Grow Yourself Up

Ep 16: Unwinding from Overdoing and Rest


Listen Later

In this episode Cath discusses how overdoing, overworking and being constantly busy are ways in which many of us have learnt to manage life. We operate with our nervous systems in the ON position all the time, never giving ourselves space and time to recuperate. 


For many of us this way of being has been how we have kept ourselves safe, so starting to give it up is complex and takes time.


Cath speaks about why it can feel so hard to unwind this pattern and some of the nervous system details behind this. She shares honestly some of her own challenges with this and how this has showed up over the past 2 years. 


Towards the end, Cath refers to the work of Tricia Hersey (The Nap Ministry) and Tamu Thomas (Live Three Sixty).
