Balancing Productivity & Rest ~ a rest and reset vlog

Recommended older shows: (i'm currently re-watching the early seasons of Grey's Anatomy but), True Blood, Teen Titans, Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, & Oz are what i can remember watching over the past 2 years. Literally any older show on HBO is worth it!

If you like Fallout you’ll love Silo!!!! 😊

The cult of the lamb music is so relaxing omg

For pity's sake, I need to know where your outdoor chair comes from during the patio talk 🥺 please please please

The 👀 “see, that would’ve been my last straw if I didn’t have a nice little time outside and centering and finding my peace.” 😂😂😂 SO RELATABLE

The CW Nancy Drew!!!!!!!

The older show you should watch is "weeds' its like breaking bad for the girliepops!!!!

Seconding Buffy the Vampire Slayer (saw at least one other person recommend!) and The X Files! :)

Older series: Weeds, True Blood, X files!!! Also the sopranos and sons of anarchy!

the office, schitts creek, crazy ex gf, extraordinary is new and rlly good

The office is a classic. Stranger Things isn’t an old show but it’s also a great series

Does anyone know where she got the outdoor chair with ottoman? 🤩

Hi Kennedy! Great vid these tips help a lot

Recommend Veronica Mars, Pushing Daisies, Buffy the Vampire Slayer

ken is sleeping on the cozy small town tv genre

I love your videos and I have been watching them for a while now. Every time I overthink and start to feel guilty about taking time to relax and do some hobbies I enjoy, I instantly refer back to your videos and the things you have said or portrayed through your content. You helped me and so many others improve their relationship with down time and I appreciate your work so much for that. Thank you and keep doing you 💗

Your little talk on yearning reminded me of this quote from C.S. Lewis: "If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world."
I believe this was in his book Explaining Christianity. Excellent book!

The Cult of the Lambs music made me so happy! I literally started bopping around my kitchen.

a show I have been enjoying is psych, it's on Netflix

i have to say i LOVE the new outro

glad you did this because ive been wondering....girl do you rest?

Supernatural!

The talk on living in the present is so real. I’ve been talking with my therapist about how I’m in such a good place rn but my mind is always looking to the future but I wanna start being more present. Finding your happiness where you are rn makes your life so much better

Watch Gilmore girls!!

Totally agree on having a good show to put on after work :) it's probably the highlight of my day to sit and watch old tv shows in the evening with my partner.
If your okay with a good mystery or sci-fi I highly highly recommend LOST, X-FIles or Star Gate.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an absolute classic. Rewatched it recently and can’t recommend enough!

Gotta share - I’m all about the cozy vibes lately, and I had to look for your plant playlist for motivation. Keep it up and thanks for all the positivity you put out there!

Where did you get your outdoor couch? It looks so comfy!

Someone once said to me “As humans, we are always hungry. Always hungering for the next thing.” And that has stuck with me. We are always looking forward to another aspect of our lives that we want to change that we think will fill us. Idk what the answer to this constant hunger is, but acknowledging its existence has definitely been an eye opener.

I’ve put this vlog on at least once a week as I do my resets, planning, or reflect on the projects I’m working on (this one or your 2024 soft reset vlog!) and it helps me soooo much to incorporate rest into my routine as a recovering overachiever - I’m so grateful for your videos like this, they have made me feel so much more creative during my designated work hours AND more attentive to caring for myself during down time. Might be the first time in my life that I’m prioritizing rest. Thank you thank you!

Recommendation for tv- Avatar the Last Airbender! I've been watching for the first time and it's really great. Love your channel btw :)

Okay so the idle mind creating new yearnings and hyperfixations is SO real 😅. I’ve been working on this balance myself and the rest brought me more hobbies and tasks - although super fun, being still is just not in my personality 😂. ALSO the house/garden hyperfixation omgggg. I have a house that’s for sale saved for like 18months and have a pinterest dream board for it and everything. I will never get this house. This house is like 1.6mil and ya girl is never going to have that. Will it stop me decorating and designing it? No 😂🤍

sometimes I get upset when I don't get everything done but once I write down my to do list I realize I'm just being unreasonable and we can't be productive all the time. We need down time and we need to relax to feel refreshed for the following day (:

Im so late to this but I just heard you ask for shows. It’s almost fall so I’ll be watching Gilmore Girls again 😅

Old show rec - the nanny!

I just finished my all time fav show for the third time lol it’s that 70s show

You need to watch "New Girl"!!😊

Old show: ER! So classic.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the best during the fall!

I watched SATC when I was in college with one of my best friends and it will always hold a special place in my heart 😅

Shows I would recommend: Buffy, True Blood, Community, Twin Peaks (has PNW fall vibes!), Ozark, Bates Motel, The Good Place, Miracle Workers and Schitts Creek!

Hear me out - Hart of Dixie. It’s one of my favorite comfy shows

Might be a little late but Prison Break, Breaking Bad or Shameless. Even though they’re old I’m only just watching them for the first time this year

Get into Psyche 😊

I wonder if you might make a podcast in the future? You are so good at expressing yourself. 😊

Eureka, Haven, One Tree Hill, 😊

i know im late but watch one tree hill!!!

That cushion is awesome. You rock at cozy furniture. 😂
