"getting good and enough sleep is truly a privilege that we truly take for granted" SUCH a powerful truth! Also a realization not many recognize.
Thank you for backing up facts by science like saying that people that don't sleep as much are just used to the negative habits - that really opened my eyes. And, of course, thank you for the best motivation ever, I'm ready to start studying and organising myself now :)

Now this comment made me realize something too. I've been driving my force to get better. It happened 3 times now for the past. I would exercise, feel my best, then something happens and I come back down for the next few months, then again I wanna turn my life around, try to change my lifestyle, exercise, the same thing happens and I come back down for the next 3 months. Then again... but now that I think about it, I just never got used to my new lifestyle and habits and never learned to adapt to it cuz im so used to my negative habits. I tried to change my mental habits as well as I've been struggling with depression for 3 years since pandemic, but it seems pretty hard, and I keep thinking I need a therapist to help me get out the negative things and emotions I've kept hidden within my mental barrier to protect myself. Now I realize how much I've been sustaining myself. I never grew comfortable with me. No matter how much I tried, there's always a problem because I was too afraid to confront it, being scared I would fall back down into a depressive hole and stay there for a nother few months.

How's it going Ivan ? 😊
Idk who needs to hear this, but since this is an inspirational video, I’ll share the quote that I think of whenever I’m down. This is the quote that keeps me going. I live across the country from my family, and whenever I’m in that period of funk where I just feel like I can’t, I remember this. “For every tear that falls to the ground, there is water for a flower to grow. You will feel empty, unmotivated, tired, sad, and alone. But remember, when you open your eyes, you will be in a bed of flowers.”
i really like how you included the findings of studies in this video, it shows that you think critically and it was really cool to learn to things because of what you included. also, you’ve inspired me to try some of these habits too ☺️

on the sleep deprivation thing, before i was disgnosed with adhd i became almost "addicted" to the adrenaline high of being sleep deprived. So when you mentioned consistently undersleeping makes u perform as if you were under influence, makes that addiction make more sense
hope you enjoyed this longgg video ☺️ what habits do you want to start? follow my Instagram @rebeccajay111 💗 it’s my bday in 9 days and it would mean the world to me if you liked and subscribed! have a lovely dayyy

My ex and I broke up two days ago. Trying to focus on other things now and I will start this tomorrow, when I wake up. I think this will help me. Thinking about doing a vlog about it- just for me :) You motivated me. And the comments here are so positive! Love this!
I love how real you are in this video. There is nothing wrong with missing a few tasks because your schedule get mixed up. And I love that you provide information about the habits. Sometimes I get overwhelmed and can’t brush my teeth twice a day or even once a day, very rare when I can’t at all. Some days I just wake up late and don’t feel like it and just stay in bed and I let myself stay in bed bc my body is telling me I need it. I need a mix of both productivity and relaxation, whatever the relaxation is. Some days that’s laying in bed on my phone. Other days, that means eating unhealthily. When I try to force myself to not do “unhealthy habits” I can’t actually relax bc I feel guilty for doing it, but overwhelmed trying to be productive. All I have to say is don’t let yourself go but don’t think of unhealthy habits as only bad.

I’m literally only 2:00 minutes into this video and already I’m getting motivation. She has such a calming aura about her. SUBSCRIBED 😊❤
upon finding your channel a year ago you've really made me reflect upon how I'm influencing my life negatively without realising it. it's often hard to stick to the advice, but I'm on my self improvement journey 💗

i just wanted to tell you the appreciation i have for the effort you put into this video, doing the research on these habits, filming your life for a week, editing this video with all of the text you had to add and 7 days worth of footage, plus having to make the voiceover and film your final thoughts and put in the effort to do these habits in the first place. just letting you know the work you put in is appreciated and recognized

