I started with a personal trainer, she has a holistic approach as well and a lot of what u r saying n doing is part of their program, it’s of course based on each individual’s needs and blood work, tests etc. it’s good that ur working w/ a naturopath n your dr for the guidance! I have just started so I will have to let u know, I am still at a point where I am trying to make it a routine n habit n get it worked into my regular everyday life! I want to do the meditation n journaling, life been busy as I am experiencing the overwhelm of trying to still get caught up from taking care of an aging parent for 3 years so I just take it day by day n give myself grace n deal with whatever comes up n then when it’s complete move on to the next so I think my to do lists n schedules help keep me on track I just need less of that to do so I can focus more on what I really want if that makes sense but I have alot of responsibilities so doing that as well, I will get there! 🤓 Thank u so much Erin for this video, honestly your timing is perfect! I too like the audio books frees up time, I am interested in your list of those Erin as I am interested in manifestation as well! GREAT VIDEO and tips, thank u so much for sharing, I drink SuJi juice it’s a green juice, pre mixed, I had tried regular celery juice it was ok, but I like this better it has some other stuff in with it healthy! Thank u for doing this type of video again, soooo helpful, ofcourse I love all of your videos, I feel like I relate to u so much and we are near the same age, I am a few years older but still same areas of attention to health, wellness, and positivity etc. I love to see videos like this, it’s real life n yes I like learning these things as well! 😊❤️🎁💕⭐️
I'm currently working at not bad-talking myself. I was raised with a "bully yourself into success" mentality so it's been a very difficult habit to break. Also, I'm trying to adjust myself back into being a morning person. I haven't been an early riser for nearly 20 years so it's taking a little while to adjust.
I want to try this product, it sounds amazing! I have found in the past if I take too hot of a shower that my scalp gets dry and itchy plus my hair gets frizzy also. Even though a hot shower feels fantastic, I don't have it so hot and I don't have these problems any longer.
I am a nurse and have seen so many people that can’t move and would do anything if they could walk or work out again, i tell myself how lucky I am that I have freedom of movement and I work out for those who can not. Talk to yourself like you are talking to your best friend.
Great talk Erin! As a 61-year-old, I can't stress enough how important it is to do the mental work of reframing negative thoughts about yourself into healthy, loving, positive thoughts. It will make the aging process so much easier, and carefree. In ten years from now, if you (or anyone) have not learned self-love, looking at the changes that occur in your face, neck and body can be devastating. You are a very hard worker. I know you will pull it off!
Yep 100%. If you can't accept the natural changes that come with the privilege and good luck of aging, you'll either self-loathe or spend all your money on botox, fillers, plastic surgery, etc. (and end up looking like you have a mask on, most likely.) An alternative to that is to be grateful you are still alive and be happy. Smiling/laughing is a natural "face-lift" and also makes you feel better inside, too!
Every single morning, typically a couple hours after I have my coffee, I have a bowl of kefir with a cup of fresh blueberries in it and then I sprinkle hemp seed and flaxseed over it, about a tablespoon of each, and then I stir it and drizzle honey over-the-top and stir that and I eat it every single morning. It is a polyphenol, antioxidant powerhouse delight, like dessert. I love it and I look forward to it every morning! I also do 5 of your habits and just turned 54 last month :)
Sounds like you practice mindfulness with this daily ritual, and it nourishes your body, mind, and soul. I do the same but with my first cup of coffee every morning. I blend it with some coconut oil and sometimes cinnamon (my modified "bullet-proof" coffee). I then savor every sip . . . ☕
@@jodybogdanovich4333 truth be told I think I'm really just a creature of habit when I like something. Years ago in my 20s I would go to Yoshinoya here in CA and order a veggie bowl and clam chowder for lunch everyday for 2 years. One day I walked in and the guys yelled out, Veggie bowl, clam chowder! and I said no WAIT! I was going to order a chicken bowl with no skin? and they all had a shocked look on their faces and then we all started laughing 😄 In relation to your coffee routine, I do the same thing everyday also. I put two scoops of vital proteins collagen in it and an oat milk creamer and blend it the magic bullet. I used to add the MCT coconut oil and cinnamon also but stopped at some point. I think for women reaching the menopausal years it's really important to have a specific routine that works for you and to stick to it if you don't get bored, because you can really regulate what your body does. My biggest concern is of course staying healthy, but also keeping weight the same. I quit drinking last year and when I told a couple girlfriends that are my age that that was the biggest key to keeping so thin, they started laughing hysterically and said, FORGET IT...I'll just keep these extra lbs LOL... 😂
@@StayGold_MrsE Bodies are so different! I haven't drank any alcohol in 20 years (I'm 59) but that hasn't saved me from menopausal weight gain. I gained a good solid 15 pounds in the last 5 years, eating the same way I have always eaten. Have tried to lose weight the same way I used to be able to easily drop 5 pounds in 4-5 weeks if I just "watched what I ate" and cut out a few snacks. That doesn't work now. I don't feel like I'm in MY body. I was never stick thin but never overweight like I am now ("overweight" meaning I don't feel physically comfortable). I'm healthy, getting stronger, eat healthy and not overly much - starting to learn to ACCEPT that I might always weigh this much and need to learn to live with it and appreciate my healthy body, even if it's larger than I feel good in. It's not easy but I'm trying.
Erin this came at a time when I really needed the affirmation that it's ok for me to take care and love myself. I grew up with a lot of physical and mental abuse and when I got married I couldn't believe anyone would want me. After all there had to be something wrong with me for my mother to do those things. It set me on a road of always blaming myself for everything and accepting less than acceptable treatment from others.I have Lupus,Fibromyalgia and Arthritis and I found out 1 of my triggers is when someone ignores me when we're having a disagreement or just stops being there no explanation. It hit me so hard this time that my Lupus went wild on me. It was a wake-up call. I also realized that if someone cares so little for you that they treat you badly or don't think of your feelings then why should I waste my time crying over them and stress my already weakened and stressed immune system. I've started a journey to self love and to discover what I really love and want out of life.
One of the best blessings, realizations, And moments of grace recently in my life, was seeing myself when I was a child and what I would do for this child - meet ALL their needs as a loving parent. It was profound. I encourage you to go back to those moments, and give yourself a great big hug, say and do what you needed to yourself as a child. It is so healing and I believe pivotal, and when you love yourself more, because you are meeting your own needs, by God's grace, you can love others in a healthy way also. And for those that come and go, it's alright, because you love yourself and appreciate yourself and know who you are. And in the wise words of one of my relatives, ~~ the ones that love you, love you, faults and all. ~~ That doesn't mean we never grow or learn from our mistakes, but we have grace for them. May God encourage you and turn this into a turning point for you of self love, confidence, faith, and worthiness, just because you were born you are worthy of love. Amen. May much peace and faith be yours as you read this message! Amen ❤
I say that in a healthy way, our first responsibility in life is to take care of ourselves, though we may not have good examples of that. May you receive the grace to take this moment and it be, I believe the proper word is, corner stone or foundation, an anchor in your life. May you be a beautiful example of that what you seeked. Amen. May God's peace be with you. 🌠🌠
I just read your comment and Wow does your story sound similar to mine!!! Every last detail! That’s why it’s so important for me to share this with you. I too experienced the mental and physical abuse that you shared and I TOO have had autoimmune disease/lupus, fibromyalgia, and even hypothyroidism. I thought there was no hope of ever getting better because each year it seemed I was developing more health problems. Then I researched and found the medical medium on Instagram. Since implementing his information I have reversed these issues and have regained my life! I want you to know that healing is possible. And I wish you nothing but the best of luck in your future. I will be adding you to my prayers as I know how heavily the things you have experienced can weigh on you.
