When I experience fatigue and overwhelm, the best way to care for myself is to settle into my body. I do this by connecting with my energy and letting go of thoughts and energy that is not mine. It is a process that over time has become a practice for me.Sometimes I can settle into connection with myself by doing things that naturally give me joy.

When this isn’t possible, allowing my body to rest is the next best thing.Body resting is a form of body listening.Body resting is a practice of noticing the thoughts and energy I am unnecessarily carrying with me.

When I acknowledge what I can let go of, there is a pathway to feeling and sensing that leads to a release and letting go. This is anchored in my body’s language. When my body speaks to me and I listen, this is the alchemy that is possible.Meditation is a form of body resting and body listening.Therapeutic Yoga is a form of body resting and body listening.What are other ways you practice body resting and body listening?

Body listening and body resting are ways to honor your body.When you honor your body, you honor your truth.Your truth is your wisdom.May this gift support you now and later.
