So Let's

go.

Let's go.

there may not be much in bloom right now from a foliage perspective

but I can always count on the birds look at them all i know parakeets are like technically a pest

but i love them they're so cute wait let me get my phone

good morning

i've been working on my winter morning routine for honestly years

and years at this point

and i feel like it just keeps getting better every year i have very intentionally curated this routine specifically for

when your external environment makes jumping out of bed seating the day having a super perky morning

when life is making doing that just feel extra hard mornings at the moment are cold

and dark and it's the time of year

that i really start to feel the most anxious

and weirdly I feel like I've only truly pinpointed

that it's exactly now

when my anxiety spikes probably the most in the entire year

like this year I've only really realized it now last week

I was like oh it's happening again even though literally two weeks ago I was feeling

so good I think I just really believe

that the last two weeks of Jan are sent straight from the seventh circle of hell

and I find

that the best way to fight is honestly just to cut

off those down blue anxiety feelings right at the knees first thing in the morning

so you don't carry any of that energy any of those vibes with you throughout the rest of your day.

So I'm going to show you the morning routine

that is going to get me through the next couple of

weeks it's going to get me through the rest of midwinter and help make sure that my days are good.

So step one you've kind of already seen I wake up open the curtains

and even in the depths of winter even if it's raining I open the windows and breathe in the fresh air.

I wish I was lucky enough to either wake up at

nine o 'clock once the sun is already fully up

or I guess live in the southern hemisphere where January is delightful

but for those of us

that are in the northern hemisphere even though it's dark outside

I promise you just having your first properly deep breath of

the day be fresh air from outside in a way it

being cold makes it honestly somehow I'm romanticizing it I know

but that's what you got to do makes it somehow even nicer

so I get up open my curtains open the windows and I take three deep breaths of fresh air.

I then quickly close the window because otherwise I'd freeze the whole house.

Then once I've done my tongue scrape, brush my teeth, splash my face with water, then start step two.

I set a mental timer for 30 minutes and this is 30 minutes that is just for you.

I like to think that no matter how busy my morning is, this 30 minutes, like I can always do this 30 minutes even

if some of the rest of the morning routine might get

sacrificed during this 30 minutes we have no phone no scroll

no phone whatsoever make a tea i like wake up the rest of the house by opening the curtains

and the blinds and everything everywhere else in the house i light a couple of candles

because we are romanticizing the darkness

and i sit down with my book this realistically once you've

done kind of all the rest of the pottering becomes like

a 15 minute stint you're not much of a reader it

doesn't have to be sitting down with a book any hobby

or any activity

that gets you kind of in the zone of whatever the hobby is just to really delay

or slow down your brain from like diving into the rest of the day

and getting really carried away with your to -do lists

and your worries so if you're not much of a reader

that could be 15 minutes of scrapbooking 15 minutes of a puzzle 15 minutes of crocheting

or knitting i am such a strong advocate of like the

good old -fashioned hobby i brought hobbies back in 2025

but i'm bringing them back for me again in 2026 even

stronger 15 minutes however much of the 30 minutes you can have to sit down

and do something just calm and slow with your tea

and a candle i promise gets your brain in just like

such a nice place oh i should have also said actually

if you're a journaler this is also the perfect time to journal okay

and then on to step three we finally need to get out of our pjs

so next on the list is getting outside for some movement

and just honestly getting outside in general i am doing like a new workout plan thing

which i'm actually really enjoying and i know everybody always says

that the trick to staying consistent with like fitness and working out

and stuff is finding something that you actually enjoy i mean i honestly thought

that i was just one of those people that i was like yeah

but i don't enjoy any of it so

that just maybe it'll just never be me but this new routine

that i'm doing i'm really kind of vibing with i'm running twice a week

and then amongst

that i'm doing some strength training to basically let's support my

runs i'm doing like a couch to 5k thing i've done couch to 5k a couple of times now

but i think i said this in another video

but basically i've just learned

that as soon as you start running you basically have to start again again i'm doing couch 5k again