@E Buda Thank you so much for your kind words. I have been very ill lately with a cold or virus that has weakened Mt immune system. Your words touched my heart deeply. My whole life is being turned upside down and I never learned how to deal with stress gowing up. I've always internalized it and with my health issues I've been learning ways to cope with stress. God bless you for your kindness and I pray for you to have all the joy your heart can hold.
Hi Erin! I’m 51 and a recovering perfectionist as well. It’s nice to be part of a community of like-minded women, that we are also on their awakening journey. Please keep doing these types of videos. They are truly inspiring and life-changing. 🙏🏻 ❤
Something I challenge myself with everyday is moderation. I am 50 and all my life I go to the extremes. I either go at something all in or I don't go at all. It took me sometime to realize that this is what I do. In some cases going all in has served me well, but the flip side does not. One thing I have mastered is truly not caring what others think of me. It has been the most liberating aspects in my life. I wish I had adopted the philosophy of not caring what others think of me at a younger age, but I didn't fully grasp it until I was 45. Also the realization that happiness is absolutely an "inside-job" has improved my mental health immensely! Having gratitude for the important things and people in my life grounds me. I appreciate your videos and I am glad you no longer tear yourself apart. I have been there, and it is utterly toxic. Thanks for being a deep thinker and sharing your insight! Much love and happiness!
Erin,you are just so very refreshing and inspiring! So many influencers sound exactly the same and after a certain age one would think they have moved on from lipstick shades and contour but it’s become replay over and over.Thank you for inspiring all of us with your intelligence,smarts,beauty,grace and honesty!
Hi Erin. Celery juice is a great idea but fresh juice shouldn't be stored for more than 72 hrs/3 days in the fridge. This is because it's not pasteurized and doesn't have any preservatives -- which is a good thing -- and bacteria can start to develop. Just wanted to pass this along so everyone stays healthy and safe.
Hi Erin, I'm 64 and have been following you for several years now, mainly for fashion inspiration and a little travel. Your growth in the past two or three years has been amazing. You've opened-up and shared yourself in such positive ways. I'm sure you always had this person inside of you, but since you've truly allowed others in, and more importantly allowed yourself to love yourself, your content and delivery has become so much deeper, richer and more beautiful in every way. Bravo!
I have been on my hormones for 20 years. I had a hysterectomy and then went on hormones. I recently was late getting them and I felt sick. No energy. Nothing depressed once I got them and got my levels back up. I felt so much better.😊
Erin I just found your channel and it is like looking at myself 40 years ago. First of all you are beautiful and so talented. Now that I am 77 years old I can tell you from experience that someday you will look back at your life now and be so upset that you didn’t love each and everything that you find wrong with yourself now. People use to tell me I was beautiful but all I saw were things that were wrong with me. I saw a photo of myself just yesterday and could have cried at how I looked at 63. I was beautiful even than but not to me. Don’t waste one minute of your life not being the person you are now. You are amazing and even now at my age I am still trying to hold back time. Stop doing it. I wish I could let it go and love me for me. For you it is not to late. I love your channel. Love being you.
What a beautiful message. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wisdom. I agree… for me SO MUCH time has been wasted picking myself apart, finding the flaws, feeling unworthy… it is in the last couple of years as I’m inching toward 50 that I realize that it is a losing battle! It’s also a waste of previous time and energy. I know now that I am a beautiful soul who deserves love regardless. 💗 Thank you again!! ~Erin xo
Hi, I’m late for this but Thanks for sharing.. it’s great to be reminded and updating the self care process. Tailoring these care tips to yourself is key. For example I add celery to my green smoothie and store it. Sometimes I add collagen powder. My meditation is prayer and it makes all the difference. Again ty for sharing and please update what you do for self care and self improvement 🙏🏼😌💛
I'm so glad this video spoke to you! It is so important to find the ways, big and small, to care for and show love to ourselves. Thanks so much for watching! xo
You are such a gift to us all… even when my daughters are a little older than you are. Had them as a teen. I look and feel much longer than the number on my birthday certificate…lol..but heaven knows I still have the issues you so beautifully articulate here and in a previous video. Thank you, Erin! So thankful to you and your team for your content!!! Bless you. Lídia
Thank you for this video! I was raised so healthy and have maintained good health since early childhood.It was just very natural for me to choose healthy over non healthy.Having a positive and mindful personality has made me so appreciative of all the wonderful things I am blessed with.
Thank you so much Erin! I so needed to hear what you have to say today. The message I needed to hear right when I needed it. I want you to know that you have helped me reset and push myself out of a funk at times when I have been really down. I just play your video about feeling overwhelmed with anxiety and depression and it calms me and helps me get back on track. Thank you for being open and sharing with others. You have helped ME for sure. ❤
I'm so glad this video came at just the right time for YOU, Amy! Thanks so much for sharing what an impact it had on you... I'm humbled by your words and honored to be even a small part of your journey! xo
Hello Erin, I am not over 40 yet (I am a step before it). You put all the cards on the table and thank you for that. Regarding the habits - I liked your list, some of the habits are already there :) . I started Collagen complex (you were that one that said like - "you do not have to, but it is much better with". Took me time, but now I`ve finally started), B vitamin complex 100mg (50mg was not enough),Vitamin D drops - and it gives a kick to all the systems, I feel like more Energy. And lately I`ve found out a magical features of spices! Every morning I add to my tea lemon, honey, Cinnamon, a bit of curcumin (quarter a spoon) and a small pitch of nutmeg. Later I heard from a lady working with me- that cinnamon makes you feel warmer (I am a hypotonic, a lot of times feel tired for something or hands/legs are cold). It improves metabolism and has a lot of interesting microelements. For now it works nicely. Let`s see how it will be after 40... 😝
At 54 I can say hallelujah to all the things that help us stay mobile & healthy! Hormones, collagen, vitamins, running, free weights, moderation in food choices…all the things! I don’t do anti aging….I do living my best life physically & spiritually. Stay healthy!
I'm new to your channel and I am 55 and I can tell you life only gets better. You are fun and keep up the good work to inspire women that are your age.
Hi! This is probably the richest video you have offered; all is about how to improve the self and be in touch with oneself, and that is awesome! I am trying to be in the same path you are. I am also trying to clear my home from clutter and make all more soft and welcoming. Thank you for all the wise teachings of this day! May God bless!
I like all your videos , but this one is probably my favorite one We go, go and go and the things that we use to do when we were younger, well they don't work for us now. We have to create new habits. We evolved , and now it is time that we take care of ourself. I appreciate the honesty in your words as you share your own personal journey. This video resonated with me. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent habit suggestions. It’s nice that nothing is an extreme, and I love your calming energy surrounding every one you described. It’s important to MAKE the time for these (or similar) habits to enrich not only our own lives, but for those we love as well. Thank you Erin! 🙏
Erin! your channel has always inspired me to enjoy my love of fashion, and dress for myself. The self-care and healthy topics that you’re leaning into now are challenging me to stop and think and nurture myself alongside getting ready for my day. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your journey. I’m re-committing to my supplement regime … habit stacking here I come … oh, and I think I’ll crack the cover of Atomic Habits this weekend. Best wishes for your day! ❤️ Melody from northern Canada
Thank you so much for this video. I really enjoyed it! I was thinking the entire time you were talking ( and had noticed from a few of your other videos) that a lot of what you were saying sounded like Abraham Hicks… so when you mentioned that you were listening to the audio book I was really excited. I found them about 10 years ago and it changed my life. I love the direction your channel is going and think it gets better all of the time! I’m thankful I found you!
Great motivation❤ I am a People pleaser, and a hopeless perfectionist, and it has made me sick! Working hard on not caring about what everyone else thinks, and taking care of myself! Going to try out some of your tips, like the celery juice! Thank you💗💗
I recently purchased a sauna blanket and I thought it was just me. I’m not a napper, but five minutes in that blanket and I am out! Great video, you are full of inspiration! ❤ Thank you.
