Hello everyone! One correction: I uploaded this video before realizing that I would not be able to re-open my Etsy shop until next week, so I’m sorry that it says it’s open when I’m still working on orders! Snowstorms over here have restricted my travel as well as affected mail so it’s taking me a while to get re-stocked. Thank you for understanding ❤ sending much love and thank you for being here 😊 my puppy got sick last week so I did not upload a video, but he is doing much better! The mosaic kit of the Crow I made is from an Etsy store Northern Whimsy Art: www.etsy.com/shop/NorthernWhimsyArt?ref=shop-header-name&listing_id=1604309465&from_page=listing They are an awesome company! If you’d like you are welcome to join me on Patreon for daily meditation and journaling sessions! ❤
@@sylviacarlson3561 good question and I think it may come from when we are children. That old poem, Children Learn What They Live has such a powerful message to it. I had it hanging on my fridge when my kids and grandkids were young as a constant reminder that my actions and words would forever write on the slate of who they would be as an adult. Unfortunately if they don’t receive the same message at school, friends, coworkers, etc you can only hope that what you do at least helps to build a strong character. Just my thoughts on it being a grandmother
I do love all these videos that affirm my beliefs. I believe in Karma; what you give to others in time, love, compassion You get good things in return I am nearly 73 years old, I am a grandmother to 8 children. Your videos always encourage me to stay strong and carry on. I have cats to care for as well. I do hope your puppy dog gets better. I lost my Female GSD last year. I miss Blondie soo much. She was 16 years old on June 30th 2023. So nice to see you care for your four legged friends! Blessings from South London, England ❤🪴🇳🇴 I was born in Norway
One of my tricks for self-love was to never say anything to myself that I wouldn't say to a child -- no scolding, no guilt, no shame. I often found myself saying, "It's okay, you're only human." And if I was hurtful to another, I would take responsibility and make apologies. Blessings on your path!
That makes total sense! Not saying anything to yourself you wouldn’t say to a child! Love that and I’m going to borrow and remember that! Heartfelt thanks! ❤
I remember a few years ago advising my grown daughter, who was experiencing a great deal of self doubt, to treat herself as gently and kindly as she would her best friend. 🥰
In the US the idea of independence is shoved down our throats and it is completely unnatural and unrealistic in the ways human beings actually function. We are all dependent on each other not only for our basic material needs but also for emotional well being. This is accepted and honored in so many parts of the world (I learned this once I started to travel and live in different countries.) As a mama it is essential to have community and as many helping hands as possible. Absolutely nothing wrong with that except you don’t need to buy as much stuff so it’s not great for profit and consumerism. It’s up to us to reach out, connect and rebuild the bonds that society has tried to break. Much love to everyone on here in whatever you’re going through; there’s people who care❤
Complete truth stated without compromise here - bravo. I am 80 y.o. and I've tested and lived this truth. I've come through .marriage breakdown, single parenting and now ageing and I'm still functioning well living in this truth. People need people first, things second . My joy is to see more and more people breaking the conditioning. Paolo is such a beautiful inspiration and we are affirming her. BLESSINGS TO ALL.
Staying AUTHENTIC in a world where everyone is trying to be the same, thanks to social media, - is indeed tricky! I've also been navigating this path of self-love and acceptance, just as I am. It feels like a never-ending journey, but we've got this! ❤ ❤ ❤
Just because you are different from others, doesn't mean you are authentic. Even those people who are "same as others" can be authentic. I think that the problem is indeed in this artificial portrayals of authenticity, and putting to shame everyone who is "not" authentic.
Seeing you dance in the snow made my heart warm. You’re such a light in this world! Just imagine next year (or two) dancing with your child in the snow!!! This month, I got to experience my first snow day as a mother with my recently turned 1yo who just learned how to walk. So memorable. Take care!❤
Absolutely. If we want to heal we have to be willing to face what's uncomfortable. We have to first identify the negative core beliefs we've been holding on to. Only then we can begin changing. Not changing ourselves but the stories we've been telling ourselves about who we think we are. I often hear people saying: "I don't know who I am. I want to find myself". Perhaps sometimes it's helpful to find out who we're not and start letting go of that. So our true authentic self can re-emerge ❤
Paola, you were indeed the Dancing Winter Fairy outside in the snow ❄️ Lovely to see you, listen to your self-reflection and observe the peace you’re enjoying this season!❤ Until next time, know how much we care for you! 🧚
I know I experience that with my daughter; there are some tough moments in the beginning as any new mom but it's filled with such beautiful lessons. But yes I agree you definitely have a whole new perspective. What a journey❤
This can be true for many but for some there is another side of new motherhood. 'Baby blues' can be quite normal & a quickly passing phase for most new moms. But post partum depression is real. And insidious. It also can wait, sort of in the background, to raise its ugly head when you least expect it. It may never be a problem for you; you are very self aware. Just recognize it if it does so you can get help. This is not meant to be a 'downer' just a reminder to tuck away 'in case'. Your mental & physical health is more important to your son than we are to you. We will be here. ❤
I love your videos so so much. I know soon you will be really busy with your little baby, but please find some time to continue your work here on yt. Your videos are a ray of light in this dark times.
❤ The cornbread looks perfect. We like ours a little crispy on top and sides. I love home days too....baking, rearranging, creating....love your creativity!!
I live in Maine and winter is my most favoritest season. Everything slows down and there is little stress to GO DO SOMETHING. I basically just sleep and eat and read by the woodstove. No bugs or craziness or people demanding attention. I can go snowshoeing or skating if I wish but there's no pressure to do so. BTW, if you thought that cornbread was "burnt" you havent had my wife's cooking.
Dear Paola, your channel and Jonna Jinton's are my two favorite channels for a few moments of calm, peace, beauty, and quiet reflection on what is truly important in life as we grow and progress and struggle with adversity and challenges. Every life is unique, but we all struggle with adversity in one way or another and it is our individual challenge to cope the best we can while appreciating all the good things in our daily lives. Gratitude and acceptance are my guiding principles these days as I approach my 78th birthday. Thank you for all you do, Paola. You have an immense, positive impact on the lives of so many people whom you will never meet in person. This tired, broken world could use a million more people just like you.
I love your videos. They are so real and can be applied to everyday life. Don't worry about wearing the same dress. Comfort is what counts now. Take care, and get some rest, and enjoy this cozy time of year.
