1- Waking up earlier 2- Practice gratitude 3- Do not give-up 4- Daily planner 5- Listen to your gut 6- Being honest All are common suggestions but the way you delivered is special. We can feel the honesty👍

A habit that has made a huge difference in my life is to rely on myself. Whether it’s changing out a set of taps, installing a new light fixture, working out a budget or taking out the garbage, learn to do it yourself. There is real freedom in knowing that you can fix things, do things and not be helpless. Gender based chores have left people unable to do half of what is necessary in life.

I completely agree! I love doing things myself. Installing blinds, refurbishing furniture, hanging pictures, all kinds of things. It's a good thing to be self-sufficient 👍

One thing that has changed my life over time is making an effort to communicate with the people I come in contact with in daily life ... in a friendly, natural, and appreciative way. This includes telling people why and how you appreciate them, giving genuine compliments, limiting my interactions with negative folks, and making more of an effort to be a “helper” in life.

Night time cleaning routine. Getting a load of laundry started, dishes caught up and the house picked up before bed. Being a mom of six and a wife to an amazing hard working husband having that fresh start in the morning is an amazing feeling.

Being honest and standing up for myself in a confident not aggressive way has changed my life. I was a people pleaser, too generous in lots of ways and taken for granted. I won't be walked on anymore by friends. Even our retirement, meant that we were both retired so tasks are shared. No resentment as a result. We're enjoying life as 'seenagers'! Jx

"Seenagers" -- I love that! Being honest (in a respectful way of course!) is truly life changing. It's made such a big difference in my life! I know exactly what you mean :) Thank you for sharing Joan.

A habit that's changed my life is batching. So basically that means doing a bunch of ditty and potentially annoying tasks all in a row such as sewing, dishes, calling the bank, etc. Ah it feels beyond amazing when you get a bunch of those "need to get around to them sooner or later" tasks all done in a row!

Hello Meghan. You were right on point explaining “doing what’s best for you”. Listening to your gut is respecting your inner wisdom. While caring for my father several years ago, he left me with a parting sage quote. I stay tuned into this quote on a daily basis and share it when appropriate. This is one of those opportunities. “Take care of yourself, do what’s BEST for you, and don’t jeopardize what you have built for yourself.”

I can say that being honest with myself made my life more practical and effective. Sometimes we can get lost in life losing track of what we are and what makes us happy. Being honest with ourselves and knowing who we are make life easier and lighter.

It is just a week and I feel very refreshed because of this. I wake up in the morning very fresh and I no longer feel burden of daily house chores. Thanks dear ...

I felt so blessed after watching this video, I realised how strong I am and how I can be more stronger, at the age of 13 I'm already on my second life because my immune system is weak and I easily get sick and catch a virus . I'm still under recovery at the age of 14 after catching the same virus for the second time that it became severe and made doctors say that me being alive is a miracle , I'm so happy that God gave me another chance to live.

I love this video and I will be sharing it. Thank you so much

I woke up this morning(ish) in between a bass drum and a guitar amplifier, next to two women I barely recognized. After reaching for a Marlboro I turned on your latest video. Thanks for the post. I’m chipping away at a healthier lifestyle.💋

Thanks for sharing, Meghan. One of habits that changed my life is practicing meditation.

Meditation! I have what the wise ones in Buddhism call a "monkey mind"-my thoughts are all over the place to the point where I get stuck. I find that taking 20 minutes to meditate cleans the static in my mind and I can go on with my day. (Some meditations are also great for sleep!)

Thank you for all the great advice. :)

Trust your gut, that one is so true : ) you have such positive energy. Thanks for sharing.

Came across your channel today and I feel so refreshed after watching it. I used to practice most of the stuff mentioned but recently I don't know why - I just sort of strayed away and felt like life is stagnant and starting to question myself why am I not as good/successful as others. I am very glad that I clicked into your videos - they reminded me to have positive vibes/mindset towards life. Thank you and you're amazing!

I relate so much to your healthy habits, your views on beauty and your simple approach to life. I love the way you make your videos, very pretty, incredibly helpful and minimalist, but comforting. I really feel your passion and your gentle personality. I am grateful for you to share your own journey on natural health and wellness as I am too, making this wonderful journey. I have so much habits that changed my life, but one that helped me a lot on many aspects is slowing down, allowing myself to live at a slower pace and not feeling guilty about it. It's helps so much to enjoy the present moment and feel alive, where I realize I am okay and everything is alright :) I often feel disconnected when I see others going so fast and being so impatient, but I wouldn't go back for anything. I prefer to be a serene and happy turtle!

I think the last habit should be 'Being Authentic' rather than honest in my opinion.It conveys more effectively what you are trying to emphasise.Just being true to who you are and giving an honest and free expression of it in the world.💟

You are very inspiring!

I love your videos as someone whose recently realized that I trully need to work on my mental health ur videos are so heart touching ❤❤ watching these types if videos help me in continuing to help myself 😢❤❤

WOW, everyone of these is so wise. I am sharing this and so many of your videos with my children and friends❤️ Honesty and authenticity GRATITUDE 💚 Listening to our guts/ INSTINCTS💙 Personal agendas/organization Early morning rising 🤗 Perseverance 💗 These are all advice I have given my children. Another that I believe is so important in our ability to LIVE a rich, abundant life, is to be OPEN in our minds and hearts❤️ and accept all that life gives us. It’s that ability to see the obstacles as gifts the universe gives to guide and teach us💜

great video! Habits that have changed my life in recent years: Mindful meditation mainly for anxiety problems - I realized that the majority of our feelings start with a train of thought and your body eventually responds to it. Control your thoughts = control your emotions .... and be more present. I learned this through an MBSR course. Changed. My. Life. And possibly saved it. Other habit is stop self comparing. I believe it is one of the biggest killers of joy, at least for me anyway (for me stopping Facebook helped tremendously because you know everybody's life is perfect on FB, right? lol, although I peak once in a blue moon). The one habit I'm working on currently is decision making - I am absolutely awful because I over analyze things. Once again great video! .... Now to binge on your other videos, LOL. (I was initially brought here through watching house plant tours (purely informative of course, lol)
