I wanted to do something

今日我想試一些不同的主題

a little bit different and

一些我鍾意聽的話題

something that I

就是人們紓壓的方法

love hearing about

或者關機享受屬於自己的私人時間

and that is ways that people

你們都知我有幾鍾意鼓勵大家去擁有休息時間

like to de-stress

或者私人時間去為自己充電

or just kind of switch off

這就是我拍這個影片的原因 分享我的方法

and have a little bit of me time

我有好多方法去紓壓 我剛剛整個月都特別忙碌

you all know how much i love to encourage people to have downtime

或者我發現生活太過 我相信大家都經歷過

me time, and to re-charge their batteries; which is why i wanted to do a video

而我覺得好多時間

on the ways that i choose to do that

大家都冇俾自己足夠的時間去充電

so different ways to de-stress or i'm just having

我覺得當你壓力特別大的時候

a particularly busy month

學會有咩方法去紓壓 是非常重要

or i just find that life is getting a little bit

還有 你一定要知有咩方法

too much which i'm sure we all

可以令你馬上冷靜 令你個頭腦更清晰

do from time to time

這係我講的充電時間 大家都需要

and i feel like a lot

我將我的紓壓方式 分成三部分

of time, people don't give

第一個是 環境

themselves the quality of recharging that they probably need

我不知道大家有沒有聽句這句說話

I think it's particularly important to learn how to manage ways in which

“房間有條理 身心也如是”

to make yourself feel better if you're feeling particularly stress and also just knowing

我到了有自己的屋之後才相信這句話

those go to things that you know will instantly chill you out

現在如果東西不在它們的位置

make you see a little bit clearer and as I said recharge

我覺得佢會一直用不同的方式影響我

everyone needs to do it

如果我周圍的環境 東西都放得整齊

So I have broken this down into 3 different categories

我覺得所有事都變得更容易

The first one being your environment

我的意思唔係 要你花所有私人時間去整理你間屋

I don't know if any of you ever heard the saying

因為 講真 有很多人反而會因此更大壓力

"tidy room, tidy mind" I never used to believe this until I became a home owner

不過有時我會覺得汁房 可以紓壓

and now if things aren't in a certain place I feel that i clutters up my mind

但要睇心情

in a different way. If things are a lot more organize in my home and in my environment

我要講的是 如果身邊係乾淨整齊的環境

I feel like it eases everything else and although I'm not saying to spend all your free time tidying and sorting your house

會令你覺得人生更有規劃

because let's be honest for a lot of people this would just add to the stress although I do find cleaning and tidying is quite a good stress buster sometimes

唔係要所有東西都一定要去它們所屬的位置

you've got to be in the right mood for it thought

每個角落都要好乾淨 換床單都有一樣的效果

what I'm saying thought is that if things have a little bit more order around you it makes you feel like your life is in a little bit more order

每次我買新床單 我都覺得好開心

it doesn't always need to be that everything is where it should be, that the house is spotless and everything is clean

瞓落換完的新床單到 係其中一種最正的感覺

it can simply be something like new bedding.Whenever I buy new bedding I feel so happy.

即時係每星期洗一次床單 再用熨斗熨平都係個好既選擇

getting into bed with new sheets is one of the best feeling. And even if that sometimes means treating yourself one week

因為依個係我最鍾意的家務

taking all your bedding to a launderer and getting them to wash and iron it just because I mean for me

而且唔會花你很多時間

it's one of my least favorite chores and it doesn't actually cost that much to get it done but having fresh clean sheets

但換新床單真係會有很好好的感覺

is such a lovely feeling and having new bedding I like to change my bedding up quite a lotI currently have some automnal bedding

講到新床單 我鍾意成日換床單

but also I like buying cushion just like cute little home finishes and that makes me feel happy and relax and very content with my living situation

我目前用的是秋天系列的床單

candles, candles are probable one of my most comforting home essentials if I'm having a particularly stressful day or particularly stressful week

我都鍾意買抱枕 像好似有可愛的家居圖案的

there is absolutely no doubt about it that when it starts getting dark there will be candles lit from room to room

這令我覺得開心和放鬆

they just add ambiance calm and cozyness and you can't go wrong with a bit of coziness

對現在的生活很滿足

house plants! this might seems like an obvious one or maybe a not so obvious one and i feel like you don't have to have green

蠟燭

fingers is that what they are called ? green fingers when you are a gardener. Green thumbs ?