Hi Erin, Love your honesty in keeping it real. This was helpful and inspiring. So many good tips. I also have a PhD in punishing myself. I turned 60 this year and (subconscience) self-talk has been worse than any other decade. I am working on it. As you said, awareness is the first step. I still *feel* in my 40’s. God bless you, Erin. Take care and have a beautiful week.
You are not alone... I hope you continue to work on granting yourself grace and loving yourself as you are. You deserve it. SO glad you are here in this amazing community! xo
Thanks for this, Erin. Today started hard. And actually started last night, it started so hard. 😅 It’s good to have self care reminders when we feel like we’re on fire.
Great video -- very wise thoughts about flexibility, perfectionism, etc. I also can't (it doesn't feel good) do the hour + long workouts I could do, and did - in my 40s and even early 50s. I ran my first full marathon at 50 and it felt great. Now, at 59, even a half marathon feels hard. I'm getting more into weight training - not for some perfect body I will never have, but to age with as much strength and grace as possible. XO!
This was the bomb! Very much needed! I think there is a lot of value in this video. Like you I’m always exploring how I can improve as a person as I go. Sometimes it takes time to figure out you have entered a new season in life and your needs have changed and that goes to body composition as well as stage in life and state of mind. So thank you dear!
We drink Suja green fresh juices every single day. They are made and delivered to Whole Foods daily so I think I have the greens covered (and they have a wonderful celery juice with lemon, I believe, that tastes fabulous); not sure about the journaling -- I am doing a life memoire so my kids will have our family and my personal history; love the convert negative thoughts concept -- my big problem is worrying. I worry about everything, gotta work on that. I use an omnilux infrared mask five days a week and love it so that blanket sounds intriguing. Yup to being my own best friend. Love your inspirational and gentle encouragement Erin. You are a wonderful coach. 💖💖
Ok! Love that you committed to 30 min of movement every day. This is what I am working on. More than that does not fit into my busy life and I would be set up for failure. Thanks!
"Ask and it is Given". Yes! One of my favorites books for years. You have to refer back to it from time to time. Another favorite that we all can refer to - an older book that will literally help you with anything going on in your life right now, even in modern times - "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living your Life" by Dale Carnegie.
I love this list! I just want to flag another daily habit of yours that you have shared on previous occasions -- taking risks. It's important to give yourself comfort when you need it and discomfort when you're up for it. I constantly challenge myself to challenge my limitations but with the mindset that I don't have to go big every time. It can be something small -- say a bold lip or a chiffon dress?
Thank you for this video and sharing your steps for self care. Good reminder to get back to habits I’ve drifted from…I’m inspired to work them back into my routine❤
Smoothies are such a quick easy way to pack in a bunch of healthy stuff. I use power greens, some frozen fruit, collagen powder & liquid multi-vitamin. No matter what else I eat that day I feel good I got all that good stuff in : )
18:44 major validation! I get down on myself for not reading books anymore. But I go through 4 long novels every month with audible. So if audiobooks count as reading, I’ve just reframed a whole thing I was getting down on myself about. Thank you!
Lovely reminders and great ideas for continued growth. I often wonder why I am resistant to certain practices, I’ll lean into those feelings and learn a great deal about myself. As a woman enjoying her last year in her sixties I completely agree to never stop learning, try new things, especially if I have resistance to the experience 😉
I love this content in addition to your fashion advice and inspiration. Keep sharing what you read and I’d love to know more about the music you listen to while meditating - it’s a habit I need to work on. Thanks so much!
What I do daily: intermittent fasting (game changer!), whole real foods, I don’t do sugar except for what naturally occurs in fruit (mainly berries), I eat a lot of protein (which I believe is KING), I don’t eat grains, I don't eatat night, strength training & lifting HEAVY (nope I'm not "bulky", in fact I'm very petite 😅), good sleep (anyone who ruins my sleep should be prepared to di)😂, I drink protein shakes after my workout, & finally I eat what I want on vacation or else it wouldn't be a vacation😅
These are very beneficial habits that allow me to feel my best as well. I do my best to prioritize self care everyday day - i’m making a smoothie for breakfast right now and taking my vitamins-. Listening to your channel is an inspiring way to start my day! thank you for being genuine and sharing when you are having low moods, knowing we are not alone can be just the thing to pick ourselves up. All is well, I appreciate all that you bring to your followers 😘
Really enjoy your videos and look forward to watching them. Love how the things you discuss are not just a fad that will come and go. You give excellent suggestions and advice. 💗💗💗
Thank you, Erin ❤ This made me so happy because I do all the same things…. It’s great to see someone like yourself mention habits and for once I’m tracking right along. CJ in the morning is a must for all the reasons. Xo Erin
I have a smoothie every day, sometimes twice a day. I add celery to it and my Nutri Bullet has no trouble with it. I like the NutriBullet because I get the pulp too so I keep all the fiber.
Infrared light interacts with mitochondria in your skin to produce melatonin, so taking a hot bath or working in your garden out in the sun (given you wear sunscreen to block the ultraviolet light of course) is actually good for you :) I love the idea of these masks and blankets because we are all indoors these days, but infrared is a longer wavelength of non-visible light from the sun, or warm things like a sauna or a warm bath 💕
I’m 43 and I need and want to take my vitamins. Loving your wholistic health videos and self kindness beyond fashion perspective you’ve added to your channel.
Aloha from Honolulu! Thank you for such an inspirational video, Erin!! After listening all your amazing tips, I am going to stop beating myself up for not being a perfect human being in both physically and mentally!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
i added celery juice to my diet about three month go ( I am following the Medical Medium which is where a lot of this originates from-, You may want to reference more of his suggestions) and I have people constantly comment how healthy I look! I have always taken care of myself, my skin and body, but this is next level. Enjoy the journey!
You can use a a vitamix or high spend blender for juicing as well. Just strain thru a nut milk bag or cheese cloth which catches all the pulp. Plus, less cleanup than a juicer! It has worked for me really well. Just another option.
Hi Erin. I always love your fashion videos, but I love this just as much. I used to beat myself up too. Like this week I have been a nurse, pt, do it all myself since my husband has to be watched for blood clots after his knee replacement. Two years ago I would beat myself up for not getting my steps in, or for not been able to cook the perfect healthy meal ( our friends brought meals and I are what they fixed.) I did get out for about an hour to work out in the yard. It recharged my body and spirit. Everything in moderation. I have never had any unusual numbers with my blood work except once my vit d was lower than normal..Did you have any specific things you needed to change. Love you beautiful friend. ♡♡♡♡
You might look into keeping your juice that long. Most fresh veggie juices should be consumed in at least 24 hours after you make it. I’m not sure but you may be able to freeze your excess. I love that you included a bit of mindfulness / meditation. So many focus on physical and never talk about the importance of mental slow down and focus.
