Man the production quality on these videos is crazy, they got no business being this good, you truly deserve many more followers than these. i'm glad i've found this hidden gem of a channel
my jaw dropped when u showed videos of you meditating in all four seasons. WOW! its only a matter of weeks or few months before your channel explodes. top quality content as well.
I feel like I've found a hidden gem on youtube (your channel :) ) As for the video: I like the "wheel of life" concept. It basically shows that when people concentrate on one aspect of life too much they automatically tend to neglect other parts. Work-life balance is a popular phrase, but I also think that life-life balance is very important :)
Thank you - that's so kind! I could not agree more, sometimes we feel sad and we feel like everything is bad but actually when you look at it most life 'categories' are doing OK, just some of them are dominating our sense of happiness!
@@emilysha418 thanks for noticing! I definitely did not want to add to the overwhelm - sometimes myself when I watch all the self improvement content I get overwhelmed and I feel like I am not enough!
Hi! I encountered your channel by mistake, and after watching two videos - This one and Huberman's daily routine, I must say it's amazing I relate to so many things that you are talking about, especially regarding how to cope with stress. Keep it up with the amazing content and the high-quality production! you rock!
I cant stop myself from commenting regarding the video production quality - videography, video quality and editing Omg! Its top quality. Minimalistic and color theory applies well!
How am I only just discovering you! This really helped me today because I too have been struggling with extreme stress, trying to juggle school and work and life in general. I can feel a dip in my health and it’s truly terrifying. I am definitely at the point where I want to give up. But after watching this, I’ve decided to not give up and just drop a “ball” I can recover from. Thank you!
So nice to hear from my namesake! It’s good to have a little cry every now and then, I like to think of it as ‘cleansing for the heart’ ❤️ sending you warm hugs and hope things get easy and smooth again soon!
I don’t know how your channel, or more importantly this video, found it’s way to me but I’am so grateful. Each video has been carefully curated and appears reinforced with empirical evidence. The production quality is perfect and you are so easy to listen and relate to. Please continue to make videos ❤️ I need them in my life.
I have moved in Turkey from Afghanistan and it is the first time I am living alone far from my family members. I broke a serious and long lasted relationship which was so hard to come out of it. Plus, as a girl in Afghanistan in this harsh situation of my country, I lost my job. And suddenly my world became upside down. Still, adjusting with a new environment is a whole another animal. I am lost, to be precise, and do not know which ball should I opt for juggling. Most of the times I even lose my path. Consequently, I criticize myself a lot to the point that I thought maybe I have gotten some mental problems. However, after watching your video, I feel soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo calm and serine. I am sure I can sleep well tonight. And I know I should follow you for more videos and tips. More people need you and need to find your channel. Please keep on strongly like you do. With love and respect.
Honestly it’s so hard to say anything to this because I know you have even through so much! You definitely should grant yourself self love, patience and understanding. Some years all we can do is survive and that’s a feat in itself. You have been extremely strong and brave! At the same time, please don’t feel alone - if I leant anything from making my videos is that more people than we realize share our thoughts and feelings of isolation, hopeless and being lost. Sending you lots of love and light! Hope 2024 is a beautiful year for you, filled with happiness, health and joy.
Yours and Life of Riza have been the 2 coolest channel finds in recent months. It’s a bit like watching peaceful, beautiful, informative, and occasionally thought provoking art, which is a much needed change of pace on UA-cam. Cheers!
Thank you so much for such kind words! I also really admire Life of Riza, she is amazing! I have a long long way to get closer to her level I feel but I am so grateful for the comparison! Have a lovely day!
incredible video! i really needed this today ❤ I'm defo one of those people that treats every ball as glass. wonderful tips, short and sweet, and amazing production quality! 🥰
What you said about watching/reading stories of struggle & success is also what Dr Huberman mentions as a key practice in his Gratitude podcast. I would absolutely LOVE a list of books, shows, etc that helped you in this way. Cannot wait to start trying this out.
