10+ Self-Care Ideas to Get You Through

A❤❤❤wesomeness! Thank you for sharing 😊😊😊😊

I’m not a walk hater, I’m a weather hater. The thought of going outside in Canada for the next 5 months makes me cry. I freeze quite easily, even during the summer months when it’s a bit windy, cloudy, or rainy. I am never ready for the impending ice and snow that happens every year. A three month vacation is my DREAM. But right now, anything helps. Thank you.

What’s the chair you have for your cozy nook?? It looks so cozy :)

self care can also be logging off of the internet as a whole, turning comments off, being intentional with what we consume (and firgiving yourself if you go down a rabbit hole)

Love you Kennedy ❤ this is much needed

this community is SO SAFE! I love women <3

Fun ideas! I’d love links to the watercolor workbooks!

I absolutely adore your energy and I agree with you on the whole "environment"-stuff, like make your surrounding match your vibe to relax and the relaxation will come naturally! Stay healthy and keep up the good work Queen!

I’m here cheering maya on! Yay for soup season!

Walking Activity: My bestie and I go on “color walks”.

We choose a color (say orange) and we point out everything we see that’s orange! Traffic cone, pumpkin, cat, chair, etc. It sounds silly but it’s quite entertaining 😁

I tried digital journaling for a couple days and I absolutely love it! Typing on a nice keyboard definitely does more for me than the traditional pen and paper. I hope you make a "digital journal" video one day!! I'd love advice on all the different apps and and things you can use!

Where did you get your type writer keyboard from? It’s so cute!

As a fellow neutral tone decor lover (yours is lovely), do you get hate for it? I notice people have snarky comments on beige/tan home decor more than any other color. It’s just a personal preference

Almost spit out my coffee when you said the soup demon came out lol

What about a self date? Like just going by yourself to get coffee and a book and walk around target with a coffee? I love doing self dates

not me crying while she tedtalks about how important friendships are bc i watched this video to find ways to cheer myself up bc i have social anxiety & really only have one friend :‘)

i'm from sri lanka. Can I write to you? I am a university student in Sri Lanka..I am a girl. I love your videos. I also like cozy things like you. I am inspired by you❤
Plz reply me❤

I loooove all these cozy ideas! Although, please be careful with DIY masks as some ingredients may cause allergy on your skin if you are more sensitive or have skin problems <3

Ahhhh thank you you are literally my sense of community and I appreciate you showing yourself become emotional over the good things in your life because I feel thatttt

I have another idea to share! I have been doing this for years! Each year I create my own 100 List, where I list 100 accomplishments I was to strive for in the next year. It can be as small as trying this new restaurant to I want to file my name change with the court. It helps when I feel those bored, stuck, frozen, dissociative feelings. It brings me back to the present and reminds me of what I want to do. So when those feelings arise, I pull out my list and find one I can accomplish that day, week, or month. I'll schedule me dates. I can share my lists if wanted 🌻🌻

Kennedy could you talk a bit on how to make/cultivate friendship as an adult? It’s been a couple years since I graduated college and feel that it’s sooo difficult to find others who want to foster community in the way you were saying. Signed a very lonely girly in her late 20s 🥲🩷

Just popping in to say that not only is every idea on this list absolutely lovely but your curls are 10/10 amazing beautiful gorgeous!

🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍

your videos are nice, not overstimulating with jump cuts and text, just a nice and calm video

The times you said soup made me lol ❤

where is your mic from lovely xx btw perfect timing for this video wow!

how do you make friends and keep them 😅

What would be your preference for a shower curtain that creates a cozy bathroom? Im thinking a terracotta color or white waffle knit. All i see is florals and i have a floral comforter so i dont want it to be too much

Thank you so so much for this video 💕

Cute Curls 😍 love watching your channel, I love your creations and ideas it’s so cozy 🍂 🤎 I hope you are well Cozy K. I’ve feeling down for past month with my mental health, this video is so relaxing to watch, giving out wonderful ideas and great advice 💡 Thank you so much for your support 😊 you are heart of gold to help others around you💛

The soup demon had me laughing so hard I choked on my coffee 😂😂😂

Omg scrap book recipes!! Imma do this and diamond painting in a journal. Yay!

this inspired me to organize a sleepover!!

girlllll yes thank you I am not a soup person either haha

I first found you when I was going through a rough breakup with my girlfriend. I started watching your videos and it was like I had a new bestie to teach me how to just relax even through one of the hardest times of my life. You are so beautiful and hardworking and amazing at what you do. Seriously, thank you so much for all that you do ❤

Hello everyone, does someone know where her sweater came from ?

Soup

Love the sharing circle idea ❤❤❤ so good for everyone’s mental health especially when it’s intentional and sober! So when is the big cozy friend sleepover happening?? 😂
Thanks for the video! Great ideas 😊

As a certified not-walk-hater, something I introduced into my life in October was scavenger hunt walks. I'd make a list of Halloweeny items I'd look for when out on walks, looking at people's decor. But you could easily make lists that works for whatever season and area you're in, and you can make them as long or short as you want. If you want, you can even give yourself a little treat/reward for checking off all things on your list.

Also, as a side note, those sunlight lamps can be great if you get a proper one, but it DOES NOT impact vitamin D, that is NOT how you are meant to use it. Please know that this is a misconception, and if you are in a position where you need help getting your vitamins, please don't think this lamp will be the solution. By all means, use a sunlight lamp, I am not trying to say it's a scam, but it is not a replacement for other sources of vitamin D.

Your hair is fire 🔥

My “sunlight lamp” makes a huge difference in my seasonal affective disorder. If you’re on the fence, get one! But make sure you use it properly, because it didn’t really work until I used it consistently and correctly. My routine: I have it right beside my bed, plugged into a smart plug. I use it as an alarm, with the time set around 6am during the week and 7am on weekends. It turns on while still laying in bed. When it goes of I place it right beside my pillow, like as close to my face as I can while not looking directly into it. Then I check the weather, read, or do the wordle on my phone, whatever, for 20-30 minutes. Then I start my day 😊. This was game changer for me, and I’d say this resolved about 80% of my SAD. I hope this helps someone ❤

I need Myah’s soup recs

My family calls the sun lamps happy lamps.

I love your channel so much. Thankyou so much lovely ❤

this is a great list!❤

Where is your reading sofa nook from!

💜💜

Thank you sm!! I feel like I'm beginning to notice a difference with the shorter days and feeling a bit down (especially if I get up late lol) I wrote a bunch of these down so hopefully I can plan some fun things for myself ✨

hi cozy friends🤎this was filmed last week, before knowing how much some of us would really need this self-care chat now. while we might not be feeling cheery about the self-care we need, i hope this can still help you decompress & get you through rough times. don't let anyone make you feel bad for how you're feeling. take all the time you need. love you and please know i'll always be a safe space for you.