Thank you very much for this video. It’s very helpful for me. In particular, everything you talked about regarding the self talk is really hitting home for me. 🙏🏻 🥰
Hello hello! 🌷Girrrrlll, you go wild with your learning, isn't it? I like that! It's really inspiring and I admire your strenght. 😘 I could never tell that you would ever say such mean things to yourself Erin, WHY??? You are such smart woman! Why would you do something like that? 🫣 I really admire my coworker, which is such a positive soul, she gives me energy every day. Everyone keeps talking about how sugar is bad for you and she is like: I like sweets, I could never say no to that, if I will get fat, I will buy new clothes instead, why should I torture myself??? Life is too short to be unhappy. 🌸 Happy spring everyone, whatever you are in the world and be happy that you are still alive! 🌸
Re: ski outfit featured. It looked like you were wearing Cordova but the links listed go to Perfect Moment. Have you tried Cordova, and if so what do you think? My husband bought me one last year and it’s gorgeous but I can only wear it in temps ~50 comfortably. Need one for colder weather, as we go to Utah sometimes. P.S. so glad I found you! Love your fashion-help and inspiration ❤
Hi I'm 61 and have no meds to take. All supplements are natural . Had a episode of high blood pressure. Found Hawthorne extract recently. I'm trying to be proactive in my health
Thanks so much for addressing what it means to age and age well. I had so many examples of what NOT to do in my own family that I also went on a self help quest. I feel like I thrived during the pandemic. I started drinking 16 oz of celery juice every am on an empty stomach, meditation, moving my body and got back into lifting weights. Now at 58 I am supported using HRT, eating mostly plant based but I call myself a flexitarian. I am far from perfect but these few tweaks have made me feel better before I looked better. I find it difficult to be around people that don't put the effort in for themselves. It's a lot of work but now they are just non negotiables before I leave my home. I do need to truly let my hair down on vacation and just chill too instead of trying to figure out where I can buy freshly juiced celery from 😜 I am far from perfect but I can say my nervous system is less reactive and more quiet than ever and I struggle with Fibromyalgia.
So glad this video was helpful for you, Deborah! It can be easy to get caught up in staying very rigid to our routines... I hope you can find ways to release that stress while you're on vacations or away from home. Loved reading a little bit about YOU here too. Thank you for sharing! xo
I’m 58 too🤩and did celery juice three years ago, here in LA at that time you couldn’t buy celery😂Everybody were doing it. Then I learned, it was making my allergies worse. In my experience, people who eat low carb completely get rid of fibromyalgia. Learning more about toxins in plans, helped me a lot!
It's funny, but I totally knew you were giving us advice but speaking to yourself! I love you and your channel, and perfectionism is a problem but it did bring you to establishing a great platform. Thanks Erin!
My mother often says negative things about herself as a defensive gesture, like she’s too ugly to wear nice clothes. I point it out every time she does it. I keep telling her to be her own champion and cheerleader, pet self on the back no matter how small the achievement. She says to me I brag about self too often. I say if I don’t say to myself Job Well Done, who’s to say it to me? Self sabotage (holding onto others’ derivative comm, too), even just a little at a time, can do large damage to psyche and behavior. The best way to beat a person down without using a bat is frequent verbal put down. Most people would buy into it eventually and let self go gradually. Soon the outside voice would become inner voice like what happened to my mother. She seldom received praises or positive reinforcement growing up and in adulthood.
I'm so sorry that your mother doesn't understand this idea... and I'm SO glad you fully DO understand it. You are totally right.. if you don't say it, who will? Your most important relationship is with who you spend the most time with - yourself. I hope that your positive example begins to rub off on your mother too, it sounds like she really needs that self-love. xo
Nothing wrong with the support! I found that it is helpful for me, but we are all different and it's always important to work with your doctors and other health professionals to find what works best. xo
Here's a few blogs that show the details of our new home for you! Favorite Home Decor | busbeestyle.com/favorite-decorative-home-accessories/ Closet/Office | busbeestyle.com/cloffice-work-from-home/ And a quick video of the space as well! instagram.com/reel/CfcjNQYlT2E/?
Awesome that works for you! I felt sick as a dog when I tried low-carb, higher meat content. Plus I just don't like meat at all. Never have. Bodies are all so different!
Erin did u take classes for your learning! I am thinking I need classes for all of this technology, I grew up with floppy discs n no kids to teach n show us lol, I am only a few years older than u! I love the topics of these types of videos, I can’t read a book for long, or I am sleeping! I have heard of some things just don’t know much about it so thank u soooooo much for sharing, great video! I appreciate your help n all that do! 😊❤️🎁💕⭐️
Such a great video and suggestions. My girlfriend just told me about the celery juice, it sounds amazing with all the benefits that it gives you. I want to practice to do more mediation and also write more, I used to do it often but took a break from it, reminder. Thank you!
2:37 hi Erin Loved this video. Your videos are so informative and beautiful! I had been doing celery juicing everyday. It was quite cumbersome. After a while I stopped because of it. Your suggestion of doing it once a week was great. Question- Can you tell me the name of the pitcher you used here. I bought one that appeared to be tight enough, but instead when I shake the juice it spills from the top. Appreciate your wisdom and truth! Thank you for the info. Love it! ❤
So glad this was helpful for you, Lydia! I can't remember the brand on this pitcher, but found an airtight option for you to check out here | go.magik.ly/ml/1u742/ Hope this helps on your search! xo
@@BusbeeStyle Thank you so much. I will check it out. BTW… I so appreciate how valuable your messages are for woman to live the fullness of who they are. That is just so awesome to me! Keep shining, Erin! 😘
The one thing I DON'T DO every day is drink. To me, choosing not to drink almost a decade ago was the number one thing I did for my mind, body, sprint and skin. I'm recovering from a surgery but exercise, green smoothies and laughing my ass off are daily habits. Love you girl.
Same here, Polly! One of my best decisions was to stop drinking alcohol many years ago. Hope you are doing well after your surgery! Take all the time your body needs to heal. xo
We're all in different positions, but I'll always stress the importance of working with your doctor - whatever that means for you, on any health issues or concerns that you may have. I'm sharing my own experience, but never saying that you need to do exactly what I have done. xo
Which of these habits do you want to try? Are you excited to try Care/of?! Let me know what you think in the comments below👇xo
I want to try this Care of product
I started with a personal trainer, she has a holistic approach as well and a lot of what u r saying n doing is part of their program, it’s of course based on each individual’s needs and blood work, tests etc. it’s good that ur working w/ a naturopath n your dr for the guidance! I have just started so I will have to let u know, I am still at a point where I am trying to make it a routine n habit n get it worked into my regular everyday life! I want to do the meditation n journaling, life been busy as I am experiencing the overwhelm of trying to still get caught up from taking care of an aging parent for 3 years so I just take it day by day n give myself grace n deal with whatever comes up n then when it’s complete move on to the next so I think my to do lists n schedules help keep me on track I just need less of that to do so I can focus more on what I really want if that makes sense but I have alot of responsibilities so doing that as well, I will get there! 🤓 Thank u so much Erin for this video, honestly your timing is perfect! I too like the audio books frees up time, I am interested in your list of those Erin as I am interested in manifestation as well! GREAT VIDEO and tips, thank u so much for sharing, I drink SuJi juice it’s a green juice, pre mixed, I had tried regular celery juice it was ok, but I like this better it has some other stuff in with it healthy! Thank u for doing this type of video again, soooo helpful, ofcourse I love all of your videos, I feel like I relate to u so much and we are near the same age, I am a few years older but still same areas of attention to health, wellness, and positivity etc. I love to see videos like this, it’s real life n yes I like learning these things as well! 😊❤️🎁💕⭐️
I'm currently working at not bad-talking myself. I was raised with a "bully yourself into success" mentality so it's been a very difficult habit to break. Also, I'm trying to adjust myself back into being a morning person. I haven't been an early riser for nearly 20 years so it's taking a little while to adjust.
I want to try this product, it sounds amazing! I have found in the past if I take too hot of a shower that my scalp gets dry and itchy plus my hair gets frizzy also. Even though a hot shower feels fantastic, I don't have it so hot and I don't have these problems any longer.
I would love to try the Vitamin Supplement Company...I don't take anything currently and I'm 53.
I am a nurse and have seen so many people that can’t move and would do anything if they could walk or work out again, i tell myself how lucky I am that I have freedom of movement and I work out for those who can not. Talk to yourself like you are talking to your best friend.
Great talk Erin! As a 61-year-old, I can't stress enough how important it is to do the mental work of reframing negative thoughts about yourself into healthy, loving, positive thoughts. It will make the aging process so much easier, and carefree. In ten years from now, if you (or anyone) have not learned self-love, looking at the changes that occur in your face, neck and body can be devastating. You are a very hard worker. I know you will pull it off!
