Who would ever give you a negative comment.... Oh my goodness... You are such a beautiful person... And I feel excited... Because I want to do the same lifestyle... All the things that you get excited about nature and waking up and doing things that you've been dreaming of doing in your day... That is exactly what I want to do... Maybe not the exact same things but things I dream about like being in nature .... Traveling with my dog... Spending more time with family and friends especially my grandkids... So you give me hope cuz lot of people are negative about van life and those of us that understand that van life can be very positive and good for your mental health... Thank you for that I needed that positivity for the future that I'm planning ❤️
I agree about phone .. I feel very protective about the first thing I listen to in the morning & the last thing before I sleep. I usually start my morning listening to scripture prayers while relaxing under a red-light mask. 😊 Then I sip on a citrus chai green tea & look at the weather, my planner & go from there.
Hello Brenna, oh gosh my darling independent woman, do NOT let anyone bring you down! You are doing VANLIFE perfectly and woman to woman youvery proud of you!!!!. My husband and I love your videos and we are VANLIFE people ourselves for five years now. Now safe travels to you and Abbey. Love from us. 🤗❤️😊😊🤗
The thing I love about you and your channel, is that it's calm, it's about what you do and feel, instead of where you are. It's nice to see something else than just the travel vlogs, because they are sort of stressful to me. It's nice to get those mental aspects of what travelling is. ❤
The fact that you just be yourself and show the everyday things is why I enjoy your videos so much! Gives me a realistic idea of what life will be like when I finally finish my bus and hit the road :)
You look so comfy under your blanket. I love your videos as you’re not at all pretentious you’re authentically you and it’s quite evident that you love your lifestyle. I am delighted for you. I do enjoy watching your videos. ❤️👍
Oh Brenna, just IGNORE any negativity! Everything you share is so positive, even if it's the not so good stuff about Van Life, as van-lifers, we get it! It's just so nice to see someone being real about this life. Thank YOU!!!
Love your morning routine. I love my morning routines, which involves, sitting quietly, meditation, reading or listening to wise words. I have various apps I like and books to read. I might even play with oracle cards or Rune stones. The best times is when I can start the day gazing at nature. You are an inspiration. Keep being you. ❤
This has been a delightful video dear Brenna, Abby by the creek with you was so very pretty. Thankyou for sharing your journey and thought’s with us all. I am a gran 74 in South Australia and I love doing short trips in my little Tarago van, all the while dreaming about bigger adventures if I had better mobility. Wishing you blessings and more joy!
You have managed to capture the life so well, the morning cuddles the condensated windows, the lovely warm sun coming through the windows the views everything on your own time and doing whatever you want to do before what you have to do.
Hi from Sweden 🩷 just started watching your videos, Love the life you are living and the views from a sunny winter day. Maybe I move down to a warmer place 🥶 Happy to see your healthy routines 🙏💫
Love your trecks, love your smiles, please don't sell your soul to sponsorship and obvious advertising, it will change what you enjoy. Kindest regards T
I'm very envious, Brenna! great and healthy morning routine for sure. I'm just now fixing up my horse trailer for camping while rockhounding. A port I'm a storm is really all I'm looking for to begin with. In central Oregon but Australia looks really beautiful. Cheerio to you!
Thanks for sharing your morning with us. I will occasionally add some shaved dark chocolate to my coconut yogurt, especially if I am having berries. Positive thoughts for your family. Happy travels for you and Abby.
I am really enjoying your podcast. I feel like your talking right to me. I also have to change my morning routine so thank you for the inspiration! Also Abby looks exactly like my pup who recently passed, so I love to see her. Thank you!
I relate strongly to your winter morning routine, Brenna, as it’s similar to mine (when I haven’t dropped the bundle 😅). I like to start with meditation as soon as I wake to keep my mind directed in a wholesome way, followed by morning pages (stream of consciousness writing) hopefully with a cuppa in hand, then up and dressed and off for a walk with my dog before there’s mutiny! Next is breakfast and quick clean out of the van, and exercise before it gets too hot. In summer I exercise before walking otherwise it’s just too hot. Surprisingly similar, but I’m probably more easily distracted from my ‘routine’ - you seem pretty organised! 💐⭐️
Thank you for this video! The power of a good morning routine is so important whether traveling or not. You have reminded me to get back at it and work on mine! I am also one of those 2000 new ones, and love your videos.
