Once upon a time on Twitter I asked Anna what her schedule actually looks like and she responded this insane calendar that was packed to the brim. I can't believe she finds time to also meditate. It so wild to me.

- Don't be a "cancer" to your highest self - Meditate (to help you hear your inner voice) - Reflect on what your inner voice tells you - Show Gratitude to all the good things, helps your brain identify things that are good for you - Affirmations to help rewire your thinking (helps rewire your perception + beliefs, which in turn affects your actions, and thus your reality ) - Let go of everything which no longer serves you (and who you want to be)

A note on affirmations: start with stepping stones. It might not be doable at the beginning of this journey to say "I am capable" or "I love myself". Instead, start with "I can do X" or "I am proud of myself for Y". Just my two cents looking back at when I started utilizing such tools. Much love

Taking personal notes: 1. Meditate (at least 10 mins) 2. Journal (Ask guidance from your highest self, and response as your highest self would) 3. Gratitude 4. Affirm (In the mirror) 5. Let Go - accept that things and people that are not serving you will leave your life.

Each time I come back to your channel, whether it's been 6 months or 2 years, I always ask myself why the hell I don't watch you more often. I'm 24(F) with no older siblings, and the advice you give always seems to come through right when I need it. Thanks Anna 💗

Learn to trust yourself, be consistent with what you want & when experiencing growth - you'll also have losses along the way, which is inevitable as you reach your highest self. The journey is never linear, provided the mental challenges along the way. But with all the work in place, we'll get to where we want to be. Thanks for the great tips Anna, your videos always come in time when I really need it 🙏

Your life falling apart when you take a big decision for yourself and try to follow an inner urge : it's real guys. Left my bf (not happily), came back to my parents, no job, health in a terrible state, but rediscovering myself. And health is starting to get better, life is starting to move again, in the exact way i want. I'm hopeful. And I'm getting my self confidence back. Thank you so much for your videos, they helped and still help me SO MUCH during these times.

Such valuable content. No one comes close to filling the space in content creation that you do. Thank you for continuing to put your time and energy into these ♡

Two videos in two days, awesome!

I really resonate with what Anna is saying!!

Oh my gosh, I'm mesmerized by the set lightning. You got good taste Anna, thanks for the contributions.

I actually feel really grateful that I've been practicing a bunch of these subconsciously, without having to put that much work into it. Like when I learnt what gratitude exercises are I thought "Oh I already do that" - but I call it 'good things' and usually think it when things happen or just throughout the day instead of a set time i.e. morning and afternoon. Still got some other things to work on ofc but something went right somewhere coz I love the kindness I already have for myself and the world/life. No doubt Anna's vids probs did some good brainwashing too over the years XD

Thank you so much for being here, the best guide ever!!!!❤

So happy for you and proud that you have reached this level of awareness. The better it gets the better it gets 😘

But also you know, take it easy. If you don't meditate and don't journal and don't do affirmation you can still be happy it's ok. But it does help, a lot! Just you know, no pressure and all that ^^.

This is truly something that speaks to us in the self improvement path. You are not the only one in that journey Anna, but your advice helps us all walking it with you

At the beginning of this year I had to re-home my dog, quit my job, put boundaries in place that cost me a handful of relationships all within a span of two months for the sake of my mental health. These were some of the scariest and toughest decisions I had to make once I was more honest with myself… but fast forward to the present- I get to wake up next to the love of my life everyday and do the things that I really love in a city that has me saying “I love living here !” daily ❤ Sometimes it gets worse - moments of doubt, darkness, and defeat - before it gets better. moving through life making hard decisions that resonate with my highest self has been life changing. We are much more resilient than we think. Thank you Anna for this and the work that you do 🥺

You are amazing, I was introduced to you over a decade ago by my first friend since kindergarten and I have time and time again have come back to watch your videos at good times, peaceful times and tragic times of my life and you have inspired me every time. I appreciate you. I hope this message finds you joy and appreciation i send to you.

