Before covid happened, I was in such a good place. I was losing weight, eating healthy, exercising and feeling great. Then covid hit us. We went into lockdown, i lost my Mom to covid and I went into a deep depression. Gained tons of weight, eating bad etc. I've been trying very hard to dig myself out. Your video today and several others are helping me with ideas on things I can do. Thank you
So sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. I’ve noticed with myself, in life when I have gone through a particularly rough spot, as I slowly pull out of it, I’m changed a bit, for the better, because I’ve gained some insight. When it’s hard, I tell myself to just focus on putting one foot in front of the other and step by step, progress happens. Take care. 🌿
I have a similar story in terns of doing well pre pandemic then not during the pandemic, but mine ended up being the social isolation. I hope you find your way to a good place again!
My best habit/routine is to have a reminder/gentle sounding alarm each evening that tells me "get ready for bed". When I hear it, I go brush my teeth (brushing my teeth in the evening for some reason is the most difficult thing to make myself do). After that I go through my apartment and tidy up: pick up any bits that are out of place and put them back, wash any remaining dishes, wipe down counters in the kitchen, put to soak any legumes/grains that I plan to cook with next day, etc. While I do this I also air out my bedroom. The whole thing takes maybe 15 minutes but makes such a difference. I find it relaxing and meditative, so it also helps me wind down before bed. Additionally, I set the time for this alarm a little early, so once I'm done with this routine I have time to read before sleep.
That's a great idea, I'm going to try that! I'm using alarms for remembering to take meds and it's incredibly effective, especially when days are always different.
I totally get it,dealing with both physical pain and mental health issues. It's funny,as a retired Dental Hygienist, I still always brush and floss. Even if everything else goes out the door.
Thank you for filming a "daily habits" video that looks real and honest. Especially the part where you talked about getting anxious and not being able to do basic things like showering of doing your skincare. I've been there, so I really appreciate it.
I read somewhere that showers can actually be really triggering for people with sensory issues. When my mental health is low I tend to notice that having a shower takes a lot of extra effort and this explanation really made sense to me. There are multiple changes in temperatures, it can be loud, it impairs your sight (momentarily) and depending on the products you use the fragrance can be overwhelming. I normally wouldn’t categorize myself as someone with sensory issues but when my anxiety is high I definitely feel like these things impact me more than they normally would.
Thank you for sharing your daily routine with us. I find that having music playing all the time facilitates a chaotic mind. I like periods of silence which helps to gather my thoughts, especially at breakfast time. 😘
Madeleine this is a wonderful video. I quite enjoy your videos. But I particularly loved this one. You are speaking truth for me and I presume so many women all over the world! Thanks for your encouragement! 🇨🇦
Lovely vid and advice! My biggest change recently was going for a walk in the morning, when I work at home or part time. I have to walk a certain amount of time every day for health reasons and it actually feels nice, especially when the sun is out.
Turmeric is a great anti-inflammatory! And the black pepper helps with absorption, so if you repurchase, you should look for one that includes it. I've been taking turmeric for a few years and I can seriously vouch for it. It's one of those that you may not notice at work, but the second you take it away, you feel it!! I've had joint issues, gut issues, etc. and I find it really does help ease a lot of those day-to-day symptoms.
@hibernia89 I take 2-3 depending on the brand & dosage and how I'm feeling that day. My current one is 500 mg per pill, so I usually take two! I'd say go with whatever dosage is recommended on the bottle and then take more if you need it 😊
I found your channel just awhile ago and love it. I have been watching all of your videos. You and Alex are very engaging in your conversations with your viewers. I just love, love your new home and that you both do much of the work yourself. I am glad that people are recognizing depression and anxiety, but when I was young, I am 71 now, I didn't have the help that is available to people today. Sharing things about your life is very brave and I admire that you do it so well and thoughtfully. Having been raised by a English mum (I am Canadian) I envy your home and how you have the nicest kitchen. My dream was to live in England, but as most of my immediate family live here, would be too hard, so I just visit when I can. I am starting to use some of your receipts. Always look forward to your channel.
I know exactly what you mean. I've been trying to tidy as I go too. I always feel like I'm rushing and not being mindful about these everyday activities, which adds to the messiness! Slowing down, taking time makes me feel so much better!xx
