“Everyday is going to be the bestest day ever” is one thing I always say to keep myself motivated 😊
Heretofore I have still not made or adopted even a single of those affirmations, because all the things they promise unto you, that tone thereof is so unrealistically bright, that to a man of rationality like me it all seems like a futile practice. Therefore, I cannot let myself adapt to that which I see as an irrational conception, since I will always go on to scan one's ideas and search scrupulously for any possible logical breaches that may exist therewith.
@@solonada9602 "Same life, another day" I always say that to myself cause if i say "its going to be the best day everyday" feel soo damn fake that it makes me erkk of cringeness

I'm not usually one for over sharing but I've just finished my first week of chemotherapy and I won't lie I'm scared of how it's affecting me, but your enthusiasm for the topic helped put my mind at ease. So thank you, you have no idea how much I needed this today
You are strong, remember that your mind is stronger than everything, so practice ways to cure what you can with thoughts, manifestation and positive energy. So your way through this becomes easier, happier and it might even cure you faster, I believe you can control many aspects of your body with your mind (it takes time, believing and practice)
@@anthonyszymon3032 Thank you for sharing. Over the last 50 years, I've lots of experience with loved ones having cancer and hiv, I've seen information & support help immensely. Treatment has improved a lot. I hope your treatments go well. a friend of mine recommended a healer and caster for me, she helped me out.
@@aaroncecil5381 wow, how can i get in touch, does she cure other sickness?
@@markharry8486 yes, name is Luana Kae Branigan
@@aaroncecil5381 wow, found her website, thank you very much for this.
I'm having a good day, just kinda bitter with my economic situation. Because it's hard to go see anyone I want to. Also thinking about how to deal with my dependence on my small income to get things done.
Sorry to make it political but you should read the communist manifesto (i think it is the name in english) it would help you to understand the "why" of your situation and giving you a kind of Hope. It has been the case for me.
I know how you feel. Single mom of 2, the oldest on the spectrum. Currently unemployed. Things are rough right now
Can you change a small part of that? One itty bitty part at a time ? ( cos making more money may seem like a huge project ?) what about updating your resume so you can apply for better paid jobs? Or ….. applying for a course at night so you can make more money ? From little things, big things grow. …
@@TheStoryTaylor would helping your on the spectrum child to find humour and laugh make your day better ? Would helping your on the spectrum child express gratitude improve your day ?
Get a second job or replace your current job with a high paying one you’re already restricted financially working harder or more won’t do anything but help
With therapy and mood stabilizers, I can focus on being grateful. But since getting help, my bad days aren't as bad as they used to be! Learning to give yourself grace, and being aware of triggers helps a great deal!
So glad to read this it's seems you have mad some massive steps to a better life congrats on all the hard work
1. Remembering to be grateful 2. Change your scenery 3. Do one thing at a time 4. Laugh 5. Help someone out 6. Prepare the night before 7. Hype yourself up 8. Relaxation 9. Take your time Bonus: Taking your time is great gratitude practice and helps you live in the moment.

Enjoyed this video a lot! , you might find my latest upload interesting. No pressure, just thought I'd share the love for the topic.
'Lord, help me to improve everyday' is the first thing i do when I wake up,. It feels good...
Agreed, me too doing this
@@kansaerisaulia2842 God bless you.
No such thing as a bad day... sleeping with the opportunity of waking up tomorrow is an absolute gift.
Yes, it's all about the mindset as well.

@@Psych2go WoW, thank you.. You guys must sleep like angels..

