glad to hear things are coming together for you!
I appreciate u 🤓
oh no this put me in my cleaning/organizing mood when i really need to be doing my homework. see you later when i've reorganized my whole closet and moved all the furniture around my room
🙈🤣🤣 you the real mvp Julia! homework's easier with a clean & reorganized room right??
It makes me so happy to hear that things are going well for you! My life is a mess, but watching your videos always makes me feel like there's something I can do to take back control. Thanks for being so authentic, and for letting your personality shine in your videos. You always bring a smile to my face!
your positivity despite not feeling the best 🥺💕 appreciate you immensely Alison! sending you so much love & good vibes, we got thisss 💪🏻
I always watch these videos at night and it takes an enormous effort to not reorganize my room at 12am. I wish my life could be as organized as yours is. Hopefully watching your videos will help me with this :)
I also enjoy cleaning my floors so much, but it always signifies the END of my cleaning spree. After my laundry, dusting and tidying is done, the floor has caught all of the dust and crumbs from everything above, and sweeping it away and mopping is that final touch to make sure all the dirt is gone away.
Me too!!
For me, cleaning/vacuum/dusting is therapeutic. Afterwards, the feel and smell of a clean home... everything feels less heavy. More calm. Thank you for sharing!
yes ❤️ one of the best smells in the world hehe
Who else is having study break while watching her videos ☺️❤️
m'aww good luck with studying guys!! 🧠💕
@@rowena omg i love you and your videos!!!
Me!✋
This has come at such a great time. I need to take a good hard look at life and straighten it out and your videos always inspire me to do so! Have a good night Ro ❤
thank you my love! thanks for joining as always 😌
@@rowena ofc! It's one of the highlights of my week 🥰
Me too! Rowena is the big sister who always knows when I need some guidance :)
@@excuseme1543 m'aww appreciate you 🥺😩💕
I find your videos so calming - I watch them as I eat dinner at work, and always take away a little nugget I find myself thinking about/implementing the next day! Thanks for always being so honest, and reminding us all to take care of ourselves!
I love the 2 minute rule! I've implemented it in my life and it's key to keep your home tidy. I also have a "home" for everything and try to put things back to their home :)
oo so glad you've been applying these to your daily life 😍
It’s so nice to see you start finding pieces of peace slowly through these videos 😌 great reminder that we do get to choose how we frame our circumstances for the betterment of our mental health.
I'm repairing our family's old mud house which was abandoned for like ages. And yeah so many people are laughing at me but I'm almost done with it. So maybe in future I will do everything what my heart will wanna do at that time. Right now I also made a vagetable garden and also working with our NGO. And feeling grateful for these.
they're laughing now but when they look back, they'll realize how forward thinking you actually are 🤯 love how you're taking the time to repair something that's near and dear to your heart. keep doing you, following your heart/instincts, and living in the present :) so proud & happy for you!
Thank you ro. Sometimes we really need cheered up. But right now I'm more like living with my soul so I don't go out so often. Also our village is so far away from the city where I used to live my whole life. And our house is more isolated you can spend your months without knowing what is going on outside of this house. ☺💙
Also I'm planning to upload the videos of my works which I'm doing now. So pray for me😋❤
exotic life good luck!!
Best of luck to you!!!
Thank you for the video, Rowena, great start of my day, I watched it while doing some streching 😊 to answer your questions, I am getting my life together slowly, as I looked through my closet a few weeks back and got rid of some clothes. Also "finishing what you start" has been on my mind as an idea, so I've been consuming mindfully in a way that I decided to finish some movies I had started before and forgot to finisg. Yesterday I also relaxed and finished coloring a colouring page that I started coloring back in March 😂 but it's done now and that was satisfying, even if it wasn't a "productive task". Also when I feel the urge to watch something, I watch from my "plan to watch" list rather than watching a random thing that isn't on it. It feels good to see that list get shorter a tiny bit 😊 and finally, I've come back to my root habit and am journaling daily. I love it and have decided to pick out an old journal to read and write down any observations from my past self that I can learn from 😊 it's also something I have been putting off doing although I wanted to do it for a while.