Bless you for this video series about the journey of growing in self-confidence and self-trust. I recently approached someone about how their words and actions about me in front of others bothered me, and they also became upset. I've been beating myself up, trying to think if there was any truth in what they said, doubting myself and my interpretation of events. When I saw your video come up, I said, "Oh, thank heaven." All of your words wrapped themselves around me in a big hug. Thank you and everyone in this lovely community for making me feel like I'm not alone. I still have a lot of work to do...
I have to say, how beautifully pregnancy suits you.❤ You have always been beautiful, inside and out.. but you are exuding a glow and Light now, that is just breathtaking. Thank you for your time with us and I can't wait to see your next video! Love&Light!!🤍🕊✨️
I noticed that you are beginning to show. Getting out for fresh air and exercise is so beneficial especially now. It's good to see the animals all cozy and warm. I'm glad puppy is feeling better. I hope you were able to salvage some of the cornbread. Thank you for another great video.
Hi Paola, Simon from Sussex (England) again. You look so wonderfully "blooming"as a "mum to be". For this writer, this is lovely to see, and I concur valuing ourselves is the most important thing we can do; because if we don't value ourselves, we simply cannot value others/environment/nature. BTW, your book is permanently on my night reading pile! Best, Sx
I started watching your videos during Covid, and I just want to tell you that was my saving grace. It gave me something to look forward to when the world seemed to be falling apart, and I would like to say thank you, I wish happiness and joy to you and your growing family. I am also a nature lover and hiking in the snow has become one of favorite times to hike and just wander into the forest. I am a tree bather and nature lover. I have recently been practicing staying still. It is not always easy, but it is so worth it. Thank you!
This is great! At age 72, after a recent divorce, I’ve rediscovered Louise Hay’s videos. Her philosophy on loving yourself is changing your inner self-talk and beliefs, so that your life changes permanently. I say affirmations many times daily. When I become aware of a negative belief, I pray with a visualization that it leaves me or dissipates. I visualize how I want my life to be, including financially, and I affirm it. Affirmations go beyond reality to plant seeds in the atmosphere of my subconscious. And I practice gratitude, going over even the tiniest thing, such as my blender and nutmilk maker. I’m working on changing my feelings with these techniques. Also, I expect the prayer-visualizations to heal my physical and mental problems (depression, digestive issues, fatigue, etc). So far, it’s working.
Frolic in the winter-land, dance in the snow. I love your shots of nature, even just from your front porch. Blessings to you and your loved ones. Cheers!
I am learning at 55 that sometimes I need to talk to my little girl self and tell her things I did not hear during the formative years. You have time and are well ahead of the curve. ❤
May God continue to bestow his belssings upon you and your journey and may He richly bless your family and keep your newborn safe and healthy. Thanks for sharing the peace, love, and joy in your life and home in the forest.
Your lovely curated videos make me appreciate my home like the way you do. You should value yourself more because you’re such a beautiful person. I hope you’ve overcome that incidence with setting boundaries with the friend that didn’t make you feel good about yourself. I’m glad you’re taking the time to feel good about yourself. We all need to feel that way.
Thank you so very much for non stop video making with so much full of inspiration in this gloomy life. I enjoy each of your video and your simple living I wish I could have. I also love your words of wisdom and your narration and your lovely sweet voice. I do not know you personally but I felt like I’m very close to you. You certainly send in very good vibes and shows us how to live and extend yourself for some deep human connections. Thank you so very much. Shelly
I enjoy Celtic music too. Your art piece of the crow is beautiful. I know there are different varieties- we have some huge ones here- they may be ravens or blackbirds. They each have a different sound and are very intelligent (which I'm sure you know 😊.Have a beautiful weekend. 💕
I'm going through my own transformation and I'm a little anxious, even at nearly 60. Been there many times. Can I do it, and what if etc? It's a journey indeed. You think you're 'done' then the need for change in what ever way starts tapping on the window. Then the familiar lurch of the stomach...here we go again. Try to ignore it, but the tapping just gets louder. No getting round it, but it's all worth it. Thankyou for another beautiful video 🙏
I love how you will one day be able to share these videos with your son, if you choose, and show him what mommy did during her pregnancy. How you kept the whimsy flowing and wove his storyline into it. It's really beautiful.
Hello from Australia , Oh wow, I hope you know just how powerful your words are to me 🫶at 67 years old I only just recently discovered my self worth and what I have brought to my family ( gosh it took long enough🫢) I have written your wonderful words in my diary to remind myself when I’m down. I wish I could express myself as well as you, I shall work on that too👍🏻sending you all my good wishes xxx
I have often thought the isolation thing is nothing to be feared,but simply a way to be stronger so you can use that energy and creativity to add something to others and perhaps be useful helping others to get out of their boxes and try to find themselves. Too often we get lost trying to please others and neglect ourselves.
Loved the video, of course! Had to mention my happy shock when you mentioned the Goddard sisters. I, too, have recently discovered their wonderful music. But here is the really incredible thing. Since last summer, I have been plagued with leg and foot pain in my left leg. Finally diagnosed with an uprooted Meniscus coupled with bone on bone arthritis needing a knee replacement. And plantar fasciitis in that left foot. With some excellent PT. and chiropractic care it is healing and no longer need surgery. But, what I feel has helped greatly is dancing around my house to the Goddard sisters music!! So watching you dance outside in the snow to it put a huge smile on my face and I totally understand!!
How lucky we are to be able to ‘ hide’ I cannot imagine a life where I was forced to live the harshness which many people have no choice the anxiety the feeling nauseous the panic as the flight to be safely home again after only a little time away ! Iam grateful everyday ! ✨
Ms. Paola, I love your videos so much. ❤ they really provide so much emotional support for me, and I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to make these videos and share your experiences. I relate to so much of what you say. 😊 Prayers for you and your family to stay safe and healthy and warm!🙏 Thank you for your lovely heart.