I agree that attaching one habit to another is so helpful. I'm really proud of myself for sticking to the habit of doing a 5 minute meditation every morning while I wait for my tea to brew. I've tried many times to stick to a meditation schedule but I would always stop after a while. Meditating in a time slot that was otherwise wasted doing other stuff (like being on my phone) I'm now using productively :)
Watching your routine and how much peace it has brought you definitely inspires me to get back to mine. As you said it's so easy to let these things slip when we aren't feeling mentally well but they are the very same things that will make us feel better...the humour of life lol. I appreciate your healthy approach to mastering one routine at a time before you move on to something else like reading as you mentioned. Feels much more approachable and sustainable. :)
Im the same with self care. One of my best hacks is using google home routines to remind me of when to shower, when to clean up, how long to brush my teeth etc. I have ADHD and after my meds ware off its so hard to remember to do anything for myself; so google reminding me (along with motivational messages I've set up) is extremely helpful!
This video seems so honest and I think you look sooo healthy and happy. I’m gonna try the “no phone zone” because I’m currently in bed, with my phone, wanting to read more. Thank you for this video!
my list of good habits - extending my news cycle back to 24 hours (i only read the news once a day at the same time every day) - limited shortform media (i don’t scroll tiktoks, reels or shorts- longform articles and youtube videos/ted talks only) - digitizing important docs as soon as i receive them (no lingering around in file cabinets or junk drawers of doom) my next goal is probably getting my screen time down to 6 hours a day (i’m currently at 8 hours yeeeesh)
Couldn't agree more about forgetting things when not in view! I also find I eat so much more fruit (like strawberries etc) if I wash and prepare them to store in the fridge as soon as I get I back from the shop. I definitely rely a lot on visual cues and convenience ☺️
Great video as always ☺️. I too am a member of the “stop washing club”. It’s easy to prioritise other people basic needs over my own. I have to remind myself how much better I will feel after a shower to make sure I do it
Lovely video! I think in terms of habits, the biggest one for me has been exercising fairly consistently (3-4x/wk). It’s funny, but after the first month or two I really notice when I don’t take that time for myself, even if it’s just a 10min yoga video it makes all the difference in how I feel. Thank you for all your hard work! 🇨🇦
I'm the same with the neglecting. Myself when I'm anxious 😒 it's a real effort just to brush my hair. I know I feel so much better when I make the effort but it sometimes seems too much.xx
Even though it is hardest to get motivated on those days, I find, on the days I feel down, it nourishes my soul if I do yoga and tidy the house, take a shower, such things. Sometimes I am in full cleaning mode and just whiz through the house, but on down days, I just take my time with it and find it very relaxing. Even tough I am not generally a tidy person.
Thank you Maddie for sharing your day and time with us. I'm trying to be more mindful of my eating. I also do a few exercises in the morning in my livingroom. Hugs and love ❤
Two minutes in and just wanted to say I have started using Tone and Sculpt since you recommended it a few videos back and I love it! I was paying $20 a week for a similar app through a trainer and it was glitchy as, switched to tone and sculpt I am saving waaaaaay more money and going to the gym even more! Feeling stronger everyday. Love it! Thanks Maddie. Back to the video 💜
Love this honest and raw vlog of your day! Amazing! My healthy habit this year has been no procastination! I have been studying Monday to Friday, off weekends, time blocking my routine of getting up making breakfast early and having a slow mindful time eating it. Making peppermint tea ready for me to study (it is a reminder that its time to study). Then afterwards taking time to give myself my instant reward for studying. I use stickers as well in my study journal to show progress xD i have been not using phone before bed and either read or if i am sleepy i will just go to sleep. Drinking 2 refills of timed water bottle a day, too. I am currently working on eating healthier and snacking less :)
I'm so glad you spoke about this! I love setting timers and saying I'll get as much done as I've set it for. If I set a timer for about 5 minutes in the evening I will wash my face and brush my teeth and it makes me feel so much better 💕 just a hack that's helped me in hard places
As I look at your cabinet doors that you said don't fully close, I feel your pain. We had a new floor installed a few months ago, and already three tiles have cracked. So frustrating! Despite that, your kitchen looks gorgeous and I appreciate this video about healthy habits. Thanks so much.