My brain is at its best in the morning so I do my bible reading and meeting prep, prayer etc as soon as I wake. Such a lovely spot you are at. Do you have sny problems with condensation through the night? . Lol eating like a bird. I am taking note of how you say it has helped with your cholesterol. Is that a fridge? I am watching your most recent then going backwards, so some of the questions I have asked might be answered in previous videos. Thank you for doing your videos. I will watch them all. Abbey enjoying her walk and the water. So lovely. Please don't put any pressure on yourself for us viewers. So appreciative of what you do when you feel you want to. Your care of yourself and your well being is number one. So cool, your exercises. Well done. Loved it. Thank you.
I typically don't watch videos about other's routines but this video happened to come at a very opportune time for me. Thank you for the ideas. I particularly like the ideas of writing in the morning and monthly challenges develop healthy habits.
My morning routine i get a glass of water with some appe cider vinegar read my daily devotion and my Bible meditate On what I've read and pray than i make a cuppa i really enjoyed this video thank you so much Brenna love and blessings from nsw 😊🚐
Hi Brenna, my name is Josie. I'm 49 years old. I'm Brazilian, but I've lived in New Zealand for the last 12 years. I lived in Sydney for 1 year between 2016-2017. In July it will be 2 years since I bought my campervan. A Toyota hiace high roof and long cabin. I live full time in my van. But at the moment still parked and traveling around to the town where my kids and grandkids live. To be close to them. But the plans were always to hit the road and do all of New Zealand. That going to happen soon. 🙌🏻🙏🏻 My van is white just like yours. And I named her Bonita. That means beautiful in my native language, Portugues. And I have the same bug curtain on the slide door. 😆 I subscribed and have been watching all the videos since the beginning. And making sure of always giving a thumbs up. I just love your videos and how authentic you are, and how you always think positive, and appreciate the little things. Safe travels 🚐🙌🏻✨
You definitely have to.😆 New Zealand is beautiful. Safe for solo female travelers like us. There are even some groups for women travelers only on Facebook. Apps help us find free camping everywhere. Sometimes I see ads in vanlife groups. People wanting to swapping vans between Australia and NZ. For short or long term. When you come this way let me know. We can arrange a road trip together. Safe travels. And thank you for answering my message. 🚐✨❤️
Great morning routine, l would love to get into meditating! What beautiful scenery to wake up to, I’m sure it helps to keep you motivated and in good spirits, lovely seeing Abby enjoying the water 🥰
Yes I’ve done a lot of house sitting over the last two years, it’s all been from word of mouth and had to turn people away and even passed them onto friends whom do it as well. It’s great, but I’m giving myself a break and just wanting to explore more,😊
I love you being you, keep up with it 😄 It is funny... I wanted to get some inspiration and knowledge about vanlife and been searching and watching a lot of different accounts, but the two accounts that really caught me is yours and "Lulu´s way". Two wise women from different parts of the world living and appreciating life. Me myself living in Sweden waiting for 18 years to pass so that I can travel around like you do... as I don´t have a job that I can bring with me... while waiting I am starting to downsizing, getting rid of something everyday, and looking for a better car that I can use as a minivan for weekends and vacations... at least for spring and summer...
I am a morning person! I am self employed and work from home but I am up early (4:30-5:30 a.m.). First up is a short outing with my dog. Then coffee and some quiet time with my dog and cat and my thoughts … sometimes prayer and/or devotional reading, sometimes just quiet reflection. Breakfast and maybe meal prep for lunch and dinner … then a medium length walk with my dog and maybe outside chores. Shower and then to work. Generally, my entire day is somewhat to routine and my pet’s internal clocks keep me on schedule 😊. Thank you for sharing all that you do. Your videos are so enjoyable and I truly feel like I have a new friend. ❤❤❤ From Liz, Emmett (English Shepherd) and Oscar (cat) in Northwest Montana, U.S.