Im going thru chemo now and enjoy your videos so much they keep me going. Im using this time to bring more positivity and calmness and heal. Thank you so much😊
Paola, I love the saying “To thine own self be true”. I have and continue to learn that it is the pathway to how many other aspects of life benefit and work out. Self care allows me to be present for others. Enjoy the snowy forest, it looks beautiful 🌲🕊️
I loved the celtic music at the end! I use to play bodhran at various irish sessions when I lived in Massachusetts, it was a magical time! Last winter when I was on the Oregon coast, I'd sit up on a knoll overlooking the ocean and play the drum along with some celtic music 🎶 You played a chord in me when you were mixing up the batter and said how you loved being home while there was a big snowstorm, baking with a nice warm fire on. That's how I felt when I had my house in Vermont, I do miss that cozy feeling since I've been in my van. Hoping to find a nice cabin in the fairy tale woods somewhere and stoke the fire again. ✌
I discovered your channel this weekend on a whim. Oh my gosh, your videos have single handedly pulled me out of my winter rut and filled me with the inspiration and creativity that I don't usually find until the spring! I spruced up my home with thrift store finds, decorated with flowers, lit candles, baked bread.. mm! And your wise and soothing insights are so unbelievably delightful, like a perfectly steeped cup of tea. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You really helped me :-)
Paola, it is so true that many people find themselves faced with self doubt that seems quite overwhelming. I love the way you describe the journey as not really being broken, but as an opportunity to form a new, more beautiful relationship with yourself. It made me think of the lovely Japanese art of kintsugi. Broken pottery mended with gold epoxy and transformed into something more beautiful than it was before it shattered. It's an image I value because life will always take a chip here or make a break there, but we are repairable.
You are an aspiration for inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing. It has been a blessing in my life. May the Lord continue to bless you and yours also. And if no one has told you lately, I am so proud of you and you are pretty amazing. Sending love and lots of hugs.❤🤗🙏🕊️
Your videos are always incredibly timely. We really do gravitate to those on the same frequency. There's a lovely quote "be who you are so that those that are looking for you can find you".💜❤
Dear Paola, let me just say that another, more perfect soul, doesn’t exist on this planet. Please have no self doubt or shame. We can never compare ourselves to others. We are unique and wonderful in our own right. There are no mistakes in life, only learnings. Please look up the words to The Desiderata - it is a mantra to live your life by. And you are indeed, a child of the universe. Much love and admiration, Francesca xxx❤❤❤
This video spoke to my soul. I’m going through a similar situation of growth and hardship, relearning how I want to live, and finding balance in all of the difficulties of trying to become a version of myself and living in a way that makes me happy. Hearing your positive outlook on the situation, it is comforting to know that other people are going through what I am and - reminder that I can use this opportunity as a turning point for “growth, healing, renewal, motivation”.
Thanks Paola for another beautiful video! What a wonderful snow forest you have so close by!! So magical! Thank you for telling about the Gotthard sisters. I've looked them up and watched a video where they tell about themselves. The music is wonderful, reminds me of Riverdance!! That touches my heart every time and makes me cry, because i love it so much! Love to see you dancing outside and jumping on a rock. Take care when you do that sweetie, you've got a little baby inside you 🧡🥰
It’s amazing how you have self doubt, but project such joy and happiness from the simple things in life. I literally look forward to your videos each and every time, and they always inspire me.
Enjoyed your dance in the snow! Your self-worth is who you are, and you Paola are an angelic light in this world. God knows it and so do all of your subscribers!
Wonderful wisdom-sharing video - as always -TY. I was writing a comment to your last video, when someone had to use my iPad, so it never got sent. I guess sharing those thoughts remains important to me, b/c here I am again. When you told us you had taken a step in a relationship that was hard, but important for your personal growth, I started to think about a few times in my life when I have tried to do that. It has never gone well, and almost always, our friendship or relationship ends. The difference, though, is that I am quite sure you approached the task of “clearing the air,” with a sweetness and tone that is so … you. I very much appreciate you sharing that, as I will try to learn from you and do better … if ever in that place again. Blessings to you, Paola … 😊❤️✝️
i love the last song!!! also, I really love how honest you talk with us in the last videos :) thank you for that. and all the blessings to your path of healing ❤
You are really very helpful for a person struggling with addiction mindset! I learn a lot of self love and compassion from you, it is very helping and you are a role model.
Thank you a Paola for another beautiful video. For sharing your journey. You have helped me on mine. You often find words to express just what has been in my heart that I hadn't found words for. Much love to you and your growing family ❤
Self-acceptance can make us suddenly braver and more at peace than we ever thought possible. We're also then better able to share our natural gifts, and mentor others to do the same. You are a gentle yet powerful teacher, much needed these days. Sending love, peace, and hugs. ❤️✌️🤗
Absolutely loved the message in this video. I especially loved when you were talking about valuing your soul. Beautiful message and definitely a video I will come back and relisten to! Thank you for sharing with us!
Paola. I just wanted to share my deep gratitude. As much as I’m trying my best to return to my love of getting lost in a good book, instead of avoiding the challenges of life with RUclips & Netflix, I have, over the past few weeks, fast forwarded through your RUclips life, from your first video until now. Your videos have helped me reset, & shift my inner world more in the direction of that part of myself that is more grounded & authentic…& created a desire to reclaim my playful, innocent child-self; a part of my life that I very much miss. I have been thoroughly enjoying tapping into my creativity, whilst crafting orange garlands & wreaths for my home!…opening the gateway for more projects. May your pregnancy, birth, motherhood & family-life be full of magic & wonder. Oh, & a few childrens’ books that you might like (if you haven’t already come across them) would be the Milly, Molly, Mandy series, the Fern Hollow books & a gorgeous book by Wendy Froud & Terry Windling called “A Midsummer Night’s Faery Tale”. Much love, Rebecca
so much related to these, especially the last two video topic !! I will always practice self love, and put my own needs first, make good rest and health, my growth, my innerchild and my soul with the things I enjoy doing as my first priorities !
I also have trouble standing up in anyway for myself or my needs. I've been really working on that the past many months. I'm very different than my family. I'm creative,sensitive, & have a huge heart for those less fortunate. My family has some very narrow and racist ideas. As a result they don't include me anymore. I am proud of my heart and my care for others who are suffering and it is how we should be. I don't see too much kindness in them towards others who are different. I can say I have reached some peace with knowing there is nothing I can do to change them and i don't have to keep conforming to what they want to see. Your channel has helped me to understand I will not waste what life I have hoping others around me will change. I am now looking out for myself. ❤ I hope you are feeling wonderful during this special time!
Becca M here,.,I LOVE crows..what a great art piece..many blessings for you and your baby❤️.. Ive never felt good enough and treated that way by family and friends..now at 64, I dont care..its time for me and my husband.,,
I understand having a low point and feeling like something is ending. I had spine surgery a year and a half ago. It was the hardest thing physically and emotionally I have ever been through. I have to learn to walk again. Now I look back and I feel I have gained so many wisdom and strength through my journey. It realized I am a strong person and I have a strong will to survive and rise above adversity. Keep moving forward always have hope.
