It’s been an amazing first season on Reclaiming Ourselves, but before we take a break, we had to get the panel back together! Sonya and all of her co-hosts are in the studio to share their thoughts on how to find the right pace for ourselves, allowing ourselves time to recover so we can show up as our best selves!
This process of slowing down to determine the rhythm and timing that works best for us is an important part of reclaiming ourselves. Not only do we begin to reclaim our time and energy, but we start to understand what optimizes our aliveness. In this episode, we see how each co-host views rest at this busy time of year, and how they’re managing the demands of the season.
Join us as we discuss:
- 16:39 The cultural messaging we receive that makes rest feel unsafe.
- 19:47 Why it’s hard to find our own tempo, and easy to just move at the pace the world sets for us.
- 25:07 Why it’s a good thing to celebrate slowing down.
- 39:56 When rest isn’t really restful, and how to tell the difference.