I just wanted to say I am so happy for you that you changed your life and found happiness so rare your smart love your life and morning routine the only thing that s important in life is being happy in your life and you've achieved it congrats on finding it it's wonderful keep enjoying what makes you you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Research algee in lakes and rivers some dogs can die . I read it somewhere someone making others aware . Just a tip.. looks like paradise enjoy and stay safe.
Hi Brenna I have just found your site and really enjoy your videos, you come over as very natural and friendly and I enjoy travelling with you. As a 75 year old lady who lives in England I am unlikely to ever visit Australia so look forward to discovering your beautiful country with you 👋👋👋
Hi Brenna & Abby,my morning routine is to have that lovely cup of Earl Grey Tea. Then make the bed, get dressed & then breakfast. Great video today thanks ,Elaine from Brisbane Queensland.😊
Good video, thanks for sharing. Nuts are excellent for texture (crunch), sadly apple skin is the only part of that fruit that is good for us. I've worked out 3 heaped tablespoons of yogurt is about right, I too use coconut yogurt, yummy, been on that band wagon for a couple of years. I'm living out of my self built mini-van, working online for a few hours M-F and travelling the country for a different view daily, love the digital nomad lifestyle. I'm in WA, been through your hometown recently, such a lovely area, on my way up North from tomorrow, then in early August come back down for all the wildflowers. Nice to see other 50 year old solo women living this lifestyle, please keep sharing.
I am from Northcliffe …70 kms from Manji…love seeing my playground on one of your videos….l also have a hiace …had her for fifteen years …she is reliable and l am thinking about doing some camping in my area with my dogs…l love your tips ..and your beautiful dog…really…what would we do without dogs..they are my company ..best friends…anyway ..l think you are my inspiration…so enjoying your videos
Lovely video thanks. My morning routine goes as follows. I wake around 6. I start with my prayers and affirmations, the first of which is Everything I need will be provided for me today..and it is. I then get up and watch a beautiful sunrise over the ravine at my window and do my meditations. I am blessed to have the ravine where a creak runs through. At 7a.m. the deer come around and have their breakfast. Watching the little one's in spring is such a joy. As I have my coffee while listening to the many birds that chatter around is a gift. I have 5 large pine trees where the cardinals and bluejays fight for the highest spot. Hugs to you and Abby.
Hello Brenna, I've just recently started watching your videos and I am thoroughly enjoying them! Love your energy, enthusiasm and authenticity! Thank you 😊
Aww Abbie looks so cute under her blanket. I am housesitting with two dogs atm. One is so adorable. I wake up in the morning and his face is on the pillow next to mine. What a great idea to write first thing in the morning Brenna. My best time is morning and I have found by the time night comes around I am to mentally tired to write.
Hi from Turkey! A very chill video, I like it. And my routine? I like to do some editing on my computer while drinking a coffee. This because I wake up very early. After that breakfast (bread and cheese) and take the dog for a walk.
Just found your channel and I'm binge watching, I have just recently bought a hiace camper and this is so inspirational. It's also nice to see van life in Australia as there ones that I follow that are in the US. ❤
Hello Brenna that was one beautiful place you were camped at. There is no way I could meditate with Pippa she would be climbing all over me. Brenna I real enjoyed your rock painting and would love to start doing it as well. would you be able to tell me what supplies I need to start and where you perched your tools and paints please. Thanks for sharing your morning routine with us stay safe and healthy and give Abby a cuddle for me. 💛🍀
I have just started lwatlching your, love your video, i cant wait to start my van life, you have gave me so many great pointers and safty things to look out for. I love your breakfasts idea's and your routine ideas, keep being you,❤ beutiful lady and your baby girl is so cute.
