there's been a divide in the world some
people say don't panic and others say we
should panic but the way we're panicking
isn't productive buying up the shelves
and stores is not helping
leave it for people who honestly need it
be compassionate during this time it's
okay to worry especially if you're
someone like me
I've been ordering from Horizon farms
organic market not sponsored in order to
eat cleaner and heal my body I found
some coconut yogurt god that was
expensive
it's a shame Japan doesn't sell it for a
reasonable price being at home I've been
trying not to get depressed from lack of
Sun I had pneumonia for the fourth time
in my life walking pneumonia not the c19
we're gonna call it that but I could get
it easily because well I have a lung
disease called asthma it's severe enough
to need as my medication every single
day so if I get any illness it's the
worst but I heard if you get dressed in
the morning and do something productive
but relaxing while being sick it tricks
your brain into thinking you're not sick
and helps you heal just a little bit
faster
[Music]
you
this morning and Yugi still in bed it's
actually afternoon now there's a bear
next year wake up I was on antibiotics
for about one week know my work wanted
me to go in to sign some certificates
for the kids so I had no choice but to
leave the house it's been two weeks self
quarantine so today we're gonna go to
kiichi Jody and Shinjuku because I have
a couple things I need to do for my work
I've had this call for a while so we'll
have to see like how I feel now I feel a
lot better than I did before but I'm
still struggling with this like
respiratory infection or whatever I have
I'm on antibiotic but I don't know
what's happening with it's not getting
completely better so we'll have to see
how I feel today and then maybe make a
decision tomorrow so today we're gonna
just go to those two places and have
lunch and then see what happened
Japan is under a lot of stress right now
there's a lot of people that are getting
corroded by or it's been two cases near
us so it's very scary for me and the
reason why I'm afraid to go outside
right now even though I have to work is
because I have a lung disease I have
asthma so if I do catch anything then it
can be serious so it is scary for me and
that's the reason why I'm a little
nervous about going outside I do have to
go to work so I have no choice for
somebody that has lung disease right
like me and getting bronchitis like
every single year in pneumonia three
times it's very very scary for me that's
why I'm just like I'm a little down
lately and a little terrified and trying
to get some videos done I'm not going to
be able to make videos outside so much
so I hope you guys will enjoy the indoor
videos for now I think the world is kind
of in chaos and we have to take
precaution
I can feel the air and how heavy it is
in Tokyo you can sense the fear the
train stations are empty even on a
weekend masks and hand sanitizers are
sold out everywhere it's almost like
there's something following you wherever
you go it's a pretty strange feeling
okay so we're in Shinjuku right now and
it's so empty here so empty there's like
nobody not not only because of the virus
but because of the the rain right now
but it's just like so empty
[Music]
umbrella condoms we went to lunch at
food hall blast
Tokyo it reminded duty of LA with all
the western-style food we settled for
some Mexican food and did a little bit
of people-watching then the weather took
a bit of a turn yeah cuz you can see
like a little flurry
so we just finished eating lunch and now
we're gonna probably get some coffee
today's white thing white day in Japan
is where the guy gets a girl again super
depressed like I was anxious like sad I
don't know like I haven't had a place to
go because I just need at least one day
Beauty will protect me from the co2 fire
Bev he tried to protect me from a guy
that pushed to you today he almost ran
after him then I grabbed him like no no
fighting during rotavirus season
this is so cute I actually
[Music]
what are you doing to stay positive
during this time staying inside for the
past two weeks was sort of nice after
working for so long but it made me
really appreciate nature and the
outdoors just a little bit more so we're
teaching Jodi right now and it's
actually pretty crowded here I'm shocked
but I know people are kind of gravitated
towards this area because it's
underneath something raining and snowing
at the same time times like these can be
mentally exhausting make sure you keep
up with your self-care and mental health
do things that make you laugh the one
thing I worry about is my family back
home so me being sick my mental health
and on top of that worrying about loved
ones when you're miles away has been
quite scary
[Music]