Rebecca I just want to thank you so much u have helped me in my journey. Even though it's not easy, u have helped me to keep moving forward, thank u so much for being an inspiration. I have been blessed ever since I found your channel, u make me feel positive and happy about my body and you don't make me feel jealous and hate myself like other channels. I love you, keep doing what you are doing, your fans are here to support you and don't change for anyone ❤️❤️. Love from a girl in Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬
I have been in such a negative headspace till I found your channel. You are so realistic, even when you messed up your sleep you were honest and it helps to know not everyone is perfect all the time. You are such an amazing person and I can just say that you have changed my life die the better. Thank you so much for your content you are truly the best part of my days.
This is my first video I watched by you. I just wanted to say thank you. I love how real you are about your lack of perfection. I feel like that is something that is lacking in a lot of social media outlets. These other presentations make it so hard for us to accept our own struggles. But we are all human. And that is what makes life so interesting. Keep on keeping it real.
i LOVE how you really researched all these habits, i can really tell how hard you worked on this video. also love your editing style!
I’m really happy that I’ve found a channel that is positive yet real, love to see your motivation it’s so inspiring. Also love how you said “bragging about lack of sleep or bragging about unhealthy habits” bc it’s so true and it’s so annoying to hear people bragging about that
This is the most motivating video, i’ve watched so many and still lay in bed and scroll but now i feel like getting stuff done and trying it out for myself! I love that you still put in the fact that it was rough on Day 6, it can’t always be perfect but you still try and keep going 😊
literally the motivation I needed for getting my life together, and being more organized for school lol. hoping i stay true to myself and actually commit and stay consistent. also i love how you literally did research and went into detail about different habits people may have, i just know you spent hours doing that plus filming, and editing. happy late birthday lol!
I'm so lucky i came across ur channel months ago. I love how real u keep things and try ur best as a person. It's beautiful to see, thank you for your comforting videos❤️
you and emma are my number one favorite persons on youtube, whenever I'm feeling down or unmotivated I turn on your videos on my TV and start my daily routine or clean up alongside.. you help me and my mindset so much with your calming and encouraging personality, you are an amazing and lovely person

