YOUR SIGN TO SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE (and achieve your goals) 

Hey guys! Thank you so much for watching my video on how to simplify your life. It is so fun being on this yt journey with you, thank you so much for your support! If you’re enjoying this video, I would love you to give it a like and leave a comment below - it helps to support me so much. For more videos like this one, please do subscribe so we can share our weekly dose of self care and productivity with more people! See you all again on Sunday! Loads of love, Ellen 💌

Have recently found your channel and love it! Such positive, feel good videos. I can totally relate to the change of mindset and how as you get older, you realise you are in control of your life and destiny ❤️

I love the idea that you don't have to stick to your New Year's resolutions. I was struggling with feeling like a failure at the end of January because I didn't come close to accomplishing any goal I set for the start of the year. At the beginning of February, I switched to "feel" goals for the month to give me permission to change or adjust if I don't feel like it's working and I feel so much better. Simplification and flexibility are now at the top of my priority list!

What a fabulous way to start my Sunday ❤❤ Thank you for the inspiration beautiful xxxx

Thanks for the inspiration. I'm heading out to the garden now 😊

Hi Ellen, and thanks for this video! I love how the message and timing of it are absolutely perfect, everything you mentioned truly resonates with me. I felt like I was on track to meet my goals until earlier this week when I sort of got confirmation that my craft/mastery wasn’t quite there yet on a project (which I knew I was not ready to show for and that’s okay), and so it got delayed to almost two months later, and another project fell behind because courses that I booked to advance on it got cancelled, and although it’s quite frustrating to have to adjust your deadlines, I’ve been managing with the idea of enjoying the journey and it’s alright if all my (high) expectations can’t be met just yet, I’ll just move the deadline and give myself more time and I’ll get there when I get there. I still feel truly very grateful for what I have and your videos do help with the motivation part. It feels like talking with a friend who has the same mindset, with her own goals, and we can support each other. So here’s my way of supporting you: a like and a comment. Love from France :)

Love your videos! I had a long day today, and I had a cup of tea while watching your videos, and as always your videos made me feel better and inspired, thanks Ellen!

Thanks for sharing about goals. I reviewed Jan and realised I was being over excited about exercise (seeing I didn’t do anything last year!) so I’ve changed it down to running 3 times a week. Also we have a dog so when the weather is decent I’ll take her out at lunch. Agree that going to the office is tiring (thought it was just me!) so only go in if I have to. Re: motivation - I have a weekday routine which I stick to and I find doing that helps me mentally. But if im sick etc then I allow myself to rest ❤

I really love your vlogs! You´re so genuine! :)

Hi 😊, I found your channel a few weeks ago and have been really enjoying “hanging out with you.” I’ve already tried a few of your recipes as well as a workout recommendation so, thank you! Hope you have a great week!

Hi Ellen, such a lovely vlog! Thank you for the inspiration most needed ❤

The cake looks soo good 😍

New subscriber after getting recommended a few of your older videos hehe. I love the way you say *we* as to include your viewers 🌷 After watching some previous videos, I feel like I get to learn alot from you and you're such a lovely and very british girlie xx

Ellen, you’re inspiring! The weather here in Seattle is dreary too, so I am just going to get out and embrace it ☔️

Hi Ellen! I have recently found your channel and I truly love it! As someone who works remotely, your insights have been incredibly valuable, and your calm and friendly approach feels like chatting with a friend. Your vlogs inspired me to start going to the office once a week, and it's made a positive impact on my routine. Thank you for sharing your experiences - keep up the fantastic work!♥

Another great vlog! You’ve really made a difference to my life - inspiring me to practise self-love and enjoy the present more, while also striving towards being the best version of myself I can be. Thank you! ❤

Yeeees - was telling myself I needed some good content to kick off my day and there you are!

Such a lovely uplifting vlog thank you xxx

What an amazing content to kick off my day ❤

Hi Ellen! I’ve recently come across your channel and subscribed immediately after watching some of the videos. Your vision of life appeals to me and I really enjoy the atmosphere of your vlogs ❤️

Hi Ellen, lovely vlog and totally agree re adapting goals and especially seasonally. I’ve over the past few days changed a couple of goals, as there is nothing worse than doing goals you feel aren’t currently right for you, or are not working. Also we grow all the time and sometimes what we want to focus on changes. Beautiful cake! Have a wonderful week ❤

Hi! I'm happy to see you again in your home. Thanks for video!