Anna, you are such a hero to me! I love how quick and on point and funny you deliver these valuable informations. It resonates deeply and I am so grateful for your presence in my life 🙏

If he wanted to… he would 💁‍♀️

I love when your videos show up, mostly because it's always divine timing for where I'm at in my life, but also because you're my favourte KZfaq big sister/human/role model ❤️❤️

My highest self is always giving answers for my questions. Not long ago I asked why my life cramble when something good happens and here's the answer. Thank you master Ana 😊

I concur with all that you have shared on the journey of self acceptance and self improvement. It's crazy to me to look over the old ways I was in a lot of pain and didn't know how to ask for help. The journal "consistent messages" was a reflection exercise I hadn't grasped until you brought it up. I have many of those repeating messages and still working on bridging the gaps. Thank you for another great concise guide on a better living pattern!

Anna you’re truly a gift to the world ♥️ I’m grateful for everything that I have gained from your channel. Only when i look back at where I started to realize that, yea, this self-work is truly life changing.

Omg Anna you brought the heat with this one. I love your videos. Very inspiring

You are so good at what you do! Thank you so much Anna!❤🧡💛💚💙💜

For me 1. Carve out stillness to hear your intuition 2. Bring your intuition to fruition by meditating (vivid visualization) 3. Write down what you saw. What do i need to let go of? What do i need to embrace? What are the tiny steps i need to take now? 4. Trust yourself and maintain an abundant mindset. Feel as though you are already your highest self. 5. Ask. Ask for advice from your highest self, and write a corresponding letter 6. Know what you want. 7. Show gratitude!!! 8. Maybe record yourself saying your most personal, favorite affirmations 9. Don’t be afraid to change your beliefs to work for you 10. Learn to revel in the chaos. Reframe this as working to your advantage 11. Write also to and from parts of yourself that you feel in conflict with, that are hard to look at. Walk around in your own mind. Is it a beautiful garden? Trust that any action taken from love will yield a result that works for you. Stop feeling guilty for taking your time to think. Be patient with yourself. Try your best not to demean yourself when you “fall short”. Listen to Hozier’s No Plan or OVERTHINKING IT by WILLOW. I am so thankful to myself that I managed to get here.

i’ve been watching you since middle school you’re so helpful i love u so much !!

Thank you for sharing, it was very helpful. I recently encountered a few terrible people and had a disagreement with them. This incident has been making me feel sick and even disappointed in people. After listening to your advice, I feel much better. There's no need to let the garbage stay in your mind. Knowing that they are terrible is enough, torturing myself is clearly foolish. The key to a happy life is to let your brain return to calmness and fill it with interesting and creative stuff.

Yes, great words of wisdom. Thank you Anna! 😊🎉

This was actually so helpful! I got a gratitude journal and now a journal as well, upping up my meditation and not quitting alcohol but drinking much ,much, much less. weeee.

Important thing to know about any spiritual practice such as meditation: It will trigger your „pain body“. This is the accumulation of every feeling you‘ve ever had but haven‘t fully felt = released from your system. For reference: every time you have a ‚negative‘ thought, this creates a pain response in your body. But since we are often taught to suppress negative emotions and only allow or amplify the ‚good ones‘, the uncomfortable ones get pushed down… and they STAY THERE. When you meditate/do yoga etc, you allow this stuff to COME UP. This is a GOOD THING. But you need to embrace, fully feel and sit with them when they come. Think of it this way: You are the host of this accumulated energy. It only has you. It can‘t go anywhere else. In order to ‚get out of you‘ it has to be fully felt and acknowledged. If it helps, think of every emotional response as a chemical reaction: it just wants to happen. Only once it has happened is it over and done and you feel a little lighter than before. Most of us walk around with this huge mass of chemical reactions in our system that are waiting to happen. No wonder we get triggered so easily. Also: EVERY. EMOTIONAL REACTION. HAS. AN EXPIRATION DATE. If you allow it, it will not persist forever. Quite the opposite. Only if you resist it will it stay within and muddle up your energy field. Just keep in mind: No feeling no healing. You got this🌸❤️✨

Thank you Anna for always trying to pass this teaching to us, to teach ourselves to love ourselves more...

Thank you for showing the way! You are such an inspiration 🙏💛

Thanks Anna! I've been struggling with a lot of ruminating thoughts for who knows when and tinnitus combined, but your channel always brings me hope that one day I'll conquer all of it and self transcend to the person I wanted to be

Thank you for posting videos, you are my queennnnn❤

The writing to your highest self is such a good idea!

