Hey everyone!

Welcome to the Masu & Fizu Show.

Here we learn English, practice together, and have fun along the way.

So grab your headphones… And let's start learning!

Hey everyone!

Welcome back to the Masu & Fizu Show.

You know, I was thinking about today's topic all week, and honestly, it might be one of the most important things we've ever talked about.

Today, we're talking about learning to love yourself.

Fizu, be honest with me.

When was the last time you said something kind to yourself?

Hmm.

Honestly, Masu, I don't think I remember.

I'm usually saying things like, why did you do that, Fizu?

That was so silly.

I'm always a little harsh with myself.

See, that's so common.

And I think so many people watching right now are nodding their heads.

We're often our own biggest critic.

So today, we're going to practice English while exploring this really powerful topic.

How to speak kindly to yourself, how to set boundaries, and how to actually believe that you deserve love and respect, starting with yourself.

I'm actually really excited about this one.

It feels different, more personal.

It is personal, and that's what makes it so good for speaking practice.

Because when you care about a topic, the English just flows more naturally.

Before we start, if this sounds like something you need today, do us a favor.

Hit that like button and subscribe to The Masu & Fizu Show.

We put a lot of heart into these episodes, and it really helps us keep making more for you.

Okay, Fizu, are you ready to dive into this one?

Ready.

Let's go, Masu.

So let's start simple.

Fizu, what do you think it actually means to love yourself?

A lot of people hear that phrase, but they're not sure what it really looks like in daily life.

I think it means you must to always feel happy with yourself.

That's a good try, but actually loving yourself doesn't mean you always feel happy.

Instead of you must to always feel happy, we'd say you don't have to always feel happy, but you treat yourself with kindness.

Can you try saying that?

You don't have to always feel happy, but you treat yourself with kindness.

Yes, exactly right.

Right.

See, loving yourself is more about how you treat yourself, especially during hard moments.

It's like, imagine your best friend made a mistake.

You wouldn't yell at them, right?

You'd probably say something supportive.

Right.

I would never be mean to my friend like that.

Exactly.

But here's the interesting part.

We often talk to ourselves much worse than we'd ever talk to a friend.

That's actually really common, you know?

I used to do this too too.

A few years ago, I made a small mistake during a presentation at work, and in my head I kept repeating,

you're so stupid, you always mess things up.

It took me a while to realize how unfair that was to myself.

Wow.

Really?

Even you, Muscle?

Oh, absolutely.

Everyone does this sometimes.

But the goal is to notice it and change the way we talk to ourselves.

So, Fizu, let me ask you this.

What's something you often say to yourself when you make a mistake?

I usually say, I'm so bad on this.

But, wait, that's wrong, right?

Good catch.

Yes, we'd say, I'm so bad at this, not bad on this.

Bad at something, like bad at cooking or bad at speaking English.

Try the full sentence again.

I'm so bad at this.

Perfect.

Now, here's a kinder way to say it.

Instead of, I'm so bad at this, try saying, I'm still learning this.

Isn't that already a nicer feeling?

Oh, I like that much better.

I'm still learning this.

Yeah, that actually feels encouraging.

Exactly.

That's self -compassion in action.

And we're already practicing great English while doing it.

Okay, let's go a little deeper now.

One big part of loving yourself is learning to say no sometimes, setting what we call boundaries.

Fizu, do you know what a boundary is?

Um, like a line, like a border between two countries?

That's actually a great guess, and you're not wrong.

In relationships, a boundary is like a personal line, too.

It's a limit you set to protect your time, energy, or feelings.

For example, saying, I can't help you this weekend because I need rest, that's a boundary.

Oh, I see.

So if my friend always calls me late at night and I say, please don't call after 10, that's also a boundary.

Exactly right.

That's a perfect example.

And here's the thing.

A lot of people feel guilty setting boundaries like they're being mean.

But actually, boundaries are a form of self -love because you're protecting yourself.

