I appreciate you showing us what your apartment actually looks like when you haven't cleaned it. It's relatable and very real. Social media is too often staged and a fake reality so it's refreshing to see how someone actually lives sometimes and that I'm not a complete loser or the only messy one when my house is disheveled.
Lauren the clothes you wear,your hair,your stacks of books,your soap holder,your home,you and John cooking together,everything is just sooo comforting and inspiring to watch... Thank you for just being you!!! 🍣🥟🍡☕🥧🫖🍵🕯📓🖋📚
Lauren, I just wanna say your channel is my absolute favorite on youtube, it's my absolute comfort space. I look forward to your new vid every. single. week. Love from Berlin!!
Your vlogs have taught me how to slow down and enjoy the simple things in life. I have two teenagers, hubby, full time work, but your vids remind me to carve out some alone time and do the things I love: read, write, potter around the house. Thank you girl. ❤
Thank you for this video. I'm currently going through a cold and 0 degree weather and the friendly reminder to do the things that actually make you feel good is so refreshing.
I never wanted to like/get into exercising, but then I got that same desperate feeling you mentioned to change something. I started out with just stretching every day which made a huge difference, and then I started using walking and a mini stepper as a more intense workout and I can feel the mental and physical difference. I might not be using a gym or big weights but tbh any movement that makes me sweat seems to do the trick. I used to roll my eyes when people would mention physical activity for depression but now I fully get it.😌✨✨
Thank you for your tips to stay happy during winter. I'm having a hard time, winter makes me feel sad and anxious but it's true that we have to force ourselves to move and go outside.😊
Thank you for this video - one of my all-time faves of yours, actually! This was exactly what I needed at the start of the year - a positive and encouraging video that is also realistic and cosy and relatable and about finding joy in the little things - not just full of things I should buy, toxic positivity, and unattainable goals I feel like I need to set and inevitably fail to meet. Love your vibe and your space; thanks so much for sharing it with us!
Good job with the dumplings! I live in China and I too made dumplings for the first time this winter with my in-laws, it’s a very connecting experience. Hope you enjoyed yours!
Hi Lauren - I loved this video! So cozy, and the format of "7 habits" kept me watching from start to finish! Would love to hear more book reactions sprinkled into videos like this as you're in the process of reading. Lastly, loved the cooking scene at the beginning. I can't relate to what sooo many UA-camrs cook so it's refreshing to see something that I'd actually have a good time making!
It’s amazing to me that in such a cold winter, your apartment is warm enough to lounge around in shorts and T shirt! I live in the uk and we are so bundled up even with the heating on most of the time!
Lol I'm in the UK and I had exactly the same thought watching this! Not just with Lauren but with most North American vloggers I watch. I was like...during winter in the UK in our homes we'll be in three jumpers, a dressing gown, clutching a hot water bottle and curled up under a blanket. And I know it's nowhere near as cold here as it is somewhere like Winnipeg, for example! I have wondered if it's a class thing - possibly it's just that the vloggers I watch have enough money to have their heating on high all the time, whereas for myself and people I know it's a matter of having the heating on a few hours each day and no more usually. But possibly something to do with the way houses are built as well?
Happy New Year! Thank you for these lovely tips for how to stay happy during the winter months. I have a hard time in the winter and one thing is not moving enough. Going to have to try moving more. I also don't get out much. need to go for more walks. :) Thanks so much and have a lovely 2025!
Just found your channel because this video was in my recommended and wow, I’m so obsessed with you and your style! If you haven’t already, pls pls show a little tutorial of how you did that up-do you had when you were making the dumplings as well as the half up half down look you were rocking on the day you cleaned your house. So cute!!! 🤎
Omg I just found your account! 1. Birdcage is my favorite movie 2. I JUST finished reading Oranges are not the only fruit 3. We have the same haircut. I sooo want to be your friend haha
I just found your videos and this was the best, most realistic exercise reaction I’ve ever seen on UA-cam! Thank you!!! Also, stay warm! PNW still doesn’t have snow.
When Lauren says it’s cold, it IS actually cold! I’ve checked, because I’m curious like that and it’s minus 20 degrees Celsius (and even colder) in Winnipeg. Stay warm, girly, I don’t know how you do it! ❄️
Sono assolutamente d'accordo con te, muoversi fare ginnastica deve essere una cosa che ci fa stare bene, non c'è bisogno di identificarsi in tutte quelle persone che si vedono su youtube super in forma, super belle, vestite alla moda, ognuno è come è, bisogna solo amarsi❤.grazie per il video e grazie per essere così ❤❤
It might be a good idea to get a nail with a head big enough to prevent the soap dish from being knocked off the wall if that’s not what you already did! If it was me, I would definitely accidentally knock it off the wall while reaching up for the soap😅
vv always has weights! my fingers feel cramped from the art book haha, but an amazing suggestion that we don't need to fit into that culture, xoxo love your channel
How would you describe the style of your home? I know you love mid century pieces. I love your homes style and want to recreate it but not sure what to look up on Pinterest.
ok, third comment i know, but i feel like we like so many similar things and I hope i run into you in the wild someday. Secondly, felt like knitception when i was knitting watching your video of you crocheting watching another video.
Hi Lauren! Is that a teflon pan? If so, do not use metal spoons/utensils when cooking with them. It scratches off the coating and releases very toxic chemicals that way! Anyway, loved the vlog ❤️
Que loco! yo vivo en un país donde los meses tristes son de verano, temperaturas de 45 grados, sin mar, aguas de rios y arroyos contaminadas. Durante los días de extremo calor tenemos muchos cortes de luz por la sobrecarga de energía, entre otras cosas terribles que vivimos en Paraguay. Nunca viví en un lugar extremadamente frío pero siento que escapar del frío es más posible que escapar del calor, el calor quita el sueño, te enferma, te desespera, te deprime.
It's a shame you turned off the comments on your recent video, there was a really productive and nuanced conversation happening in the comments that is rare to see.
You and you’re entire friend group look like you just stepped out of a young-adult novel that takes place in the 70s and I am so here for it
They're going to be so happy to hear that☺Thank you!
I love this comment. They’re all so beautiful