I need to watch this every day

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Anna posts vids at the exact moment i need them

Thank you for your videos! I love the way you speak the truth..doing affirmations at the beggining made me cry.. but over time I do believe it and give me strength and motivation to achieve my goals :3

That’s really great self-awareness and a lot of inner work. You’re awesome and these videos rock

Omg this came right on time. I so so needed this . Thank you ❤

I don't know how can I thank you enough. You are my inspired person on teaching self love and be a better version of yourself. Thank you for all your videos. Send you a lot of love. 😊💋❤

oh how I have missed these longer form videos. also your smile is beautiful.

Hi, Anna it has been a while hope you are well. I have not been seeing your videos for a while and didn't give it much thought but after watching your vid I am again reminded of why I watch your content and I believe we are friends even though we have not shared a drink and have a one on one. But I believe the time we spend on KZfaq is a shared experience and through the magic of the internet we are friends. As a friend it is nice to see you again after a while and I hope we can be friends for years to come Love Swad

Really needed this today! Thank you Anna

This is really great! I had someone talk to me and try to get me on board with their way of thinking. Literally went "we're stuck in this right?" And I straight up went "I dont accept that" Words are incredibly powerful towards what you believe and accept for yourself and your reality

Thank you very much. I am going to start this immediately. Your journey has brought you to help other people.

Kudos for listening to yourself about not drinking, I'm glad and happy for you. There's not enough comments about this.

Anna, you continue to privide great advice and videos. Thank you.

made me cry I love you Anna!

I love this and you, Anna

Great words of wisdom. Thanks for sharing.

Anna Akana is my spiritual coach. She has so much wisdom, and she is unafraid of achieving her dreams!

I'm going to watch all of your videos they are so interesting and help me so much. Thank you for existing.

Thank you Anna let's connect to our higher selves together ! 💪

Thank you for making wonderful videos❤

oh wow this really hit close to home. Thanks for making this!

This is SO GOOD, Anna. I must admit. at least this morning, this is met with resistance from within me, from the all "Ooo, I'm unworthy~" pattern I'm trying to shake, so I'll definitely try this method. Thank you so much for sharing it! When I can afford it, I'll buy the workbook!

I need more of this. Thank you❤

Thank youuuu for sharing this!!

Thanks Anna! The kick in the butt I needed. I know this, I’ve just haven’t been doing it!

What a fantastic channel to stumble upon! From one creator to another AMAZING work :) YES meditate !

Every word she utters penetrates my soul

Modality and fruition are great words. 🙂

Thank you.. I really needed to hear all of this.

So right on. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏

being sober is a super power

I'll try the affirmations and the quick bullet writing. Thanks for the tip!

Anna Akana motivates me in a way no one else can

Anna!!! Always speaking facts. I love you wow

I can't believe you summed this up in 7 minutes!! Amazing. This has been pretty much my process for over 10 years. Anyone who reads this- happiness and contentment is real! You can feel fulfilled and at peace with yourself and your life, even enjoy your life to a degree you didn't think possible. Meditation is uncomfortable, but do yourself a favor and start! And try to be as consistent as possible, and don't beat yourself up if you fall off the wagon. Just start again with even more motivation than before. All the best to you! You are not alone, and you deserve to feel happy, fulfilled, and deeply loved as your truest self

Love the message and the setting omg 🔥🔥

Love these motivational talks Anna 👏👏👏👏

Anna's been dropping vids left and right this week.

Solid advice summed up beautifully. Merci

Lately I'm trying to do things I dislike at first or makes me uncomfortable. I then realise such things where not that terrible to experiment, I believe it somehow makes me stronger and more confident.

Thank you I am grateful for you

Well done, Anna!

Youthful and wise. Keep it up girl

Love ya, been watching forever

Omg whaaaat another post! 😍😍

Anna, you outdid yourself.

perfect timing to see this im 26 about to be 27 and i swear it plays a role becoming literally all this is happening rn

The best person to ask for advice is rarely yourself, because you're just going to tell yourself exactly what you want to hear, and not what you honestly need to hear. We all have a tendency to avoid what is difficult and convince ourselves that what's easy is right.

You are a beauty Anna. Keep up the good content.

❤ Anna is my spirit animal ❤

Love on thyself is what we need to grow interest on life😊

God almighty this girl is extremely smart. I’m glad I found this channel today!!