That makes sense.

But it's hard, you know?

I always worry people will think I don't care about them.

That's such a common feeling, Fizu, and I totally understand it.

But here's something I always remind my students.

100

Saying no to something doesn't mean you don't care, it means you're also caring for yourself.

101

Let's practice saying no in a kind way.

102

Can you try saying, I'm sorry I can't help this time, but thank you for thinking of me?

103

I'm sorry I can't help this time, but thank you for think of me. So close.

104

Just a small fix.

105

It's thank you for thinking of me, with ing at the end because it comes after for.

106

Try once more.

107

Thank you for thinking of me.

108

Yes, perfect.

109

See, that sentence is so polite, but it still protects your own time.

110

That's the balance we want.

111

I actually really like this phrase.

112

I think I'll use it this week.

113

I love that.

114

And here's another important phrase for loving yourself.

115

I deserve.

116

For example, I deserve rest, or I deserve kindness.

117

Fizu, can you finish this sentence?

118

I deserve...

119

I deserve.. a chocolate cake.

120

Well, that works too.

121

But let's also try something a little deeper, like I deserve to make mistakes without being too hard on myself.

122

Oh, that's a good one.

123

I deserve to make mistakes without being too hard on myself.

124

Beautifully said.

125

And honestly, that sentence alone could change someone's whole week if they really believed it.

126

All right, Vizu, now it's time for our favorite part, real -life roleplay.

127

Today, since our topic is loving yourself, we're going to practice two situations where this really matters,

128

setting a boundary with a friend and comforting a friend who's being too hard on themselves.

129

Ready?

130

Ready.

131

Let's do it.

132

Here's the scene.

133

It's Saturday morning, and you finally have a free day to relax after a busy week.

134

Suddenly, your friend calls and asks you to help them move apartments all day.

135

You really want to rest, but you also don't want to hurt their feelings.

136

Let's practice this phone call.

137

I'll be your friend.

138

Alex, ready?

139

Okay, I'm ready.

140

Right.

141

So let's get right into it because we have a lot to unpack today.

142

Hey, Fizu.

143

So, listen, I'm moving apartments today, and I could really use some help.

144

Are you free?

145

Oh, hi, Alex.

146

Um, actually, today I plan to rest a little.

147

Good start, but let's make it smoother.

148

Instead of, today I plan to rest a little, try, actually, I was really planning to rest today.

149

Actually, I was really planning to rest today.

150

Perfect.

151

Oh, okay, no worries.

152

I just thought I'd ask.

153

It's a lot of boxes.

154

I understand.

155

And I really want to helping you, but I need this day for myself.

156

Almost there.

157

It's I really want to help you without ing because it comes after want to.

158

Try again.

159

I really want to help you, but I need this day for myself.

160

Excellent.

161

That's such a kind and honest way to say no. No, I totally get it.

162

Rest is important too.

163

Thank you for understanding.

164

Maybe I can help you next weekend instead.

165

So close again.

166

Thank you for understanding.

167

Remember the ing rule.

168

Try it.

169

Thank you for understanding.

170

Maybe I can help you next weekend instead.

171

That's wonderful.

172

You just offered a solution, too, which shows you really do care.

173

That sounds perfect, actually.

174

Next weekend works great.

175

Great.

176

I deserve a little rest today, but I still want to support you.

177

Yes, beautifully said.

178

That sentence shows both boundaries and care, exactly what self -love looks like in real life.

179

Thanks, Fizu.

180

Enjoy your rest day.

181

Thank you, Alex.

182

Talk to you soon.

183

And that's a wrap on Situation 1.

184

Fizu, how did that feel?

185

Honestly, it felt really good.

186

I didn't feel guilty at all by the end.

187

That's exactly the goal.

188

Let's highlight a few key phrases from that conversation.

189

I was really planning to.

190

A gentle way to explain your own plans.

191

I really want to help you, but shows care while setting a limit.

192

Thank you for understanding.