SO important... Thanks for sharing, Diane! xo
Yep 100%. If you can't accept the natural changes that come with the privilege and good luck of aging, you'll either self-loathe or spend all your money on botox, fillers, plastic surgery, etc. (and end up looking like you have a mask on, most likely.) An alternative to that is to be grateful you are still alive and be happy. Smiling/laughing is a natural "face-lift" and also makes you feel better inside, too!
Do you recommend any audio in particular for hypnosis healing?
Every single morning, typically a couple hours after I have my coffee, I have a bowl of kefir with a cup of fresh blueberries in it and then I sprinkle hemp seed and flaxseed over it, about a tablespoon of each, and then I stir it and drizzle honey over-the-top and stir that and I eat it every single morning. It is a polyphenol, antioxidant powerhouse delight, like dessert. I love it and I look forward to it every morning! I also do 5 of your habits and just turned 54 last month :)
Thanks so much for sharing, Michele! Sounds amazing... xo
Sounds like you practice mindfulness with this daily ritual, and it nourishes your body, mind, and soul. I do the same but with my first cup of coffee every morning. I blend it with some coconut oil and sometimes cinnamon (my modified "bullet-proof" coffee). I then savor every sip . . . ☕
@@jodybogdanovich4333 truth be told I think I'm really just a creature of habit when I like something. Years ago in my 20s I would go to Yoshinoya here in CA and order a veggie bowl and clam chowder for lunch everyday for 2 years. One day I walked in and the guys yelled out, Veggie bowl, clam chowder! and I said no WAIT! I was going to order a chicken bowl with no skin? and they all had a shocked look on their faces and then we all started laughing 😄
In relation to your coffee routine, I do the same thing everyday also. I put two scoops of vital proteins collagen in it and an oat milk creamer and blend it the magic bullet. I used to add the MCT coconut oil and cinnamon also but stopped at some point. I think for women reaching the menopausal years it's really important to have a specific routine that works for you and to stick to it if you don't get bored, because you can really regulate what your body does. My biggest concern is of course staying healthy, but also keeping weight the same. I quit drinking last year and when I told a couple girlfriends that are my age that that was the biggest key to keeping so thin, they started laughing hysterically and said, FORGET IT...I'll just keep these extra lbs LOL... 😂
@@StayGold_MrsE Bodies are so different! I haven't drank any alcohol in 20 years (I'm 59) but that hasn't saved me from menopausal weight gain. I gained a good solid 15 pounds in the last 5 years, eating the same way I have always eaten. Have tried to lose weight the same way I used to be able to easily drop 5 pounds in 4-5 weeks if I just "watched what I ate" and cut out a few snacks. That doesn't work now. I don't feel like I'm in MY body. I was never stick thin but never overweight like I am now ("overweight" meaning I don't feel physically comfortable). I'm healthy, getting stronger, eat healthy and not overly much - starting to learn to ACCEPT that I might always weigh this much and need to learn to live with it and appreciate my healthy body, even if it's larger than I feel good in. It's not easy but I'm trying.
Erin this came at a time when I really needed the affirmation that it's ok for me to take care and love myself. I grew up with a lot of physical and mental abuse and when I got married I couldn't believe anyone would want me. After all there had to be something wrong with me for my mother to do those things. It set me on a road of always blaming myself for everything and accepting less than acceptable treatment from others.I have Lupus,Fibromyalgia and Arthritis and I found out 1 of my triggers is when someone ignores me when we're having a disagreement or just stops being there no explanation. It hit me so hard this time that my Lupus went wild on me. It was a wake-up call. I also realized that if someone cares so little for you that they treat you badly or don't think of your feelings then why should I waste my time crying over them and stress my already weakened and stressed immune system.
I've started a journey to self love and to discover what I really love and want out of life.
One of the best blessings, realizations, And moments of grace recently in my life, was seeing myself when I was a child and what I would do for this child - meet ALL their needs as a loving parent. It was profound. I encourage you to go back to those moments, and give yourself a great big hug, say and do what you needed to yourself as a child. It is so healing and I believe pivotal, and when you love yourself more, because you are meeting your own needs, by God's grace, you can love others in a healthy way also. And for those that come and go, it's alright, because you love yourself and appreciate yourself and know who you are. And in the wise words of one of my relatives, ~~ the ones that love you, love you, faults and all. ~~ That doesn't mean we never grow or learn from our mistakes, but we have grace for them. May God encourage you and turn this into a turning point for you of self love, confidence, faith, and worthiness, just because you were born you are worthy of love. Amen. May much peace and faith be yours as you read this message! Amen ❤
Love yourself first then make room for others, but you first. You are the most important.
I say that in a healthy way, our first responsibility in life is to take care of ourselves, though we may not have good examples of that. May you receive the grace to take this moment and it be, I believe the proper word is, corner stone or foundation, an anchor in your life. May you be a beautiful example of that what you seeked. Amen. May God's peace be with you. 🌠🌠
I just read your comment and Wow does your story sound similar to mine!!! Every last detail! That’s why it’s so important for me to share this with you. I too experienced the mental and physical abuse that you shared and I TOO have had autoimmune disease/lupus, fibromyalgia, and even hypothyroidism. I thought there was no hope of ever getting better because each year it seemed I was developing more health problems. Then I researched and found the medical medium on Instagram. Since implementing his information I have reversed these issues and have regained my life! I want you to know that healing is possible. And I wish you nothing but the best of luck in your future. I will be adding you to my prayers as I know how heavily the things you have experienced can weigh on you.
@E Buda Thank you so much for your kind words. I have been very ill lately with a cold or virus that has weakened Mt immune system. Your words touched my heart deeply. My whole life is being turned upside down and I never learned how to deal with stress gowing up. I've always internalized it and with my health issues I've been learning ways to cope with stress. God bless you for your kindness and I pray for you to have all the joy your heart can hold.
Hi Erin! I’m 51 and a recovering perfectionist as well. It’s nice to be part of a community of like-minded women, that we are also on their awakening journey. Please keep doing these types of videos. They are truly inspiring and life-changing. 🙏🏻 ❤
I love your little dog!!!!
Something I challenge myself with everyday is moderation. I am 50 and all my life I go to the extremes. I either go at something all in or I don't go at all. It took me sometime to realize that this is what I do. In some cases going all in has served me well, but the flip side does not. One thing I have mastered is truly not caring what others think of me. It has been the most liberating aspects in my life. I wish I had adopted the philosophy of not caring what others think of me at a younger age, but I didn't fully grasp it until I was 45. Also the realization that happiness is absolutely an "inside-job" has improved my mental health immensely! Having gratitude for the important things and people in my life grounds me. I appreciate your videos and I am glad you no longer tear yourself apart. I have been there, and it is utterly toxic. Thanks for being a deep thinker and sharing your insight! Much love and happiness!
thank you for sharing!!! MODERATION! such an important aspact in our lives and nobody really talks about it… because it is the hardest thing….
Erin,you are just so very refreshing and inspiring! So many influencers sound exactly the same and after a certain age one would think they have moved on from lipstick shades and contour but it’s become replay over and over.Thank you for inspiring all of us with your intelligence,smarts,beauty,grace and honesty!
Hi Erin. Celery juice is a great idea but fresh juice shouldn't be stored for more than 72 hrs/3 days in the fridge. This is because it's not pasteurized and doesn't have any preservatives -- which is a good thing -- and bacteria can start to develop. Just wanted to pass this along so everyone stays healthy and safe.
Hi Erin,
I'm 64 and have been following you for several years now, mainly for fashion inspiration and a little travel. Your growth in the past two or three years has been amazing. You've opened-up and shared yourself in such positive ways. I'm sure you always had this person inside of you, but since you've truly allowed others in, and more importantly allowed yourself to love yourself, your content and delivery has become so much deeper, richer and more beautiful in every way. Bravo!