I love that music! I really need to start listening to some. You are such a sweet person and so wise. My parents never were happy, so I’m glad to see a young person already like yourself finding your way and worth! ❤
I think you will learn to love yourself as soon as you stop thinking too much about it. I spent over a decade in self improvement, it hardly worked. Then I let go, I have never felt better. I am what I am, like it or not and life is too short to worry too much about it. :-) I think you are wonderful and I wish you could realize it. Hugs.
What a treat to find a new Cottage Fairy video today. I only discovered this channel quite recently. I have now watched every video right from the first one and I have loved them all. Thank you Paola!
There is this old desk I have once used as a computer desk, but now I use it mainly for writing poetry and things and sitting at the table for a snack every now and then.
It's very hard to forgive one's own self for mistakes and shortcomings. I don't know why it should be. I'm almost 67 and still struggle with that. Some people do the most horrible things and never give that a second thought and others beat themselves black and blue for the smallest reasons. To me, when you can accept that you will never be perfect, forgive your own mistakes, and become your own best cheerleader instead of your own worst critic, then you will have mastered the art of self love. Beautiful crow and I'm glad your puppy is doing better!
Thank you! Dang! I needed this message. I’ve been sick off and on for three months now of various flu things and have been so down on myself. The house is a mess, I have too much “stuff”, yah da yadda. Just took a deep breath. Now moving on……💕
I absolutely love this video! 🤎 You inspire me to try harder and you sometimes bring both tears and smiles to my face. I am surrounded by your beautiful art in my work station at home. My favorite is the girl and the fox embracing, and all the others you have created. Thanks so much🌻
Sweet girl, I love your videos. I can tell you this…when you first gaze upon that little face that is you (both), you will never again ponder your love for yourself🙏🏼✌🏽❤️all my best.
Sharing your vulnerability is such a gift to all of us. Thank you for giving all of us light and hope as we struggle with the same self-doubts. I am just now learning to reclaim my soul. You give me inspiration. Thank you!
I currently suffer from both depression and burned out so this video really spoke to me about self love and boundaries and such. Kindest regards from Sweden
Paola! WHAT! a beautiful snowfall! So picturesque! Your insight to viewing our low points as the beginning and not the end, resonated with me! It's casting off old ideas, thoughts, behaviors, which is cleansing, to being open to new and exciting things! Cleansing and purging!! Out with the old, in with the new! New thoughts, ideas, behaviors,. I struggle with depression, and this time of year - wow! Really have to think and be positive more and to stsy focused on the positive. You are such a blessing to so many! We all love and cherish you! Enjoy your gorgeous weather!! xcoo
I so enjoyed this video, so much in it stood out for me. So many don’t understand why I simply like being home and not always going places, being with people and busy. At 65 I love being home, my cozy, peaceful place where I can be me and do things in my space that I love. I want to claim my own story after years of caring for everyone else. I so needed your messages and thoughts…you get it, thank you❤. I’m a winter person, always have been and love the tranquility, beauty of glistening snow, shorter days and less “noise”. No one has ever understood that as we live in upstate New York with long beautiful winters that I so love and crave as much as they need sunshine and warmth. I don’t understand why we can’t just be who we are with criticism.
This was just beautiful Paola…..the snow, your home, your cooking….I love to see what you cook and bake. And you had some wonderful wisdom to share. I loved it all. Thank you ❤
I am so enjoying your videos these days. I am soaking up all that you speak about regarding tending to our mental health. When ever I am faced with struggles that have been placed in my path I tend go to inward and get real meditative with my thoughts. It's at times like these that I crave be alone with my thoughts, journaling, walks in nature and reading anything by Pema Chodron. Her books have helped guide me thru many hills and valleys in my life. I also noticed in this video how sweetly you have decorated your home. It reminds me of a cottage that I once lived in that was decorated with treasured items dear to my heart. Glad to hear that your pup is doing much better. Stay well & happy until next time...
Oh Lord, I don't know what it us like to not love yourself, to treat yourself kindly. I feel so sorry for those who don't know who they really are. You are the physical manifestation of The Source energy.....of all that is. You have a spark of God in you. Please, everyone, treat yourself accordingly ❤❤❤
I have been dealing with some health issues, and not knowing what they may mean for the future is scary, but I'm trying to find small joys and things to look froward to.
If I lived where you are I could sit and watch the snow fall all day, it’s mesmerising ❤ I believe we are always learning, about life and ourselves, how we are, how we want to show up in the world. Lots of love to you and have a wonderful week ❤
It’s so lovely to see you videos, thank you for calming us all. Enjoy this beautiful season. For those people who watch her videos, click a like button (3700 views almost) and ard 1000 likes …. Terrible people 😉 happy weekend folks! Peace and love
Hello everyone! One correction: I uploaded this video before realizing that I would not be able to re-open my Etsy shop until next week, so I’m sorry that it says it’s open when I’m still working on orders! Snowstorms over here have restricted my travel as well as affected mail so it’s taking me a while to get re-stocked. Thank you for understanding ❤ sending much love and thank you for being here 😊 my puppy got sick last week so I did not upload a video, but he is doing much better!
The mosaic kit of the Crow I made is from an Etsy store Northern Whimsy Art: www.etsy.com/shop/NorthernWhimsyArt?ref=shop-header-name&listing_id=1604309465&from_page=listing They are an awesome company!
If you’d like you are welcome to join me on Patreon for daily meditation and journaling sessions! ❤
I’ll be waiting. But I can be patient. 😃
Paola, could you point me towards the crow shop? It's the perfect gift for someone I love dearly. Thank you!
@@nerissa7657It is linked in the description ❤
Glad he's doing better
The crow mosaic is beautiful
One of my favourite birds ❤
Did you get a crow on this site or the ravens?
“You need know your own value. Don’t rely on others to affirm you”. I am 66 years old and still learning such an important lesson.
Appreciate ❤ your 66 year old
65 and feel the same, such a powerful message
The question I have is where do you get that if you are not relying on others to affirm you. How do children do that?
@@sylviacarlson3561 good question and I think it may come from when we are children. That old poem, Children Learn What They Live has such a powerful message to it. I had it hanging on my fridge when my kids and grandkids were young as a constant reminder that my actions and words would forever write on the slate of who they would be as an adult. Unfortunately if they don’t receive the same message at school, friends, coworkers, etc you can only hope that what you do at least helps to build a strong character. Just my thoughts on it being a grandmother
I do love all these videos that affirm my beliefs.
