I am 54 years old and I have several stuffed animals, some from childhood and some recently bought. I share my bed with a teddy bear named Basil. He has been a great comfort to me since my mother passed away last year, I often fall asleep cuddling him.

Dear, don’t feel like that. These are just insane society patterns created to make us to lose the happiness life has to offer. I’m 29 years old, I love small plushies and cute/pastel stuffs, I’m so proud of be breaking these patterns to be who I really am. Never worry with the thoughts of others, your wisdom must come first to win all negativeness and just live happily 🎀

Wow… The first minute of this video felt like my sweet mom was speaking directly to me. She passed away this last Thursday evening after a month in the hospital. She collected teapots, it was one of the many beautiful unique things about her. The lyrics of the song broke me into pieces and comforted me at the same time. I’ve been waiting for a message from her and while it could be coincidence I’m choosing to believe it’s something more. Thank you for sharing Desi, it was a beautiful video. ❤️🫖✨

Sending you a warm hug. Somehow you will survive this. I was you a year ago. There will be a lot of days you think about it all the time and times you will be able to smile. Desi’s videos have been a part of what has helped be build a life after losing my mom. She kind of gives you a way to learn to be happy about small things. Another friend of mine lost her mom 8 years ago and she tolled me something that helped a lot. When you feel your grief at the worst, sometimes it’s enough to just exist. It helped me get through the pain, more that hearing it will get better. It will though, it just sometimes doesn’t help to hear, cause it is so far from how you feel in the moment. Just know that you are not alone ❤️ my friend also tolled me that with time, thinking of your mom will not being you sadness, but joy over your memories ❤️

Romanticizing your life is just living with intention. ❤️

I literally called off of work today for the first time in years, this video couldn’t have come at a better time. Also, I’ve been telling my friends/family about how much romanticizing my life has changed my mental state for the better. The little things truly aren’t so little, anymore. Thanks for helping me realize that. 💕

This has truly come at a serendipitous time for me! I am in the midst of a bad flare up in my chronic illnesses and was feeling gloomy and wretched. I’ve been so discouraged that the little fixes that normally make a small difference to my health left my pain and lethargy un-dented. You are so sweet and generous! I hope you have a great week :)

I have 2 stuffed lambs, Lambs and Lambert. Mango was with me throughout my cancer treatment. One or both are cuddled with me at night. I'm 62, no shame.

I’m recovering from Covid right now and this video made me cry. Before being sick, I’d distanced myself from all the lovely little things you do here (because I thought it would make my life easier and cheaper) but when I saw you reading to the trees I burst into tears. Thank you so much for making this video - now I want to get back to these little, beautiful things 💕

I was recently in a bad accident, and I've been recovering my ability to walk for the last two months. In that time, I've been watching your videos for comfort to ease my anxiety and to relax. Seeing that you have a new video made me so happy! I've been following your health journey too, and I wish you a quick and speedy recovery. If you have a P.O. box, I'd love to send you a care package. Happy Spring, and get well soon! 🌺✨❤️

It’s so sweet when a follower would like to send a care package. It really feels like a community.

What a timely video for me! I was diagnosed in January with several autoimmune diseases (including Rheumatoid Arthritis), so I have quite a lot of "bed parties" haha. What started as a massive bout with EBV/Mono in 2019 just continued to spiral and seems to have "activated" the AI issues...nasty things viruses! They can take quite a toll on one's physical and mental heath, but all your recommendations are just amazing for boosting one's spirits (which certainly plays a huge role in feeling better physically)!

I know I'm not the only one who can actually feel Desi's videos. It just has that soothing vibe 🤍

Sorry you had Covid. It can be a killer for some. Good you are on the mend. I was sick for about a month. However I am now fully vaccinated, as being a senior one must be extra careful. Do live each day the best you can and always enjoy the little things.

this couldn’t have come at a better time. my anxiety and depression are spiking along with my chronic illness, and been spending a lot of days in bed. this video made me feel a little bit better about it. 💕

Going through a break up right now and Ive found that immersing myself in another era has helped distract me and keep me sane during this hard time. This video was so helpful too! Thank you! 🤍May we feel better soon and have a very happy year! I think we deserve it!

I feel you girl i was stuck in bed during months at the pic of the pandemic when the entire world was in lockdown and i was very very sick, praying every nights to not have to go to the hospital, it was so difficult and i thought I was dying. But when I was healed it was the best moment of my life. So grateful! ❤

This is such a perfect characterization of some beautiful ways to show gentleness and compassion toward yourself when you are having a hard time. Self care at its finest. When things are dark, it's the small pleasures that can make a bit of light. Thank you.

Omg Desiiiiiiii !!! I missed you and your videos!! So excited to watch this!!! 🥺💝

This was a really wholesome video, that really inspired me to be more kind to myself and enjoy the little moment you can give yourself as a treat. You were the first video that made me aware of our own ability to romanticize your life. It doesn't just happen (sometimes maybe).. it's created. So thanks and I hope you feel well soon. All the spring flowers have arrived here, I hope they'll come your way soon

As someone who is chronically ill, I needed this video. Thank you ❤️

this is the first video of yours I've watched...and WOW. You put so much care and thought into your videos: the camera angles, the shots, etc. Not to mention, everything about this video just made me feel cozy and happy.

I like that you read to the trees, when I’m driving through the woods sometimes, I’ll roll down my windows if I think the trees will like the song I’m listening to, and I’ll almost always sing along

A lovely reminder that we can find joy even when we're struggling. I also got Covid in the beginning of January and while I was only "sick in bed" for a week or two, almost two months out I'm still dealing with getting my "normal" back. I look well from the outside, I even feel well, but lingering symptoms continue on that exhaust me. People can see the the part of me that is functioning, but can't see the extra effort it takes when, for example, I've been up most of the night trying to stop a coughing jag. It's made me reflect a lot on the hidden struggles we all deal with in one form or another.

It’s a hard place to be, and I commend you Desi for getting out of bed, keeping up with your reading and even when you don’t want to go outside, you do anyway and spend it with nature. Just know, it won’t last forever, darkness always fades to light xx