the snow falling from the sky was so
beautiful there was nobody around you
could hear the snow hitting the ground I
never appreciated snow and the outdoors
as much as this time in my life
Wow this restaurant looks amazing look
at it
so gorgeous in here
[Music]
so before 3:00 p.m. students out of
school that are their schools are closed
they're not allowed to come into the
arcade because they're not supposed to
be out right and it's kind of an issue
because there's a lot of kids that are
out of school so they're going to these
places and it's causing chaos so it's
kind of insane
[Music]
I'm a firm believer in healing with
nature ever since I moved to Japan I was
able to appreciate nature more than I
ever did before if we stay inside all
day it can make us sicker even just
spending time on our balcony or in our
back yard is really important
[Music]
the next morning I decided to check my
lungs with an x-ray and confirm
mycoplasma was still present in my body
with a blood test as well so I made
myself vegan pancakes using buckwheat
flour
my health has kind of been put on hold
since I got pneumonia it has become
quite depressing having something like
this and having to stop healing your gut
so here's what happened at the clinic so
I just came back from the doctor I don't
know why I'm filming this I don't even
know if I'm gonna post it I just like
walked out the door without makeup and I
just put on a shirt and I got an x-ray
done and a blood test which is gonna
take a week to come back I don't even
know why they even bothered but she said
that it looks like I have Michael plasma
pneumonia which is the third or fourth
time that I've had this I'm just so
tired of being sick like and it's
probably see Bo's faults to be honest
because your gut is like everything it
protects you it's your immune system and
like I can't even finish a protocol
without getting sick I'm trying so hard
not to be stressed because I'm having
heart problems and super high blood
pressure and my heart's palpitating and
last night I had a dream that I was in
the hospital and then I woke up and I
was having the same symptoms that I was
having in my dream which was the
scariest most traumatizing thing ever
sorry my eyes are like itchy from pollen
I'm trying to relax and breathe and not
stress but just sucks when you're
constantly sick and you do everything in
your power to be healthy
[Music]
haha
mother sticky guys did you get to good
night
it's the killer I was at that point
where there was nothing I could do
anymore I wanted to get better as soon
as possible so I headed home after the
pharmacy and I took a midday bath and
decided that today I was going to make
it a point to do absolutely nothing
[Music]
this reminds me two years ago before I
met my now husband when I went to the
doctor and I got an x-ray and found that
I had mycoplasma pneumoniae but it was
at a very late stage so I do not want
that to happen again so I need to go
home and relax I'm the type of person
who needs to be working on something or
doing something constantly so relaxing
is tough for me I do have to say though
one thing I don't miss about teaching is
getting sick from children
[Music]
you
all right I feel a very much refreshed
I'm still coughing but it's taking a
shower and everything made me feel so
good I'm just still being careful I
think it's a good idea to stay home this
week and watch my body and make sure
that nothing serious happens yeah I mean
like I said I asked them what they
thought about how I'm feeling and my
symptoms they did not think I had the
kind of virus there was really nothing
that I could do at that point so I don't
know it just makes me wonder like how
many people are being turned down when
they're feeling sick about getting
tested for the corona virus like there's
a lot of people that are probably
suffering from you know asthma and like
all that stuff you would think that they
would be like I think we should just in
case to test you I don't know but I've
been at home all day and last week in
the week before so haven't really left
the house except for yesterday I feel a
lot better so I get I don't want you
guys to worry I'm like really recovering
for all of you who have chronic
illnesses my heart goes out to you at
this stage we need to stay at home but
create something start a business come
up with amazing ideas adopt a hobby this
is the optimal time to provide ourselves
with some love remember there have been
amazing things invented during a time of
quarantine so don't just sit around Yuji
came home and gave me a flower for white
day you're so thank you flower shop was
named more Dita actually oh yeah what
did you say
oh thanks plane you why there's so many
more events all right yeah really why
cuz they all know the flower shops

kids or something

[Music]