Brenna! I just love your cheerful, sunshiny energy. I can feel it through the screen. You are so inspiring to me. I'm new, But an instant Fan. And Thank you for being you and sharing your life with us. ❤️🙏🌻
You have a wonderful morning routine Brenna Lynn, mine was watching your lovely video at 6.30 am here in Northern Ireland now its time to take my furbaby for his walk😊
Hi Abby, I love your videos and the morning is the best part of the day. I love getting up early and feeling like im the only one up and having the beautiful morning all to myself. I can agree with you that when you have a dog fur is on everything. I have a golden retriever and we travel on and off together, one day more permanently like you. Where are you it looks like somewhere around my area central west NSW xxx
Lovely vid thnx 🙏...I’m also full time digital nomad in my motorhome...also now on east coast nsw....yes v cold in mornings. My morning routine very similar....I realised the distal tools must be off in mornings so that my creative juices flow... I add in my first cuppa as I’m creative writing. After that I meditate...then write my intention and plan for the day....then a walk b4 breakfast and on with the business tasks. Have a gr8 time.
Thank you for sharing your morning routine, it looks like a wonderful start to the day. I am an early riser too and always drink about a litre of water first thing (I have been doing this for years so I can drink the water quite quickly) then I put the kettle on for the first cup of tea. While the kettle boils I take my yoga mat outside if the weather is fine and doing some ‘salutes to the sun’ and some ‘animal flow’ moves. I am learning French using Duolingo and some free French language book sites so I usually do my French lessons while I have my tea. After that I get up and go for a run or walk, then have breakie afterwards. I really love mornings and always start my days feeling grateful for good health and the prospect of another day ahead.
Great video! I also had that problem with my phone-I’d just grab it in bed and start scrolling and reading news, but I didn’t’ like starting my day that way. Now I get up, feed my dogs and cats and then make my coffee and have breakfast, then comes the dog walk. I love your videos and I really enjoy the fact you are yourself and showing your life the way it is. Don’t stress and keep doing things your way, you and Abbie are awesome! ❤ 🐾
You are so right about the sun going down and suddenly it's very cold. Never mind we are on the heading towards Summer side. Hmm I love writing and haven't been able to fit it in for a few years. Maybe first thing in the morning or last before bed... no that would probably be counterproductive for sleep. I may try morning. Take care =-)
Ive come home from a long day at work and so happy to see your beautiful smile 😊 Great video as always ❤ such a pretty spot too! Your brekkie looks yummy, will have to try it!
Hi Brenna, you have a lovely winter morning routine. I will definitely try your yoghurt mix, looks delicious. My morning routine is make a coffee, feed Tim my beautiful dog and then spend time practising gratitude, cuddling Tim and then we go for our morning walk, followed by breakfast. I find great inspiration in your videos, Thankyou. Graham and Tim 😊 🐕
Love your morning routine. I used to pick up my phone first thing in the morning and mindlessly scrolled for hours. It was wasting my time and mind. I changed my routine back in Nov 2022 by writing morning pages first thing with a cup of coffee. I gradually added meditation in January and a 15 minute walking/exercise as well as read Daily Bread. It all really helps focus my days (I took early retirement and moved from Toronto to northern Ontario). I now need to focus on a good nightly routine. I really enjoy your genuineness and calmness in your videos. You and Abby bring a sense of joy and peacefulness to the world. Safe travels 😁
Who would ever give you a negative comment.... Oh my goodness... You are such a beautiful person... And I feel excited... Because I want to do the same lifestyle... All the things that you get excited about nature and waking up and doing things that you've been dreaming of doing in your day... That is exactly what I want to do... Maybe not the exact same things but things I dream about like being in nature .... Traveling with my dog... Spending more time with family and friends especially my grandkids... So you give me hope cuz lot of people are negative about van life and those of us that understand that van life can be very positive and good for your mental health... Thank you for that I needed that positivity for the future that I'm planning ❤️
It’s not for everyone but definitely right for me 😊
I agree about phone .. I feel very protective about the first thing I listen to in the morning & the last thing before I sleep. I usually start my morning listening to scripture prayers while relaxing under a red-light mask. 😊 Then I sip on a citrus chai green tea & look at the weather, my planner & go from there.