Beautifully said!
I see it too !
Thank you SO much for your sweet comment and your genuine support... I appreciate YOU more than you know. xo
I have been on my hormones for 20 years. I had a hysterectomy and then went on hormones. I recently was late getting them and I felt sick. No energy. Nothing depressed once I got them and got my levels back up. I felt so much better.😊
Erin I just found your channel and it is like looking at myself 40 years ago. First of all you are beautiful and so talented. Now that I am 77 years old I can tell you from experience that someday you will look back at your life now and be so upset that you didn’t love each and everything that you find wrong with yourself now. People use to tell me I was beautiful but all I saw were things that were wrong with me. I saw a photo of myself just yesterday and could have cried at how I looked at 63. I was beautiful even than but not to me. Don’t waste one minute of your life not being the person you are now. You are amazing and even now at my age I am still trying to hold back time. Stop doing it. I wish I could let it go and love me for me. For you it is not to late. I love your channel. Love being you.
What a beautiful message. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wisdom. I agree… for me SO MUCH time has been wasted picking myself apart, finding the flaws, feeling unworthy… it is in the last couple of years as I’m inching toward 50 that I realize that it is a losing battle! It’s also a waste of previous time and energy. I know now that I am a beautiful soul who deserves love regardless. 💗 Thank you again!! ~Erin xo
Thanks Erin! At 55 I do many habits each day including some mentioned. It becomes so easy over time.💜
Don’t be so hard on yourself! Talk to your inner child in a caring loving way. Above all, Have fun in life! Love your videos!
Hi, I’m late for this but Thanks for sharing.. it’s great to be reminded and updating the self care process. Tailoring these care tips to yourself is key. For example I add celery to my green smoothie and store it. Sometimes I add collagen powder. My meditation is prayer and it makes all the difference. Again ty for sharing and please update what you do for self care and self improvement 🙏🏼😌💛
I'm so glad this video spoke to you! It is so important to find the ways, big and small, to care for and show love to ourselves. Thanks so much for watching! xo
You are such a gift to us all… even when my daughters are a little older than you are. Had them as a teen. I look and feel much longer than the number on my birthday certificate…lol..but heaven knows I still have the issues you so beautifully articulate here and in a previous video. Thank you, Erin! So thankful to you and your team for your content!!! Bless you.
Lídia
You are the sweetest, Lidia! Thanks SO much for watching, sharing a bit of your story, and being a part of this amazing community! xo
Thank you for this video! I was raised so healthy and have maintained good health since early childhood.It was just very natural for me to choose healthy over non healthy.Having a positive and mindful personality has made me so appreciative of all the wonderful things I am blessed with.
Thank you so much Erin! I so needed to hear what you have to say today. The message I needed to hear right when I needed it. I want you to know that you have helped me reset and push myself out of a funk at times when I have been really down. I just play your video about feeling overwhelmed with anxiety and depression and it calms me and helps me get back on track. Thank you for being open and sharing with others. You have helped ME for sure. ❤
I'm so glad this video came at just the right time for YOU, Amy! Thanks so much for sharing what an impact it had on you... I'm humbled by your words and honored to be even a small part of your journey! xo
Hello Erin, I am not over 40 yet (I am a step before it). You put all the cards on the table and thank you for that. Regarding the habits - I liked your list, some of the habits are already there :) . I started Collagen complex (you were that one that said like - "you do not have to, but it is much better with". Took me time, but now I`ve finally started), B vitamin complex 100mg (50mg was not enough),Vitamin D drops - and it gives a kick to all the systems, I feel like more Energy. And lately I`ve found out a magical features of spices! Every morning I add to my tea lemon, honey, Cinnamon, a bit of curcumin (quarter a spoon) and a small pitch of nutmeg. Later I heard from a lady working with me- that cinnamon makes you feel warmer (I am a hypotonic, a lot of times feel tired for something or hands/legs are cold). It improves metabolism and has a lot of interesting microelements. For now it works nicely. Let`s see how it will be after 40... 😝
At 54 I can say hallelujah to all the things that help us stay mobile & healthy! Hormones, collagen, vitamins, running, free weights, moderation in food choices…all the things! I don’t do anti aging….I do living my best life physically & spiritually. Stay healthy!
I do 6 of your habits and I feel happy and healthy inside and out . Thanks Erin . xo
Love to hear that, Amy! So glad you've found what helps you feel your best! xo
I'm new to your channel and I am 55 and I can tell you life only gets better. You are fun and keep up the good work to inspire women that are your age.
Welcome, Kristie! Thank you so much! xo
Hi!
This is probably the richest video you have offered; all is about how to improve the self and be in touch with oneself, and that is awesome! I am trying to be in the same path you are. I am also trying to clear my home from clutter and make all more soft and welcoming. Thank you for all the wise teachings of this day! May God bless!
I like all your videos , but this one is probably my favorite one We go, go and go and the things that we use to do when we were younger, well they don't work for us now. We have to create new habits. We evolved , and now it is time that we take care of ourself. I appreciate the honesty in your words as you share your own personal journey. This video resonated with me. Thank you for sharing.
I am so glad this video resonates with you, Paulina. Thanks so much for your support! xo
Erin, I appreciate your gentleness and non-judgemental manner. Thank you.
Excellent habit suggestions. It’s nice that nothing is an extreme, and I love your calming energy surrounding every one you described. It’s important to MAKE the time for these (or similar) habits to enrich not only our own lives, but for those we love as well. Thank you Erin! 🙏
Erin! your channel has always inspired me to enjoy my love of fashion, and dress for myself. The self-care and healthy topics that you’re leaning into now are challenging me to stop and think and nurture myself alongside getting ready for my day. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your journey. I’m re-committing to my supplement regime … habit stacking here I come … oh, and I think I’ll crack the cover of Atomic Habits this weekend. Best wishes for your day! ❤️ Melody from northern Canada
Thank you so much for this video. I really enjoyed it! I was thinking the entire time you were talking ( and had noticed from a few of your other videos) that a lot of what you were saying sounded like Abraham Hicks… so when you mentioned that you were listening to the audio book I was really excited. I found them about 10 years ago and it changed my life. I love the direction your channel is going and think it gets better all of the time! I’m thankful I found you!
Great motivation❤ I am a People pleaser, and a hopeless perfectionist, and it has made me sick! Working hard on not caring about what everyone else thinks, and taking care of myself! Going to try out some of your tips, like the celery juice! Thank you💗💗
I recently purchased a sauna blanket and I thought it was just me. I’m not a napper, but five minutes in that blanket and I am out!
Great video, you are full of inspiration! ❤ Thank you.
Hi Erin, Love your honesty in keeping it real. This was helpful and inspiring. So many good tips. I also have a PhD in punishing myself. I turned 60 this year and (subconscience) self-talk has been worse than any other decade. I am working on it. As you said, awareness is the first step. I still *feel* in my 40’s. God bless you, Erin. Take care and have a beautiful week.
You are not alone... I hope you continue to work on granting yourself grace and loving yourself as you are. You deserve it. SO glad you are here in this amazing community! xo
Thanks for this, Erin. Today started hard. And actually started last night, it started so hard. 😅 It’s good to have self care reminders when we feel like we’re on fire.
I'm so sorry to hear you are struggling today... Sending light and love your way! xo
@@BusbeeStyle thanks! As with all things in life, that day did pass. 😃
Great video -- very wise thoughts about flexibility, perfectionism, etc. I also can't (it doesn't feel good) do the hour + long workouts I could do, and did - in my 40s and even early 50s. I ran my first full marathon at 50 and it felt great. Now, at 59, even a half marathon feels hard. I'm getting more into weight training - not for some perfect body I will never have, but to age with as much strength and grace as possible. XO!