蠟燭係最能夠安慰我的家居必需品之一

something.You don't have to have green limbs in order to look after a house plant.You may thing there is no way

如果我今日壓力特別大或者今個星期特別緊張

you can keep a plant alive but there are things succulents and cactuses are a lot more easy to look after and I think it's just nice

唔洗懷疑 當天黑的時候 我一定會點蠟燭

having plants in your house. I know so many people who swear by plants in their living space and it's green

每間房都有

and it's pretty and it's alive and I love having plants in my house. Granted not all of them stay alive but they look really pretty

蠟燭可以營造一個平靜舒適的氣氛

whilst they are there. Another one which sits quite comfortably alongside candles for me is fairy lights. I mean

大家都鍾意舒適的感覺

it doesn't take a genius to work out that fairy lights are one of the things I can't live without in my environnement.I absolutely love them whether it's the middle of the da

植物

whether it's the evening whether it's summer whether it's winter. I love fairy lights.The best thing I can

最常見的方法

do is light a candle, wack fairy lights on and forget that main lights ever existed they just have a nice glow

或者唔係最常見

they're very warming and they are very pretty and I think somewhere underlying all of that is that it reminds me of Christmas and christmas

我覺得你不需要園藝技術

is the best time in the world.I mean that might have something to do with them.

佢地係咪咁講？ 園藝家的園藝技術

The next category is You time and switching off.

園藝拇指 好似

I feel like this is the category that most people probably find quite difficult it's so much harder this days to switch off

你唔需要園藝...手腳

when everything is so easy access threw your phone which is constantly in your hand and especially for me because of everything

去照顧你的植物

I do and everything surrounding social media and email and everything is very digital switching off can be a little bit more tricky

你可能會覺得 植物會被你養死

I think with this the best thing to do is find things your passionate about that don't involve being on your phone

但好似石蓮花，仙人掌

or on a laptop or any other electrical device that has wifi because of my job and YouTube and everything

都係好容易照顧的植物

for a while when ever someone said to me so what do you like to do while your not working or what are your hobbies

而我覺得屋企 入面有植物都係唔錯既選擇

and obviously this is my hobby so for a while i was like oohh what do i like doing

我知道有好多人都有係屋企種植物

thats not making videos, editing videos, designing products and writing books

他們綠意昂然 美麗大方 生機勃勃

like i don't really know, what is my non-work hobby

我鍾意屋企有植物的感覺

so for me if i'm having a particularly stressful day or i'm feeling a little bit anxious and i just need a bit of a me time

雖然唔係每一個都可能養唔死

and I just need to switch off,

但佢地健在的時候真係好靚

these are the things, I will most likely do:

另一樣 放在蠟燭旁邊 都可以安慰我既野

Going for a walk.

就係裝飾既燈仔

I think this is the most important thing

掛依啲燈唔需要有藝術天份

it's gentle exercise and exercises are always good

我的生活不可以沒有這些小燈飾

if you're feeling stressed or anxious

我超鍾意在朝早點亮佢地

it's just such a lovely thing to do

不論是晚上 夏天或冬天

where I live I've got a countryside

我鍾意小燈飾

and I've got the sea, so walking in the beach is one of my favourite things to do

最正的是點蠟燭 開小燈飾

whether it's windy, wet, sunny, cold

忘記燈光管的存在

it doesn't bother me at all,

小燈飾有柔和的光線 令人覺得温暖

I wrap up warm and I go for a little walk,

而且好靚

take Nala with me sometimes.

佢令我諗起聖誕

I think being by the sea

而聖誕係最好的節日 所以

is such a huge destresser.

小燈飾令我聯想起聖誕節

I love the sound of the waves,

第二個部分就是 自我時聞和關機

I love the sound of seagulls,

我覺得這是大多數人比較難做到的事

when I'm not living next to the sea, because

因為有了電話的方便 導致我們較難關機

then the sound of seagulls grates on me and becomes

你無時無刻都攞住部電話

one of the reasons I get stressed.

特別係我

I just honestly think when you're standing on the beach

因為我所做的工作

looking at the sea - nothing else matters.

我被社交媒體,電郵等電子資訊包圍

Like, you just can't be stressed.

關機都我來說就有點困難

you just can't.

