114: How To Rest Well


Listen Later

The world tells us: Work is important; we need to reply: Rest is important too.

I’d like to change an idea in your head today. And it’s an idea that you probably didn’t realize how engrained it had become… that the idea of rest, and the idea of work, are not opposites. In fact, they are partners.

Welcome to the Superwoman Code, friends. Where I strive to give you a little glimpse into how to make your health work for you, not against you. And today, that glimpse involves changing your definition of rest. Because, for most of human history, rest – time in which we can recharge the mental and physical batteries we use while labouring – was prized as a gift.

Here are the Seven Ways To Rest Well I talk about in today's episode. 

1. Take rest seriously

2. Establish clear boundaries 

3. Treat rest as a skill

4. Craft a daily schedule layering work and rest

5. Practice deep play

6. Don't neglect sleep and naps

7. Encourage others to rest with you

 

Happy resting, Superwomen!