I believe in Karma; what you give to others in time, love, compassion
You get good things in return
I am nearly 73 years old, I am a grandmother to 8 children. Your videos always encourage me to stay strong and carry on. I have cats to care for as well. I do hope your puppy dog gets better. I lost my Female GSD
last year. I miss Blondie soo much. She was 16 years old on June 30th 2023. So nice to see you care for your four legged friends! Blessings from South London, England ❤🪴🇳🇴 I was born in Norway
One of my tricks for self-love was to never say anything to myself that I wouldn't say to a child -- no scolding, no guilt, no shame. I often found myself saying, "It's okay, you're only human." And if I was hurtful to another, I would take responsibility and make apologies. Blessings on your path!
What sound advice!
That makes total sense! Not saying anything to yourself you wouldn’t say to a child! Love that and I’m going to borrow and remember that! Heartfelt thanks! ❤
@@lindasteinbrenner8065 Thank you!
That’s beautiful. Thank you.❤
I remember a few years ago advising my grown daughter, who was experiencing a great deal of self doubt, to treat herself as gently and kindly as she would her best friend. 🥰
In the US the idea of independence is shoved down our throats and it is completely unnatural and unrealistic in the ways human beings actually function. We are all dependent on each other not only for our basic material needs but also for emotional well being. This is accepted and honored in so many parts of the world (I learned this once I started to travel and live in different countries.) As a mama it is essential to have community and as many helping hands as possible. Absolutely nothing wrong with that except you don’t need to buy as much stuff so it’s not great for profit and consumerism. It’s up to us to reach out, connect and rebuild the bonds that society has tried to break. Much love to everyone on here in whatever you’re going through; there’s people who care❤
Complete truth stated without compromise here - bravo. I am 80 y.o. and I've tested and lived this truth. I've come through .marriage breakdown, single parenting and now ageing and I'm still functioning well living in this truth. People need people first, things second . My joy is to see more and more people breaking the conditioning. Paolo is such a beautiful inspiration and we are affirming her. BLESSINGS TO ALL.

This quote impressed my mind so much... I can't describe my feelings in words.. My friend, Thanks a lot for sharing, 🙏
Staying AUTHENTIC in a world where everyone is trying to be the same, thanks to social media, - is indeed tricky! I've also been navigating this path of self-love and acceptance, just as I am. It feels like a never-ending journey, but we've got this! ❤ ❤ ❤
I love the raven you made, was that a kit? You are glowing and looking beautiful… and your cornbread didn’t look burnt to me.
Just because you are different from others, doesn't mean you are authentic. Even those people who are "same as others" can be authentic. I think that the problem is indeed in this artificial portrayals of authenticity, and putting to shame everyone who is "not" authentic.
Seeing you dance in the snow made my heart warm. You’re such a light in this world! Just imagine next year (or two) dancing with your child in the snow!!! This month, I got to experience my first snow day as a mother with my recently turned 1yo who just learned how to walk. So memorable. Take care!❤
such a light, yes, we are all unique, follow our own heart, our own pursuing.
Absolutely. If we want to heal we have to be willing to face what's uncomfortable. We have to first identify the negative core beliefs we've been holding on to. Only then we can begin changing. Not changing ourselves but the stories we've been telling ourselves about who we think we are.
I often hear people saying: "I don't know who I am. I want to find myself". Perhaps sometimes it's helpful to find out who we're not and start letting go of that. So our true authentic self can re-emerge ❤
Paola, you were indeed the Dancing Winter Fairy outside in the snow ❄️ Lovely to see you, listen to your self-reflection and observe the peace you’re enjoying this season!❤ Until next time, know how much we care for you! 🧚
When your little son is here, you will feel so tenderly toward him that it will help you feel the same love and compassion for yourself. ❤️
I know I experience that with my daughter; there are some tough moments in the beginning as any new mom but it's filled with such beautiful lessons. But yes I agree you definitely have a whole new perspective. What a journey❤
This can be true for many but for some there is another side of new motherhood. 'Baby blues' can be quite normal & a quickly passing phase for most new moms. But post partum depression is real. And insidious. It also can wait, sort of in the background, to raise its ugly head when you least expect it. It may never be a problem for you; you are very self aware. Just recognize it if it does so you can get help. This is not meant to be a 'downer' just a reminder to tuck away 'in case'. Your mental & physical health is more important to your son than we are to you. We will be here. ❤
I love your videos so so much. I know soon you will be really busy with your little baby, but please find some time to continue your work here on yt. Your videos are a ray of light in this dark times.
❤ The cornbread looks perfect. We like ours a little crispy on top and sides. I love home days too....baking, rearranging, creating....love your creativity!!
I like cornbread just like that. Brown and crispy around the softness in the center. It looked good to me ❤
Same here! Looked perfect! Now I’m hungry for cornbread, might bake some myself! 😋
I live in Maine and winter is my most favoritest season. Everything slows down and there is little stress to GO DO SOMETHING. I basically just sleep and eat and read by the woodstove. No bugs or craziness or people demanding attention. I can go snowshoeing or skating if I wish but there's no pressure to do so. BTW, if you thought that cornbread was "burnt" you havent had my wife's cooking.
Dear Paola, your channel and Jonna Jinton's are my two favorite channels for a few moments of calm, peace, beauty, and quiet reflection on what is truly important in life as we grow and progress and struggle with adversity and challenges. Every life is unique, but we all struggle with adversity in one way or another and it is our individual challenge to cope the best we can while appreciating all the good things in our daily lives. Gratitude and acceptance are my guiding principles these days as I approach my 78th birthday. Thank you for all you do, Paola. You have an immense, positive impact on the lives of so many people whom you will never meet in person. This tired, broken world could use a million more people just like you.
I love the Crow!!!! The music is great too and thanks for sharing your thoughts...it's always lovely to see the animals. 💕
I love your videos. They are so real and can be applied to everyday life. Don't worry about wearing the same dress. Comfort is what counts now. Take care, and get some rest, and enjoy this cozy time of year.
Bless you for this video series about the journey of growing in self-confidence and self-trust. I recently approached someone about how their words and actions about me in front of others bothered me, and they also became upset. I've been beating myself up, trying to think if there was any truth in what they said, doubting myself and my interpretation of events.
When I saw your video come up, I said, "Oh, thank heaven." All of your words wrapped themselves around me in a big hug. Thank you and everyone in this lovely community for making me feel like I'm not alone. I still have a lot of work to do...
I can so relate to what you said…
I have to say, how beautifully pregnancy suits you.❤ You have always been beautiful, inside and out.. but you are exuding a glow and Light now, that is just breathtaking. Thank you for your time with us and I can't wait to see your next video!
Love&Light!!🤍🕊✨️
Your child is so blessed to have you as a mother. A person who knows who you are. And Luke, as a father, is someone who lets you be free to be you.