Thank you for sharing! I will be making a longer video about movies and books that changed my life, but for now will pin a short list in the top comment :)
Sorry it took me forever@@zuz1162 ! Here it is: Movies -- V for Vandetta, Into the Wild, Pursuit of Happyness, Shawshank Redemption, 8 Mile are some ideas that come to my head! Books -- Count of Monte Cristo, Where the Crawdads Sing, Women Who Run with Wolves, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, Little Women, Anne of Green Gables, The Kite Runner, The Book Thief -- there are countless more but these are off the top of my head :) I will make a video about the movies with some more ideas in the coming month :)
Wowsers, I’m so impressed by your videos, the attention to detail in the b-roll , the graphics and the message itself. You also have over a thousand more subscribers than the last time I commented (which was yesterday I think?!) Well deserved for sure. What advice would you give to a small UA-camr about patience with growth? I feel like I really try to make my videos better, but struggle with views. Your content seems extremely polished for relatively low subs. Is this your first/only channel?
I am 100% still a small UA-camr also learning haha but thank you SO MUCH! One of the best pieces of advice I heard on UA-cam that really stick with me was to provide value, and what really helps with that is writing and delivering your videos as if you were speaking to a younger self. It is quite certain there are people in the same situation you were in a few years ago (maybe even a few months ago) and they could benefit from your advice or even just words of support! Good luck, I am rooting for you!
I appreciate you sharing your story at the begining. I am going through a very similar situation and I am very overwhelmed. I really liked the theory of wheel of life and I think it’s a one that will help me prioritise certain areas of my life and that I can review maybe on a monthly bases. Amazing video!☺️
Some months I can jiggle all the balls perfectly, then one drop and I get sad, then another kind of goes slippery, but I manage to get back, and everything repeats. Sure there will be time in my life where I will have it all, then another time will come where I will drop something, and all over again. Guess it is never ending process of constant fluctuations and we need to live with them in peace.
Sounds like what I experienced! Just remember never to neglect your mental and physical health, because then you are forced to drop them all! Stay well!
Thank you for this video, it resonates a lot! I really like the way you image the concepts you're talking about, by playing them yourself rather than picking images or video excerpts. That's great work! Also really like the asethetics of your small drawings and icons. Thank you for these little things :)
Your videos are beautiful and your content is inspiring. After watching a handful of your videos I found myself wondering, why hasn't her channel blown up? Why doesn't she have tens of thousands of views on every video? I now have a theory about that... Your videos are TOO perfect. I think you'd be wise to sprinkle some vlog-style videos into your content. Something that is less scripted and more conversational. Like, "day in the life" videos, or personal challenges that we see you try... Who is this stylish girl with an accent living in London...? I think people blow up when they start to become almost like "friends" on the internet. Your videos, because they are all so perfectly done, feel more like a personal development course. The filming/lighting, etc. is all so amazing that it looks more like a commercial sometimes... Too curated perhaps? Don't get me wrong, I don't think you should stop making these types of videos--they are your strength--they are AMAZING. But if you want to grow your audience, I'd recommend changing your channel name to your actual name (that I don't know despite watching quite a few videos) and making some less polished more chatty, vlog-style videos--so we feel like we know YOU. Just.a friendly suggestion from someone who doesn't actually make YT videos but watches a lot!!! (If this is what you love to do and what makes you happy... ignore me!) x
Thanks so much for giving it thought and sharing your honest opinion, I appreciate it! You know, to be honest, I want to share so much, and a lot of my 'personal story' and also some of the more difficult things I have been through.. but it is just so hard, I decided to keep it very gradual. Being 'on the Internet' and in some ways being judged and watched, is very new to me! When I started the channel I wanted to make mental health content but soon discovered I choke up when I start filming so I did a few 'travel videos' as it was easier. Only recently I started topics that interest me, progressively getting more personal. I hope soon, one day I will be able to be even more vocal and open! My name is Daria by the way - lovely to meet you!
@@lostinadmiration I can only imagine how vulnerable it is to put stuff on the internet. Half the time I can hardly share a brief Facebook status. Haha. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Looking forward to more content!