Hello Brenna, oh gosh my darling independent woman, do NOT let anyone bring you down! You are doing VANLIFE perfectly and woman to woman youvery proud of you!!!!. My husband and I love your videos and we are VANLIFE people ourselves for five years now. Now safe travels to you and Abbey. Love from us. 🤗❤️😊😊🤗
Thanks Gail🥰
hey brenna dont listen to negative comments. there will always be critics. your videos are a breath of fresh air.
Thanks Gary, I have become quite good at hitting the delete button when they show up now 😂
Just keep being you that us why I like watching you.
Thanks Carlene 😊
The thing I love about you and your channel, is that it's calm, it's about what you do and feel, instead of where you are.
It's nice to see something else than just the travel vlogs, because they are sort of stressful to me.
It's nice to get those mental aspects of what travelling is. ❤
I’m glad you enjoy watching my journey 😊
The fact that you just be yourself and show the everyday things is why I enjoy your videos so much! Gives me a realistic idea of what life will be like when I finally finish my bus and hit the road :)
Thanks, I’m not a very good actor so I will stick to being myself 😂
I've always believed that the simple things in life are the best even as a child and watching you proves it's true ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Definitely 😊
Just started watching, but had to comment on how adorable Abby is under the blankets. So cute. 🥰
So cute 🥰
You: So peaceful, so quiet.
Abby: Woof!!
That cracked me up! 😂
She does have excellent timing 😂
I like to no were you camp it was next river I really liked with trees with yellow leaves lovely and sunny. 😎
New South Wales
Definitely don’t change. People watch because you are you.
Thanks
You look so comfy under your blanket. I love your videos as you’re not at all pretentious you’re authentically you and it’s quite evident that you love your lifestyle. I am delighted for you. I do enjoy watching your videos. ❤️👍
Thank you so much!!
Oh Brenna, just IGNORE any negativity! Everything you share is so positive, even if it's the not so good stuff about Van Life, as van-lifers, we get it! It's just so nice to see someone being real about this life. Thank YOU!!!
Thank you so much!!
I subscribed to your channel because I like you being you. You're like a friend I wish I had in real life! :)
Wow, thank you
Love your morning routine. I love my morning routines, which involves, sitting quietly, meditation, reading or listening to wise words. I have various apps I like and books to read. I might even play with oracle cards or Rune stones. The best times is when I can start the day gazing at nature. You are an inspiration. Keep being you. ❤
Your morning routine sounds lovely 😊
Sounds like my typical morning routine too. ❤️
This has been a delightful video dear Brenna, Abby by the creek with you was so very pretty. Thankyou for sharing your journey and thought’s with us all.

Another great Vlog, nothing better than waking up with your fur baby on the bed!(snoopy the Jack Russell ) here, cheers ❤️🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺
You have managed to capture the life so well, the morning cuddles the condensated windows, the lovely warm sun coming through the windows the views everything on your own time and doing whatever you want to do before what you have to do.
Thanks, it has taken me some time to work out what really matters.
Thank you😊 beautiful authentic inspirational sharing of you Abbey and your life ❤
Thank you so much!
Hi from Sweden 🩷 just started watching your videos, Love the life you are living and the views from a sunny winter day. Maybe I move down to a warmer place 🥶 Happy to see your healthy routines 🙏💫

Your such an inspiration. Thank you Brenna for sharing your life's adventures in the van with us.
You’re welcome 😊
Just keep being you your more than enough, love from Tasmania.
Thanks Carol🥰
Thanks for sharing your morning with us. I will occasionally add some shaved dark chocolate to my coconut yogurt, especially if I am having berries. Positive thoughts for your family. Happy travels for you and Abby.
Thanks Joanne, your yogurt combo sounds yummy 😊
I am really enjoying your podcast. I feel like your talking right to me. I also have to change my morning routine so thank you for the inspiration! Also Abby looks exactly like my pup who recently passed, so I love to see her. Thank you!
Sorry about your pup that passed.😘
you make my mouth water when you describe your breakfast. Sounds lovely.