ELLEN! you are a fantastic gardener in the making 👩🏽‍🌾 love your positivity, great thing about gardening if it goes bad you try again next year 😉 the cake looks delicious 🍰

Welcome Back Lovely😊Such an inspiration as always x

Lovely vlog. You need some secateurs for quick and easy pruning, Felco No 8 are brilliant and last for years!

Those plates are fab for garlic. Just cut the root off and rub it across the plate. You can grate chocolate on it too xx

love that blue blouse in the next day clip! gorgeous cut

Hi! Did you get the grater at the market in Franschoek? That,s where I got mine...from JC's market stand. Love your videos 😍

Hey Ellen, lovely vlog, you have been keeping me company while I have been very poorly 🤒 with Covid, really hit me hard this time, 3rd time I have had it! So did it zest the lemon 🍋 or is it going to be a cute spoon rest 😂. Oh are you giving up your cashmere cream for new routine 😢, you seemed to never want to stop using that. I love how you have realised that your life just isn’t able to fit it all in, and for sharing it, not many would, proud of you. Have a super week ❤

Love the gardening content! If you google how to prune individual plants it will tell you the correct time to do it. The majority of plants are pruned in spring/autumn. Pruning too early can leave them at risk of damage and disease due to the weather!

Just love your channel Erin ❤ a doctor told me last week that winter is supposed to be a time of rest, resetting and being slow. January never feels like the best goal setting time to me. Take this season to take a breath ❤ P.s I think you need to handcuff your hands to something to stop the manic hand gestures 😂

Lovely video as always! I tried the Wild deodorant you talked about a few months ago and love it! Thank you for the recommendation ❤

Amazing, motivating video. I like watching your videos. Thank you

🥰❤️ I’ve missed your face! Hope you have a lovely week 🤗

❤❤❤ thnx for sitting next to the river in your garden, I was waiting for that so long , cause it is what I would do if it was my home 😊❤❤❤❤

Hi Ellen, thank you so much for your video and your answers on motivation. But I wonder what you do to he disciplined. I am not disciplined at all. So I get what you are saying. But somehow you do it anyway. But how? What are your tricks? Also I get that you are not feeling like filming when you are low or having a real bad day but can you film a bad day routine or something? How do you get yourself out bed? How are you getting yourself showing up for work. That is so difficult for me. And what do you do when you are at home to make you feel better or just to get trough the day... all tips abd tricks are welcome. I was just very sick again. A nasty tonsillitis. I had so much pain. I am feeling better but it is the first day without pain and i am still very tired. So video's about a sickday routine or selfcare routine are more then welcome to. Wish you the best week. ❤❤❤

Such a lovely video! Your lemon zester I think it actually a garlic grater , that how we use them here in Spain anyways :)

Hi, Helen, How's your day going? I hope your day is going well. Long time no see, It's good to have you back. I'm always happy to see your videos and Your daily life is amazing. Thank you very much for this video, You always have good habits and I'm really happy for you. Thanks for the advice, Take good care of yourself and Have a nice day at work. 🙂👍👏👏👏

I’m a greenpeople, Perricone and erborian lady 😊

I think it's a ginger grater!

Lovely to see u again! Greetings from Poland:) Have a nice day - B.

Hi Ellen, Love your vlog!! If you're keen to start gardening may i suggest some gardening books(e.g Dr D.G Hessayon guide to gardening or Monty Doms gardening) also when it comes to achieving your fitness goals that you mentioned just do it when you can fit it in

Your lemon drizzle came out sensatiionally! Could you share the receipe?

Awesome dear friend 😅🎉🎉😂❤❤

Saudações do Brasil, amo seus vídeos 🎉❤

Noooooooo, too soon to touch the hydrangea, the old growth protects the new from the frost, only chop it after the last frost 😢 xx

You have a nice lamps

I have skin and me but haven’t used it yet. I think you have scared me off by talking about active ingredients and the different way you use it, why do you treat this product differently from any other face cream? Just so I know!

🧡💚💙💛

Hellooo, how are you??? Xxx

Have you considered that you are masking yourself at times and you are trying to be what society tells you to be? I really think there is actual value in you discussing and displaying the times where life is meh. I find your videos great but I also feel as someone who is neurodivergent will never be where you are. So seeing the other side of you for me would be something very interesting

Woooooooo stop cutting that hydrangea back it’s too early!
