After being laid out flat for the past three days with a stomach virus, I had an epiphany. Have we forgotten in this society what it means to truly rest? Even in our “down time” and “days off” we are constantly filling our mind space and time with stuff, consuming technology and information at record speeds. And in turn, we’re never giving our minds and bodies the real rest they need, the time free of outside input. And is this lack of true rest contributing to all the chronic mental and physical health struggles we’re seeing today? And how about the lack of motivation in today’s younger generations we see? Could it all be connected? Food for thought.

Here’s a link to the TEDX video mentioned in today’s episode: bit.ly/2T56JcF