Very yummy
Keep being you. It’s enjoyable to watch you live life on the road, in the camps, off the track. Loving it.
Thank you 🙏

Those pencil willows and weeping willows look so golden in the morning light
Beautiful 🤩
12:41 great idea, using the floor mat, as a drop cloth on your bed, while prepping your food.
It is actually a place mat.
Really nice peaceful healthy morning routine. I really enjoy all your videos. Just keeping doing you
Thanks Tanya😀
My brain is at its best in the morning so I do my bible reading and meeting prep, prayer etc as soon as I wake. Such a lovely spot you are at.

I think you will have all your questions answered as you watch the rest of the videos 😊

Okay 👍
Hi Brenna, my name is Josie. I'm 49 years old. I'm Brazilian, but I've lived in New Zealand for the last 12 years. I lived in Sydney for 1 year between 2016-2017.
In July it will be 2 years since I bought my campervan. A Toyota hiace high roof and long cabin.
I live full time in my van. But at the moment still parked and traveling around to the town where my kids and grandkids live. To be close to them.
But the plans were always to hit the road and do all of New Zealand. That going to happen soon. 🙌🏻🙏🏻
My van is white just like yours. And I named her Bonita. That means beautiful in my native language, Portugues. And I have the same bug curtain on the slide door. 😆
I subscribed and have been watching all the videos since the beginning.
And making sure of always giving a thumbs up.
I just love your videos and how authentic you are, and how you always think positive, and appreciate the little things.
Safe travels 🚐🙌🏻✨
Thank you for watching, I would love to travel around New Zealand in a van, maybe one day 🧐
You definitely have to.😆
New Zealand is beautiful. Safe for solo female travelers like us. There are even some groups for women travelers only on Facebook.
Apps help us find free camping everywhere.
Sometimes I see ads in vanlife groups. People wanting to swapping vans between Australia and NZ. For short or long term.
When you come this way let me know. We can arrange a road trip together.
Safe travels. And thank you for answering my message. 🚐✨❤️
Very lovely 🥰 so happy for you live your beautiful life so proud of you 👏 ❤
Thanks Cheryl 😊
Abby, and you are too cute together. I'm so glad I found your channel.
❤❤❤❤
Welcome!!
I need to get out of that habit too I still grab my phone first thing in the morning when I’m in bed
I have a wonderful morning routine. My favourite part is taking my dog for a walk on the beach every morning. ❤❤
Love that!
Great morning routine, l would love to get into meditating! What beautiful scenery to wake up to, I’m sure it helps to keep you motivated and in good spirits, lovely seeing Abby enjoying the water 🥰
Meditating is such a good way to start the day 🙏

Sounds like you have a great plan to get out and adventure 😊
We've been living your life for 7 months now , love it. Just got a small pup and now life is perfect . Love your video's keep up the good work .

Love your attitude. Not always easy to maintain routine. Enjoy this life you have chosen.

That's a beautiful location.

Hi Brenna I have just found your site and really enjoy your videos, you come over as very natural and friendly and I enjoy travelling with you. As a 75 year old lady who lives in England I am unlikely to ever visit Australia so look forward to discovering your beautiful country with you 👋👋👋
You are so welcome!
it’s a brilliant idea to keep the mind sharp and good to feed your soul.
It really is!
That breakfast of yours looks amazing, but why not add a dob of honey to it, perfection. You inspire me to eat much better 💕💕
It's so good!
Carbon monoxide CO is heavier so it will sit low. You need to be careful with Abby as she is closer to the ground 💕💕
Hi Brenna & Abby,my morning routine is to have that lovely cup of Earl Grey Tea. Then make the bed, get dressed & then breakfast. Great video today thanks ,Elaine from Brisbane Queensland.😊
Simple and effective, love it 🥰
You're doing great. Enjoy your life. Puppy is so sweet.
Thank you! You too!
That’s good to change one habit with another habit
I’ve heard that is the way to do it 😊
Good video, thanks for sharing. Nuts are excellent for texture (crunch), sadly apple skin is the only part of that fruit that is good for us.