Turmeric and black pepper are anti inflammatory. The black pepper helps absorbtion of the active ingredient curcumen in turmeric. Also used as a natural antibiotics in iovedic techniques. Hence its good for active or prevents infection. Magic gold. Thank you for a wonderful video again. I look forward to your upload. I like how you keep it real. When you are low it is easy to let hygiene go. Small simple steps can help lift your mind set. ❤️
Thank you so much for making this video, especially when self care and hygiene go out the window, it's an achievement just getting out of bed xxxx thank you for this xxx
Girl, I get you, even sometimes changing my clothes is hard when I'm feeling down. I'm really excited about my new gym though, I looked for one that has a real sense of community, and in so looking forward to it
Ive been trying to eat better and i have your books and now each week i look on your website and love using your recipes! They are so amazing I did the kfc style burger the other day and even my meat eating friends said it tasted amazing! Its lush watching you as your so human and make us feel normal when we struggle but we can achieve too ❤️
Turmeric is an amazing anti inflammatory, so good for overall health. It’s absorbed better with black pepper, that’s why you usually get them together in a supplement. Also has anti cancer effect.. can’t go wrong with it! It’s amazing! 😍😍
Cutting out gluten was also the best thing I’ve ever done as well. My digestion and my lymphatic system has been helped so much by doing so. I recommend getting a gut health test and a test if you’re sensitive to gluten.
If I don’t have something immediately in site, I will never remember I even have that thing. Also hygiene for me is super rough, I will physically not want to get wet, or get undressed to shower. Definitely always a win!
Turmeric is good for inflammation, heart health and a few other things. You should try a turmeric latte. I like mine made with coconut milk. Fab vlog btw.
We can't do everything every day. So I like to think of my weeks wholistically. I want to read not everyday, but for at least a block of time one of the days, etc.
Make no mistake, people with TOO much time have as much trouble organizing. As a retiree who can put things off without much in the way of consequences,it's so difficult to stay organized and consistently productive.
Hi Madeleine, you probably said about it in some other videos but I might have missed it so if you could tell me where tap in the kitchen is from I would be really grateful xxx
I'm at the 12min mark. Your porridge bowl looks delicious. But do you ever eat just straight out of the pot? Yours of course is a bit big, I have a small one that I make porridge in, so at the end I just add the toppings and save myself from cleaning two dishes :) but that of course is not very "instagramable" :)
I think many people get it with the hygiene. It’s a double edged sword…you don’t hop in the shower bc it takes too much energy but not showering makes you feel worse.
here in malaysia even at my worst executive dysfunction i usually have to shower because its so hot 😂 but i remember when i did uni in the UK, the showers were the FIRST thing to go when exec dysfunction kicked in.
I wonder if you’re struggling to read, that perhaps you aren’t reading for enjoyment? I enjoy a good historical romance when I need to check out and calm down. What do you enjoy reading instead of what you think you ‘should’ be reading? Those readings were beautiful, the second applies to me at 57. Acceptance and being rather than doing❤️✨
Hi there, you can definitely tell you've been sticking with it! you lost some weight and definitely toned up you look wonderful! Very inspiring! Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer, and it's also an immune booster or modulator. I take it to the pepper actually helps it become more bioavailable to your body for processing.
Definitely the kind of content I needed right now! I’m awful at taking supplements🥴so have had to leave them out on the side to remind me every day. I’m also trying to get back into some regular exercise so it’s wonderful to hear how much you’re enjoying it - it’s very inspiring! Also, it’s pronounced Jordan rah-kai- he’s sooo amazing, one of my biggest inspirations! When you were playing ‘Alright’ doing your skincare I immediately added it back to my Spotify playlist! He’s insanely good x
Another fantastic video with the habits and routines Madeleine has implemented in her life. The food is yummy 😋 and yes it is important to take your supplements. Turmeric has antivirus abilities so it may help prevent colds, flu ( which are all related to the COVID pandemic so it might even prevent COVID) Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Madeleine & Alex.
On the topic of reading- I’m currently into “Call me by your name” on leena norms recommendation and it’s beautiful. Perhaps I should try hearticulations next The peaceful shots of the countryside and your gorgeous pets and cottage are so calming to me. I live in nyc and love it here but dream of a future home in a cozy town/village
Thank you so so much for this video olivia because it is very important for us you are my inspiration you’re looking too gorgeous and I wish you reach 600K Subscribers very very soon!♥️✨🥺💕🙈💫🥰😊