Affirmations I use: Good things take time Stay wierd Only compare yourself with your BEST self And that's what helps me go through tough times I hope it helps you too!
Weird
I find this extremely helpful
@@Skuint I'm glad it helps 😁 It's all I have rn but I'll find some more Affirmations that stick to me
It's weird * not wierd
A few months ago I was not in the greatest place mentally, but after a little while I started doing these things subconsciously and my mental state has improved significantly. Even if you are already in a good mental state, doing these things can help improve your day a lot
happy to hear your doing better
This is the first week I started writing 3 daily gratitudes. When I wake up and brush my teeth, I see the previous days gratitudes- like a song I enjoyed or the smell of the rain. I wipe away the previous date and the previous gratitudes and list tings that I'm grateful for that day. Every time I brush my teeth or take a look in the mirror, I am instantly reminded of the goods in my life. It's only been a week, but it has already made my days seem a little brighter.
I love this so much! This is a wonderful idea, keep it up cus u deserve all the happiness and warming gratitude
0:40 This first statement, "Remember to be grateful", really is true. Even just a small things in your surroundings, and the beauty of environment and our surroundings, gives us a better mood and peace watching the beautiful piece if scenery...
I've been noticing a positive change in my life these days. I didn't even know it's because I've been doing most of these things 😊 Still, I love this video and definitely will bookmark it. If there is one last thing I can add, it's that to know that sometimes, there will be those rare days that you might not feel the best. Even with the gratitude, hyping up, helping others, etc. My suggestion from what's worked for me is to just let yourself be. Cry if you need to, stay in bed if you need to, and give yourself that day off. Good luck to everyone ❤
😊
I’m struggling right now and if i am having a bad day then my mood will be too, after this video I know I’m not the only one going through this and thanks for the tips!! I’ll keep that in mind I’m so grateful I found this channel and the people here as well!!
Glad you feel heard!
As a university student I study all day almost every day and I moved out. This university life is hard for me not just mentally but also emotionally. In addition to that I fell in love with a girl there and after a long month of befriending her and looking for signs if she likes me, I decided to ask her out and I wrote her a song about it. Unfortunately she rejected me and I still feel sad about it. One of the things that I found more helpful is going on walks and travel, even if it is inside campus, it still makes me feel better and more relaxed
How are you today?
@@MarianaOliveira-lm4el Thanks for asking😊. I'm fine, I guess. I'm over that girl now and I'm taking some alone time. I focus more on my studies and hobbies instead if crushing on girls and getting rejected every time. I'm still sad sometimes because I want a girlfriend but I'm done with it being one sided, I want the other party to know my intentions right away. I thought about dating apps but I don't know if they are "18 year olds friendly". They are either about hook ups or getting married. I just want to feel loved. I'll buy her flowers, we will eat dinner at fancy restaurants and we'll cuddel in pajamas in front of the tv watching a series we watch together. Unfortunately, due to the fact that I don't have any way of meeting people, I won't be able to do that in the following months or even years
@@benlechner6352you will get a great girlfriend one day!!! Take care of yourself ❤
These animations just get better and better with each video ❤ they make learning about tough subjects a little bit better 😊
I see uh everywhere 😅
These videos are so cute. They often make me smile. I think i'd be able to enjoy them watching them on mute and ignoring their title. 😊
I decided to go to bed much earlier than I usually would for a Friday night because I recognized that I have an action packed day ahead of me, and right now I feel really really good. I feel extremely relaxed and ready to begin whenever I wish to! :)
Sometimes it’s hard to remember the little things that make us happy, thank you
Thank you for this video. I feel like I’m living the same day everyday, and it’s not a day I enjoy really. All my weeks are the exact same. Monday- school, ballet, homework, sleep. Tuesday-school, ballet, homework, sleep. Wednesday-school, ballet, homework, sleep. Thursday-school, nap, homework, sleep. Friday-school, rehearsal, sleep. Saturday-rehearsal, sleep. Sunday-sit and procrastinate all day until 12 AM and have a mental breakdown, sleep. All though there’s no way for me to change this cycle, I feel like using these tips will make me look forward to the day, and make me feel better when I go to bed each night. Also, if anyone has any tips on how not to procrastinate every Sunday, that would be so helpful and appreciated!
Words about meditation are just words. It’s taking the time to actually sit down and practice that help us experience the benefits.
I've never felt like I was really being talked to in a video, one of the tip's felt like Amanda was talking directly to me. This is why I love this channel, the approach and scripting is top notch.
Gratitude has turned my days around ! I keep a gratitude journal it’s my favorite part of the day ♥️
I personally always try to help people, relax and take some time for myself, practice gratitude and to hype myself up, and it makes me so much happier!
Hi, thanks for sharing this. it's really helpful for someone who felt demotivated these days. Starting a new habit or taking little steps can change our life
I cannot express how much I love this channel💛💛
Thanks for the kind words!
if you feel frustrated and hopeless, here's one quote that helps me : as long as you're alive there is hope.
These videos have helped me out of a near impossible climb of feeling of a meaningless, dull, merely existing life. There's no other videos that could be any more efficient, accurate and easy to understand. Thank you for helping me be my own best friend when I was my own worst enemy Pshyc to go.
Many of these has been helpful along with patience and not expecting a certain outcome. Taking a daily walk to look at the beauty of nature in and out of the city I love in has given me fresh appreciation on the little things that matter to me.
actually the number one...its so true like im grateful that im healthy sometimes...im grateful to live a life to breathe soothing air...im grateful because of god's beautiful creations
"learn to be in present moment" THATS RIGHT HOW COULD I FORGOT SUCH THING, thankyou for bringing me back to default, i always feel burned and stress out but i thought thats how i would grow and worth(no it causes malfunction tbh) thankyou so much also you did good animation and naration!! Well done❣️
this channel is my comfort zone😩❤️
I was smiling from start to end of watching this video. I’m glad I clicked on this. We appreciate your efforts in making this video for us!!! 🥰
Thank you for sharing these habits 🖤
I cannot express how much I love this channel
This channel has been such a staple for me as I’ve grown up and have been diagnosed with my own mental illness cocktail. Thank you so much for the digestible, very well worded breakdowns of our very human experiences 💛
i am relaxed when i listen to your voice
You have such a soothing voice
I love this channel💗😩
This animation was so cute I was literally smiling throughout and even the content is so helpful. Love the channel ❤
Going outside helps me improve my day. Changing scenery, fresh air, and moving my body are all helpful and part of the outdoor experience.
Thank you so much ❤
Your videos are always so calming! Thank you for creating such in-depth and useful content around mental health. Looking forward to more!
Thank you for watching!
This is super grateful, especially to those who are struggling, they need it the most. Thank you for sharing this video 😊
Being grateful is very effective. I sometimes just forget to do it and I feel overwhelmed by negativity. Walking/jogging works for me too. 🙂❤️ All these habits are very good, i will practice them more. 💛
I'm stressed and entering the depresion zone. I'll try to do these things . Thanks alot❤❤❤❤❤❤
You’re not alone! You’re doing great! Hope today is good
Thank you so much for your videos!! Your work is greatly appreciated 😊

