I started watching you for the informational videos (I have cystic acne and I found you via another UA-camr), but I’ve definitely stayed because you’re such a positive influence in this space. I love how much you encourage healthier living, overall. Whether that’s eating healthy, exercising, having manners, playing with puppies, being with family, just overall positivity. I love your energy! You make the world better.
"Well, hey guys!" I don't think I'd ever get tired of hearing your intro. Also, "Don't forget... Sunscreen and Subscribe!" I literally say this outloud, either with you or you and your mother. When I heard, "Well, hey there.", I sensed something different. Traffic is no fun. I'm glad you and everyone else is safe. Thank God! I want to let you know that I'm truly thankful for ALL you share... from skin care info to recipes to other general health tips to wonderful discounts that are actually worth using. You continue to inspire me to better my all around health and my favorite subject... Skin Care. P.S. I get a new journal about every 1-2 months because writing is soothing for my mind. :) Ever considered writing a recipe book? Thanks for everything, Dr. Dray! Have a blessed day!
I get super bad anxiety if I don’t exercise! I was in the military for 6 years and I really learned to love exercise and taking care of my body 😀#armystrong I’m also reading the two books you recommended and I’m loving them!!
Since getting a physically demanding job, I don't work out like I used to. Ballet workouts with Mary Helen Bowers twice a week and that's it. If I don't do that or at least go for walks, I feel uncomfortable.
As a girl who comes from the land of the roses and feta cheese, I have been sharing with people that the Bulgarian rose is the most sought after in perfumery. Despite the fact that rose food products (especially Turkish delight) were common, I was not aware of the powerful nutritional properties of the rose, so as usual I learned something from you. Over 20 years ago I went to the festival of the roses in the rose valley and it was the most magical experience. The amount of rose petals needed for oil to be extracted is insane!
@@DrDrayzday would you say this is safe during pregnancy? I know no one really wants to answer that because they don't want to be held liable BUT... it you were pregnant... would you still drink something like this?
My dermatologist recommends it too. I am over 55 so I know prevention is key but for us older individuals ....are the product worth the price for skin care repair ie ...grpwth factors
Yeah, it would be interesting to hear that review. But I feel PC brand has become highly commercialized with all the serums and jazzy products, and it's not the most affordable either! Also, while PB presents herself as the beauty expert in the cosmetic industry, I can't help but notice that she does not really have relevant formal education in the area. She actually started as a makeup artist and an aesthetician, later becoming a TV host and an entrepreneur. However, I do appreciate her work on the beautypedia, I feel like she was among the first ones to successfully draw consumer attention to skincare/cosmetics ingredients.
I would love to see this as well. I own some face and body products from Paula's Choice and have seen good results so far. I recently made an order when there was a 30% sale, during the holidays.
Hala Ha I’m on my second bottle. I just wonder if, like so many of the things I’ve tried that Dr Dray has reviewed, they are temporarily giving me a good result but long term not very beneficial or even damaging. Such a harsh product but it does give glowy, smooth, seemingly hydrated skin. I’m also keen to learn about the rest of their line. The placenta serum etc
Biologique Rechercher cured my adult acne over 15 years ago. My cosmetologist at the time was trained on these products and I used a whole regime to treat acne along with scarring. I am not a defender of natural skincare precisely, I am super sensitive to essential oils, hate fragrance... But Biologique Rechercher is different, it truly is. P50 by itself will change your skin.
Rosanne Valadez it is not a substitute for a prescription retinoid. It will superficially peel, brighten, even out skin texture and tone. A retinoid does all of that as well but also helps your skin turn over faster, thickens the deeper layers of your skin, promotes collegian synthesis and can really help in the fading of scars and Hyperpigmetation
I’m so stressed recently. My skin is always bad when the school starts. This is my dissertation year and I’m so stressed out... thank you so much for this video! Love your videos!
I stopped the video at 13:54 to say that you are absolutely right about meal prepping. I stopped meal prepping for about four months, while adjusting to a big move, and I noticed I was always stressed about food. Meal prepping may be stressful on the day that you’re preparing it, but it seriously makes the rest of the week a breeze. I am back to meal prepping now, and I love it!
I honestly cannot get enough of you! You are such a wonderful caring soul. Absolutely grateful that you have put yourself out there in this way sharing your knowledge in a no nonsense fun kind of way. Sending you many of God’s blessings today and everyday. 🙏☀️🌙✨💕
I've never understood the "it's so expensive/time consuming to eat healthily." I can go grocery shopping do meal prep every week for less time and money than it would take to go through a drive through every single day. Whenever I have to eat out, it's so expensive and takes forever. >.
If you rely on public transport and everything walking distance is just little bodegas yes it’s harder. Watch eco gecko on how the suburbs is killing us financially, physically, mentally, and ecologically.
I’m a new subscriber, I’m glad to know I’m doing the right things for my skin. I just ordered the Rose Nectar. Can’t wait for it to get here! Thanks Dr.Dray!
Been watching a few of your videos each day for weeks now. I just think you are the smartest, sweetest, most articulate person. I am learning so much from you. I have always taken care of my skin due to cystic acne & melasma. But, after watching your videos, I'm encouraged that I can do more for my skin and overall health. Thank you ❤
great tips! I have sleep problems sometimes but found that a white noise machine helps me alot. I don't leave home for overnight stay without it. When I was staying with my dad in the ICU waiting room 2 years ago, I forgot it but found a video with no ads on You Tube for white noise 10 hours long and I would use that instead. That bowl and salt and pepper shakers are sooooo cute!
I love your vintage breakfast set. What a wonderful find. I have trouble getting motivated to exercise, even though I know it's going to make me feel better about myself.
Proud Bulgarian subscriber here :) So lovely that you have found the amazing properties of Rose Damascena. Thank you for sharing your tips and knowledge.
I had been using rose scented skin care products and rose water on my skin for decades until I started to watch your channel... I followed your advices and I have completely changed my skin care routine and stopped using all the fragranced, organic and expensive products I was using. I am so happy to find that rose nectar that you recommend. I can’t wait to get some :)
I am so happy I found your channel. I love the informed skin care suggestions, opinions and recommendations. These are all things I'd chat about with my own dermatologist if I had all time in the world. I find your content is a great supplement to the advice I get from my own dermatologist and the rest of my medical team. Thanks, as always.
After being in a near fatal traffic accident myself, I always remind myself that I'd much rather be inconvenienced by a delay than be in the accident. Self care is a great topic. I know I should do better at that than I do. I should try Tai Chi so thank you for that reminder. I used to be a fitness nut until my accident. I tried Pilates but hurt myself. I'm also a loner work out person. I loved running the most. My phone actually has a blue light dimmer at 10 pm. I'm guilty of watching TV in bed and I use my Kindle Fire for reading or watching a show. Another area I can improve upon. I agree that it can be disruptive. You're so helpful! Thank you for another great video. Have a great evening!! It's a cold one here in Annapolis!❄️🌬️🧣 PS - love Rose water but never consumed it!
I received my Pure Rose 🌹 Nectar a couple of days ago. I LOVE it!!! It tastes just like roses smell. It doesn’t have an artificial flavor at all. I am really happy with it and will order again. Thank you for introducing me to this Dr Dray 🌹
Yes to books!! 🙌 I am a photographer and it is really hard to stay offline but I have been doing it more recently and it's life-changing. I have a felt board in my house that says "scroll less, live more." 🙌❤️
Hi Dr Dray, just wondering if a box I sent you from Colorado made it there - it had the Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride plus a couple of other goodies? Much appreciation for what you give to us everyday!
Thank you for this video Dr. Dray! I really needed these reminders......as so often I find myself putting everyone else before myself. I need to start journaling and I plan to order the rose nectar . Your recipe looks delicious! You truly inspire me. Have a beautiful day!🌹🌺🌸😘🌸🌺🌹
For those of us who have to work late, try blue light blocking glasses, like Swannies (Swanwick) available on Amazon. Can help prevent screens from messing with your melatonin production.
