A replay from your favourite episodes and coming at a timely part of the year:
Derek and Scott look at the work of Dr Saundra Dalton-Smith on different types of rest.
1. Physical Rest
Giving your body a rest.
2. Mental Rest
It could be that you need to give your mind a rest.
3. Emotional Rest
We can get emotionally tired when we are not paying attention to our emotions.
4. Spiritual Rest
Reconnecting with God
5. Social Rest
Different relationships can ones that build us up or drain us.
6. Sensory Rest
Especially with screens.
7. Creative Rest
Creative rest is not about putting a demand on your creative ability; that’s not rest, that’s work. It is the opposite. It’s allowing white space in your life and giving room for your creativity to show up. Creative rest lets you focus on your basic need for wonder. You can enjoy fulfilling that basic need in ways that don’t put any pressure on your being creative. Yes, creativity may bloom from the seeds planted, but creativity is not the objective, only rest.
Summary
Don’t have to do all of these every day, or every week. But it is helpful to be aware that there are different ways to rest and different people will rest in different ways