but i'm actually doing it on runner this time

and i'm really enjoying it so i'm gonna go do my run i'm

so glad the sun has come out oh before i go actually i need to put some deodorant on

and how cute is my new deodorant case honestly you know you're doing your life right

when even your deodorant case gives you like a little boost

of like dopamine serotonin first thing in the morning hot for

valentine's day i love it i am working with wild on this part of the video you guys know

if you've been around here before i've been working with wild for years it's the only deodorant

that i use it was one of the first swaps

that i made

when i really wanted to start becoming more sustainable the amount

of single use plastic waste in your bathroom products is kind of crazy

when you think about it and wild's main mission is to try

and reduce that so we are throwing away less all of wild's products are refillable

and compostable so you know you're doing your bit

when you use wild deodorant the scents are also always

100

so nice like you smell so good

101

when you got this stuff on this new one this new

102

limited edition valentine's collection is called peachy kisses i am such

103

a sucker for peach in every single one of its forms

104

anything is ever peach flavored i'll show you how easy it is to swap out your little compostable refills

105

because honestly it's the simplest thing.

106

You wind it all the way down to the bottom, pop the base out, pop your insert on top and then stick it back in and wind it up.

107

This has honestly come at a perfect time for me because I just finished my old scent. So nice.

108

I think

109

if we're all being honest one of the main things we

110

worry about with natural deodorant is like wild has no nasties in it whatsoever.

111

It has no aluminium, no sulfates, no parabens.

112

One of the main things that you worry about

113

or maybe it's the main thing you worry about is whether it actually works

114

because we don't want to smell like we use deodorant so

115

that we don't have to smell and

116

if you're a sweaty gal like i'm quite a sweaty person it really matters

117

that the deodorant actually works when it comes to wild i obviously can personally endorse it

118

but it's also been scientifically proven to give you 24 hours protection

119

so you know

120

that it works also just in case you didn't know they also have other refillable products

121

that aren't deodorant

122

and i have to say in this house we are madly

123

obsessed with the world body wash i don't know what it

124

is there is something about I guess to be fair it's also in the wild deodorant formula

125

but there is something in both the deodorant formula

126

and the body wash formula that is so hydrating it makes my skin feel

127

so soft exactly the same as the deodorant packaging

128

that the refills come in is compostable you literally just pop it in like

129

that stick in the pump twist it round there you go

130

and I'm sorry but how cute is

131

that in the shelf of your shower during February I love it anyway

132

if you'd like to give wild a try you can use my code ellen2026

133

which will get you 20 off you can also scan the

134

qr code on the screen i'll pop a link in the description box

135

and as always thank you

136

so much to wild for working with me on this part of the video i love supporting brands

137

that i just use naturally every single day okay got my

138

deodorant on i'm prepped for my run this is like the pre -run fear the the pre -run scaries

139

but i know how good it makes me feel

140

when i do it

141

so let's get outside let's get some fresh air let's see

142

what nature's got to say for itself i think sun was out for the span of those three minutes

143

when i was getting dressed

144

because i fear it may be gone again already already excited for my coffee

145

and my breakfast which comes on the other side of it let's go

146

We'll be right back.

147

Thank you.

148

okay time for breakfast I am a three meals a day

149

kind of a person I'm a foodie kind of a person

150

so i want all of my meals to be delicious i mean

151

that probably sounds obvious but i know there are some people

152

that are just honestly not that fast me though i really every meal to be great

153

and i need to start my day with something

154

that tastes great especially during these miserable months like food brings me

155

so much joy so really it's not the time to be overly restricting yourself

156

and eating miserable food like no no no no however i am prioritizing i should shop this.

157

I am prioritizing nourishing my body at this time of year.

158

I feel like this is when our body needs like all the goodness

159

and any foods that risk making us feel like more sluggish

160

and more slow and just like adding to that kind of slumpy feeling is like not good.