Thank you again for meaningful and helpful content you create 😘
if i could do one thing for the rest of my life i'd honestly just travel the world and take photos/see concerts & broadway shows!! and now i'm sad bc i want to do that right now UGH
ahh sameeee. we can start doing that locally! I also take for granted my own backyard/city I live in 🙈
same here 😭🖤🖤🖤
Rowena, you are a ray of sunshine in my life! Hopefully I can get through the internal struggles I'm having and start pursuing what I want to do.. which includes vlogging!! Thank you for the boost.
Take out winter clothes.
I gotta do that, too.
winter is slowly but surely coming 😅
Rowena, I’m 2:27 min into your video and what I can recommend as a person who’s depressed for years - turn on some forest sounds off your digital device, sit on your sofa, close your eyes and just imagine you’re there :) among the nature.
loved this R! also, early congratulations on 300k, love ya
most of your videos really helping me, thank youuu
This video sparked so much joy in me and motivated me to get my life even more together:)))
yess jia you/fighting my friend!! 💪🏻✨
Inspiring! Your home is sooo beautiful and bright.
Trying to understand how to take care of yourself in a positive, healing manner is a lifelong struggle. I've been trying to figure out how to start, and this place has helped so much. Thank you Rowena, for creating a safe space in the world for all of us potatoes. 💕
😭🙏🏻💕 so grateful to have such beautiful & introspective souls in our treehouse of trust. appreciate you Jasmine!
@@rowena much appreciation right back at you! Don't forget to take care of yourself first, okay? 😊💕
Always a good time on your channel xoxo Thanks for being you!
from your videos i’ve been able to be the better me! the productive me :3 it’s been so lovely to continue watching your content and everytime i come back i find myself to be slightly better and happier with myself and my productivity levels!! you’ve inspired me so much over the years so thank you rowena
“What kind of music do you like?”
Rowena - “the sound of silience”
Same girl, same ✊🏽. That’s the most real thing I’ve heard all day say lol
Thank you so much for your videos and calming content. I have struggled with battling side effects from my ADD and anxiety. Building a schedule is my goal but is difficult to stick to when you have ADD. Your videos have aided in me continuing to try. I am amazed at the grace you show and want to be more like you. I hope you continue to do better and be proud of yourself for the strides you have made over the years🤗 Lots of love and hugs❤️
this is actually soo much easier and more productive if you live alone because when your with your parents you dont really get things done without procastinating and being lazy. living alone creates a sense of responsibility and you can really go your flow.
I am putting together my mental health. 💜 Proud of me.
proud of you Aishath! 💕
@@rowena thank you so much. I wanna say you are half of my inspiration. ♥️
🌟🌿I love how much you are doing! Your productivity inspires me 💛
your presence inspires me hehe thank you Hannah 🥰
Nope! I almost had it together I was close. Then the back lash of life happened and now I'm falling apart. Searching the web for motivation and ideas. *Its been about 6mo since I've watched any of your content and I have to confess your looking very good these days. I'm proud of you*
I have that same steamer! ^^ BTW I love watching your "reset" tidy-up videos. They always inspire me to keep up with my tiny dorm room whenever my desk gets too cluttered or my next monthly journal isn't finished yet. Thank you for posting these things!
I watch your videos every time I feel like giving up on my studies and roll myself in my bed. So thank you for giving me a part of peace and motivation, because this year is hard for me. It is nice to see we are not the only one to struggle between work and self care ❤️
I am on the bed rn watching this and trying to get motivated to study today
@@puneshasankar you can do this!
Thank you!!! I actually got a lot done that day!
Omg! I have cleaned my room so many times listening to your videos and Beauty Within videos too! I feel that it makes things easier and I learn stuff as I clean ❤️
I love the scripts you have in this video. Beautifully said and shown. We share many values. Your ted talk was lovely. Reliable and couldn't agree with you more. Much love and light.
This was very uplifting
your videos are such a calming presence in my life. thankyou. I'm starting uni this year. I'm worried about breaking up all the reading so its not overwhelming. if you have any tips on this??