193

Polite and warm closing.

194

I deserve.

195

Powerful self -love phrase.

196

Maybe I can help you next time instead.

197

Offers a kind alternative.

198

Great job, Visu.

199

Now let's try something different but still connected to loving ourselves.

200

Sometimes loving yourself also means helping a friend love themselves too.

201

Here's the scene.

202

You're sitting in a cozy coffee shop with your friend Mia.

203

She just failed a test and being really hard on herself.

204

Let's see how you respond.

205

I'll be Mia.

206

Okay, I'm ready to help my friend.

207

I can't believe I failed that test.

208

I'm so stupid, honestly.

209

Mia, don't say that.

210

You're not stupid.

211

You just made a mistake.

212

Nice try.

213

We'd say you just made a mistake with a before mistake.

214

Try again.

215

You're not stupid.

216

You just made a mistake.

217

Perfect.

218

Keep going.

219

You're doing great.

220

I guess, but I studied so hard and still failed.

221

I know it's frustrated, but failing doesn't mean you are not smart.

222

Close.

223

The word should be frustrating, not frustrated, because the situation causes the feeling.

224

Try once more.

225

I know it's frustrating, but failing doesn't mean you are not smart.

226

Excellent correction.

227

That's such an important difference.

228

Thanks, Vizu.

229

I guess I'm just really hard on myself sometimes.

230

Everyone is sometimes.

231

But you deserve to be kind to yourself, too.

232

Almost.

233

It's you deserve to be kind to yourself with to after deserve.

234

Try it.

235

You deserve to be kind to yourself too.

236

Beautiful.

237

That's such a comforting sentence.

238

You know, that actually makes me feel a little better.

239

I'm happy to hear that.

240

Maybe next time you can talk to yourself like you talk to me.

241

Wow, Fizu.

242

That line was perfect.

243

No corrections needed.

244

That's such a thoughtful thing to say.

245

That's actually really good advice.

246

Thank you. Of course.

247

We all deserve kindness, even from ourselves. And scene.

248

Fizu, that was incredible.

249

You really grew from situation one to situation two.

250

Your sentences got smoother and more natural.

251

Thank you, Masu.

252

I felt more confident this time.

253

It shows.

254

Let's highlight the key phrases from this situation.

255

You just made a mistake.

256

Gentle correction of harsh self -talk that's frustrating describing a difficult situation kindly

257

you deserve to be kind to yourself powerful supportive phrase talk

258

to yourself like you talk to others a beautiful reminder we all deserve kindness okay Fizu now let's slow down

259

and really practice pronunciation repeat after me nice

260

and clear I deserve kindness I deserve kindness I'm still learning

261

this I'm still learning this thank you for understanding thank you for understanding close

262

it's one smooth word understanding try blending it together understanding perfect let's continue I really want to help

263

but I need rest too I really want to help

264

but I need rest too beautiful last one

265

you deserve to be kind to yourself

266

you deserve to be kind to yourself yes perfect pronunciation Fizu you've really nailed

267

that one okay Fizu

268

now let's go over some important vocabulary from today first word boundary Fizu what do you think

269

it means I think it's like a personal limit yes exactly a boundary is limit

270

you set to protect your time energy

271

or feelings example setting a boundary with work calls after 7 p .m helps me relax

272

that's a great example next word self -compassion any guess hmm

273

maybe being nice to yourself exactly right self -compassion means treating yourself with kindness

274

and understanding especially during hard times example self compassion helped her forgive her own mistakes

275

I really need more self compassion in my life

276

we all do sometimes next over commit what do you think

277

maybe promising too many things spot -on over commit means agreeing to do more than you actually have time

278

or energy for example he over committed to three projects and felt exhausted I

279

definitely do that sometimes next word worthy any idea worthy like deserving something good exactly worthy means deserving respect

280

or good things example you are worthy of love and respect just as you are I love that sentence last one frustrating.