Nice to see other 50 year old solo women living this lifestyle, please keep sharing.
Might see you in WA later this year.
@@BrennaLivingJoyfully that would be cool.
So glad to be here. Not looking for performance. I enjoy living vicariously through you until I get out there myself.
Thank you 🙏
I am from Northcliffe …70 kms from Manji…love seeing my playground on one of your videos….l also have a hiace …had her for fifteen years …she is reliable and l am thinking about doing some camping in my area with my dogs…l love your tips ..and your beautiful dog…really…what would we do without dogs..they are my company ..best friends…anyway ..l think you are my inspiration…so enjoying your videos
I love that area!
Greetings. Thanks for inspiring us again. Greatly admire your self-discipline. Wonderful to see you enjoying your time traveling
Thank you so much!
Lovely video thanks. My morning routine goes as follows. I wake around 6. I start with my prayers and affirmations, the first of which is Everything I need will be provided for me today..and it is. I then get up and watch a beautiful sunrise over the ravine at my window and do my meditations. I am blessed to have the ravine where a creak runs through. At 7a.m. the deer come around and have their breakfast. Watching the little one's in spring is such a joy. As I have my coffee while listening to the many birds that chatter around is a gift. I have 5 large pine trees where the cardinals and bluejays fight for the highest spot. Hugs to you and Abby.
Sounds amazing !!
Hello Brenna, I've just recently started watching your videos and I am thoroughly enjoying them! Love your energy, enthusiasm and authenticity! Thank you 😊
Thank you so much!!
I loved your scene transition via Abby’s fur!!! 😂❤
I try to get creative and usually have a lot of fun doing it 😊
Aww Abbie looks so cute under her blanket. I am housesitting with two dogs atm. One is so adorable. I wake up in the morning and his face is on the pillow next to mine. What a great idea to write first thing in the morning Brenna. My best time is morning and I have found by the time night comes around I am to mentally tired to write.
I’m really glad I found a way to fit in writing. This year is really going well so far.
Plus a black tea
Hi from Turkey! A very chill video, I like it.
And my routine? I like to do some editing on my computer while drinking a coffee. This because I wake up very early. After that breakfast (bread and cheese) and take the dog for a walk.
Just found your channel and I'm binge watching, I have just recently bought a hiace camper and this is so inspirational. It's also nice to see van life in Australia as there ones that I follow that are in the US. ❤
Welcome aboard!
Hello Brenna that was one beautiful place you were camped at. There is no way I could meditate with Pippa she would be climbing all over me. Brenna I real enjoyed your rock painting and would love to start doing it as well. would you be able to tell me what supplies I need to start and where you perched your tools and paints please. Thanks for sharing your morning routine with us stay safe and healthy and give Abby a cuddle for me. 💛🍀
Hi Anne, I found my rocks in the beach and used paint markers from Kmart.
A very enjoyable video , enjoyed your routine Brenna.
You are happy & contented, so relaxing to join you, see you soon x Lyn

Brenna! I just love your cheerful, sunshiny energy. I can feel it through the screen. You are so inspiring to me. I'm new, But an instant Fan. And Thank you for being you and sharing your life with us. ❤️🙏🌻
You are so welcome!
You have a wonderful morning routine Brenna Lynn, mine was watching your lovely video at 6.30 am here in Northern Ireland now its time to take my furbaby for his walk😊
Hope you enjoyed your walk🦮
Hi Abby, I love your videos and the morning is the best part of the day. I love getting up early and feeling like im the only one up and having the beautiful morning all to myself. I can agree with you that when you have a dog fur is on everything. I have a golden retriever and we travel on and off together, one day more permanently like you. Where are you it looks like somewhere around my area central west NSW xxx
Yes, I was in NSW, somewhere 🧐
❤❤❤
I'm definitely trying that comb for brekkie
Lovely vid thnx 🙏...I’m also full time digital nomad in my motorhome...also now on east coast nsw....yes v cold in mornings.
My morning routine very similar....I realised the distal tools must be off in mornings so that my creative juices flow... I add in my first cuppa
as I’m creative writing.
