If you’ve ever felt guilty about taking time out for yourself, then I can confirm that you absolutely are not alone. For so many of us, it feels like to be a good mum, a good partner, a good employee, daughter, friend…or whatever other roles we might have in our lives, we have to give as much of ourselves as possible.

Which means that when we’re not doing that - when we’re not hustling, achieving, being productive or putting other things and other people first, the guilt can start to creep in. So that even when we know that taking a bit of time out would be good for us, it can start to feel almost impossible to do that.

So let’s get to the bottom of this today. Here’s what we’re talking about:

-Nervous system regulation and why it’s the glue that holds us together!

-Why we feel guilty for taking time out - and why it’s part of our conditioning and not ours to carry

-How guilt ties into our sense of worth and our sense of identity, therefore making it hard to shift

-3 ways to reduce the guilt and reframe the idea of rest