Youre doing so well gorgeous ! Keep going - you’ve got this 💗💗 goodluck on your journey xoxo
I feel the same way! When I'm depressed I don't have the strength to take care of me... On those days eve take a shower is a victory!
It’s easily the first thing to slip sadly!
My best habit/routine is to have a reminder/gentle sounding alarm each evening that tells me "get ready for bed". When I hear it, I go brush my teeth (brushing my teeth in the evening for some reason is the most difficult thing to make myself do). After that I go through my apartment and tidy up: pick up any bits that are out of place and put them back, wash any remaining dishes, wipe down counters in the kitchen, put to soak any legumes/grains that I plan to cook with next day, etc. While I do this I also air out my bedroom.

That's a great idea, I'm going to try that! I'm using alarms for remembering to take meds and it's incredibly effective, especially when days are always different.
I have the exact same thing with hygiene just going totally out the window when depression kicks in! Difficult for others to understand apparently :/
Yeah it’s sad that there is stigma around it. Similarly with people thinking you’re lazy! Mental health is largely to answer!
I totally get it,dealing with both physical pain and mental health issues. It's funny,as a retired Dental Hygienist, I still always brush and floss. Even if everything else goes out the door.

@@MadeleineOlivia turmeric is Soo good for many things. Also look into golden milk to make at night time.

True.. its also great for overall cell health

Im the same Maddi, I can go days without showering when Im in a low emotional state. 🥰 love your videos. So beautiful and grounding. Xx
"Your basic needs go out the window" It me. You've just reminded me I've forgotten 3 days in a row that I'm overdue a shower. Cheers!

my list of good habits

- limited shortform media (i don’t scroll tiktoks, reels or shorts- longform articles and youtube videos/ted talks only)
- digitizing important docs as soon as i receive them (no lingering around in file cabinets or junk drawers of doom)
my next goal is probably getting my screen time down to 6 hours a day (i’m currently at 8 hours yeeeesh)
What a lovely life you have , my life at the moment is exhausting, its nice to watch this pace of living x
Couldn't agree more about forgetting things when not in view! I also find I eat so much more fruit (like strawberries etc) if I wash and prepare them to store in the fridge as soon as I get I back from the shop. I definitely rely a lot on visual cues and convenience ☺️
Yes! Goals/healthy habits need to be manageable and not unrealistic if we want to stick with t them!
Exactly!

lovely video, and relatable too! also your makeup always looks so pretty and somehow fresh?? I love it!
Your hair looks great!! Love your videos
You're glowing! These habits obviously really work for you 💪🏻
Your skin is glowing! Wow wow wow

like your ruteen/an that is a great breakfast/you look very healthy/thanks much
Hey! Can you please list the skincare and makeup products that you used? I struggle to find good quality vegan skincare. Thank you so much 🥰
Turmeric is good for inflammation, heart health and a few other things. You should try a turmeric latte. I like mine made with coconut milk. Fab vlog btw.
I love a turmeric latte when I’m out! I definitely should try making one at home
Hi Madeleine we popped over from Devon on hols in your county, in tintagel, relaxing on our last night away, thanks 😊
Enjoyed watching this video👍
We can't do everything every day. So I like to think of my weeks wholistically. I want to read not everyday, but for at least a block of time one of the days, etc.
Love ur vids. Ur hair looks great like that. Thanx for sharing
Make no mistake, people with TOO much time have as much trouble organizing. As a retiree who can put things off without much in the way of consequences,it's so difficult to stay organized and consistently productive.
Hi Madeleine, you probably said about it in some other videos but I might have missed it so if you could tell me where tap in the kitchen is from I would be really grateful xxx
I'm at the 12min mark. Your porridge bowl looks delicious. But do you ever eat just straight out of the pot? Yours of course is a bit big, I have a small one that I make porridge in, so at the end I just add the toppings and save myself from cleaning two dishes :) but that of course is not very "instagramable" :)
Turmeric has lots of antibodies and is a good anti inflammatory agent.
House proud, was a huge wake up call for me.
I think many people get it with the hygiene. It’s a double edged sword…you don’t hop in the shower bc it takes too much energy but not showering makes you feel worse.
Do you have info about sustainable and cruelty free makeup in the UK? Just wondered 🙂
here in malaysia even at my worst executive dysfunction i usually have to shower because its so hot 😂 but i remember when i did uni in the UK, the showers were the FIRST thing to go when exec dysfunction kicked in.
Is tap water safe to drink in UK? Genuinely curious ..or do you have a filter in yours?
♥️ loved your video!

Hi there, you can definitely tell you've been sticking with it! you lost some weight and definitely toned up you look wonderful! Very inspiring! Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer, and it's also an immune booster or modulator. I take it to the pepper actually helps it become more bioavailable to your body for processing.

I’m also trying to get back into some regular exercise so it’s wonderful to hear how much you’re enjoying it - it’s very inspiring!
Also, it’s pronounced Jordan rah-kai- he’s sooo amazing, one of my biggest inspirations! When you were playing ‘Alright’ doing your skincare I immediately added it back to my Spotify playlist! He’s insanely good x
Love your videos, Madeleine ✨

loooveeeeee 💗💗💗
Another fantastic video with the habits and routines Madeleine has implemented in her life. The food is yummy 😋 and yes it is important to take your supplements. Turmeric has antivirus abilities so it may help prevent colds, flu ( which are all related to the COVID pandemic so it might even prevent COVID) Love 🥰 the video and love 💞 Madeleine & Alex.
Just a heads-up, maple syrup should be stored in the fridge 😊 (I only learnt this recently😆).
