    So many of us are struggling with anxiety just now, particularly with the pandemic. I recently picked up crochet for mindfulness - to help with my anxiety - that’s how I found your wonderful videos. I’m guessing many of us here can sympathise. Certainly I can keep watching your existing videos for many months to come, so no need for you to feel pressure to produce more. Take good care of yourself and we’ll do our best to do likewise💕

    I am so touched and moved that you trust us, your fans and friends with this information. I understand your worry, I had some heavy anxiety for quite some time. What truly helped me was meditation and some breathing therapy. I am amazed how much it changed my life. I wish you all the best, and know your crochet family is here to support you in every way you need!! We love so many things about you the person! Excited to hear you are bringing another little angel into your life! Happy Yarning 🧶❤️

    You take care of yourself, stress and anxiety is an awful place to be but it’s good you’re putting out there. Keep taking some ‘me’ time! Love the crochet boxes and your videos thanks for all you do it helps keep us sane! ♥️

    It's been 5 years since I found your you tube channel and learnt to crochet by you and got the crochet bug because of your genuine enthusiasm and creative talent but making it available and clear to everyday ppl. Then seeing you grow as a person into a new world that I have experienced (as a mum to 2 beautiful girls 😊) with you having Ella and now little girl number 2 nearly here gives me reflection time and glimpses back to when I was at the beginning of parenthood and the feelings and emotions. My admiration, appreciation and awe of you and for you continues to grow ...it's so much more than the crochet journey I started on with you . ..and I can't thank you enough 🥰👏

    So good of you to talk about an issue that is too often not recognised as a serious mental and physical condition. My daughter has suffered with anxiety since her mid teens, some days are worse than others, but it is definitely a whole body condition for her. We have had to compile a list of coping strategies, but the pandemic has been a huge problem for her. I actually taught her to crochet a granny blanket at the start of the first lockdown and this has now become one of her go-to, self-soothing activities. I wish you well with your pregnancy, stay safe and keep sharing your joy 🧶🌼

    So amazing that you were able to talk about your anxiety thank you for doing that I am sure lots of your viewers could recognise themselves when you described how you have been feeling and I am sure you will have helped a lot of people seek out help and made them feel they are not alone. Such a joy to watch you as always 😊

    Thank you for being so open and honest about mental health. Several years ago, I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety/OCD. At first I was embarrassed to share what I was going through. I then realized how important it is to be transparent so other people know they are not alone.

    I’m so glad to hear you are feeling a bit better, Anxiety is horrible I’ve suffered with it for years along with depression, Your doing great and the best thing at times is to take a step back to get everything organised in your mind 💞
    Can’t wait to see your new bundle of joy arrive into the world, take care and take things easy 🥰

    Hiya. Don't put too much pressure on yourself hun. I'm really glad this pandemic has opened everyone's mind to what and how anxiety effects people, EVERDAY! Thank you for your openness and good vibes for you, your pregnancy and tour house. Big HUGS, trina

  • @JanetTweedie
    @JanetTweedie 3 года назад

    You are so very courageous and refreshingly honest! I would hope that everyone watching would agree that we would much rather you take care of you and yours before you even worry about providing content for “the masses.” Self-care and good mental health are so important right now, and especially for you, with the new little one on the way.
    That said... totally ordered the magazine for the Bella Coco hook included I am so excited to get it!! 😉 I would LOVE it if you would start selling a line of hooks and other crochet tools. Yours are always so pretty!!
    Thank you for your honesty and for everything (crochet and non-crochet related) you share with us. All the best to you... x

    Sending you hugs for the anxiety. Mine comes in waves and I find that watching your videos and doing some crocheting helps me focus on calming down. Please don’t worry. You do an amazing thing sharing your work and the
    Crochet boxes too. Love the new project you want for yourself. Self care for you is important. Take each day and cross it off the list. Xx 🥰

  • @mschubert16
    @mschubert16 3 года назад

    I love videos like this! I can relate so much to the anxiety. I’ve been crocheting for years now, but I’ve noticed that I have been crocheting so much more since this pandemic started. Once I learned about the effects of crocheting and mental health, it became very clear to me why that is. Thank you for sharing with us!