161

So I am prioritizing on giving my body all the nutrition it needs

162

and kind of just as part of

163

that having really high protein meals like my meals are all now protein

164

and fiber first because those are things that are gonna keep me feeling energized.

165

They're gonna sustain me for a long period of time to lunch

166

so on the days i'm in a rush i've got my overnight oats

167

which i am trying to meal prep every single sunday you

168

can't necessarily meal prep them for the week i kind of eat mine within three days

169

but for example right now when i'm like deep in my luteal phase

170

and i'm just i'm just

171

so hungry i'll probably eat my overnight oats as like either a snack a little bit later

172

or as my lunch when i'm feeling lazy whatever because i do have the time today we're gonna have eggs.

173

I'm loving this combo that I'm doing at the moment.

174

It's eggs and cottage cheese and there's fruit and oh it's just so good so let's make some breakfast.

175

Let's go.

176

Yum, that was so good now finally if you are somebody

177

that is prone to feeling anxious or jittery

178

or just you know the whole theme of this entire video

179

if you cannot tell you I've actually been pretty good at it

180

and I've been good at it because it's easy to be good at it now

181

that I've noticed how much of a difference it makes

182

but I now only have my coffee after I've had my food

183

so once I've had my high protein breakfast okay it turns

184

out I can't do this with my hand once I've had

185

my high protein breakfast then i can have my coffee

186

and it's made the biggest difference i know none of the stuff is rocket science But this is me just personally endorsing.

187

All of these small things add up so much.

188

It also just makes so much sense to like finally make my coffee

189

when I'm going to sit down and start getting organized.

190

And like that's when I need the next burst of energy because I'm starting to feel myself like, oh, I'm more like comfy.

191

I've had my warm shower.

192

I've had some breakfast.

193

I'm feeling like cozy, you know, but now's the time to pick it up.

194

It's time for a coffee.

195

Yum.

196

I fast a sip of coffee.

197

okay

198

so now I am officially sitting down to start my day

199

this is definitely the time in the morning for me where like my stress can spike a little bit especially

200

if I just had like a really lovely like gentle peaceful morning

201

and then all of a sudden I open my emails I look at my to -do list

202

and all of a sudden all of

203

that like rush rush rush you're not productive unless you're stressed

204

out of your mind kind of energy starts to get to me

205

but my setup i've got my coffee i've got my laptop

206

i've got my three notebooks i actually don't really need all

207

three of them to get through my day i pretty much only need the black one

208

which has my to -do list in it

209

but i've got my notebook i've got my notion

210

which is like the digital organizer that just controls my whole life

211

and the first thing that i do is

212

if i've done my evening routine right

213

if i did yesterday correctly then I already have a to -do list of the most important things

214

that maybe I didn't get done yesterday or kind of new things

215

that cropped up towards the end of the day

216

that I knew I wanted to get done today I should have

217

which today I do thank you yesterday Ellen I have a list of three things

218

that yesterday I decided was going to be really important for me to get done today

219

so I can review my short to -do list have a look at my calendar

220

and then I will start reviewing my emails before I open my emails

221

and before I have like all the notifications hit me I really am trying to remind myself during winter

222

but like that being in a rush is not a sign of productivity

223

and i can be ambitious without being anxious i can want things without

224

that having to create stress in my body

225

and the whole year does not take place in january however

226

much you get done in a day in january is not

227

how much you'll get done in a day in may

228

or in any other week of the entire year it's just

229

today i'm really trying to take my signals from nature slow down not rush not rush not rush like

230

that is what i want to do this year i don't want to be considered like a rushy busy person

231

and i think you can still to be honest get just

232

as much done you can probably get done more done

233

if you don't have that like rush rush rush energy

234

so i'm trying to start my day really gentle i've been loving listening to classic fm for anyone

235

that saw the vlog where we went to the pig back in kind of november time

236

and they constantly have classic fm playing like

237

when you go into your room it was so nice

238

so i have been having that on whilst i start my work

239

if i want something a little bit more um like

240

if you want to feel like as somebody

241

that kind of like works alone at home not to feel like you have co -workers

242

but if you want that feeling of like being with people around obviously on the radio