Your videos give me such a good feeling. I love your vibe, apartment, clothes and your calm voice🥰 I’m trying to get my life more together at the moment, and seeing where you are in your life totally inspires and motivates me. Thank you for making these videos ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this video xxx I also use the 2min rule... It stop the feeling of being over whelmed xxxx
I don't know why, but I was genuinely surprised when Rowena asked 'Are you guys doing?' I feel good after hearing that.....and a bit envious of how beautiful your kitchen is.
💚 this video! Top tip: we have the same steamer and it works so much better if you put an attachment on it. We use the lint one (it’s got the strip of red on) but we do have a dog so it’s good to get the fur off our clothes ✌🏼
you are so inspiring. love your videos!
Great video as always! Loved the quotes and how satisfying it was to see you speed clean/declutter.
I am trying to get my life together and watching this video helps me be inspired ☺
i really love your getting-your -life-together vlogs bc of how realistic and simple it is. also, im happy for your progress. much love from the philippines ❤
I just realized that still have to clean the rest of my summer clothes after watching this video!
Cleaning house and organizing things makes me a stress-relief therapy
yess tidying & cleaning as therapy 😌 thanks so much Christine!! 💕
Rowena Tsai I love you 💕😍
Glad to hear you’re doing good, so am I actually! I’m busy with work but the way you approach work really inspires me and I believe sometimes it is ok to work a bit more than usually as long as you take a proper rest afterwards ☺️
I enjoy watching your videos!!!!
I’m a serious binge eater ... it’s something that I struggle with associated with depression and anxiety.it is so true that we have to be mindful of what we consume in more ways than one ❤️
I’ve been stuck in mess for a while so I made a 7 steps plan that I’ll follow through right now. The video was the best inspiration/moment of stillness before the fight I could ask for ☺️✨
I am taking an off from working right now and I'm binge watching your videos. Thank you for this kind of content, I'm really learning a lot ❤
"if there's one thing you can do for the rest of your life, and money/status/etc isn't an issue, what would you be doing??"
My answer: I'd be making films that have a strong spiritual core. Although sometimes I wonder if that isn't aiming high enough. Maybe there is something even more beneficial that I could contribute to the world? I don't know what that would be, though.
"where would you want to travel?? top 3 destinations?"
1. Hawaii
2. Japan
3. Jeju
I have a thing for islands. xD
"films that have a strong spiritual core" I absolutely 👏🏻 love 👏🏻 that. your thinking out loud reminds me of a quote by Steve Jobs, "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. *As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.*" 😌
also a huge fan of island life!!! hope you'd get to cross one or all of them off your bucket list soon :)
@@rowena I have a heart full of doubt, but the remedy for doubt is action. Not as much time for doubt when you're doing. I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled, Steve Jobs style, for bigger possibilities along the way. ;)
what people don't know is that it minimizes food waste, sure but it increases waste overall because of all the packaging.
i do love you so much though and am so happy that you're back! i love all of your inspirations-book, mom, and all!
Honestly, being in law school is so stressful but taking breaks to watch these calming and inspirational videos keep me going fam
A lot has been going on lately but trying to get it all together. So glad that UA-cam recommend this video to me, perfect timing:)
Your lunch looks soooo yummy!!
You are one of my favourite creators. Thank you for making content for us ❤️❤️
Right life not together currently working two job 😅. But slowly getting there , just have to remember my time with myself is important. I burnt myself out last week .
Definitely need to do the summer/winter clothes swap out soon. Thanks for the inspiration to clean my living room! 💡😁
Hey love, you literally changed my super messed up mind and life. It was a pleasure finding you and ypur channel. Thank you sooooooo much. And I love you a loooot.....
Good for you ❤️🙏
Thank you for all the quotes added 💕✨
lovely video as always! rn im feeling so overwhelmed and stressed 😓 so this type of content is honestly a godsend to remind me its gonna be okay and that we can get it together🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
you inspire me to be STILL. thanks, rowena. *hugs*
Really enjoyed this video!!! Taking time for self...heading to the gym in the morning. It’s been a long time!!! Starting new habits😘💕🙌🏾
Hi Rowen!! I have a request if you allow me. Could you make a video on your favourite books? I really want to start reading more, specially self grown books. What are your favourites? Which ones really helped you? Thank you!