'"No excuses." Yes, Dr. Dray. Continue to provide your audience with straightforward pieces of advice on skincare and well-being. Keep up the good work!
I truly admire that not only do you preaCh self care, you practice it yourself. Many doctors and physicians say but do not do. I also appraise the wonderful recipes that you have been giving out. I'm really loving the recipes and find them really yummy! Thank you so much for your time and honesty when doing your videos. Happy Wednesday!
I really could benefit emotionally and physically by heeding your self care advice, especially since I have generalized anxiety disorder. It’s quite a curse. I only need more discipline. I became overly emotional when you mentioned journaling ...which I have started. It hit me to my core. I’m thankful for you, Dr. Andrea Dray. You will be the topic of my next journal entry. ♥️☀️📚 Thanks for the fabulous review of Pure Rose Nectar, along with your recipe ~ A lovely aesthetic you have. I adore pomegranate and rose hip herbal teas; I’m guessing I will be trying this nectar soon. Wishing you could truly understand what an inspiration you are... in every way. Thanks again.
@@thevioletrevolution I feel they do. I finally got one, not real silk but same effect, and it has REALLY helped with my hair and sleep wrinkles. When I can afford it I plan on getting a real silk one.
Hi Dr Dray!! I couldn't agree with you more. I think we all neglect ourselves to some degree. Such great advice from you as always. Thanks so much. Have a great evening. 😊
New subscriber here and I have been bingeing on your videos. I love you! I was wondering, can you do a video on those face mists that are claim to help hydrate our skin?
Brilliant Dr Dray, so true what you stated in regards to a healthy mindset. Studies show that when people jot down their feelings or activities in a journal form, it has a therapeutic effect. It actually helps with mental illness as well as it is a form of releasing your thoughts whether it be positive or negative and helps with feeling overwhelmed especially when some have difficulty in confiding with others.
EXCELLENT video ! Dr. Dray, you are so right regarding limiting screens after a certain time as our minds need time to unwind. I'm a huge proponent of self care as I find it helps invorgate in both body and mind. Thank you for imparting such great knowledge regarding Self Care. I will heed your advice.
Afternoon from GA🍑! Loved your thoughts on self care, as a mom too often we put ourselves last. Would appreciate more tips, if not a full discussion on a skin routine for those of us who deal with rosecea. I'm very intimidated by trying anything drugstore outside of a cleanser, moisturizer or sunscreen for fear of causing a flare up.
Please do a video on Hidradenitis Suppurativa.... I have had countless excisions. Over 50+ I&D’s. 2 courses of Clarvis AKA Accutane. 12 years long term combo antibiotics. Getting ready to start Humira on February 4. Anything else I can do for self help?
Dr. Dray, TY for a much needed vlog! I revert to childhood such as listening to music I liked then on iTunes or watching old cartoons A late family member had a PhD in Math and worked as a rocket scientist. His favorite TV show was the Smurfs. Self-care = happiness. Enjoy your day, all!! 💜
E. Null good point. One of the main ingredients is mineral oil - has she spoken about this? I have watched a bunch of videos but not seen this specific ingredient come up.
I think they are both good for inflammation or under eye bags first thing in the morning. I use Dickenson's gel with caffeine. Green tea has many great uses. Hope you don't mind my 2 cents worth here! :-)
Great tips Dr. Dray . Thanks for the great content.. This year I plan to conquer my procrastination, I am so determined . Some of my thinking is similar to yours , healthy mind, healthy body.
Thanks for the comprehensive sharing.....very good round up of the mental , physical and internal well being! Especially the part on our daily habits - the nightime no devices advice is great ;)
Dr. Dray I have to work the night shift so that I can take care of my son in the day, this means I get home at about 2 am....is it possible that this is messing with my skin's ability to repair itself at night?? I wake up at 6 am to feed my son so roughly 4 hours of sleep for my topical adaptalene to work. Thank you!