243

that people are talking to you then i'll put on the zone focus i'll pop a link to the playlist

244

that i listen to it's called something like lo -fi beats to study

245

and relax to sometimes i find classical music like almost a bit too fun

246

which might sound ridiculous lo -fi beats i think it's called it's just like soft music

247

that really helps me get in the zone and get focused

248

but in a way

249

that is like calming they're like sooth it's like soothing music

250

i put my music on i go to my notion calendar

251

and then i will get the three things

252

that i wrote out yesterday for me to today scheduled

253

and planned into my calendar so i know exactly

254

when i'm doing them and making sure

255

that like my time blocks are accurate for

256

when those things are actually going to happen

257

and then i get going honestly i cannot recommend enough using

258

the winter as an opportunity to revisit your routine the way

259

you start your day is the way you'll probably spend the rest of your day

260

and i think just knowing that you're investing in yourself

261

and you're like putting things in place to take care of yourself I think

262

that boosts your confidence it boosts your sense of accomplishment

263

and I don't know just like boosts your self -worth like it's a lovely feeling to be looked after

264

and when you're looking after yourself that's kind of like the nicest feeling of all

265

and yeah for me intense productivity is out in 2026

266

and gentle productivity is in there's still loads of things I want I still want to be achieving my goals

267

but in this darkness, in this cold, in this wet.

268

We just have to revisit

269

and get a little bit more creative about how we make the most of our days

270

because a lot of our days is spent in the dark

271

and for me that means taking things slow and being gentle

272

and discovering new hobbies and listening to classical music

273

and nourishing my body

274

and we'll all emerge in spring like all the better for it i'm 100 sure anyway

275

that is it from me thank you

276

so much for watching i hope you've enjoyed spending the morning with me let me know

277

if you want to see the evening routine version of this

278

otherwise i'll see you next week for another vlog thank you

279

so much for watching as always have such a lovely week and I can't wait to see you in the next one.

280

Por que esse vídeo é ótimo para praticar o inglês?

O vídeo sobre rotina matinal no inverno é um material excelente para quem quer melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e a fluência. A fala da narradora é natural, com ritmo conversacional e expressões coloquiais, como "girlie" ou "sent straight from the seventh circle of hell", que refletem a linguagem cotidiana. Além disso, ela compartilha sentimentos e detalhes do cotidiano, o que torna o conteúdo fácil de se conectar e imitar — essencial para a prática de shadowing em inglês.

Analisando frases naturais

"I know parakeets are like technically a pest but I love them": A estrutura "like technically" é uma marca da fala informal, usada para suavizar uma afirmação. Essa flexibilidade na gramática (em vez de "technically, parakeets are...") torna a frase mais humana e fácil de reproduzir.
"I feel like it just keeps getting better every year": "I feel like" é uma expressão amplamente usada para compartilhar opiniões sem ser dogmática. Ela ajuda a manter a conversa leve, o que é crucial para a prática de conversação em inglês.
"even though literally two weeks ago I was feeling so good": "Literally" aqui enfatiza a realidade da situação, uma tendência comum na fala moderna. Sua utilização natural mostra como palavras "extras" podem dar mais emoção à fala.

Rotina de prática com shadowing

Para treinar usando esse vídeo, siga um loop simples: 1) Assista um trecho de 10-15 segundos e preste atenção à entonação e ao ritmo. 2) Repita imediatamente após a narradora, tentando copiar cada som e pausa — isso é o shadowing. 3) Grave sua voz e compare com o original: note se você acentuou as mesmas sílabas e usou a mesma velocidade. 4) Repita o trecho até que a fala fique mais natural. Use um shadowing site para ajudar na gravação e comparação, ou simplesmente um aplicativo de voz no celular. Essa prática diária, mesmo por 10 minutos, vai melhorar sua pronúncia e confiança na fala.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