I noticed that you are beginning to show. Getting out for fresh air and exercise is so beneficial especially now. It's good to see the animals all cozy and warm. I'm glad puppy is feeling better. I hope you were able to salvage some of the cornbread. Thank you for another great video.
Hi Paola, Simon from Sussex (England) again. You look so wonderfully "blooming"as a "mum to be". For this writer, this is lovely to see, and I concur valuing ourselves is the most important thing we can do; because if we don't value ourselves, we simply cannot value others/environment/nature. BTW, your book is permanently on my night reading pile! Best, Sx
I started watching your videos during Covid, and I just want to tell you that was my saving grace. It gave me something to look forward to when the world seemed to be falling apart, and I would like to say thank you, I wish happiness and joy to you and your growing family. I am also a nature lover and hiking in the snow has become one of favorite times to hike and just wander into the forest. I am a tree bather and nature lover. I have recently been practicing staying still. It is not always easy, but it is so worth it. Thank you!
This is great! At age 72, after a recent divorce, I’ve rediscovered Louise Hay’s videos. Her philosophy on loving yourself is changing your inner self-talk and beliefs, so that your life changes permanently. I say affirmations many times daily. When I become aware of a negative belief, I pray with a visualization that it leaves me or dissipates. I visualize how I want my life to be, including financially, and I affirm it. Affirmations go beyond reality to plant seeds in the atmosphere of my subconscious. And I practice gratitude, going over even the tiniest thing, such as my blender and nutmilk maker. I’m working on changing my feelings with these techniques. Also, I expect the prayer-visualizations to heal my physical and mental problems (depression, digestive issues, fatigue, etc). So far, it’s working.
Frolic in the winter-land, dance in the snow. I love your shots of nature, even just from your front porch. Blessings to you and your loved ones. Cheers!
I am learning at 55 that sometimes I need to talk to my little girl self and tell her things I did not hear during the formative years. You have time and are well ahead of the curve. ❤
May God continue to bestow his belssings upon you and your journey and may He richly bless your family and keep your newborn safe and healthy. Thanks for sharing the peace, love, and joy in your life and home in the forest.
Your lovely curated videos make me appreciate my home like the way you do. You should value yourself more because you’re such a beautiful person. I hope you’ve overcome that incidence with setting boundaries with the friend that didn’t make you feel good about yourself. I’m glad you’re taking the time to feel good about yourself. We all need to feel that way.
Thank you so very much for non stop video making with so much full of inspiration in this gloomy life. I enjoy each of your video and your simple living I wish I could have. I also love your words of wisdom and your narration and your lovely sweet voice. I do not know you personally but I felt like I’m very close to you. You certainly send in very good vibes and shows us how to live and extend yourself for some deep human connections. Thank you so very much. Shelly
beautifully worded, Shelley, just what I feel about Paola and her sharing
How lovely and joyful…dancing in the virgin snow to this music❣️
Beautiful video, Paola. Nesting in the winter during the storm…..growing a sweet human baby within……..just lovely.
I am thankful for your soft and gentle vlogs. ♥️♥️
I enjoy Celtic music too. Your art piece of the crow is beautiful. I know there are different varieties- we have some huge ones here- they may be ravens or blackbirds. They each have a different sound and are very intelligent (which I'm sure you know 😊.Have a beautiful weekend. 💕
I'm going through my own transformation and I'm a little anxious, even at nearly 60. Been there many times. Can I do it, and what if etc? It's a journey indeed. You think you're 'done' then the need for change in what ever way starts tapping on the window. Then the familiar lurch of the stomach...here we go again. Try to ignore it, but the tapping just gets louder. No getting round it, but it's all worth it. Thankyou for another beautiful video 🙏
🤍🙏🤍 Have a good time dancing in the snow!!! From the bottom of my heart: Thank you so so much!
I love how you will one day be able to share these videos with your son, if you choose, and show him what mommy did during her pregnancy. How you kept the whimsy flowing and wove his storyline into it. It's really beautiful.
Hello from Australia , Oh wow, I hope you know just how powerful your words are to me 🫶at 67 years old I only just recently discovered my self worth and what I have brought to my family ( gosh it took long enough🫢) I have written your wonderful words in my diary to remind myself when I’m down. I wish I could express myself as well as you, I shall work on that too👍🏻sending you all my good wishes xxx
I have often thought the isolation thing is nothing to be feared,but simply a way to be stronger so you can use that energy and creativity to add something to others and perhaps be useful helping others to get out of their boxes and try to find themselves. Too often we get lost trying to please others and neglect ourselves.
Loved the video, of course! Had to mention my happy shock when you mentioned the Goddard sisters. I, too, have recently discovered their wonderful music. But here is the really incredible thing. Since last summer, I have been plagued with leg and foot pain in my left leg. Finally diagnosed with an uprooted Meniscus coupled with bone on bone arthritis needing a knee replacement. And plantar fasciitis in that left foot. With some excellent PT. and chiropractic care it is healing and no longer need surgery. But, what I feel has helped greatly is dancing around my house to the Goddard sisters music!! So watching you dance outside in the snow to it put a huge smile on my face and I totally understand!!
How lucky we are to be able to ‘ hide’ I cannot imagine a life where I was forced to live the harshness which many people have no choice the anxiety the feeling nauseous the panic as the flight to be safely home again after only a little time away ! Iam grateful everyday ! ✨
You carried me through the pandemic and continue to inspire me deeply, Paola ✨ Thank you for being the beacon of light for so many of us!
Ms. Paola, I love your videos so much. ❤ they really provide so much emotional support for me, and I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to make these videos and share your experiences. I relate to so much of what you say. 😊 Prayers for you and your family to stay safe and healthy and warm!🙏 Thank you for your lovely heart.
Your voice is really soothing and calming me, bring so much peace and healing.. Thank you so much its help alot through my anxiety….
Im going thru chemo now and enjoy your videos so much they keep me going. Im using this time to bring more positivity and calmness and heal. Thank you so much😊
The landscape outside your home is truly beautiful!
Your laughter and smothering the burdt cornbread was sooo sweet! She who laughs, lasts!