I love your videos! I feel inspired. I'm graduating from college in a little over a month, so I'm really going to have some life changes, but I'm excited for 2020. :)
I am so grateful to be able to watch your video Rowena. They make me feel like I can accomplish everything. Thanks you for being amazing
Also, what is you vaccum? It seems nice and I am looking to buy a new one
*you are really such a motivation* tysm. ilysm. ✨🌼
always a pleasure watching your videos, this year I tried getting rid of some of the clothes that i have changing between summer and winter but I know that i can do more than this...but at least I did something :)
Vacuuming makes me happy too, but I like to do it last as a completion of all my efforts.
This really helps motivate me to just do the things I've been putting off doing. thank you!💖💖💖
Rowena : "IF YOU COULD DO ONE THING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, AND MONEY/STATUS/ETC isn't an issue, what would you do?? leave it in the commet section 😃"
Me: Stop worrying what others are worrying. Tick off all of my bucket lists in one year!
love this ❤️ top 5 things on your bucket list??
@@rowena
1/ Take a day off every week.
2/ Use the day off to explore new cafes.
3/ Try their signature meal or drinks.
4/ Take portraits of strangers. (if they allow.)
5/ Work hard.
@@whatocaho2 ahh a lot of what I'd like to be doing more of as well ☕️🍵✨ lets remind & encourage each other as we approach the start of 2020 🤓
@@rowena really?!! But how?
I love these video's so much!! I'm so glad things are finally looking up for you Rowena
i use vacuuming as a "reward " for cleaning it is so satifying as my last thing to do!
oo love this! my reward is a clean apartment 😜
And that book is added to my wish list! Your videos always inspire me to be a better me, even if it is put away the clutter or work on my spiritual life. You talked about once not being attached to objects how is that going for you?
I need to get my room together! Thank you for the inspiration!!
Things are good. Wish I had my life more together. Need to push myself to get out there and to do things that will benefit me! (I desperately need a new job) kinda in a slump but still moving forwards. Still trying to look for new work that’ll help me grow and help me achieve my goals.
Love watching ur videos, I always look forward to them ☺️
Love you videos, inspiring and relaxing
Hi Rowena! Thank you for this timely video. I can relate to all this, especially not being able to cook (because, to be honest, I'm that person who doesn't enjoy cooking). Anyway, my apartment is also a mess because life! Hehe. But this week, my goal is to also GET MY LIFE TOGETHER!😊
I feel so proud of Rowena 🌟
What about donating the skincare/make up/hair care you won't use to a women's shelter? We do that here in the UK and something simple like that can help a woman who has been through a tough time feel like herself again x
Nice vid! Inspired me to declutter my chlothes this week end.
"the sound of silence" is an actual real life yes it exists song and its good
the best song 🤤💕
your videos always inspire❤ I'm going to clean out my very messy drawer now because I've been avoiding it for too long!! 😂😊
I really needed this today Rowena 💕
Your videos are so inspiring xx
thank youu! 🙈💕
i loveeeee u&ur video!! never make me disappointed ❤️❤️
love your videos Rowena!!! Really you are so inspiring and motivating and you just make me happy. Just gonna be grateful you exist.
It's midterm season in university and I was really struggling to keep that work-life balance together but I'm working hard on it. Making sure that I'm actively making time for myself and time to wind down with my friends amidst all the work and studying.
FINALLY!!! I don't know of anyone else who loves vacuuming as much as I do!!! Yesssss!!! We suck!!
taking out the trash and putting my dirty clothes in the actual basket are definitely two things that get me craving to clean more. They're easy but make a huge sensory difference
some what getting it together, thank you for this video ❤
Have been having a bad anxiety flare up recently, which is a sign to me that I need to get my shit together >
This is so nice and refreshing 💕💕
love your vids, always!
thank you Ivy 💕
Love the velvet pants! (:
