#528: Avoiding Burnout through Sacred Rest

Have you spent far too long trying to do it all, only to end up exhausted and overwhelmed?

Does the idea of rest and refueling sound wonderful but impossible at the same time?

Might it be safe to say that if you continue at this speed, you'll be destined for burnout . . . emotionally, spiritually, physically, relationally, and professionally?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, you'll want to hit pause on whatever you're doing and listen to this episode on the More to Be Podcast. Actually, even if you're not sure you're exactly headed for burnout, you'll want to bend an ear to hear what Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith has to say to us about the importance of sacred rest and the road it took her to find it. She is no stranger to over-achieving, burned-out living. Yet she found another way as God revealed to her that we are to work from a place of rest, and not rest only after we've finished our work. Yes, this episode is not only inspirational, it is practical for all of us seeking to embrace the gift of rest that God has given us.
