GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO REST

If this show seems different, it’s because it is. I’m now releasing two shorter shows per week, including one of Fridays that is nothing more than a guided meditation on a particular topic. This will be easier for you to find if you want to do replays. Enjoy!   For some reason we are incredibly adverse to taking time to rest and relax, us busy people. So to that end, I’ve made a list of ways you can actually build more rest time into your life. Because as we all know, it’s beneficial. Even critical, for reasons I share here. Ways to give yourself more rest time:   1.     Practice breathwork as soon as you wake up, just for five minutes 2.     Forgive those who anger you. Just let that sh*t go. 3.     Acknowledge yourself. What’s this have to do with rest? Plenty—here’s where the permission comes in 4.     Take back lunch 5.     Turn off your phone even in small increments 6.     Start to walk places or ride a bike there (especially if you have no time for exercise) 7.     Take more naps 8.     Ask yourself what you need and provide it   May this help you get all the rest you need!   Suzanne   PS.