Paola, I love the saying “To thine own self be true”. I have and continue to learn that it is the pathway to how many other aspects of life benefit and work out. Self care allows me to be present for others. Enjoy the snowy forest, it looks beautiful 🌲🕊️
I loved the celtic music at the end! I use to play bodhran at various irish sessions when I lived in Massachusetts, it was a magical time! Last winter when I was on the Oregon coast, I'd sit up on a knoll overlooking the ocean and play the drum along with some celtic music 🎶
You played a chord in me when you were mixing up the batter and said how you loved being home while there was a big snowstorm, baking with a nice warm fire on. That's how I felt when I had my house in Vermont, I do miss that cozy feeling since I've been in my van. Hoping to find a nice cabin in the fairy tale woods somewhere and stoke the fire again. ✌
Well said Paola - I’m 61 and trying to reinvent myself while unemployed on all levels - you’re such an inspiration 😊
I discovered your channel this weekend on a whim. Oh my gosh, your videos have single handedly pulled me out of my winter rut and filled me with the inspiration and creativity that I don't usually find until the spring! I spruced up my home with thrift store finds, decorated with flowers, lit candles, baked bread.. mm! And your wise and soothing insights are so unbelievably delightful, like a perfectly steeped cup of tea. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You really helped me :-)
Paola, it is so true that many people find themselves faced with self doubt that seems quite overwhelming. I love the way you describe the journey as not really being broken, but as an opportunity to form a new, more beautiful relationship with yourself. It made me think of the lovely Japanese art of kintsugi. Broken pottery mended with gold epoxy and transformed into something more beautiful than it was before it shattered. It's an image I value because life will always take a chip here or make a break there, but we are repairable.
You are an aspiration for inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing. It has been a blessing in my life. May the Lord continue to bless you and yours also. And if no one has told you lately, I am so proud of you and you are pretty amazing. Sending love and lots of hugs.❤🤗🙏🕊️
Your videos are always incredibly timely. We really do gravitate to those on the same frequency. There's a lovely quote "be who you are so that those that are looking for you can find you".💜❤
Thank you for your encouraging and honest thoughts. It is not always easy to face yourself and accept your current or changing ways. 🙂❤️
Dear Paola, let me just say that another, more perfect soul, doesn’t exist on this planet. Please have no self doubt or shame. We can never compare ourselves to others. We are unique and wonderful in our own right. There are no mistakes in life, only learnings.
Please look up the words to The Desiderata - it is a mantra to live your life by. And you are indeed, a child of the universe. Much love and admiration, Francesca xxx❤❤❤
Thank you for the recommendation! I looked it up and it’s so good. I can’t believe I’d never come across it as a whole.
@@victoriaoliver9958 Dear Victoria, my pleasure ❤️ they are such wise words !
Great video Paola, thank you for sharing your quiet day and your appreciation of this beautiful winter season, take care and stay safe and warm ❤️🙏❄️
This video spoke to my soul. I’m going through a similar situation of growth and hardship, relearning how I want to live, and finding balance in all of the difficulties of trying to become a version of myself and living in a way that makes me happy. Hearing your positive outlook on the situation, it is comforting to know that other people are going through what I am and - reminder that I can use this opportunity as a turning point for “growth, healing, renewal, motivation”.
Thanks Paola for another beautiful video! What a wonderful snow forest you have so close by!! So magical! Thank you for telling about the Gotthard sisters. I've looked them up and watched a video where they tell about themselves. The music is wonderful, reminds me of Riverdance!! That touches my heart every time and makes me cry, because i love it so much! Love to see you dancing outside and jumping on a rock. Take care when you do that sweetie, you've got a little baby inside you 🧡🥰
It’s amazing how you have self doubt, but project such joy and happiness from the simple things in life. I literally look forward to your videos each and every time, and they always inspire me.
Enjoyed your dance in the snow! Your self-worth is who you are, and you Paola are an angelic light in this world. God knows it and so do all of your subscribers!
Wonderful wisdom-sharing video - as always -TY. I was writing a comment to your last video, when someone had to use my iPad, so it never got sent. I guess sharing those thoughts remains important to me, b/c here I am again. When you told us you had taken a step in a relationship that was hard, but important for your personal growth, I started to think about a few times in my life when I have tried to do that. It has never gone well, and almost always, our friendship or relationship ends. The difference, though, is that I am quite sure you approached the task of “clearing the air,” with a sweetness and tone that is so … you. I very much appreciate you sharing that, as I will try to learn from you and do better … if ever in that place again. Blessings to you, Paola … 😊❤️✝️
i love the last song!!! also, I really love how honest you talk with us in the last videos :) thank you for that. and all the blessings to your path of healing ❤
Greetings from Uzbekistan, I really love your lifestyle, please keep it up!
You are really very helpful for a person struggling with addiction mindset! I learn a lot of self love and compassion from you, it is very helping and you are a role model.
Thank you a Paola for another beautiful video. For sharing your journey. You have helped me on mine. You often find words to express just what has been in my heart that I hadn't found words for. Much love to you and your growing family ❤
Self-acceptance can make us suddenly braver and more at peace than we ever thought possible. We're also then better able to share our natural gifts, and mentor others to do the same. You are a gentle yet powerful teacher, much needed these days. Sending love, peace, and hugs. ❤️✌️🤗
Absolutely loved the message in this video. I especially loved when you were talking about valuing your soul. Beautiful message and definitely a video I will come back and relisten to! Thank you for sharing with us!
Paola. I just wanted to share my deep gratitude. As much as I’m trying my best to return to my love of getting lost in a good book, instead of avoiding the challenges of life with RUclips & Netflix, I have, over the past few weeks, fast forwarded through your RUclips life, from your first video until now. Your videos have helped me reset, & shift my inner world more in the direction of that part of myself that is more grounded & authentic…& created a desire to reclaim my playful, innocent child-self; a part of my life that I very much miss. I have been thoroughly enjoying tapping into my creativity, whilst crafting orange garlands & wreaths for my home!…opening the gateway for more projects. May your pregnancy, birth, motherhood & family-life be full of magic & wonder. Oh, & a few childrens’ books that you might like (if you haven’t already come across them) would be the Milly, Molly, Mandy series, the Fern Hollow books & a gorgeous book by Wendy Froud & Terry Windling called “A Midsummer Night’s Faery Tale”. Much love, Rebecca
so much related to these, especially the last two video topic !! I will always practice self love, and put my own needs first, make good rest and health, my growth, my innerchild and my soul with the things I enjoy doing as my first priorities !
A beautiful soul, in a beautiful land, listening to some beautiful music♥
I also have trouble standing up in anyway for myself or my needs. I've been really working on that the past many months. I'm very different than my family. I'm creative,sensitive, & have a huge heart for those less fortunate. My family has some very narrow and racist ideas. As a result they don't include me anymore. I am proud of my heart and my care for others who are suffering and it is how we should be. I don't see too much kindness in them towards others who are different. I can say I have reached some peace with knowing there is nothing I can do to change them and i don't have to keep conforming to what they want to see. Your channel has helped me to understand I will not waste what life I have hoping others around me will change. I am now looking out for myself. ❤ I hope you are feeling wonderful during this special time!