I just found your channel and this video gave me the inspiration to clean my bathroom and I'm currently trying to sort through some journals I have in my room. And being productive doesn't have to be an everyday thing, I've learned. Keep being positive and helping to inspire others! You're awesome!
Wow this was incredibly inspirational. Sometimes I get a lot of anxiety trying to figure out which tips or advice are actually going to be helpful or which pieces of advice are “correct” and which ones are just being fed to me through the media. It can be hard to decipher truly… this helped me realize that research and experimentation and customization are the things that are going to help me most with that. Thank you so much. And this is the first video I’ve seen from you im definitely on board now ❤️❤️ thanks for sharing
Thank you for this video. This is not just a tutorial but telling folk why these habits are so good for them overall backed by science. I appreciate the effort put in this and grateful you posted this video! 😊
I love how you said I would rather admit I don't know enough then to give you wrong information. The sincerity to admit and that honesty is so refreshing.
LOVED this video! I’ve been debating starting to train running again (have an old hamstring injury) but you have inspired me to go grab my runners and get the heck out there ! This Monday will be the start of my new habits ❤️ thank you!!
your timing is always on point!! i just started some habits that i want to keep, it's crazy how little things can completely change your life and your mental health.
So I just subscribed and I really love how calming and aesthetically pleasing your videos are. I’m kind of in my healing era rn, I had a rough school year and I fell in to a really dark place for awhile and I’m finally climbing out of it and this video is giving me more motivation to be better. Thank you sm and I will be back to watch more of your videos. ❤❤
I really enjoyed this video! I appreciated the referencing to studies and sharing the information you have learned. I took me awhile to realize a lot of us are in similar positions or on similar journeys if you will. It’s not only very refreshing to watch videos like this but it’s motivational, inspirational and all of the above ❤ I love how we can learn so much from each other.
Honestly you are the only youtuber who actually gets me motivated in a healthy way, i always look forward to your videos. This might sound weird but me finally having a life i like is thanks to you. I want to really thank you.
Thank you Rebecca for this very helpful and super detailed video. I can’t imagine the work you put into filming daily and editing. Great job. I also appreciate your honesty, when you didn’t have 8hrs of sleep, you showed that as well. That was genuine of you ❤. This video really inspired and I’m going to try out some of the things I’ve learned. Thank you once again
you are one of the ONLY reasons i still watch youtube. i always look forward to your videos and learn something new every time ❤️
Every time rebecca uploads I get so glad that I get to see a new video of hers Hopefully she's doing all of her hard work while still getting enough time off for herself and that she an amazing inspiration :)
ily! I'm so glad you're posting again! Please keep going! You motivate me in a healing way!
I'm not joking this is a serious straight up, statement. I'm gonna go back to school looking like a queen, I'm blocking all the toxic people in my life, I'm gonna have a glow up, I'm gonna start eating more healthy, I'm gonna start exercising, I'm gonna get more sleep, I'm gonna be more hydrated, I'm gonna journal, I'm gonna meditate. This isn't a chore this is something for my health to make me feel good about myself this video inspired me sm! Ty❤️
Your channel is literally a blessing to me.☺️ I'm so glad to have found you. Keep inspiring, keep shining. Waiting for more such videos! Lots of love to you.🥰
This is such a good video!! I loved that you explained why the healthy habit was good and what it does, unlike some KZreadrs that just push you into doing the habit. I’m going to try this and see if it works!!! Thank you so much 💗
Wow, what an awesome and informative video! I love how you took on the challenge of trying out 12 different healthy habits while digging into the science behind them. It's so refreshing to see content that goes beyond the surface and really examines the truth behind these habits. Your commitment to debunking myths and providing evidence-based explanations is truly impressive. Plus, your engaging narration and the visuals you used kept me hooked throughout the video. I learned a lot and can't wait to see more content like this. Keep up the great work!
thank you for being uplifting and being fine and real💕
This is such an honest video because most videos like these always show the perfect side of these routines. I love how you did your research and shared it with us and you stressful moments it makes us all relate to you and your content and makes me remeber I'm not alone ❤
ive been trying to get myself motivated to do stuff without luck for a while watching this has really made me want to try again and stick to it to improve my life and health, thank you for making this video
you're literally my main person I go to for motivation :) thanks for all the hard work you put into your video!
I truly enjoy watching your videos they are so calm and relaxing! Much love Rebecca
thank you so much for including brushing your teeth as a task!!! most people do it automatically, but for people with depression, adhd, autism, anxiety and/or other neurodivergent conditions brushing their teeth can be a real hell of a task, which in turn makes them (us, i should say) silly in front of others who find it easy. so thanks for taking some of the bias away!
thank u for taking the time for doing and sharing this, you're such a motivation. hope u are doing well 😊🤍
This honestly motivated me so much, you clearly put a lot of hard work into this video and it made a huge effect, i feel so much more motivated and your voice just matches perfectly. Thankyou for adding years onto all of these peoples livex xxx
Hi! Decided to watch this on the treadmill today. You inspired me so much and made me feel like healthy habits were important and easy to implement! This is the first video of yours I've ever seen and I think you're so sweet and relatable. Great job! ❤️✨🌈
this video is so relaxing, so motivational and answers the many questions one comes across while following 'that girl' trend. your videos are always worth the wait for this wholesome 33 minutes. thankyou 😍
I just went to my health app and activated the steps! Thanks for the encouragement Cambria! I love your videos and always look forward to learning from you ❤
Rebecca , this video was amazing and has really inspired me to implement healthy habits into my day (especially reading before bed instead of scrolling on my phone) 🥰
This is the first video of yours I've seen and it was so motivational. I had already decided to try an "Active August" and I paused in the middle of your video to go for a morning walk. Thanks for the motivation! Now I just need to work on the 8 hours of sleep thing. Wish me luck. ❤️
Second time watching this video, I watched a year ago when I was just starting my productivity journey and again today when I decided to try and pull myself out of my 3 months long slump. It's good to go back where you started from sometimes.
I'm so happy i came across this video despite it being published a year ago cus DAMN, my motivation spiked. Just seeing you finish all of your routines with such a healthy mindset was so inspiring, i literally changed my entire routine the next day to be just as healthy as yours in this video. Gahh if i didn't see this i'd still have over 10+ of screen time, so thank you!
Such a well edited and calming video! I love your energy and authenticity😊
I honestly really appreciate this video. Opened up more knowledge for me and I like how calming this video is. Nothing to crazy and perfect little video to watch when relaxing in my down time:)
thank you so much for this video! ever since i lost my jolast year i havent been able to get my life back together, its time to do it. always trying to be perfect has led me to even worse mental state then i was - progressing should be priority. i will definietly try this challenge :)
I love the way you make videos, they’re so relaxing to listen to! And they give me so much motivation and hope 💖 hope you’re having an amazing day Rebecca
Just found your channel and I can't wait to watch more of your videos!! I loved this habit challenge and how honest you were, and I definitely feel inspired to adopt some of these into my own routine!
I really appreciate you going the extra mile and doing so much research!
Love the realness and that you show up the way you are. Extremely motivational, great job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I listened to the video while I was showering and getting ready for bed and I now have motivation and energy for the start of a new week thank you ❤
I love how much this taught me! Thank you for doing your research.
Can’t wait 🥰 I’m def getting bored on staying all day on my phone nowadays this video will give me ideas on what to do instead Good work Rebecca
I literally love all of your video’s. I’m always so happy when you’ve posted. You are so inspiring. Keep it up❤️
honestly, these habits and following them daily takes so much motivation so well done. I personally printed out a checklist so I tick them off as I complete them. Definitely see an improvement in my mood and attitude towards work and overall wellbeing and energy.
this video was the first one that popped up when i searched "motivating lifestyles" lol. I've gotten to the point where i stay up till 2 and wake up at 11, then scroll on my phone all day. Sometimes I don't even feel like showering. But this video made me realize taking care of myself can be fun! I just want to thank you. For encouraging others to live a healthier lifestyle!❤❤
I really love long videos like that. And I also loved your take on the breakfast - it is the best advice regarding this topic that i ever heard
such a good video babe worth the editing! love that you showed day 6 and kept going bc that’s when i get defeated… gonna try this and track it😊
Your videos are so relaxing, inspiring, reassuring, and honest. I truly feel better after watching
i loved this video so much! it’s so informative, the editing was outstanding and it gave me peaceful vibes 🤍✨ Not to mention that u’ve definitely motivated me to get back on track. Thank you!! 💓💓
love the fact this video is longer than others! wonderful video as usual ❤️✨
hi girl, that was the first video I saw from your channel. It helped me a lot because I was struggling with doing the most of this habits. You're amazing and this video motivated me so much! thank u ❤