Incredibly valuable content, thank you! Can't wait for you to start offering a membership so we could support you more. Looking forward to next videos, thanks!
Thank you for your videos! I rarely comment on UA-cam but I must express how much appreciated I am when watching your videos. They are rich in useful information and very professionally presented. Keep up your good work! I look forward to your next videos!
Thank you so much - I appreciate it very much and it helps me stay motivated to keep creating videos ❤️ hope I won't disappoint! Stay well and sending you good thoughts
Hey! Great content. I could totally relate in Catharsis point. Could you please recommend some dramas, movies or books for that purpose? Thank you, and all the best.
Thank you for watching and your kind words! I love 'Never Let me Go' - both the book and the movie. I think it is about how those who were not given the privilege of normal human existence would truly cherish it. Also, V for Vandetta (the movie) - I think it shows how suffering can shape us in a positive way too. Also 'Pursuit of Happyness' (movie) about how much we would do for others.
I found a video of yours last night, and you immediately became my favorite youtuber. Ive only watched three of your videos but just the first one alone made me want to work on myself and try harder in being better and happier than i am. And i relate so many thing you say and understand you well, im grateful to have found you ♡
Your message made me very very happy, thank you so much! This is the best thing to hear and really motivates me to create more so thank you! Sending you best wishes, have a good weekend ❤
Had been away from UA-cam for a while. I feel so happy to see you galloping from 1k to 10k since our last interaction. The journey to 1k had been a long one. But this has been so quick. No power on this planet can impede the invincible passion of a person who embarks to pursue a task with courage and enthusiasm. Your accomplishment is a living testimony of it. 😊
I found your channel yesterday and today I got this recommendation right on time. When I am stressed and overwhelmed and I feel like I am juggling too many of balls. Many of them are not mine but I worry if I stop juggling then noone will take care of them and pieces from a broken glass balls will pierce me the most. Thank you for this video.. I feel better after watching it.
Ah that sounds like such a tough situation and a very difficult decision! What I always try to remember myself -also remind my mom who is also in a situation like you described very often - is that if you get sick, drained, if you neglect your mental health, then you won't be able to handle any balls at all. So to do things for others, or take on some 'extra' balls, you have to be sure you are not doing this at the expense of how you feel. Which I know often is impossible, but just try your best to remember to take care of yourself!!!
Love watching your journey on UA-cam! You're so talented at storytelling and videography. Thanks for these tips! Can I ask what camera you use to film?
After a stressful day, I sought to ease my mind by browsing for some nice content on UA-cam. I came across your channel when your Huberman video appeared on my feed. I usually struggle to watch entire videos, but the calmness in your voice, the aesthetics of your content, and the way you structure information kept me engaged. Your videos are so engaging, pleasant and relaxing, and I resonate with everything you say. Thank you; I definitely needed this today.
I am so so happy to hear this! This is the best motivation for me to keep creating 😍🥹 also makes me feel less alone in my struggles to know others feel the same so thank you!!!!
Hello , Am new to your channel and absolutely love your content, the way you are expressing and encouraging , i have learnt so much from 2-3 of your videos , am looking forward to implement in my life and my dear ones , thank you so much for such great content , i hope you do well at all times !
I will! For now, of the top of my head, I love V for Vandetta (featured in this video) - makes me cry each time and I really love how Natalie Portman played, Into the Wild is also very very beautiful, so many feeling there that resonate with me plus beautiful cinematography filmed and Alaska, with beautiful music.. just a gem. Also maybe the Pursuit of Happyness :) stay well ❤
Thank you! We (me and my partner) do not use any LUTs. Rather than using luts, we'd recommend using DaVinci Resolve for color grading (it is an amazing tool that gives you a lot of flexibility and you can find a ton of tutorials on YT on how to use it). This color grade is not very sophisticated, we focused a lot more on lighting and learning about color contrast.