  • @darcypalmer7783
    @darcypalmer7783 3 года назад

    Good for you for taking some time off. Moving while being pregnant during a pandemic and trying to run your business is a lot to deal with!! I've had anxiety my whole life, with palpitations and headaches, and other physical symptoms so I know what you are talking about. My heart goes out to you. Thank you for being so honest. We love you and want the best for you. Praying for you to feel better!

  • @leonoradavis2166
    @leonoradavis2166 3 года назад

    Thank you for sharing. So many people think mental and physical health are completely separate but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Self care is vital. You can’t pour from an empty cup. Take care Sarah-Jayne and always factor me-time in to your busy life.

  • @kimberlynewberry7770
    @kimberlynewberry7770 3 года назад

    I’ve been thinking of you and sending up prayers and good thoughts for you. Good for you for stepping back and taking care of YOU. You asked about yarn color suggestions, and I absolutely love soft greens. Not necessarily just mint but soft greens of any shade. It makes me think of new trees leaves budding out and spring on the way 💚. Keep taking care of yourself and best wishes for the last weeks of your pregnancy!

  • @chrissieanne4641
    @chrissieanne4641 3 года назад

    Thank you for sharing this video and trusting us, your supporters with everything that has been happening in your life, I really felt for you with that instagram video, I think it has been a tough time for everyone in so many different ways that we can all relate to the anxiety and to life in general, it’s tough and not being able to see family outside of our bubbles just heightens it all. At the end of the day you have to put you and your family first and foremost. I like all your other loyal subscribers will always be here to support you. Take care and stay safe xxx

    When my kids were babies, I had the same anxiety that was absolutely effecting me physically too. I thought for sure I had anemia too! I couldn't eat, no energy, felt sickly, sore, awful. Thankfully it has lifted and I only experience it on a much smaller scale now. Hang in there!

I cannot believe it, after years, it clicked thanks to you . I subscribe to the channel I subscribe to the box, I am so very happy.👍👌🥰

    Once you understand that your symptoms, physical and mental, are anxiety related, you can accept them which helps you to stop worrying about the symptoms. Breathing techniques can also be a game changer. Good luck 🤞🏻

    I missed your insta video at the time and just watched it now. So sorry to know that you've been struggling. You work so hard and give everything to your craft and family - you're honestly like a superwoman in my eyes! And yet anxiety can still come crushing down and make you feel lost when you feel you have it all. As someone who's had anxiety for years I can't pretend I've got a great handle on it, but i'm in a far brighter place since I shared how I was feeling with more people, so you absolutely did the right thing letting your followers in on your anxiety. Daily walks alone to let my restless, chattering mind run out of steam and spending as much quality time as poss with loved ones have been the best remedies in my expeience, and remebering that it's okay to say no to things when you're overhwelmed. Take care of yourself. Sending lots of love :) xxx

    • @bellacococrochet

      Thank you 💕 The best advice is to make sure you have good natural light to work in, and also use a light coloured hook if you can so the yarn is easier to see 😊

    Bless your heart! I will pray for you! I'm retired and so is my husband, but at the beginning of the pandemic, I felt anxious and concerned; but I turned to Jesus and gave it all up to the Lord. He has gotten me through so much and He will help you too. I am grateful to Him for the technology we have and that I found your videos to help me renew my passion for crochet which also helps me relax and concentrate on others (because the majority of my makes are for others), and that in and of itself makes me feel good. Please take care of yourself, concentrate on you and your family. God bless you and yours!

    about your anxiety. do you do any other craft besides crochet? when my anxiety kicks in and I'm not immobilised by it I've found paper crafting a good way of redirecting my thoughts. Someone told me once that a piece of paper can't be folded in on itself more than 8 times . so I start with that and try to fold it 9 times. or Using stickers in your diary is fun, there are loads out there and I love searching for them online. Also, kiddies love stickers so its a joint fun thing to do. Give Ella a diary so she can copy what you do. I love what you do, but I'd rather miss months on end so that you came back refreshed and well in yourself than see you burn up. you could always do a throwback day where you reupload a video from the past. Please look after yourself chick, take up meditation too it works like a charm if you practice daily, find a youtube meditation video you like and do it at the same time everyday, you'll soon start to relax the second you hear the music.
