Rest is one of those seemingly simple concepts. Rest! How complex can that be? Doesn't everyone want to rest? Isn't rest inherently rewarding? If that were true, why are we a culture of burned out, overworked, and disconnected people? On today's episode, we're talking about the radical practice of rest. Not because I have it nailed, but because I'm practicing alongside you. Turns out rest, in its various forms, can be a powerful tool for liberation - if we are courageous enough to stick with it. Rest invites us to reclaim our bodies, intuition, spirit, and loosen the grip of grind culture. Thanks for listening today. May we all experience the deep rest we need.
