mom and on this one too but in this video you said "thank you for the meal " or something like that before eating breakfast which is in korean .

Honey Bri 1% better is still better 💖 *virtual hug 🤗 * to you
Thank you💖
I’ve been reading atomic habits too!! Thanks to Rowena. 1% is all it takes. Each and every moment.
Who puts you in a good mood?
Rowena Tsai, of course!
Being called sweetest potatoes, I can see how
I love that you're videoing your "normal" human things and routines. There's something very endearing and adorable about it.
All I’ve been doing on quarantine is watch RUclips and play animal crossing, hopefully I can start to be more productive and healthy :(
Animal crossing is a fun way to relax too
Being healthy is the most important thing ^^ Productivity will come and go
Angel I’m sure you’ll do better. Rest is really important. I just created a video about this too.
That's okay to watch RUclips and play Animal Crossing - don't punish yourself for it. Instead, I recommend scheduling in time to fully enjoy those activities in your day so you can also achieve your productivity goals too. Remember to never shame yourself for your productivity levels... they will waiver, particularly in this hard time. :) Good luck my dear!
larajay i loved it
Sticking to my schedules and systems is really keeping me sane, and your video on creating systems was really helpful.
Thandi's Online that video was soooo helpful!! It also inspired my last one.
This video just came right into my need! I'm having trouble confronting my feelings and thoughts again, and this came like an answer from Heaven 🤧 Thank you Rowena 💖 I hope you're doing great!
Rowena, I feel your peace through the practice of stillness. Thanks for being you
“A certain darkness is needed to see the stars “ that line hit me ✨

It's adorable how she calls Saeroyi "Mr. Chestnut Head." 😂 It's such a good show!
But seriously, thank you for your wisdom and positivity, Rowena. It's so reassuring and helpful it this hard time. YOU are the sweetest of all sweet potatoes!! 🥰

You're radiating with positive vibes. The way you handle yourself is such an inspiration. You gave me hope.
It’s the end of May 2021. This video is still relevant. Thank you, Rowena!
Glad you watched Itaewon Class! Such an eye opening series 💟
I really needed this video. Thank you, Rowena!

Why can't American shows/films have as much depth and substance and meaning as these Korean dramas you reference? 😭

I really love your content. I learned a lot. I keep notes also. Be safe! From Phiippines.

Am I the only one listening to her as background music because her audios are seriously so calming and motivating!!!
Was that an asparagus flower on the desk? 🌸
If any of you are missing your RMT, I have self care videos on my channel to help with aches and pains!!
I love your pajamas, seriously where do you buy them? I love you, thank you for all your wise words! You have really helped me so thank you very much!
I am going to try the Japanese beauty because why not.
Awesome video. I love the positive vibes and constructive advice🙏i always get inspired!

This was so lovely, and just what I needed to hear... Thank you very much
is it just me or does her side profile look a lot like Shin Hye-Sun's (from Angel's last mission love)?
What are the motions you do while you meditate? Will you make a video about it at some point? This video was amazing btw thank you so much!
All this comforted me in a way😭 thank youuu ❤❤❤ much love
really need these videos during quarantine. thanks for your content!!
this is such a sweet and helpful video!!!! thank you so much💖💖
you should check out discord for watching movies with friends!
I have a question . Are you half Chinese and half korean cause on another video of yours you spoke Chinese with your mom and on this one too but in this video you said "thank you for the meal " or something like that before eating breakfast which is in korean .
Where can I get those shark pjs i'm absolutely in love; having a shark onesie is not enough
I love how she is that typical asian sweet girl like me, I've always been in bad state of loving myself and what does loving yourself really mean
Omg where is that bed/couch/futon looking thing from?!
Coming to your channel & taking a little time away from the worries of the world helps me tremendously. 🙏🏽 thank you so much
It does look like an asparagus! I thought that from the beginning of the video 😂
wait. is she korean????
best way to start my morning, with rowena’s life lessons 😅♥️
Awwww I love this video so much! Just gained a new subbieee!! 🤍💫🧿
I think your apartment is such a huge space for one person. pardon me for oot q :"))
What is the kind of process you carried out at the end of the video? Was it a way of meditation? What is it called?
HIII!!! SO PERFECT FOR THE MORNING!!! (NOTIF SQUAD HERE)
i am starting to get addicted to your videos. thank you for helping and motivating a potato like me.
People with tinnitus: quiet is not peaceful in any way quiet is very loud