我覺得因此情況 你要找你有熱情去做

sometimes when I can't get down to the beach

但與電話和電腦冇關的事

I'll just listen to the sound of the waves on my phone.

或其他有wifi的電子產品

And if you don't have a beach near you, then

因為我的工作 YouTube 或其他事業

find a lovely countryside walk or in fact

有時 有人會問我

walk somewhere you've never walked before.

“Hey 你休息的時候會做咩？你的興趣係咩？”

I think that's quite nice, like discovering new places.

但講真 拍片就係我既興趣

Just generally clearing your head,

所以有段時間 我覺得

there's the reason they say: go clear your head, go for a walk

我到底鍾意做咩

I know we're switching off, and we're technically not using or phone, but

除左拍片 剪片 設計產品 同寫書

some apps don't require wi-fi

我都唔係好知

and they're just really great for meditation,

我的興趣係咩

calming andgenerally just relaxation.

所以對我來說 如果今日特別緊張

I like to lie down on my bed

或都覺得有點焦慮

and listen to the calming apps, or

我就需要私人時間 我要關掉3c產品 係我多數會做的事

sometimes I'll listen to them at night or

去散步

if I'm on a train, or

我覺得係最重要的事

even if I just wanna take five minutes

焦慮的時候去做一些輕鬆的運動好有幫助

out of a very busy day

散步係件好好的事

I put my headphones in and just, kind of

我住的地方有鄉間有海邊

gather my thoughts a little bit

所以去海邊散步係我最鍾意做的事

I find this so helpful

不論係颳風下兩晴天還是寒冷的天氣

And the more you do it,

都完全唔可以阻止我

I feel like, the more impact it has

著件温暖既衫

and I recommend it to everybody I know.

有時帶Nala一齊去散步

A couple of the apps I would recommend are

我覺得在海邊是一件非常紓壓的事

Relax Melodies, which is great to listen to if you

我鍾意海浪聲 我鍾意海鷗的聲

have trouble sleeping or

不過當我不住在海邊時 我先會鍾意海鷗的聲

if you want to listen to the sound of waves

如果唔係佢地的叫聲都係令我壓力大的原因

It's essentially a soundboard of different very calming noises.

我真係覺得當你站在海邊望向海的時候

HeadSpace is brilliant.

會覺得一切都冇事

There is everything on HeadSpace,

就好似你對壓力免疫

It's a great place for meditation

有時我唔可以去海邊的話

and just clearing your mind

我會有電話放海浪聲

especially if you have quite a busy day

如果你周圍冇海邊可以去的話

and you wanna pack in like 5 minutes here and 10 mins there

就去鄉間行下

and the other one I have is just called "Relax"

或都去你從來去未過的地方散步

and this is a 28 to 30 minute

我覺得探索新的環境都係件好事

chat, which when I'm feeling particulary uptight

就好似人地講咁 比個腦清醒下

nervous, stressed I'll listen to this same half-an-hour

呼吸新鮮空氣 比個腦清醒啲

I probably know it word for word now,

我知道關機 嚴格講係唔好挽電話

I could probably recite it to you

但有些apps唔需要網絡都可以用

which I won't do, don't worry

依這些apps都好好用

but I listen to that a lot

像好似冥想 沉澱心靈 或其他放鬆的時候

it's kind of like a positive affirmation

我鍾意瞓係床上

slash destressing

然後聽沉澱心靈的apps

pep talk, I would say

有時我夜晚都會聽 或者係火車

again, this is one that I like to recommend to pretty much everybody.

即使係好忙碌的一日 抽5分鐘去聽

because I just find it very, very calming.

戴耳機 然後全神貫注

Making lists.

我覺得都好有效 好有幫助

I know not everybody is organized, and that's fine.

如果經常這樣做 我覺得效果越好

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm a very organized person

我都推薦依個方法比身邊的朋友

However, if my mind's feeling quite frazzle or

這些apps有Relax Melodies

I'm having a stressful week,

依個apps 對你失眠時好有幫助

I find that writing down everything I feel

或者你想聽海浪聲都可以

as thought I'm trying to store in my mind

基本上係有不同可以令人平靜的音樂

makes me feel like someone's taking a load off my shoulders

Headspace 都好用

so I like to write lists

依個apps的音樂都好適合冥想

to feel as though I'm a bit more organized

讓心靈沉澱 特別係你好忙碌的日子

even if I don't follow the lists or

你可以暫時休息5-10 分鐘

or tick anything off

另一個我有的是Relax

writing it down always feels so much better

這是個28-30分鐘吹水既app

I like to do this before going to bed,

當我覺得特別焦躁緊張繃緊時

I just find lists a really good way of decluttering your mind.