I think a lot of the struggles we deal with as adults stem from childhood experiences. I have GAD and many days i just feel on edge the whole time and i just cant shake the feeling. Waking early in the mornings around 3-6am are particularly bad for me when im still half conscious and all my fears seem to be in my body and my head. My parents had a very rocky relationship and both are very cold and show zero emotional support, they will mock their kids in front of others if they show any sign of mental health issues. Now i understand where all my issues originate from, especially social anxiety and feelings of not being worthy or good enough. Thank you for sharing your experience, very comforting and i shall try some of your techniques 🙏
I also have anxiety, although with different roots - but you are right, our childhood shapes us so much! I love how Gabor Mate explores that in his books (you can even see his book on my desk in the first seconds, When the Body Says No). At my worst times with anxiety, I tried EFT which is a method that many PTSD soldiers do, it is very physical - I think if meditation/mindfulness do not help this could be something to try! So many people struggle, I am so grateful we live in times when it is OK to admit it and more and more people talk openly about it. Thank you for sharing your experience too! Sending you good thoughts!
@lostinadmiration Yes i am familiar with Dr Gabor Mate, he is how i first found out about the long term mental health effects of parenting on a child. Owning his book you must be well versed in this area, whereas ive only watched a few of his videos. Its so interesting and has definitely made me become a better dad to my 10yo boy. Ive heard of EFT being effective for some people, but never really looked into it any deeper. Now you recomend it i think ill give it a go. Is it best to find a local EFT specialist? I do a lot of daily meditation, mindfulness and exercise which definitrely helps, however there's certain times when im overwhelmed and my mind rumination / bodily sensations are just so intense, and my negative beliefs just take over. I am so grateful we have YouYube where we can communicate with others and not feel alone, especially with creators like yourself brave enough to show your face and share your struggles. Watching and listening to your videos feels like i have a friend with me. Thank you so much for making them, you certainly have a gift in video editing! 🙏
Znalazłam Twój kanał przypadkiem. Bardzo dobrze zrobione video. Twój spokój, ciekawy sposób prowadzenia narracji, piękne ujęcia, montaż, wszystko jest spójne i takie klimatyczne. Bardzo miło się to ogląda. Dziękuję. To była prawdziwa przyjemność.
I feel that I am now! I have my partner and a few friends I would die for (although we are not in the same towns which is hard) and my parents are the best (here I won a lottery). My dad had a very hard childhood, and his context was difficult so also I know how hard it is to heal from such a situation, how much will and strength it takes. You are so right, these are probably most important together with health!
@@lostinadmiration great to hear! Indeed relationship and health. Health nowadays is easy to improve unless it is genetic. I myself am struggling sometimes with diet or physical movement but I know this is in my own hands. Relationships (especially family) is something you do or do not have. Might be possible to improve but it for a certain part is given. Good friends or love is sometimes also hard to find.
@@seniorkevin that’s true though I have to say I had a few moments in my life where health seemed a bit out of my control. There are so many autoimmune conditions or just bizarre diseases no one knows how to treat.. it also seems a lottery sometimes! So if you have decent heath, that’s a treasure!
@@lostinadmiration yeah these are the hardest however I found out vague health symptoms can almost always be solved by healthy patterns. (low carbs /sugars, a lot of fruit, no overdose caffeine, enough sleep or movement etc). Sometimes finding out about allergies in your diet like lactose/gluten can help too!
Thank you for this. I only came across your channel a few days ago, and I love the calm, beautiful nature of your videos. I’d never heard of the wheel of life idea, but I love it. Will definitely be trying that today x
Man the production quality on these videos is crazy, they got no business being this good, you truly deserve many more followers than these. i'm glad i've found this hidden gem of a channel

No power on this planet can impede the invincible passion of a person who embarks to pursue a task with courage and enthusiasm. Your accomplishment is a living testimony of it. 😊
Thank you for your support since the very beginning Shashwat! I really appreciate it! Hope things are going well for you ☺️
@@lostinadmiration Yes. Thanks Daria. Everything going well here🙂
@@Shashwat_1729 happy to hear!
Very helpful and nice, thank you so much
So nice of you- thank you guys!
Excellent video! Thank you!
