I have become accustomed to my “tea time”. I actually prepare my thermos and during the week my tea time is often while I sit in the car rider pick up line at the school. Maybe not the best setting but I am alone, quiet and it is the calm before the afternoon and evening activities. When I don’t have it I really miss it!!

Every woman should give herself a ‘small luxury treat’ on a regular basis, whether it is a new perfume, a favorite pastry from the local bakery, a sparkling bangle. This is very important to remind herself of her delights!❤️

As a public school teacher in lower income area, I would play classical music in the morning before and during students arriving and getting settled. Then in their private personal reading time I would play it very softly. It helped me and them stay calm. Then after the children left I would play it just for me while I reorganized and planned for the next day. I am retired now and love your videos.

I had forgotten that way back in ninth grade in PE we had a relaxation time at the end of class sometimes when there would be soft music and we were told to concentrate on relaxing our scalp...and then our forehead, ears, eyebrows, eyes, jaw, lips etc. all the way down to our toes. It was very surprising how focusing our mind's eye on each part of our body was significant to how relaxed we became.

Part 2 please! Or a series! Thanks Jennifer 💛

Jennifer, Thank you for reminding us to be good to ourselves. I've been working since age 17 and I would love to explore a diiferent way to work. It's not that I hate my job as a nurse, but I'm required to work 12, 14, 16 hour shifts, which was OK in my 30s, but not at this time in my early 50s. It seems that I'm always pouring out to my patients and my husband and it's so hard for me to create and maintain a nice home. Thank you for encouraging us in so many ways. I have tried to listen to some other youtubers in the home/lifestyle/personal development space, but some of the ladies seem to be nearly preaching at women and even saying rude things to folks who are at least trying to improve. So many things set you apart, but my favorite thing is that you have such a calm and inspiring way of suggesting a different way of looking at things as well as alternate ways of doing them. You are so good at guiding and encouraging and you are such a blessing!

Now hearing you mention it makes me feel a little less looney. I incorporated tea time about a year ago thanks to you. It gives me permission to have a moment of nothing to do but rest and have a little treat.

Jennifer, I've been catching up on your videos over the last week. I used to watch your videos religiously from 2013-2019, but pewtered off when things got busy over here. I was a little apprehensive to start back because I had noticed my energy fading as I get closer to 40 and you were always so energetic and "get it done!" It's so inspiring and refreshing to hear that after all of these years, we're still so similar, with the need for rest at the forefront of our thoughts. Thank you for your decade of inspiration to my life!

Thank you for reminding us of these very important questions. 💕

I think you could do a book on #2 & 3. I love how you show that rest can include going out into nature, as well as reading a book (I like both). And, I have been curious about your and the French consideration of “expressing your true style” and wearing clothes that flatter you, since reading your first book. And, yes, to a Part 2 like this. 🌻

Jennifer - I cannot thank you enough for bringing Paula's Choice beauty products to my attention! I have been trying to break up with Mary Kay products for years, because they are such a pain to order with, sales reps are flakey, and as I am entering my mid 30s and have baby #4 on the way, their products have went from being life changing to only "meh" for my tired, dry, sensitive skin. I ordered a travel kit to try out the Resist line of PC, and I LOVE IT so much!! My skin looks better in just days than it has in years. And it feels healthier most importantly. Thank you so much!! Because I have had sensitive, redness prone skin since I was very young, proper skincare is one of few luxuries I allow for myself, and so it is really important to me to use good quality products 😀

My hair loves Briogeo products, I’ve been using them for over a year and they brought my severely damaged back to healthy.

These definitely helped me. I'm a FTM/SAHM and I'm 9 weeks postpartum and an artist (illustrator) at heart. I've buried time to spend on my art over the past year and it's been a huge struggle since I've had my son. There's been many tough days. 😅 Drawing is an essential part of my identity and I need to reclaim that. Adding time to relax and spend on myself/art should be added to my chores. I always feel like I need to be doing chores constantly. I never used to be like that but since I started a family.... You know how it feels, Jennifer. 😅 I also want to start journaling again like I did in highschool and get back into using IG. 💙

I adored this, Jennifer! As a woman in my last 40th year, I can attest to all of the pathways explored in your questions. This year I will become a published poet, after putting my dreams on the back burner whilst raising my kids.

I think many people underestimate the power of breathing exercises. I hadn't heard of cocoon breathing before, but I've had great results at deep breathing exercises. The biggest game changer for me was when I placed more focus on exhalation and making sure I exhaled enough air. Anxiety symptoms like hyperventilation can be caused by a build up of CO2, basically you aren't exhaling enough. So sometimes when people try deep breathing exercises, they focus too much on inhaling deep breaths and forget to exhale fully, making their anxiety even worse. So don't forget to exhale as much (or more) than you inhale!

You are the Best!!!

Speaking of caffeine… I have switched over to using Nespresso Vertuo decaf and half caf pods and I feel so much better. I made the switch by making both a regular coffee and adding just a little bit of coffee to my decaf and I did that until I was out of regular coffee pods. Yes. The decaf flavor to me isn’t as intense. I don’t want to completely lose my tolerance for caffeine. Which is another reason I’m also drinking half caf.

I had been drinking too much caffeine and tea to the point where it was interfering with my hormones. I decided to take a break from all caffeine (this is day 4 and I’m finally coming out of the caffeine withdrawal 😅) but I will slowly add 1-2 cups of tea back into my daily routine. I will also make room for more rest so I won’t feel the need to consume an excess amount of caffeine. 💗 Love your videos!

I thought I was the only one who scheduled rest into my planner. Now, do I actually get to it is another matter altogether, but it's a goal!. 😁 Another great video!

Q #1 was not what I was expecting... profound! to harness my productive energy creativity I do a rose meditation with cacoon breathing that brings me to BLISS. YOU inspired my tea time xo

Thank you Jennifer! I appreciate your videos and learn so much. My question is this- regarding the amount of work and the load you had in your 30's do you think the rest discussion is applicable to someone trying to do more with their life than homemaking and raising children? I find it a lot of work to just get homemade healthy meals on the table along with a clean house and my children to feel loved and taught good values and morals! How do we go about pursuing those extra things and take the time to properly rest. Do you think it could have been attainable in your 30s knowing what you know now?

yes

I would definitely like to see a Part 2 . . . For too long now, "romanticism" has become non-existent in my daily life. I do NOT mean that I want more romance (re: memorable date nights). I'm speaking about my choice of literature. My overlooked tea time where I also used to place fresh flowers and a special blend of calming essential oils along side my pot of tea that sat there on the table. My intentional selection of soothing background music. I could continue on, but enough said. I just need to bring that back into my life😔.

This was a timely video for me. I’m also curious (off topic) where you got your shirt from? I’m trying to find a past video that mentions it, but it’s absolutely gorgeous.

where is the link for the recipe please? It looks amazing!

This video is a beautiful way to remind us that self-care is also important. We are workers, mothers, wives, daughters, but we cannot forget that we are people with our frustrations and longings. Yogur tíos are very useful to stop, reflect and see what we need to implement in our daily bases. I definitely encourage you to do a second part. Thanks. Wising you a nice week ✨