Dr Dray, if I get enough hours of sleeping (ard 8 hrs), but I need to work on shift, and so sleeping hour would not be the same every day/every night. Would it be a big problem to my skin??
I don't know if you are in nursing but there are some articles from the 90's to recent about increased risks for women's health issues including hormone imbalances, brain health, and increased risks for breast cancer. The immune system can be impaired. I know sometimes it can't be avoided but just thought I would share. In the 80's I worked part time evening/rotating nights with very small children and after a year of that had to find a day shift position. I'm not a dermatologist but I would suspect lack of sleep and working night shift can disrupt our cortisol levels which can cause a host of problems including skin issues.
Aside from Bulgaria, Iran is also a major supplier of rosaxdamascena products. I think both are great (and they have bio-products too). I wanted to add something to the rose topic. You have 2 types of rose water: 1. rose petals seeped in water (with or without more dilution) and 2. side product from distillation of roses into oil. The second one is made of different components than the first one. Also the oil can be pure distillation product: very expensive. And the you have essential oils which are nowadays quite often "fake", ie not from plats but lab-produced. Yet again there is a difference between the two. People should definitely inform themselves before putting some products onto their skin (especially the rose essential oil).
Hey Dr. Dray, have you tried the Sei Mee Decaf Sencha? It's similar to matcha but decaf and is purported to actually have higher catechin content than matcha (theoretically shade-grown matcha yields higher caffeine, higher l-theanine, and lower catechins, while sun-grown sencha yields lower caffeine, lower l-theanine, and higher catechins)
Hello Dr. Dray. I have been away from watching videos and blogs for a few months andjust got back to watching them and especially you. I have to tell you how much I love your videos and always appreciated your honestly about products and skincare as there are thousands of products on the market that are overpriced and packed with unnecessary that are irritating as you well know. Not only are you very knowledgeable but you are interesting in your love of books, your creativeness and I could go on and on... Thank you for being you. I started using Cereve back around 2011 and was thrilled to hear youlove this line. I am 63 and used to put my Irish face in the sun years ago but became more aware that I just cannot not ever NOT use sunscreen and I couldn't basically ever go in the sun...Thank god my skin has been less dry and certainly improved. Also, you have saved me and othersprobably thousands of dollars purchasing the wrong products. Also, you are so funnyI find my self laughing at your comments and today I am so glad you think green teais great for your skin as I have been drinking it for years. I tell everyone about you.Sorry I am going on and on but one more thing thank you for telling us we have to cover up with sunscreen on the computer screen too. I have to remember to do that asI don't always remember at night. Also, Your skin is looking so beautiful and I love your hair long!!! You look amazing. Ok, so I apologize for this comment being so long. Thanks again, Dr. Dray.
What a great video.. I know most everything you spoke of but as we get busy it’s easy to forget some of the most simple ways to take better care of ourselves.. As always, thanks so much for sharing such wonderful information with us. Sue
Hi dr Dray! Great tips! I really like such content of your videos. Exercising is a great part of my life too. I don't do anything vigorous and like exercising in a group. Eating healthy is a way of life for me too. It's not in any way a sacrifice. Also it does not have to be boring or without any treats. One thing I will definitely try to implement is journaling. I think it is a great idea to put thoughts a bit in order. Thanks a lot and have a great day tomorrow!
Dr dray if I don’t listen to your videos or watch them I feel like I’m missing something haha I love your videos and you are an amazing Person 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I know what you mean about how stressful traffic jam’s are. Im not a fan of driving at the best of times. What a great motivational video with so much useful information as usual. As an artist I find that painting is the best way to relax for me. I agree with you that writing in a planner is so good for you, I have a Filofax soft domino and love it. I’m also in complete agreement that a good diet, preferably plant based is so important, not to mention kinder to our animal friends. I am ordering some rose oil for sure.