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it
yesss the adam sandler workout vibe is where it's at. taking the pressure off in that way has been huge for me.
I looooove looking like a slob while working😊

Using your art history textbook as a weight brought me so much joy haha.

Thank you Lauren, i needed that! ❤
Happy new year Lauren!!
Oranges are not the Only Fruit is such a good book!!!

It might be a good idea to get a nail with a head big enough to prevent the soap dish from being knocked off the wall if that’s not what you already did! If it was me, I would definitely accidentally knock it off the wall while reaching up for the soap😅
You look like a character in a book wow bless u
being willing to try anything and finding exercise is so real 😭
I hate to admit it but it's so true
I love Joni's symmetrical eye patches.
your new chair looks SO cozy!!

Loved this ♡
Just got recommended your channel and lovvvve your style and vibe! Also what did you think of the Love Witch? I loved it ✨✨✨

Happy New Year Lauren. Please could you share which movies are featured in the video? Would love to add them to my watch list 🙏🏻💕✨
Your hair! Your nails!
would love to know the recipe to the dumpling sauce, that looks delish!

Hey I was wondering where your jeans are from in this video? Thank you!!😊
omg I also watched that Witches documentary on Mubi on the 1st of the year
What is the canned ingredient you added to the chai?
Hi Lauren! Is that a teflon pan? If so, do not use metal spoons/utensils when cooking with them. It scratches off the coating and releases very toxic chemicals that way!
Anyway, loved the vlog ❤️

Okay I must know, where in the world did you get your Canterbury Dance sweater? I am tickled to no end by how small this country is
What’s that lip product you used at the ?! The color is beautiful
This is so random, but wondering which phone case you have? It's so perfect!
What movie is that you're watching with the witch? Looks so lovely :)
I love this video so much!! I think you've answered this before so I'm sorry for the repetition but what shade of nail polish do you use?
If youre ever in west michigan they have wonderful chai lattes at Global Infusion ;)
I love your bathrobe! Where is it from?
It's a shame you turned off the comments on your recent video, there was a really productive and nuanced conversation happening in the comments that is rare to see.

Wait, so you are telling me you have not brushed your teeth but have a full face of no makeup makeup going on?
I know some people prefer to wait after breakfast to brush their teeth but I never heard of leaving the house without brushing lol
Thanks for just existing, Lauren. 🫶🫒