Don't know how to express my thanks to you ma'am. I was really sad since a week and i came across this video and genuinely thank u so much for this tips. It made ray of sunshine in my heart that i will soon get better. Hope to get happy by following your tips! ❤
Already so excited for this video, been struggling. Love your guys videos and art❤
i truly enjoy the emphasis this video has on being in the present, especially about going outside. no matter what kind of day i'm having, appreciating nature always helps me relax and be grateful for the present! 🌱
Loki isn't Lucky
@@JohnBrown722so my name is Loki! I'm named after the Norse God 😃
i love this account so much
You can also try learning a new language. Trust me my friends, it's fun
I try every day 🙈 is really fun
A happy habit I've somewhat learned revolves around the 'it's the little things in life that matter' mindset. I am a student leader at Outdoor school and have worked as a mentor for summer school kids. Through this process I found in my best interest to keep my phone away from me at all times, which is why I got a watch! Try to ease into a less-internet-revolving routine by starting out small, ensuring that your work and your phone stay separate. This doesn't totally have to mean work, but also hanging out with friends. Leaving your phone at home or tucked away at the bottom of your bag which you leave behind somewhere helps give you reason to engage in something around you to pass the time. Since your phone is now out of the picture, wouldn't it be easier to pick up that book and read? Maybe draw on that notebook that's easier to obtain? If your phone is left at home, there's nothing you can do about it so you don't have to worry about missing something and instead you can fill your life with healthier hobbies and engage in enjoying them. In my experience, I wasn't suppose to have my phone out around the kids I worked with, basically ever, so when I found myself bored I'd instead have the option of being productive by finding a kid to help, doodling on that notebook I bring with me, or even just taking some time to stare around at nothing in particular and appreciate all the small details of the room. If you're an artist, the best thing you can do is observe the world around you more carefully, taking mental notes of all the small colors and shapes and the more you wonder, the more you learn and the better your next art piece may be. I had an eye doctor appointment today and apparently my eyesight is either... getting better? or at least slowing down in not getting worse. They suggested this might be because I'm spending less time on my phone which made me think of al my work experiences. All my work experiences took only a few hours out of my day of not being on my phone and finding ways to actively engage in things around me and it's doing something already! I even learnt that apparently you should practice getting into the habit of blinking when you stare at your phone because you often forget to blink. The flies that constantly bother me are probably what makes me blink so much but now, now I'm just constantly blinking cuz I can and I'm noticing small changes, like the fact that I'm now getting tired which hopefully means I can fall asleep now for the busy day tomorrow :)
I just loved the looks in this video, one of my favorites if you ask me.
this is a chanel whose arts I loved most
You all are the best 😭💖 I love you so much and I am so thankful for these videos 💝
Im exercising gratitude this year, and i am grateful for this video ❤
This episode made me smile. So super adorable and the tips mostly seem to be simple, but at the same time very smart. It's 5:25 PM. Honestly I was grumpy in my mind since morning and wasn't even enjoying today's nice meals and vacuum cleaning the flat and cleaning the dust in my room. Although it usually makes me feel satisfied... BUT this episode is the first ting, which made me smile today. Another episode to be VERY grateful for x3 Plus very nice funny and cute animation. This will go to the gratitude journal as a mention for sure. THANKS for making my late afternoon nice dear psych2go. I think this episode will be my second most favorite after the 6 habits to live a happier life x3
Relaxation and take your time are the things that i want to do.
watching your videos have been empowering, pleasant, and comforting. I'm grateful for healthy positive energy like this. kudos to you ❤️
This channel be helping me through so many ups and downs in my life for past years. Really love your content .so much information and very interesting . ☺️❤
Thanks for all your great job, help and your beautiful animations!😊
Thank youuuu, I really needed this video😭💖
Your voice is very nice. Thank you.
Great animation and great advice as always! Thank you so much! ❤
Thanks psy, your advices and cuteness cheer me up a lot on my bad and stressful day.
Thank you, your voice calms me, thank you for this.
Really appreciate your channel in such chaotic and saddening times. Keep it up!
I just love the adorable little sprouts u always use in your videos!
This made me feel better 🪻. I’ve done a few of these. Meditating in the morning like at 6am with candle 🕯️ on and a yoga mat is also a fun idea❤
your voice is so soothing and calming
Hearing her voice is a relaxation exercise that helps me slow down, do one thing at a time, I often laugh when I watch these videos which gives me more energy to prepare for the day of seeing patients, and I am grateful for this channel.
Glad you enjoy her voice! Do you have any requests?
I really enjoy your videos. There's always one on a topic that I'm struggling with. They're like little pick-me-ups when I need it..
I agree with your assessment. Just yesterday I had a, "Murphyes Law day", one thing after another going wrong. However I found that with each problem, I found a way to "solve it" even though temporarily. For example: When I still in school, My pants button came off and my zipper opened. I didn't have my travel sewing kit but I did have some floral wire from the class before. I cut the wire at an angle to a point and stuck the button back on until I got home. I find that when you have a MacGyver mindset to fix things, you won't have bad days based on unforseen problems.
Loveeee ur channel it's my daily/weekly motivation..... When ever I feel low I just came here... And Literally always feeels Refreshed ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your gentle voice and nice information presented ❤
The art is adorable and the voice is so soothing. I could fall asleep watching these, so calm and nice
1) Remember to be grateful 2) Change your scenery 3) Do one thing at a time 4) Laugh 5) Help someone else 6) Prepare the night before 7) Hype yourself up 8) Relaxation 9) Take your time