Your skin in 2019 compared to 2017 looks younger and glowing-er.... i started buying product that are frangrance free and hope i could get skin like you dr dray 😍🥰✨
I started watching you for the informational videos (I have cystic acne and I found you via another UA-camr), but I’ve definitely stayed because you’re such a positive influence in this space. I love how much you encourage healthier living, overall. Whether that’s eating healthy, exercising, having manners, playing with puppies, being with family, just overall positivity. I love your energy! You make the world better.

Good Morning Dr. Dray! ❤️
Happy Tuesday!
I really could benefit emotionally and physically by heeding your self care advice, especially since I have generalized anxiety disorder. It’s quite a curse. I only need more discipline.
I became overly emotional when you mentioned journaling ...which I have started. It hit me to my core. I’m thankful for you, Dr. Andrea Dray. You will be the topic of my next journal entry. ♥️☀️📚
Thanks for the fabulous review of Pure Rose Nectar, along with your recipe ~ A lovely aesthetic you have. I adore pomegranate and rose hip herbal teas; I’m guessing I will be trying this nectar soon.
Wishing you could truly understand what an inspiration you are... in every way. Thanks again.
Thanks! Hope you are having a great week!
Good morning..can you tell me what is the best way to get rid of deep lines on the face especially from sleeping 🍸🍸🍸💕💕💕
Do silk pillowcases really help?
I am training myself to sleep on my back and also use a silk pillowcase. I can see a difference in lines on my face as well as my chest.
@@thevioletrevolution I feel they do. I finally got one, not real silk but same effect, and it has REALLY helped with my hair and sleep wrinkles. When I can afford it I plan on getting a real silk one.
good morning and happy tuesday everyone
Happy Tuesday!
Tony J Happy Tuesday!! Have a Great Day!!
Tony J 🤗🙋🏼♀️ Happy Tuesday Tony! Have a wonderful day! ☺️💛
Oh my...I just totally read this in Dr Drays Moms' voice 😆
I really liked this video. Your tips were great and the logic and reasoning behind them really helped them to hit home.
Thanks!
Hi Dr Dray!! I couldn't agree with you more. I think we all neglect ourselves to some degree. Such great advice from you as always. Thanks so much. Have a great evening. 😊
New subscriber here and I have been bingeing on your videos. I love you! I was wondering, can you do a video on those face mists that are claim to help hydrate our skin?
they dont hydrate the skin, they evaporate off the surface of the skin and pull more water out with them, leaving behind a fragrance residue
Brilliant Dr Dray, so true what you stated in regards to a healthy mindset. Studies show that when people jot down their feelings or activities in a journal form, it has a therapeutic effect. It actually helps with mental illness as well as it is a form of releasing your thoughts whether it be positive or negative and helps with feeling overwhelmed especially when some have difficulty in confiding with others.
Thanks! Hope you are having a great week!
I havent watched a clip in so long, I dont know why, I missed you and your great advice!!! Can I just say i love the long hair and you are glowing!
EXCELLENT video ! Dr. Dray, you are so right regarding limiting screens after a certain time as our minds need time to unwind. I'm a huge proponent of self care as I find it helps invorgate in both body and mind. Thank you for imparting such great knowledge regarding Self Care. I will heed your advice.
thanks for watching!
I personally love this stuff and how good it is for you
tastes good
I use it as a toner works well 👌🏻
A lovely and uplifting video
Afternoon from GA🍑! Loved your thoughts on self care, as a mom too often we put ourselves last. Would appreciate more tips, if not a full discussion on a skin routine for those of us who deal with rosecea. I'm very intimidated by trying anything drugstore outside of a cleanser, moisturizer or sunscreen for fear of causing a flare up.
Most of her recommendations to keep it simple will be safe for rosacea. Beyond that you would need medical guidance.
Thanks! Rosacea skin care is challenging to navigate.
Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge...I just placed my order😀
thanks for watching!
Needed this video this morning! Suffering from back pain 😣 and this just gave me a little mood boost! Thanks Dr. Dray 🥰 xo Stacy

Dr Dray Thanks 😊 !!!
