    To watch your videos is one of my anti-stress essentials :)

    I know this is weird, but when I am stressed, I talk to myself out loud. I in a sense, split myself into to personalities. The first is my inner self. The childish me that is lost and full of emotions and the second one is the mature, logical me. Then I make my childish self ask my mature self for advice. For some reason, after doing that, I always feel like I just talked to my mom or my grandmother.
    I think it's because I allow myself to organize all of my random stressful thoughts into two imaginary people.

      I thought it was just me! It's one of the most helpful things I do when I'm stressed tbh.

      I totally do that. I basically act out what is stressing me out. Until I find that it’s been dealt with lol

    Oh my god, perfect timing! I was feeling a little tired then I saw you video. I lit my salt crystal candle, inhaled a blend of metabolizing essential oils, did deep breaths, and made myself chamomile tea. I'm feeling better already, thanks for sharing!

    • @meghanlivingstone
      @meghanlivingstone  8 років тому

      Aw that is wonderful! I'm just about to light a candle and drink some tea, too!

    Thanks! Another anti-stress tip is watching other people deal with stress. By doing so, not only can you get some useful advice, you also realize you are not the only one to actually have stress (or any other kind of trouble), which helps to get through it.

    • @meghanlivingstone
      @meghanlivingstone  8 років тому +1

      Absolutely, I agree! It really helps to be able to relate to others and know we're not always alone in what we're struggling with :)

    it's so cool how your videos are helpfull and somewhat serious, but at the same time you can be a bit funny sometimes, kinda takes the edge off.
    this helped, thanks!

    Wow! You can draw! that picture is impressive. Thanks for the video and the tips. I love the smell of bees wax candles. What is he best way to take ashwaganda and rhodiola? I have them in tinctures but obviously there's a slight amount of alcohol as a preservative in them. Do you have any advice on this?

    • @Beepbopboop19
      @Beepbopboop19 8 років тому

      Angela Dyson Ashwagada can cause possible miscarriages, or issues for pregnant women, so careful if trying for a baby:)

    • @angeladyson7367
      @angeladyson7367 8 років тому

      Tara Hays Thank you so much; good advice and perfect timing for the advice. What about Rhodiola; can this also carry the same risk? 😐

    • @angeladyson7367
      @angeladyson7367 8 років тому

      Tara Hays After your advice I decided to look up Rhodiola as I just queried that with you as well. Apparently Rhodiola can aid the thyroid, correct irregular menstral cycles as well as be an aid in preparing for healthy pregnancy so I'll add that along with a few other things I know about. Have a good day. 😊

    Hey there, I just found your channel and I really like the topics of your videos!
    I started a channel in August of this year, about my musical progress as an adult beginner violinist. I'm thinking of making videos about other topics as well, and because I'm a fan of simplifying/goalsetting/bullet journaling/minimalism, I searched and stumbled upon your channel. I like it and I subbed. 😊

    I am going to buy some clay and start sculpting! I really like doing it and i forgot how relaxing it is. It was something that didn’t really have a point because the finished products don’t look very good lol. But I do love it and it is so relaxing and fun! Great advice :)

    • @meghanlivingstone

      @jackieg6926 7 років тому

      Meghan Livingstone my favorite is buying a huge chunk of clay from a pottery store and just making anything! The best part is you can keep using that clay over and over again if you keep it sealed properly!

    I really want to get one of those salt lamps now! I LOVE working out (yes to weight lifting, running or yoga), getting out in nature and Améo's clinical grade essential oil blend called calming breeze. Immediately helps calm me and relieve my desire to bite my nails.

      just a heads up, anyone with a lower blood pressure should be careful with it! I never heard about it being problematic, but one suggested dose honestly made me almost pass out for whole day - and only when researching specifically about this I found that it can be problematic!

      You can do the lamp/candles, magnesium, and essential oils. Depending on the ages of your kids maybe you can all go for a walk, do yoga together which can incorporate breathing, play sports, or dance around the house. After they go to bed, you can take 5min in bed to journal. Hope these help!
