    I feel the most at ease when I'm journaling. I think I feel the most at ease journaling because I think about what I want to write about and then I just let it flow. It is like releasing what I've been feeling and thinking about onto paper.

    i don't comment that much on youtube but i like the idea of "homework" that you give and i love reading about other peoples experiences! to fully relax is actually pretty difficult for me but what always calmes me down and just feels so good is singing out loud! :)

    Hi Carrie! These series couldn’t come in a better time. I’ve watched the first two videos at the hospital. I suffer from headaches and doctors found that I had a frontal sinus thrombosis. So they made me some studies. I’m fine luckily. Just waiting for some blood test results. So I’ve decided to take what happened as an opportunity to change. I was working too much, I was not eating well or sleeping enough.
    I’ve started meditating a few months ago. It’s not easy for me but I will keep practicing it. I decided:
    1. To listen to my body
    2. Eat healthier
    3. Meditate and practice progressive muscle relaxation
    4. Practice gratitude
    5. Focus on positive things and nice people around me and not focus in what I don’t have or people who are not really there for me
    I’ve read something that it’s so true: sometimes you have to unfollow people in real life.
    Love your channel so much. You are a beautiful human being inside and outside. Love from Argentina ❤️🙏🏻

    Honestly girl, you’ve found your niche. You’ve always appeared confident in your videos, but there’s something so different about you in your newest videos, you seem to have so much clarity and you seem so at ease. I’m so happy for you girl :) Here comes a lengthy bit:
    I’m just sending this on here because I know the odds of you seeing it are more likely:
    So on my channel, I’m thinking of starting a series featuring women entrepreneurs of all different kinds who are inspiring and striving to live life to its fullest. You’ve always been a big inspiration to me and you are one of the few content creators who actually motivate me to keep going even when I feel my passion and channel’s going nowhere. I’ve come up with a few title ideas such as: “Beauty, Brains + Bravery”, “Chic Courage”, and “Fearless Females”. I’m leaning towards the latter! I think it has a nice ring to it :) So these videos will be between 5-10 minutes and I would basically just interview you with a few questions about your past, your challenges and setbacks, and your motivations and goals for the future! The world is so scary these days and I think it’s so important that we as females lift each other up. I think females, especially, encounter a lot of challenges in life and have to make a lot of hard decisions & I think it’s something that needs to be discussed more often. So whenever I visit LA next, would that be something you’re interested in? I’m trying to get a hold of a few people to talk with when I visit again soon. It would be a quality video and we could talk about whatever topics you’re interested in discussing! I just think it’s a really fun idea for a video series. ✨ Please let me know your thoughts! I know I’m a smaller creator, but I hope that doesn’t distract you from my purpose and ideas!

    This was all I needed right now; I just started a new internship, and this past week has been so overwhelming and busy - today I felt my mental health start to deteriorate, and I finally found some time alone, and I decided to watch this video. I already feel so much more relaxed, and I am so thankful

    Carrie, I just have to tell you what an inspiration you are to me. I’ve been following you ever since I watched Ingrid’s very first video she mentioned you in. I’m 19 and sometimes I feel like I compare myself to other woman in a lot of different aspects but I find that when I watch your videos or hear what you have to say on Instagram I feel nothing but inspiration and motivation. I was born and raised in Manhattan New York for my whole life and as much as I love it here, sometimes it’s hard to see other people’s amazing lives all over Instagram. But you help me take a step back and realize that social media can sometimes be a net of fleeting fantasy. You help me appreciate all of the amazing things I have in my life. And I thank you for that.
    Xo Lucy ♥️

    Thank you for sharing your experience and highlighting the benefits of meditation. I LITERALLY have had "meditate" on my reminders for 1 1/2 years and I haven't followed through. You have given me the most gentle, yet convincing, push to try and commit to meditating, finally!

  • @madelinehennig5766
    @madelinehennig5766 6 років тому +1

    Thank you for this video!! I'm loving this series and sharing it to my close friends.
    I feel the most relaxed when I'm on my porch in my house in the country. I like to read out there and sometimes mediate. I'll close my eyes and just breathe into the moment. It's so quiet and all I here is the breeze and the birds chirp. I go to college in a busy city, so it's harder for me to relax when I'm there. I'm home for the summer, and I'm loving the stillness and relaxed vibes.

    Your voice is so incredibly serene. You are the best at making calm, tranquil videos.
    I feel relaxed when I am reading. I often find myself wanting to escape thoughts during the day that make me feel anxious and insecure and diving into a story is the perfect way for me to do that. It also usually puts me right to sleep after about 20 minutes!

  • @juliemccullough4592
    @juliemccullough4592 6 років тому

    I’m most relaxed when I’m cooking or singing. They often go hand in hand :) once I’m immersed in cooking a meal my mind goes into a state of flow, and I start singing without even realizing it.

    I feel most relaxed during a bath with candles and soothing meditation music. I also find my getting ready makeup ritual to be very relaxing as well. It makes me feel and look good which puts my mind at ease, and it's 15-20 minutes of alone time away from kids etc.

    Absolutely loving this series Carrie! I always feel most at ease when i'm walking. If I'm stressed or down I take a walk (A beach walk preferably.... water is so calming for me too.) Its almost as if, for me, if i can't do anything about a situation I know I can carry on walking and I think its that certainty or ability to just do something that calms me.

    Carrie, you are an inspiration, seriously.. :) Lately I love to listen here on Yotube nature sounds, one of my
    best sound in the world- crickets, forest sounds and that kind of things (especially at the evenings) just to escape
    for a while from this world and dive into another- forest, or field , etc. And the most of the time it works and it's
    an incredible feeling! Thank you for the another great video of these series! Carrie, you bring the sunsine with you!
    Have a great day and breathe! :) Lots of love from Bulgaria and mee, haha :)

    I feel most relaxed at the end of savasana, after a yoga practice. This is because savasana is the time to soak up all the benefits of the practice.

    Thank you for this one Carrie. I will definitely try this out. I think i am my most relaxed when I am walking after work. I am out of the office and moving and just totally zone out as do my laps. I am not thinking about work and just enjoying the moment outside. This series has been amazing so far. You said "hello my darlings" to start this which is kind of funny, since the hat in my profile pics says darling on it :) I hope you have a fabulous day.

    Thank you Carrie. Your voice is so soothing, you should do a video for us to meditate every once in a while. Take us to this maxing rainforest. I love that moment of relaxation with you. Moment when I feel the most relax are when I do yoga and all the twist and starchy release the tension I did not even know I had. Swimming also is so relaxing, being is water. Watching the stars at night, with no lights around and no noises around except for crickets. Hummmm 😌❤️

  • @terripops
    @terripops 6 років тому

    That was so cool to hear about your meditation experience! That must have felt so good! Do you think it was because of the type of yoga class you were doing? I'm really interested to know more about different styles because I've recently started going to a warm hatha yoga class and I'm so glad I started. I've wanted to do yoga for years but never found the right class to go to but now I'm wondering what took me so long because it feels so right to be doing it. Kind of like I should have been doing it all along.
    The strength that you build is amazing, but I really do enjoy the stretching and pausing. I find that so relaxing - the calm, meditative parts. I have a toddler so it can be hard to find those moments but yoga has created that little slice of peace for me haha and his bed time! Really loved this video, Carrie, you're doing amazing in this series