You have no idea how much I needed to see this video. Thank you so very much Dr. Dray
Thanks for watching!
More videos like this please!! 💙
Please do a video on Hidradenitis Suppurativa.... I have had countless excisions. Over 50+ I&D’s. 2 courses of Clarvis AKA Accutane. 12 years long term combo antibiotics. Getting ready to start Humira on February 4. Anything else I can do for self help?
Obsessed with your videos, thank you for these videos! You helped me save so much money and you helped my skin clear up tremendously. Much love ❤️
cleaning really helps me sort my mind.
love a clean space!
Nice Outlook hey I like that lamp back there that's a nice lamp that's back behind you nice video thanks for sharing.

What is the proper way to store the pure rose nectar after its opened?
in the fridge
Proud Bulgarian subscriber 🇧🇬! I love your content keep up with good videos! 😊
love your roses! Thanks for watching!
HAPPY TUESDAY DR DRAY!!
Happy Tuesday!
Dr Dray Hope your Day is filled with everything good!! Always!! xoxO
Dr. Dray, TY for a much needed vlog! I revert to childhood such as listening to music I liked then on iTunes or watching old cartoons A late family member had a PhD in Math and worked as a rocket scientist. His favorite TV show was the Smurfs. Self-care = happiness. Enjoy your day, all!! 💜
Just ordered the Rose Nectar and look forward to adding it to my water, tea etc...
it is tasty!
Can you please do a review on Embryolisse skin care products - they are so hyped but not sure about the ingredients.
Since they're heavily fragranced, I don't think she'd recommend them.
E. Null good point. One of the main ingredients is mineral oil - has she spoken about this? I have watched a bunch of videos but not seen this specific ingredient come up.
Dr. Dray, is caffeine bad for skin? I heard coffee and green tea have antioxidant properties before but no mention about caffeine and skin health
I think they are both good for inflammation or under eye bags first thing in the morning. I use Dickenson's gel with caffeine. Green tea has many great uses. Hope you don't mind my 2 cents worth here!
:-)
no...unless you are overdoing it...nothing is good in excess
Great tips Dr. Dray . Thanks for the great content.. This year I plan to conquer my procrastination, I am so determined .
Some of my thinking is similar to yours , healthy mind, healthy body.
💜
Thanks for the comprehensive sharing.....very good round up of the mental , physical and internal well being! Especially the part on our daily habits - the nightime no devices advice is great ;)
Thank you SO MUCH for all your videos and for sharing your vast knowledge on skin ☺️
thanks for watching!
very useful tips doc. thank you. cute crockery. nice dessert recipe.
would love to try the rose nectar. have a great day. take care.
Hope you are having a great week!
Dr. Dray I have to work the night shift so that I can take care of my son in the day, this means I get home at about 2 am....is it possible that this is messing with my skin's ability to repair itself at night?? I wake up at 6 am to feed my son so roughly 4 hours of sleep for my topical adaptalene to work. Thank you!
you only get four hours of sleep? that is a problem
Motherhood is exhausting
Dr Dray, if I get enough hours of sleeping (ard 8 hrs), but I need to work on shift, and so sleeping hour would not be the same every day/every night. Would it be a big problem to my skin??
I don't know if you are in nursing but there are some articles from the 90's to recent about increased risks for women's health issues including hormone imbalances, brain health, and increased risks for breast cancer. The immune system can be impaired. I know sometimes it can't be avoided but just thought I would share. In the 80's I worked part time evening/rotating nights with very small children and after a year of that had to find a day shift position. I'm not a dermatologist but I would suspect lack of sleep and working night shift can disrupt our cortisol levels which can cause a host of problems including skin issues.
Aside from Bulgaria, Iran is also a major supplier of rosaxdamascena products. I think both are great (and they have bio-products too). I wanted to add something to the rose topic. You have 2 types of rose water: 1. rose petals seeped in water (with or without more dilution) and 2. side product from distillation of roses into oil. The second one is made of different components than the first one. Also the oil can be pure distillation product: very expensive. And the you have essential oils which are nowadays quite often "fake", ie not from plats but lab-produced. Yet again there is a difference between the two. People should definitely inform themselves before putting some products onto their skin (especially the rose essential oil).