This was the bomb! Very much needed! I think there is a lot of value in this video. Like you I’m always exploring how I can improve as a person as I go. Sometimes it takes time to figure out you have entered a new season in life and your needs have changed and that goes to body composition as well as stage in life and state of mind. So thank you dear!
I'm so glad this was helpful for you, Sharon! Thanks so much for your comment and your support! xo
We drink Suja green fresh juices every single day. They are made and delivered to Whole Foods daily so I think I have the greens covered (and they have a wonderful celery juice with lemon, I believe, that tastes fabulous); not sure about the journaling -- I am doing a life memoire so my kids will have our family and my personal history; love the convert negative thoughts concept -- my big problem is worrying. I worry about everything, gotta work on that. I use an omnilux infrared mask five days a week and love it so that blanket sounds intriguing. Yup to being my own best friend. Love your inspirational and gentle encouragement Erin. You are a wonderful coach. 💖💖
Ok! Love that you committed to 30 min of movement every day. This is what I am working on. More than that does not fit into my busy life and I would be set up for failure. Thanks!
"Ask and it is Given". Yes! One of my favorites books for years. You have to refer back to it from time to time. Another favorite that we all can refer to - an older book that will literally help you with anything going on in your life right now, even in modern times - "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living your Life" by Dale Carnegie.
I love this list! I just want to flag another daily habit of yours that you have shared on previous occasions -- taking risks. It's important to give yourself comfort when you need it and discomfort when you're up for it. I constantly challenge myself to challenge my limitations but with the mindset that I don't have to go big every time. It can be something small -- say a bold lip or a chiffon dress?
Thank you for this video and sharing your steps for self care. Good reminder to get back to habits I’ve drifted from…I’m inspired to work them back into my routine❤
So glad this was helpful for you, Jeanne! Thanks for watching! xo
Smoothies are such a quick easy way to pack in a bunch of healthy stuff. I use power greens, some frozen fruit, collagen powder & liquid multi-vitamin. No matter what else I eat that day I feel good I got all that good stuff in : )
You are absolutely right! Thanks for watching, Lisa! xo
18:44 major validation! I get down on myself for not reading books anymore. But I go through 4 long novels every month with audible. So if audiobooks count as reading, I’ve just reframed a whole thing I was getting down on myself about. Thank you!
Audiobooks absolutely counts! Thanks so much for sharing that, and for watching. xo
Always learning is so important. Learning about ourselves and our fears. Thank you for those words.
So important! Thanks for watching, Marcia! xo
Lovely reminders and great ideas for continued growth. I often wonder why I am resistant to certain practices, I’ll lean into those feelings and learn a great deal about myself. As a woman enjoying her last year in her sixties I completely agree to never stop learning, try new things, especially if I have resistance to the experience 😉
Love to hear that, Linda! Thanks so much for watching and sharing that with us all! xo
I love this content in addition to your fashion advice and inspiration. Keep sharing what you read and I’d love to know more about the music you listen to while meditating - it’s a habit I need to work on. Thanks so much!
What I do daily: intermittent fasting (game changer!), whole real foods, I don’t do sugar except for what naturally occurs in fruit (mainly berries), I eat a lot of protein (which I believe is KING), I don’t eat grains, I don't eatat night, strength training & lifting HEAVY (nope I'm not "bulky", in fact I'm very petite 😅), good sleep (anyone who ruins my sleep should be prepared to di)😂, I drink protein shakes after my workout, & finally I eat what I want on vacation or else it wouldn't be a vacation😅
These are very beneficial habits that allow me to feel my best as well. I do my best to prioritize self care everyday day - i’m making a smoothie for breakfast right now and taking my vitamins-. Listening to your channel is an inspiring way to start my day! thank you for being genuine and sharing when you are having low moods, knowing we are not alone can be just the thing to pick ourselves up. All is well, I appreciate all that you bring to your followers 😘
Thank you SO much, Marisa! Truly appreciate you! xo
Thank you Erin, I need this. I’m turning 52 this year and I need to take care of myself. I love watching all your videos
I hope these are helpful tips for you this year! SO glad you are here in this amazing community! xo
Really enjoy your videos and look forward to watching them. Love how the things you discuss are not just a fad that will come and go. You give excellent suggestions and advice. 💗💗💗
Thank you, Erin ❤ This made me so happy because I do all the same things…. It’s great to see someone like yourself mention habits and for once I’m tracking right along. CJ in the morning is a must for all the reasons. Xo Erin
Love to hear that!! Thanks so much for watching. xo
I have a smoothie every day, sometimes twice a day. I add celery to it and my Nutri Bullet has no trouble with it. I like the NutriBullet because I get the pulp too so I keep all the fiber.
Infrared light interacts with mitochondria in your skin to produce melatonin, so taking a hot bath or working in your garden out in the sun (given you wear sunscreen to block the ultraviolet light of course) is actually good for you :) I love the idea of these masks and blankets because we are all indoors these days, but infrared is a longer wavelength of non-visible light from the sun, or warm things like a sauna or a warm bath 💕
I’m 43 and I need and want to take my vitamins. Loving your wholistic health videos and self kindness beyond fashion perspective you’ve added to your channel.
Omg that was the best advice...I do all of these,and I am thrilled to hear of someone else that lives the same way...enjoy that process...thankyou
So glad you enjoyed this one, and love hearing that we're on similar routines! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Erin, fresh juice oxidizes and loses nutrients pretty quickly. It's best not to juice in advance to get maximum benefit.
I'm sure there are ways to improve all of these steps that I've shared... Just sharing what works best for me! Thanks so much for watching! xo
@@BusbeeStyle Keep doing what is working for you, dear Erin! XOXO!
Thank you for sharing all of this! Thank you for being so honest with us. We all struggle❤️
Thank you for sharing your tips. Congratulations on your accomplishments, Erin!
Aloha from Honolulu! Thank you for such an inspirational video, Erin!! After listening all your amazing tips, I am going to stop beating myself up for not being a perfect human being in both physically and mentally!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You are so welcome! You've got this, Susan. Sending light and love your way! xo
i added celery juice to my diet about three month go ( I am following the Medical Medium which is where a lot of this originates from-, You may want to reference more of his suggestions) and I have people constantly comment how healthy I look! I have always taken care of myself, my skin and body, but this is next level. Enjoy the journey!
It's really made a difference for me too! Thanks for sharing! xo
You can use a a vitamix or high spend blender for juicing as well. Just strain thru a nut milk bag or cheese cloth which catches all the pulp. Plus, less cleanup than a juicer! It has worked for me really well. Just another option.
Thanks for sharing, Holly! xo
Hi Erin. I always love your fashion videos, but I love this just as much. I used to beat myself up too. Like this week I have been a nurse, pt, do it all myself since my husband has to be watched for blood clots after his knee replacement. Two years ago I would beat myself up for not getting my steps in, or for not been able to cook the perfect healthy meal ( our friends brought meals and I are what they fixed.) I did get out for about an hour to work out in the yard. It recharged my body and spirit. Everything in moderation. I have never had any unusual numbers with my blood work except once my vit d was lower than normal..Did you have any specific things you needed to change. Love you beautiful friend. ♡♡♡♡
Thanks so much for sharing, Rita! Hope you are both doing well... xo
You might look into keeping your juice that long. Most fresh veggie juices should be consumed in at least 24 hours after you make it. I’m not sure but you may be able to freeze your excess.
I love that you included a bit of mindfulness / meditation. So many focus on physical and never talk about the importance of mental slow down and focus.
I thought the same on the juice. 👍
Meh, it's probably fine. Maybe the nutrition drops a little but if she's not feeling ill from it, it's ok!
Yes to classes and reading! I'd go nuts without learning something new! Great video!
