It's actually nice to see you relaxed and chatty, less staged and in professional RU-vidr mode . Altho I am really interested in those 'professional' type ones where you go into the research too, so am looking forward to the ones you've got coming up, but only when you're in the mood and the right frame of mind. They'll turn out better for it. No point forcing it. Life's pressured enough! Maybe time of year doesn't help? 22nd shortest day. I've been wanting to look into whether lack of vitamin D affects mental health. Also vegas nerve stimulation for depression etc. Takes alot of research tho, I'm feeling really low on energy, struggling, also thinking insulin-resistance may affect it (pre-diabetes type thing). I've gone off track, but I really wanted to say that what you said about routine really resonates with me! I really struggle with it, even tho I know it's meant to be good for me and have often wondered if I self sabotage cos I don't feel worthy of an organised life of healthy routines. I kind of find them boring, I'm always looking for excitement/interesting things, but end up with stress! So I also need to research dopamine, as I think that's what that's about, craving dopamine reward chemical. Sorry I've gone on again!
I also wanted to say this video shows the work and thought you put into your videos. The balance between the volume of your voice and the background music is 👌 (not all RU-vidrs manage this.) Plus your backing, ambient music is really nice and soothing. (Is it also on your Spotify? If so what's its title?) I noticed it on your other videos too, but am always too busy saying too much other stuff! 😁
Yeah I always try to make sure the BG music isn't too loud, that can be so annoying when watching videos and you're struggling to hear what they say. Also makes it way more difficult if anyone has issues with their hearing. The tracks I've been using as BG music aren't on my Spotify, but I am thinking of putting them on bandcamp.
@@simblethings have you heard of the app "Insight Timer" I wonder if you could also sell your more ambient meditative tracks on there. I don't know how it works, but I've seen artists can be paid donations for their work on there. I guess you'll let us know in your description once your stuff is available on Bandcamp? I need to hurry up and get a job so I can afford all this music stuff! 😊
@@simblethings Cool! I only mentioned "Insight Timer" as I noticed another RU-vidr I follow on there, but I think her content was behind a pay wall so I presume they also get paid somehow. Might help you pay the rent 😊