excited for you to watch too!!
i've been procrastinating for such a long time now, ever since i started college which was almost 2 years ago now. i've been in a really bad place and even tho it's summer, i have to study a lot because i have 4 more exams to finish next month (the education system here is a bit different so we don't have to finish all our exams at the end of the second semester). i woke up today feeling like doing absolutely nothing and feeling bad overall. your video actually gave me motivation to start all over again and to try to incorporate these small habits first just to feel better. thank you, i really love seeing that you uploaded something new. keep up with the good work!! sending hugs
This is the first video I have found by you and I’m obsessed! It came up on my recommended and I got so interested. I’m watching all your content now and I can’t leave this video without subscribing. 😊❤️
Omg this is my first video I’ve watched of you ! 🥹🫶🏽 and I love love love ur aesthetic. Ur voice is so calming and relaxing to listen to. And ur very much giving me motivation to take self care more seriously. ❤️
i absolutely looved this video sm!! i have been doing all of this stuff for more than 3 months now and tbh I'm so much happier and idk I just feel better, so if you want to try this, this is your sign!
I'm so happy about the way you described sleeping. Considering other people's lives, different lifestyles, situations... It was soo heartwarming to see someone being open, empathetic, considerate of others.
Thankyou so much for this! I have been trying so hard to get my life on track , and your video has definitely made an impact❤️
Idk why but this was really satisfying to watch, and hopefully I will also be able to incorporate and consistently keep up with these habits :) thank you for this beautiful shot of your week.
I loved the longer style video! every single second was amazing and the editing was top notch !!!
I love your perspective on things! I’m a person who usually only gets 4-6 hours sleep every night. I’m a wife, mother of three, have a part-time job, a full-time student, and try to fit in self-care and chores in where I can. I have been noticing lately my (unnecessary) need to compete with other people when they talk about how tired they are. I’ve been noticing this in myself and will need to tell myself that it’s not a competition for being tired or how little sleep someone can get to still be productive. I can still get a decent amount of sleep if I’m intentional about how I spend my time ❤ thank you for acknowledging that it is a real phenomenon that people sometimes experience.
I love your channel it really realistic and calming aesthetic motivate me to put my mental health first ☺️
i LOVE your attitude. thanks so much 💗💗
i love listeninf to yout voice, it's so comforting !!
This was honestly so calming and comforting to watch and made me overall very happy :)
I love how calming your voice is and how it doesn’t feel like I’m being yelled at or judged for not having a perfect life. I also love how you researched everything before just telling us random information 🩷
thank u, this changed my life totally, ive been doing this almost a month and i feel to much better, im happy 💗😞
i love the fact that you do a solid research! as a psychology student i always appreciate the critic eye to the studies:)) good job!
Rebecca, thankuuuu sooo muchhh this literally gave me the motivation to get out of bed and do something to make my life creative:) thankuu soo much please do more vids like thiss... love uu girlllll💗💌
Thank you so much for the motivation! I tried setting goals and trying habits out and im doing really well!
This video showed up as recommended for me and I immediately saved it to my watch later. About 5 minutes in I subscribed! Im si excited to have found your channel and can’t wait to binge watch all your videos! 😊
This was super interesting! I will definitely be watching your videos from now on! I’ve been trying to fix my bad habits and this was very motivational. Also love that you added the facts and studies in there and explaining if it is fact or false!
Thank you for making this! I appreciated hearing your POV, and definitely feel more motivated.
You are so amazing and helped me to feel like doing more and helping my body feel better and now I am living a life where I actually want to live and I have shared your vid to some of my friends that are having trouble because I love them and want them to feel as good as I do ❤