After that I meditate...then write my intention and plan for the day....then a walk b4 breakfast and on with the business tasks. Have a gr8 time.
...sorry for typo...DIGITAL. tools
@@jodie01 just keeping everyone on their toes 😂🤣 .Hmmm.. I should just put my reading specs on hey. :-)
Sounds like we have very similar routines 😊
Thank you for sharing your morning routine, it looks like a wonderful start to the day. I am an early riser too and always drink about a litre of water first thing (I have been doing this for years so I can drink the water quite quickly) then I put the kettle on for the first cup of tea. While the kettle boils I take my yoga mat outside if the weather is fine and doing some ‘salutes to the sun’ and some ‘animal flow’ moves. I am learning French using Duolingo and some free French language book sites so I usually do my French lessons while I have my tea. After that I get up and go for a run or walk, then have breakie afterwards. I really love mornings and always start my days feeling grateful for good health and the prospect of another day ahead.
Sounds like a great morning routine 😊
I'm telling everyone about your dishwashing hack with the spray bottle!! So useful. Thanks
You are so welcome!
I'm trying to get out of the habit of reaching for my phone first thing, too. 👍
You can do it!
Jolly good mzz pilgrims .. i hope your norr readin this in the morningkts ..😁pip pips n carryon
Nope, almost lunchtime 😜
Great video! I also had that problem with my phone-I’d just grab it in bed and start scrolling and reading news, but I didn’t’ like starting my day that way. Now I get up, feed my dogs and cats and then make my coffee and have breakfast, then comes the dog walk.
I love your videos and I really enjoy the fact you are yourself and showing your life the way it is. Don’t stress and keep doing things your way, you and Abbie are awesome! ❤ 🐾
Thank you 🙏
You are so right about the sun going down and suddenly it's very cold. Never mind we are on the heading towards Summer side. Hmm I love writing and haven't been able to fit it in for a few years. Maybe first thing in the morning or last before bed... no that would probably be counterproductive for sleep. I may try morning. Take care =-)
I initially tried writing before bed but my brain was too tired 😂
Ive come home from a long day at work and so happy to see your beautiful smile 😊 Great video as always ❤ such a pretty spot too! Your brekkie looks yummy, will have to try it!
Cheers 🥰
Oh Brenna,, love your video’s
Living life vicariously through you from my little beach shack in Sussex Inlet, Australia
A little beach shack sounds wonderful 😊
Dear Brenna and Abby, my cat Nevi and I want to be like you guys in a couple of years
Go for it 😊
I love your videos. You are so honest with everything. As a mother of two dogs I know how is living eating breathing dog hair.
What would life be without dogs 😊
I have coffee and journal in my recliner. I enjoy tracking the changes in the neighborhood trees. You routine is a good one…
I love trees too😊
Hi Brenna, you have a lovely winter morning routine. I will definitely try your yoghurt mix, looks delicious. My morning routine is make a coffee, feed Tim my beautiful dog and then spend time practising gratitude, cuddling Tim and then we go for our morning walk, followed by breakfast. I find great inspiration in your videos, Thankyou. Graham and Tim 😊 🐕
Your morning routine sounds very similar 😊
Thanks!
Thanks bestie 🥰
@@BrennaLivingJoyfully yay
Fire and the curtains my concern
Love your morning routine. I used to pick up my phone first thing in the morning and mindlessly scrolled for hours. It was wasting my time and mind. I changed my routine back in Nov 2022 by writing morning pages first thing with a cup of coffee. I gradually added meditation in January and a 15 minute walking/exercise as well as read Daily Bread. It all really helps focus my days (I took early retirement and moved from Toronto to northern Ontario). I now need to focus on a good nightly routine. I really enjoy your genuineness and calmness in your videos. You and Abby bring a sense of joy and peacefulness to the world. Safe travels 😁
Hi Jean, sounds like our morning routine is very similar. It must feel great to get out of Toronto, that city was way too big for me😊
Yes daily bread is very good reading
Also I like to read the Psalms and Proverbs