281

Remember our mistake earlier?

282

Yes.

283

It means something that makes you feel annoyed or upset.

284

Perfect.

285

Example, feeling the test was frustrating, but she didn't give up.

286

All right, quiz time.

287

Question one, easy level.

288

What's a simpler, kinder way to say, I'm so bad at this?

289

Um, I will never be good.

290

Good try, but remember our earlier lesson?

291

We We wanted something more encouraging.

292

Think about what we practiced.

293

Oh, I'm still learning this.

294

Yes, perfect.

295

Exactly right.

296

Question two, medium level.

297

If a friend asks you for a favor but you need rest, what polite phrase can you use to say no kindly?

298

Maybe, I can't help you because I'm tired.

299

That's honest, but let's make it warmer like we practiced.

300

Try adding appreciation too.

301

I really want to help you, but I need this day for myself.

302

Yes!

303

Excellent!

304

That's exactly the phrase from our role -play.

305

Question 3, medium -level.

306

What word means a personal limit to protect your time or energy?

307

Is it compassion?

308

Close concept, but that's a different word.

309

Remember, it was related to lines or limits.

310

Oh!

311

Boundary!

312

Yes!

313

Perfect!

314

You got it!

315

Great job on this quiz, Vizu!

316

Now, let's talk about three practical tips to practice loving yourself while improving your English too.

317

Tip one, talk to yourself in English with kind words every single day.

318

Even simple sentences like I'm doing my best can help build both confidence and fluency.

319

That's actually such a nice idea.

320

I'll try saying kind things to myself in English every morning.

321

I love that.

322

Tip two, practice saying no politely in English,

323

even in small situations, like turning down extra work or declining plans when you're tired.

324

That's helpful because saying no is hard for me, but maybe practicing the words first will make it easier.

325

Exactly.

326

Practice makes it feel natural.

327

And tip three, write down three things you did well today in English.

328

This builds both self -love and vocabulary at the same time.

329

I really like this one.

330

It feels productive for both my English and my mindset.

331

That's the beauty of combining language learning with personal growth.

332

It becomes something meaningful, not just memorization.

333

Okay, let's recap today's amazing lesson.

334

We talked about what it really means to love yourself, treating yourself with kindness, setting boundaries, and believing you deserve respect.

335

We practiced two situations, saying no to a friend kindly and comforting someone with gentle, supportive English.

336

Some of our most powerful phrases today were I deserve, thank you for understanding, and you deserve to be kind to yourself.

337

Yeah, today felt really special, Fizu.

338

I learned that saying no doesn't mean I don't care, it just means I'm also caring for myself.

339

I made that mistake with thank you for understand instead of understanding, but now I feel confident saying it correctly.

340

I also loved learning the word boundary.

341

I never really understood it so clearly before.

342

And I'm so proud of how naturally you spoke by the end of the episode.

343

Your confidence really grew from situation one to situation two.

344

I feel it too.

345

I actually feel ready to use these phrases in real life now, especially with my friends.

346

That's exactly what we want to hear.

347

Learning English and learning self -love.

348

What a powerful combination today.

349

Thank you so much for watching the Masu and Fizu show today.

350

Honestly, this topic meant a lot to us, and we hope it meant something to you too.

351

Yeah.

352

Remember, you don't have to be perfect in English or in life.

353

You just have to keep practicing and keep being kind to yourself.

354

Beautifully said, Fizu.

355

So here's what we want you to do.

356

If you haven't subscribed yet, please do.

357

We have so many more episodes like this coming.

358

Rewatch this episode to really absorb those phrases and try using at least one sentence from today in real life this week.

359

And comment below.

360

Tell us, what's one kind thing you'll say to yourself this week?

361

We really do read every comment and we love hearing your stories.

362

We're so glad you spent this time with us today.

363

Keep practicing, keep being kind to yourself, and we'll see you in the next episode.

364

You deserve kindness.

365

Speak English and love yourself.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