Thank you so much this is something I really needed ❤
This is so cute and productive ❤❤
My dog of 14 years passed away on the 9th this month and I’ve fallen into a grief depression. Every time I smile or forget that she passed away, I immediately feel guilty and don’t smile again for the rest of the day. I think bad days are ahead of me, but I’ve come to accept that I can still remember her for all her amazing memories with me and still be happy that I got to have her as my best friend since the age of 3.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you, really needed that rn. Feeling hopeless and exhausted, I definitely need to change up some things to deal with myself better in a kinder way..
me too
in love with your channel, THANK UUUU
I don't know what to said but this channel did change me little bit, never been so grateful

Hi! I know that life can be hard sometimes, I’m going trough a hard time too rn. I’m sure you’ll reach your goals!
I really needed this! Thank you so very much!!😊❤ This made my day!! 💕💗
JUST WHAT I NEEDED TO START THE DAY
Thank you, I really need these tips. The last is so helpful “take your time” ❤
I used to be productive before, had bad days but made it through without a mental breakdown, but since last winter vacation our school gave, I started messing up my habits little by little. Before I used to sleep at 19 and wake at 4 but during holidays I slept late and woke up late. Slowly it started messing up my other habits such as praying on time etc. I struggled the most during exams, was always at my lowest and had the mindset of "jo hoga wo dekha jayega" (let's just see what happens)(idc basically) Now it's 27 March, school starts in 4 days, need to get myself together. (Yes should've started early but imma still do it)
Stroke the cat. In the morning my anxiety is especially bad. Making a fuss of my cat lowers cortisol levels and helps me to relax. She loves it too. Every other morning I brush her, which she loves. Her purring is so therapeutic for both of us.