You look lovely dr .dray . Love from the Philippines.
Thanks so much for the code for Pure Rose Nectar.
Hey Dr. Dray, have you tried the Sei Mee Decaf Sencha? It's similar to matcha but decaf and is purported to actually have higher catechin content than matcha (theoretically shade-grown matcha yields higher caffeine, higher l-theanine, and lower catechins, while sun-grown sencha yields lower caffeine, lower l-theanine, and higher catechins)
I have those salt and pepper shakers!! I got them as a gift that my parents brought back from England.
Hello Dr. Dray. I have been away from watching videos and blogs for a few months andjust got back to watching them and especially you. I have to tell you how much I love your videos and always appreciated your honestly about products and skincare as there are thousands of products on the market that are overpriced and packed with unnecessary that are irritating as you well know. Not only are you very knowledgeable but you are interesting in your love of books, your creativeness and I could go on and on... Thank you for being you. I started using Cereve back around 2011 and was thrilled to hear youlove this line. I am 63 and used to put my Irish face in the sun years ago but became more aware that I just cannot not ever NOT use sunscreen and I couldn't basically ever go in the sun...Thank god my skin has been less dry and certainly improved. Also, you have saved me and othersprobably thousands of dollars purchasing the wrong products. Also, you are so funnyI find my self laughing at your comments and today I am so glad you think green teais great for your skin as I have been drinking it for years. I tell everyone about you.Sorry I am going on and on but one more thing thank you for telling us we have to cover up with sunscreen on the computer screen too. I have to remember to do that asI don't always remember at night. Also, Your skin is looking so beautiful and I love your hair long!!! You look amazing. Ok, so I apologize for this comment being so long. Thanks again, Dr. Dray.
Thanks so much Ms Kathleen! Hope you are having a great week!
I get so excited when I see a video from you!!!!
thanks for watching!
What a great video.. I know most everything you spoke of but as we get busy it’s easy to forget some of the most simple ways to take better care of ourselves.. As always, thanks so much for sharing such wonderful information with us. Sue
thanks for watching!
Just ordered mine:) can’t wait to try t out!
Let me know how you like it!
Please review May Lindstrom’s products.
Would love to know if any benefits from may lindstroma Cocoon! Seems more aromatherapeutic than anything
Hi dr Dray! Great tips! I really like such content of your videos. Exercising is a great part of my life too. I don't do anything vigorous and like exercising in a group. Eating healthy is a way of life for me too. It's not in any way a sacrifice. Also it does not have to be boring or without any treats. One thing I will definitely try to implement is journaling. I think it is a great idea to put thoughts a bit in order. Thanks a lot and have a great day tomorrow!
Hope you are having a great week!
Thank you for the rose dessert recipe♥
thanks for watching
Thanks Andrea. I'm happy to say I do all five of these, but want to get better at number four this year: journalling/to do lists 🤗💜
Thanks for watching!
Will have to save up and try the Rose Nectar- looks good!!
Dr dray if I don’t listen to your videos or watch them I feel like I’m missing something haha I love your videos and you are an amazing Person 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hope you are having a great week!
I know what you mean about how stressful traffic jam’s are. Im not a fan of driving at the best of times. What a great motivational video with so much useful information as usual. As an artist I find that painting is the best way to relax for me. I agree with you that writing in a planner is so good for you, I have a Filofax soft domino and love it. I’m also in complete agreement that a good diet, preferably plant based is so important, not to mention kinder to our animal friends. I am ordering some rose oil for sure.
I use to have a filofax. They are nice :)
I used to journal nightly...I think I need to start doing that, again.
Your skin in 2019 compared to 2017 looks younger and glowing-er.... i started buying product that are frangrance free and hope i could get skin like you dr dray 😍🥰✨
thanks!
