4
this together i'm going to show you everything i do to pull myself out of a funk
5

and spend as much time alone as possible today at work i spent lunch with a co -worker
18
and we went to the mall we got some smoothies

and she made me feel really good we had some great chats
20
and i realized that sometimes it's better not to isolate yourself
21
and then after work i went to see my parents i had dinner with them
22
so if you're someone like me who loves to isolate themselves
23
when they're going through something there are people who care about you, there's people who love you.

55
and it's time to get rid of them This is how
56
much stuff is leaving my closet leaving my space leaving my energy
57
Now
58
that we've gotten rid of the old stuff we can bring
59
in something new Whenever I go through something big like what I just went through I like to mark
60
that fresh start with something physical Just a little reminder
61
that i'm stepping into a new chapter
62
So let me show you the two things
63
that are gonna help me do that beautiful fresh pajama sets
64
and these scream nina they scream feminine rewire very girly very cute i'm gonna try this one on tonight
65
i didn't even notice this pink lace detail i'm obsessed now
66
this is one of my favorite tips i associate perfume with certain times
67
and people in my life
68
so i love the idea of getting a new scent to
69
mark a new fresh start something i can make new memories with
70
and something that doesn't trigger my brain and remind me of the past.
71
I chose something sweet, feminine, bold.
72
This has notes of lavender, bergamot, orange blossom and jasmine, vanilla and amber.
73
Also what we're not gonna do is save this for special occasions.
74
Every day is a chance to do something nice for yourself, pamper yourself, even if you're just staying home.
75
i'm gonna wind down for the night and take some time to journal pray
76
and spend some time with god honestly this situation really brought me back to him
77
and i'm just learning how to trust surrender trust in his plans for me earlier i mentioned buying new pajamas
78
and new perfume and having a physical thing to mark a fresh start
79
and i know those things are nice they give me something to feel excited about
80
but at the end of the day you cannot buy your way out of what you're feeling
81
and what you're going through the physical things cannot fix what's
82
going on inside your heart in your mind these past few
83
days i've honestly spent a lot of time just sitting here journaling reading the bible praying
84
that really helps me ground myself in something bigger than myself
85
and this releases a lot of anxiety overthinking all those heavy thoughts and emotions
86
that i'm feeling i'm gonna set my alarm for 6 30
87
tomorrow i'm gonna get up early get a workout in
88
and start my day on the right note i'm not gonna
89
put big expectations on myself all i want to do is wake up get dressed and show up to the gym.
90
I'll be proud of anything I accomplish in that workout.
91
All I want to do is show up and get back into my routine.
92
And on that note, cheers, good night, and I'll see you in the morning.
93
I don't know breakfast for work.
94
I honestly used to use food as a way to cope with my emotions
95
and that's something that has really changed for me.
96
Food can definitely comfort you in the moment, but it will not help you get through whatever it is you're going through.
97
So even when I'm going through a hard time, I make sure to nourish myself and eat things that are good for my body.
98
I'm going to show you one of those meals that honestly tastes like comfort food to me.
99
It is so good, delicious, and actually good for you.
100
I like to mix it out.
101
I really need some fresh air.
102
I've been inside all day long.
103
So I'm going to take you guys on a nice little walk.
104
The moon is so bright, I love the area I live in because you're right by the water and then you got some really nice buildings,
105
you got the view of downtown Toronto,
106
got a nice walking path amazing cafes and yeah that makes me happy
107
i used to have a really bad habit of doom scrolling
108
and then i turn my phone on downtime
109
so it shuts off at 10 p .m my apps are locked i also mentioned earlier
110
that i used to use food as a coping mechanism
111
when i was going through something i managed to get over
112
that by honestly just focusing on a whole foods diet
113
and not restricting myself the more i ate whole foods
114
and kind of gave myself the freedom to eat whatever i wanted my diet naturally balanced out just feels
115
so much better when i eat that way so
116
that one was kind of like a physical thing i don't drink i don't do drugs I also don't have
117
that many close friends that I could just call up to hang out with
118
or talk on the phone for hours So it's really just me myself and I
119
and i've had to find healthy ways to cope with my
120
emotions I would suggest taking a look at what habits in your life are just some kind of distraction
121
and they're not actually
122
that good for you One of my favorite things to do is to read
123
and especially now i've been finding
124
so much strength in the bible with god through prayer
125
and I genuinely look forward to nighttime and the morning when I get to just sit here.
126
on my couch and spend some time with God.
127
So that's what I'm gonna go do now and then I'm gonna go to sleep.
128
I will see you in the morning.
129
Good night.
130
i'm running late to work but i just made a smoothie for lunch i'm gonna have the salad we made yesterday.
131
This is what I carry in my Louis Vuitton bag.
132
The weekend is here.
133
I'm going to start the weekend off with a full self -care night at home.
134
I'm going to show you all my little tips and tricks.
135
Also this is another little way to get yourself out of a funk.
136
Just go out, take yourself on a solo date.
137
A smoothie, a coffee, a sandwich, whatever it is.
138
Sometimes you just need to get out of your house, change your environment, and be around other people.
139
That being said, I am very hungry so let's go get our sandwich
140
i just took a nice long hot shower i took my makeup off and we're gonna get into our self -care
141
Now this is going to seem like a given and you're going to be like, Nina, why are you even telling me this?
142
Brush your teeth and clean your gums.
143
This is a little extra set for today.
144
I'm using this whitening toothpaste by Crest.
145
I also think electric toothbrushes are so worth it.
146
next i'm going to pluck my eyebrows and trim them a little bit
147
that was just a mini cleanup i do get my eyebrows done professionally
148
some of y 'all have earwax hanging out of your ears clean your ears please
149

150

151
flowing we want to get circulation
152
going moving on to our face we're
153
going to start with some facial massages to help sculpt and de -puff our face.
154
Our last step of the night is a face mask.
155
I do have very dry skin so I'm going to use a hydrating one.
156
I recently started cutting my face masks and it really helps them mold to my face and they just fit more comfortably.
157
I'll just do two cuts here and two cuts there.
158
I'm going to go read while this face mask does its thing.
159
So I will see you in the morning.
160

166
I'm going to spend the day recording some content.
167
I'm also doing a giveaway on Instagram.
168
So make sure to follow me there.
169
I wanted to close out this video by saying if you are in a funk right now or you're going through it, give yourself time give yourself grace it might take you three
170
days it might take you a week it also might take you a month
171
but getting out of a funk is really just coming back to yourself
172
and it's in the little things how you take care of
173
yourself your habits your thoughts surround yourself with people who love you take care of yourself mentally physically spiritually
174
and don't forget to let go of anything

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