我會聽半個小時

So, if it's been a stressful week,

我每隻字都記得

granted there will be multiple lists around my house.

根本可以背比你聽

This might be a really obvious one but

我不會咁做 不用擔心

reading is a really great way of switching off.

但我經常都聽這個apps

You can get lost in books and stories and

好似個可以自我肯定 又可以紓壓激勵你的apps

I have always been a massive bookworm

這是我推薦比大家的方法

I absolutely love it.

因為我發現真的可以令人平靜

I get so excited at the prospect of having a new book to read

列清單

or when I'm getting to a really good bit, but then I

我知道不是每個人都有規劃

think 'now I'm gonna save it for tomorrow'

我都唔會話自己是咁的人

I just feel as though I can really fully escape

不過 如果我身心疲勞

when I'm reading

或者有個緊張的星期

and I think that that's such a nice feeling

我發現 將心入面的說話寫下來

to have if you feel as though you're having a particulary stressful time.

令我感覺如釋重負

the last category is a good nights sleep.

所以我喜歡列清單

now this might seem fairly obvious

去感覺我有點規劃

but if you are stressed

即使我冇跟計劃走 或打破一齊

you're probably aren't getting the best sleep that you could

寫下所有野 經常都會更好

or alternatively

我喜歡在上床前做

if you're not getting a lot of sleep

我只是覺得清單真的是平復心情的好方法

it could make you feel stressed.

所以如果我這個星期很大壓力

the two of those things come hand in hand.

同你保證 我屋企一定會有好多清單

sleep is one of the biggest things

這個舒壓方法很常見

that you need in order to feel recharged.

但睇書真是個紓壓的好方法

and these are a couple of the things that I like to do

你可以從書和故事中得到很多

to make sure, I get the best night's sleep.

而我一直都好愛書

A bath.

我絕對很愛睇書

I mean, it's pretty obvious, but

看到新書我會很興奮

having a bath is so relaxing

或者我看到精彩的地方

I mean as long as you don't go overboeard on the hot tap

但我會諗

and you end up like sweating and wishing you'd get out

唔得 我要留在明天睇

a bath can be so relaxing

我覺得當我睇書時 我可以逃離現實

I have quite a few different products that I really like using

我覺得係好好的感覺 當我特別大壓力的時候

there are so many amazing products

但最後的是 好好瞓一覺

which help you to get the best night's sleep you can.

這個好像是最常見

And I feel like I tries quite a few.

但 如果你壓力大

I also like to light some candles

你可能睡眠質素會不太好

And actually more recently I've found spa music on my phone on youtube

或者

and some of these spa music videos are like 6 hours long

如果你睡眠不足

I'm not recommending you stay in the bath for 6 hours

也會是壓力來源

because you will look like a raisin, but

這兩件事是息息相關

they're really great to listen to

睡眠是身心充電其中一樣重要的事

whilst you are in the bath

以下我鍾意做的事 可確保我的睡眠質素

because then you actually feel like you're relaxing

浸浴

it's like you've managed to recreate your own little at home spa

我的意思是很常見

and it's really-really lovely.

但浸浴會好放鬆

Brands like Aromatherapy Associates also have some really lovely relaxing oils, too.

不是你走出浴缸就滿頭大汗的熱水涼

The next thing is te calming tea, now

浸浴可以是很輕鬆的

there are many different types of tea

我有幾個我很鍾意的產品

that you can have before bed, which

有很多產品可以幫你睡得好好

are supposed to help you

我已經試過好多

haveing a best nights sleep

而且我鍾意浸浴時點蠟燭

I've got camomile teas, peppermint teas,

實際上我在電話的youtube上發現spa的音樂

in fact, I think that peppermint tea is the one that I reach for the most, but

有些甚至有6小時長

camomile is obviously supposed to help you sleep

我不建議你浸浴6小時

and is very relaxing

因為你會變成提子乾

also I think it's just kind of like the regime
