We all have them, right? Those days when you feel sad for no specific reasons and everyone around you seems to be doing great, so why aren’t you? So sometimes I just feel like you should embrace those days when you feel like that. I just try to accept it and there might be something sweet about that. Especially if you treat yourself with some sad lonely slow luxurious.

But let's remember we don't have to look on point like Jenny, with beautiful black clothes, makeup, shoes, jewelry, a leather-looking beanie. Like, that's a whole professional chic outfit for me lol
Love to Read, Thanks for being a Youtuber that Reads (and a Writer WOW!)
Am I the only one who wants to come over for tea and brunch? Your tables have always been so beautiful, that brunch table was incredible. 😊
Thank you for addressing this, Jenny. I spend the better part of the winter months feeling this way & I’m ok with it. I only wish others in my life were, as well. I don’t need “cheering up” or “fixing”, I only be wish to be left alone. Love to you from Florida.
I’m in that mood today. I agree, just accepting it & being gentle with yourself is the best way to do the day. Your video was like a big, heart-felt hug. 💗 Thank you for your genuine content.
Thanks for this video, Jenny! Question regarding Okay Days: I'm so looking forward to it! Is it possible to pre-order the e-book too? I don't own any physical books, because, you know, minimalism 😉
I listen to The Art of Being, especially The Miscellaneous Chapters from the Zhuangzi. It talks about everything i feel, and keeps me tender, because i easily become detached, rough and numb when sad. I also read quotes from the movies of Tarkovski. Both guide my sadness towards creative endeavours, instead of becoming mindless and getting lost in distractions like my phone or even chores.
Studio Ghibli movies are perfect for a gentle cheer-me-up
This video is so good for mental health. We need to be aware of our psychologycal necesities and how to respond to them. Congratulations and thanks
This is sort of wierd, but my GO TO movie when I'm sad is The Fault in Our stars. I love it it for several reasons, but the main things this movie does for me is: 1. It makes me cry so hard, and sometimes when you feel sad thats all you need, and 2. it makes me think about other things that happen to other people, and it sometimes happens to good people, and thats just life. It gives me perspective, and a reminder of that other people have gone through horrible stuff and keep going, that they feel sad, heartbreak, anger and hopeless, but they get through it, and so will I. The book is also beautiful.
Great Video, Jenny. Went straight to my sofa, sat down with a cup of tea (the big double glass cups from Villeroy & Boch are my favorite ones) & a book (Siddharta) 😅
Even though I momentarily have a reason to be sad, this video is beautiful and the tips might help a little
Your videos are always so beautiful and comforting. I’m endlessly inspired by you 🤍
I am in that sad and lost condition since the war started, your videos are my safe space. Thank you, Jenny💞
P.S. Waiting for your book's release!
Genmaicha 🤩
My favorite melancholy movie is 'Only Lovers Left Alive'. It is whole mood in itself from the beginning.
I feel the same and if someone try to make me happier it just do the opposite 😅 I’m like « leave me alone I want to be sad »
I do love my friends but alone time I appreciate so I do whatever I want and take care of myself and my mental health 🤍 going to coffee shop alone or cinema I love to do ( some of my friends are always « you’re so brave doing things alone » and I’m just well I won’t wait someone to come with me if nobody wants to go see that movie .)
Thanks for the info for Villeroy and boch I’ve been wanted « la boule » in beige since you showed us 🙌🏻
Very stressed at the moment. Life, the world and work is too heavy and just gets more intense in the lead up to Christmas. Hoping putting up some Christmas decorations will cheer me up 😔
I'm recently into Murakami books and a good nap.
But when I'm super sad i cheer me up with a dance, move my body makes me feel better in an instant
My absolute favourite video of yours! Everything about it! And for the things I do on a really blue day: I rewatch your videos or I enjoy David‘s productions or I watch some of my comfort films such as Totoro, Kiki, spirited away, the secret book of Kells, Song of the Sea, Wolf walkers…. I also drink like five or 6 cups of organic cocoa and stay awake till 3 am 🍡
I hope you’re well, sending love your way, always!
Candles are a huge help for me on melancholy days. The warmth of the flame and the warm light lift up my soul. – Thank you very much for this video!
I'm always in a mellow mood- so it's always Lana Del Rey, Selena Gomez, SZA, and Jhene Aiko for me? Sometimes I add Grimes or FKA Twigs. Around this spooky, melancholic time of the year- there's this movie on Tubi that I like called Phenomena (1985) which is a very aesthetic horror movie with the strangest twist I've seen in a while.
❤
I'm watching The Station Agent on this gloomy afternoon here in Brussels. Thanks so much Jenny, what a wonderful tip <3
A gloomy day has to involve a big bowl of popcorn for me. Butter, salt, nooch.