Thank you sooo much! Means so much!
Just one word "Extraordinary" ❤
That means so much - thank you!
I found your channel yesterday and today I got this recommendation right on time. When I am stressed and overwhelmed and I feel like I am juggling too many of balls. Many of them are not mine but I worry if I stop juggling then noone will take care of them and pieces from a broken glass balls will pierce me the most. Thank you for this video.. I feel better after watching it.
Ah that sounds like such a tough situation and a very difficult decision! What I always try to remember myself -also remind my mom who is also in a situation like you described very often - is that if you get sick, drained, if you neglect your mental health, then you won't be able to handle any balls at all. So to do things for others, or take on some 'extra' balls, you have to be sure you are not doing this at the expense of how you feel. Which I know often is impossible, but just try your best to remember to take care of yourself!!!
@@lostinadmiration Thank you very much! This is very wisdom advice and I will be reminding myself this in hard times!
@@mklapouchy thank you - means a lot!

Love watching your journey on UA-cam! You're so talented at storytelling and videography. Thanks for these tips! Can I ask what camera you use to film?
Of course! It is Sony a7s III, linked it together with other gear in the description! Thank you soooo much 😊
👍
Thanks!
After a stressful day, I sought to ease my mind by browsing for some nice content on UA-cam. I came across your channel when your Huberman video appeared on my feed. I usually struggle to watch entire videos, but the calmness in your voice, the aesthetics of your content, and the way you structure information kept me engaged. Your videos are so engaging, pleasant and relaxing, and I resonate with everything you say. Thank you; I definitely needed this today.
I am so so happy to hear this! This is the best motivation for me to keep creating 😍🥹 also makes me feel less alone in my struggles to know others feel the same so thank you!!!!
another amazing video! couldn't have seen this at a better time
Thank you so much! I am so happy to hear this!
Can't wait to see your channel growwwww!! Glad to have discovered you, keep them coming
Thank you so much!! Means a lot!
Hello ,
Am new to your channel and absolutely love your content, the way you are expressing and encouraging , i have learnt so much from 2-3 of your videos , am looking forward to implement in my life and my dear ones ,
thank you so much for such great content ,
i hope you do well at all times !
That's the best thing I could hear and so encouraging to keep making videos! Thank you, means a lot! Also sending you warm thoughts, stay well!
Love that I found this video on november 5th and plan to watch V for Vendetta tonight as per my tradition :) such a powerful movie
I also do this every year! I was actually thinking about it when picking a movie to watch while filming! So happy someone picked it up! Enjoy 💥 🎆
I don't know why UA-cam brought me here, but this video hits home hard. Thank you.
That means so much - thank you!
Please, post the movie and book list you mention! I find that way of catharsis really helps me too.
I will! For now, of the top of my head, I love V for Vandetta (featured in this video) - makes me cry each time and I really love how Natalie Portman played, Into the Wild is also very very beautiful, so many feeling there that resonate with me plus beautiful cinematography filmed and Alaska, with beautiful music.. just a gem. Also maybe the Pursuit of Happyness :) stay well ❤
Excellent! Subbed!
Can you please tell what lut you use?
Thank you! We (me and my partner) do not use any LUTs. Rather than using luts, we'd recommend using DaVinci Resolve for color grading (it is an amazing tool that gives you a lot of flexibility and you can find a ton of tutorials on YT on how to use it). This color grade is not very sophisticated, we focused a lot more on lighting and learning about color contrast.