Becca M here,.,I LOVE crows..what a great art piece..many blessings for you and your baby❤️.. Ive never felt good enough and treated that way by family and friends..now at 64, I dont care..its time for me and my husband.,,
Thank you for sharing The Gothard’s Sister’s music. My parents are from Ireland and hearing this music brings me back to beautiful Ireland.
I understand having a low point and feeling like something is ending. I had spine surgery a year and a half ago. It was the hardest thing physically and emotionally I have ever been through. I have to learn to walk again. Now I look back and I feel I have gained so many wisdom and strength through my journey. It realized I am a strong person and I have a strong will to survive and rise above adversity. Keep moving forward always have hope.
I love that music! I really need to start listening to some. You are such a sweet person and so wise. My parents never were happy, so I’m glad to see a young person already like yourself finding your way and worth! ❤
I think you will learn to love yourself as soon as you stop thinking too much about it. I spent over a decade in self improvement, it hardly worked. Then I let go, I have never felt better. I am what I am, like it or not and life is too short to worry too much about it. :-) I think you are wonderful and I wish you could realize it. Hugs.
What a treat to find a new Cottage Fairy video today. I only discovered this channel quite recently. I have now watched every video right from the first one and I have loved them all. Thank you Paola!
I'm getting so many new ideas for fun things to do in the snow. Candle prayer from your last video, dancing in snow! Love it! Thanks for sharing!
There is this old desk I have once used as a computer desk, but now I use it mainly for writing poetry and things and sitting at the table for a snack every now and then.
It's very hard to forgive one's own self for mistakes and shortcomings. I don't know why it should be. I'm almost 67 and still struggle with that. Some people do the most horrible things and never give that a second thought and others beat themselves black and blue for the smallest reasons. To me, when you can accept that you will never be perfect, forgive your own mistakes, and become your own best cheerleader instead of your own worst critic, then you will have mastered the art of self love. Beautiful crow and I'm glad your puppy is doing better!
I found and became an instant fan of the Gothard Sisters last summer! Lovely video as always.
Thank you! Dang! I needed this message. I’ve been sick off and on for three months now of various flu things and have been so down on myself. The house is a mess, I have too much “stuff”, yah da yadda. Just took a deep breath. Now moving on……💕
I absolutely love this video!
🤎 You inspire me to try harder and you sometimes bring both tears and smiles to my face. I am surrounded by your beautiful art in my work station at home. My favorite is the girl and the fox embracing, and all the others you have created. Thanks so much🌻
You are a true inspiration. Thank you for such amazing videos. Sending Love from SanDiego. 😊
Sweet girl, I love your videos. I can tell you this…when you first gaze upon that little face that is you (both), you will never again ponder your love for yourself🙏🏼✌🏽❤️all my best.
A furry cat and a blanket of snow is one of the best things 🥰
Sharing your vulnerability is such a gift to all of us. Thank you for giving all of us light and hope as we struggle with the same self-doubts. I am just now learning to reclaim my soul. You give me inspiration. Thank you!
Such a beautiful place where you live..looks so peaceful there…wise words you share with us …didn’t realize bunnies can be such close pets 🙂
Thank you to generously share your inner world with us! 💫🥰🙏💖✨
I currently suffer from both depression and burned out so this video really spoke to me about self love and boundaries and such. Kindest regards from Sweden
I so needed to hear this. It's been a difficult week, but I know that as long as I'm authentic and true to myself, that's all that matters
Paola! WHAT! a beautiful snowfall! So picturesque!
Your insight to viewing our low points as the beginning and not the end, resonated with me! It's casting off old ideas, thoughts, behaviors, which is cleansing, to being open to new and exciting things! Cleansing and purging!! Out with the old, in with the new! New thoughts, ideas, behaviors,. I struggle with depression, and this time of year - wow! Really have to think and be positive more and to stsy focused on the positive.
You are such a blessing to so many! We all love and cherish you! Enjoy your gorgeous weather!!
xcoo
Your video made me cry Paola. I have never seen snow in my life, It is so beautiful.. Thank you for bringing your world to us. ❤❤❤
I so enjoyed this video, so much in it stood out for me. So many don’t understand why I simply like being home and not always going places, being with people and busy. At 65 I love being home, my cozy, peaceful place where I can be me and do things in my space that I love. I want to claim my own story after years of caring for everyone else. I so needed your messages and thoughts…you get it, thank you❤.
I’m a winter person, always have been and love the tranquility, beauty of glistening snow, shorter days and less “noise”. No one has ever understood that as we live in upstate New York with long beautiful winters that I so love and crave as much as they need sunshine and warmth. I don’t understand why we can’t just be who we are with criticism.
This was just beautiful Paola…..the snow, your home, your cooking….I love to see what you cook and bake. And you had some wonderful wisdom to share. I loved it all. Thank you ❤
I am so enjoying your videos these days. I am soaking up all that you speak about regarding tending to our mental health. When ever I am faced with struggles that have been placed in my path I tend go to inward and get real meditative with my thoughts. It's at times like these that I crave be alone with my thoughts, journaling, walks in nature and reading anything by Pema Chodron. Her books have helped guide me thru many hills and valleys in my life. I also noticed in this video how sweetly you have decorated your home. It reminds me of a cottage that I once lived in that was decorated with treasured items dear to my heart. Glad to hear that your pup is doing much better. Stay well & happy until next time...
Oh Lord, I don't know what it us like to not love yourself, to treat yourself kindly. I feel so sorry for those who don't know who they really are. You are the physical manifestation of The Source energy.....of all that is. You have a spark of God in you. Please, everyone, treat yourself accordingly ❤❤❤
Your little baby is going to grow up in a fairy tale. That’s so awesome ❤
I have been dealing with some health issues, and not knowing what they may mean for the future is scary, but I'm trying to find small joys and things to look froward to.
If I lived where you are I could sit and watch the snow fall all day, it’s mesmerising ❤
I believe we are always learning, about life and ourselves, how we are, how we want to show up in the world.
Lots of love to you and have a wonderful week ❤
It’s so lovely to see you videos, thank you for calming us all. Enjoy this beautiful season. For those people who watch her videos, click a like button (3700 views almost) and ard 1000 likes …. Terrible people 😉 happy weekend folks! Peace and love