Love this view of your healthy lifestyle. Also love the olive green cardigan you’re wearing in some of this video. 💚
Thank you very much for this video. It’s very helpful for me. In particular, everything you talked about regarding the self talk is really hitting home for me. 🙏🏻 🥰
Thank you for this video. I find it so inspiring!
Hello hello! 🌷Girrrrlll, you go wild with your learning, isn't it? I like that! It's really inspiring and I admire your strenght. 😘 I could never tell that you would ever say such mean things to yourself Erin, WHY??? You are such smart woman! Why would you do something like that? 🫣 I really admire my coworker, which is such a positive soul, she gives me energy every day. Everyone keeps talking about how sugar is bad for you and she is like: I like sweets, I could never say no to that, if I will get fat, I will buy new clothes instead, why should I torture myself??? Life is too short to be unhappy. 🌸 Happy spring everyone, whatever you are in the world and be happy that you are still alive! 🌸
Re: ski outfit featured. It looked like you were wearing Cordova but the links listed go to Perfect Moment. Have you tried Cordova, and if so what do you think? My husband bought me one last year and it’s gorgeous but I can only wear it in temps ~50 comfortably. Need one for colder weather, as we go to Utah sometimes.
P.S. so glad I found you! Love your fashion-help and inspiration ❤
You are doing an amazing Job , keep going! I love your videos !!! From Canada-Brazil
Thank you! This was such an eye opener for me and so many helpful tips.
Hi I'm 61 and have no meds to take. All supplements are natural . Had a episode of high blood pressure. Found Hawthorne extract recently. I'm trying to be proactive in my health
Thanks so much for addressing what it means to age and age well. I had so many examples of what NOT to do in my own family that I also went on a self help quest. I feel like I thrived during the pandemic. I started drinking 16 oz of celery juice every am on an empty stomach, meditation, moving my body and got back into lifting weights. Now at 58 I am supported using HRT, eating mostly plant based but I call myself a flexitarian. I am far from perfect but these few tweaks have made me feel better before I looked better. I find it difficult to be around people that don't put the effort in for themselves. It's a lot of work but now they are just non negotiables before I leave my home. I do need to truly let my hair down on vacation and just chill too instead of trying to figure out where I can buy freshly juiced celery from 😜 I am far from perfect but I can say my nervous system is less reactive and more quiet than ever and I struggle with Fibromyalgia.
So glad this video was helpful for you, Deborah! It can be easy to get caught up in staying very rigid to our routines... I hope you can find ways to release that stress while you're on vacations or away from home. Loved reading a little bit about YOU here too. Thank you for sharing! xo
I’m 58 too🤩and did celery juice three years ago, here in LA at that time you couldn’t buy celery😂Everybody were doing it. Then I learned, it was making my allergies worse. In my experience, people who eat low carb completely get rid of fibromyalgia. Learning more about toxins in plans, helped me a lot!
It's funny, but I totally knew you were giving us advice but speaking to yourself! I love you and your channel, and perfectionism is a problem but it did bring you to establishing a great platform. Thanks Erin!
My mother often says negative things about herself as a defensive gesture, like she’s too ugly to wear nice clothes. I point it out every time she does it. I keep telling her to be her own champion and cheerleader, pet self on the back no matter how small the achievement. She says to me I brag about self too often. I say if I don’t say to myself Job Well Done, who’s to say it to me?
Self sabotage (holding onto others’ derivative comm, too), even just a little at a time, can do large damage to psyche and behavior.
The best way to beat a person down without using a bat is frequent verbal put down. Most people would buy into it eventually and let self go gradually. Soon the outside voice would become inner voice like what happened to my mother. She seldom received praises or positive reinforcement growing up and in adulthood.
I'm so sorry that your mother doesn't understand this idea... and I'm SO glad you fully DO understand it. You are totally right.. if you don't say it, who will? Your most important relationship is with who you spend the most time with - yourself. I hope that your positive example begins to rub off on your mother too, it sounds like she really needs that self-love. xo

Do a video on the best audio books, please.. self care or stuff you like
Great, Erin! ❤ your tips. Thanks for sharing. Will you share on HRT? I stopped for a while but like you said, nothing wrong with having support.
Nothing wrong with the support! I found that it is helpful for me, but we are all different and it's always important to work with your doctors and other health professionals to find what works best. xo

Went through celery juice, growing sprouts, smoothies, growing vegetables only carnivore way of eating gave real results with my health🤩
Thanks for sharing! So glad you've found what works best for you! xo
Awesome that works for you! I felt sick as a dog when I tried low-carb, higher meat content. Plus I just don't like meat at all. Never have. Bodies are all so different!
Yay! Same!! Changed my life! Got off all medications. 🙌🏻
@@womanofacertainage5892 , it takes time to adjust🤩 it was easier for me I had no choice😂
@@deborahdeclue , more and more women doing carnivore, keto and it’s not restrictive at all🤩👍
More green is definitely something I will go back to. And Atomic habits.
Celery juice came from the Medical Medium. Nothing should be added. Also needs to be freshly juiced. Otherwise oxidisation occurs.
Great video Erin, I am an expert at negative self-talk so I have a meme on my lock screen that says "Be Nice to You" everytime I use my phone.
Beautiful reminder! Thanks for sharing that idea! xo
Love the wrapping paper! Ingenuity at its best! ❤❤❤
Haha! I appreciate that! xo
LOVELY CONTENT!!!!
MANY THANKS!!!!
I really enjoyed this video Erin! Keep up the good work:)
❤️ Love videos on Habits and Routines. Will you share a realistic Night Routine? 🌙 Thank you!

Absolutely!! Thanks so much for watching, Sue! xo
Hi Erin, I learned so much from your videos, and I am going to wear my nice clothes anywhere I am going to go. 💐👌👌💖💖
Such a great video and suggestions. My girlfriend just told me about the celery juice, it sounds amazing with all the benefits that it gives you. I want to practice to do more mediation and also write more, I used to do it often but took a break from it, reminder. Thank you!
Love to hear that!! Thanks so much for sharing what you plan to add to your routine! xo
2:37 hi Erin
Loved this video. Your videos are so informative and beautiful! I had been doing celery juicing everyday. It was quite cumbersome. After a while I stopped because of it. Your suggestion of doing it once a week was great.
Question- Can you tell me the name of the pitcher you used here. I bought one that appeared to be tight enough, but instead when I shake the juice it spills from the top. Appreciate your wisdom and truth! Thank you for the info. Love it! ❤
So glad this was helpful for you, Lydia! I can't remember the brand on this pitcher, but found an airtight option for you to check out here | go.magik.ly/ml/1u742/ Hope this helps on your search! xo
@@BusbeeStyle
Thank you so much. I will check it out.
BTW… I so appreciate how valuable your messages are for woman to live the fullness of who they are. That is just so awesome to me! Keep shining, Erin! 😘
The one thing I DON'T DO every day is drink. To me, choosing not to drink almost a decade ago was the number one thing I did for my mind, body, sprint and skin. I'm recovering from a surgery but exercise, green smoothies and laughing my ass off are daily habits. Love you girl.
Love the laughing part...😄😁😄😁
Same here, Polly! One of my best decisions was to stop drinking alcohol many years ago. Hope you are doing well after your surgery! Take all the time your body needs to heal. xo
You are so fresh and inspiring. I have not watched you in a while.
You are definitely ageing backwards.
Well I am SO glad you are here again, Claudette! Thanks so much for watching, and for your sweet comment! xo
In the UK we don’t have access to a doctor or a naturopath unless you have £100s to spend.
We're all in different positions, but I'll always stress the importance of working with your doctor - whatever that means for you, on any health issues or concerns that you may have. I'm sharing my own experience, but never saying that you need to do exactly what I have done. xo
Loving your videos.
