TOPIC: 

Rest is one of the most underrated, yet critical factors for overall health. It heals your body, decreases stress, increases productivity, and so much more. But, it often gets pushed to the bottom of the priority list. On today’s episode, we break down the difference between active and passive rest, the seven different types of rest, and how to address each deficit. We share our favorite activities for winding down and recharging, and our go-to tools for implementing rest into our daily lives. 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Signs that you’re not getting enough rest 
  • The negative side effects of prolonged physical, mental, and/or emotional stress 
  • Learning how to define who you are outside of your job title 
  • The two components of physical rest 
  • Why we love taking mini breaks throughout the day to rest and refocus 
  • Recognizing when you’re experiencing sensory overload
  • Simple ways to incorporate more active and passive rest into your life
