Ways to Rest When the Mind Feels Busy

When was the last time you truly rested? Not numbing out with Netflix or scrolling your phone, but real, replenishing rest?

In this episode I explore our complex relationship with rest — from the guilt of slowing down to the discomfort of stillness and the tendency to overthink when we finally stop. Drawing on science, mindfulness, and personal reflection, I offer practical ways to weave rest into your everyday life.

You’ll learn:
✨ Common ways people relate to rest
✨ Four different types of rest and micro practices 
✨ Ways to release the guilt so that you can truly rest

Whether you struggle to give yourself permission to pause, or you’re craving new ways to restore yourself, this episode is a powerful reminder: rest is not lazy. Rest is not just a reward. Rest is as essential as the food we eat and the air we breathe.