Ciesze się że twój kanał mnie znalazł, widać ile pracy wkładasz w każdy filmik :3
Jak mi milo - dziekuje pieknie :)
I think a lot of the struggles we deal with as adults stem from childhood experiences. I have GAD and many days i just feel on edge the whole time and i just cant shake the feeling. Waking early in the mornings around 3-6am are particularly bad for me when im still half conscious and all my fears seem to be in my body and my head. My parents had a very rocky relationship and both are very cold and show zero emotional support, they will mock their kids in front of others if they show any sign of mental health issues. Now i understand where all my issues originate from, especially social anxiety and feelings of not being worthy or good enough. Thank you for sharing your experience, very comforting and i shall try some of your techniques 🙏
I also have anxiety, although with different roots - but you are right, our childhood shapes us so much! I love how Gabor Mate explores that in his books (you can even see his book on my desk in the first seconds, When the Body Says No). At my worst times with anxiety, I tried EFT which is a method that many PTSD soldiers do, it is very physical - I think if meditation/mindfulness do not help this could be something to try! So many people struggle, I am so grateful we live in times when it is OK to admit it and more and more people talk openly about it. Thank you for sharing your experience too! Sending you good thoughts!
@lostinadmiration Yes i am familiar with Dr Gabor Mate, he is how i first found out about the long term mental health effects of parenting on a child. Owning his book you must be well versed in this area, whereas ive only watched a few of his videos. Its so interesting and has definitely made me become a better dad to my 10yo boy.
Ive heard of EFT being effective for some people, but never really looked into it any deeper. Now you recomend it i think ill give it a go. Is it best to find a local EFT specialist?
I do a lot of daily meditation, mindfulness and exercise which definitrely helps, however there's certain times when im overwhelmed and my mind rumination / bodily sensations are just so intense, and my negative beliefs just take over.
I am so grateful we have YouYube where we can communicate with others and not feel alone, especially with creators like yourself brave enough to show your face and share your struggles. Watching and listening to your videos feels like i have a friend with me. Thank you so much for making them, you certainly have a gift in video editing! 🙏
I will try the wheel of life concept next time I feel super overwhelmed and stressed. It sounds like it would help me :) great video as always ♥
Thank you so much :) means a lot! Do you have a template you like, or would you like me to share mine?
@@lostinadmiration if you could share yours that would be amazing! thanks
Znalazłam Twój kanał przypadkiem. Bardzo dobrze zrobione video. Twój spokój, ciekawy sposób prowadzenia narracji, piękne ujęcia, montaż, wszystko jest spójne i takie klimatyczne. Bardzo miło się to ogląda. Dziękuję. To była prawdziwa przyjemność.

The balls analogy ....is so great and refreshing......happy to be here Daria❤
Thank you so much, I was worried I overcomplicated it!
@@lostinadmiration not at all....just perfect💖
@@ShreyaSaun so happy to hear! Have a lovely weekend 😍
@@lostinadmiration u too love 💖
Personally I feel family & friends and love are way harder to improve then other parts of the wheel. You must be blessed.
I feel that I am now! I have my partner and a few friends I would die for (although we are not in the same towns which is hard) and my parents are the best (here I won a lottery). My dad had a very hard childhood, and his context was difficult so also I know how hard it is to heal from such a situation, how much will and strength it takes. You are so right, these are probably most important together with health!
@@lostinadmiration great to hear! Indeed relationship and health. Health nowadays is easy to improve unless it is genetic. I myself am struggling sometimes with diet or physical movement but I know this is in my own hands. Relationships (especially family) is something you do or do not have. Might be possible to improve but it for a certain part is given. Good friends or love is sometimes also hard to find.
@@seniorkevin that’s true though I have to say I had a few moments in my life where health seemed a bit out of my control. There are so many autoimmune conditions or just bizarre diseases no one knows how to treat.. it also seems a lottery sometimes! So if you have decent heath, that’s a treasure!
@@lostinadmiration yeah these are the hardest however I found out vague health symptoms can almost always be solved by healthy patterns. (low carbs /sugars, a lot of fruit, no overdose caffeine, enough sleep or movement etc). Sometimes finding out about allergies in your diet like lactose/gluten can help too!
Great video!
Thank you so much!!!!
First🎉
Hi 👋
Video Nicely done , thanks 🙏
Thank you for this. I only came across your channel a few days ago, and I love the calm, beautiful nature of your videos. I’d never heard of the wheel of life idea, but I love it. Will definitely be trying that today x
Oh wow - what a nice thing to say! I appreciate your support so much :) Hope you enjoyed the exercise!
