#For Rest

I used to think sleep was just enough for me but rest has way more to it than that! Here are the 6 types of rest I implemented in my life which changed everything: Physical Rest 🛌 Sometimes your body needs more than a workout; it needs recovery. Stretch, nap, or just slow down. It might feel like you’re falling behind but remember a step back is necessary before two steps forward. Mental Rest 🧠 Your mind isn’t a machine. Step away from the noise, read, or take short breaks to reset your focus. Emotional Rest 💙 True rest can come from connection. Spend time with loved ones who make you feel safe, seen, and supported. Social Rest 👥 Not every interaction fuels you. Spend time with people who lift you up, not drain you. Sensory Rest 👁️ Constant screens and noise overload us today especially on social media. Unplug, dim the lights, and let your senses breathe. Purposeful Rest ✨ Sometimes rest is found in alignment. Do things that give meaning like leaning into your creative hobbies or self-reflecting. With love, Sang

A little reminder: ‘rest isn’t something you have to earn. It’s a requirement for your well-being.’ Words I’m taking on board this Friday evening. Have a restful weekend all.

Just rest. Most people think of rest as just physical but there are actually 7 types of rest: physical, sensory, social, emotional, mental, spiritual and creative. Which type of rest do you need right now? Schedule yourself some time to rest this weekend, this holiday, this season. Rest is one of the most productive things you can do for your mind and body. 💛 . . . . . . . #essentialoils #holistic #scienceofessentials #scienceofoils #scienceofessentialoils #nurseofoils #scienceofessentials #essentialoileducator #essentialoileducation #essentialoileducator #aromatherapy #aromatherapist #essentialoilrecipes #diffuserblends #diyessentialoilrecipes #diyessentialoilrecipe #essentialoildiyrecipes #selfcare

Resting isn’t always about physically resting your body. It’s about resting your mind. Resting your nervous system. We often turn to scrolling and screens to “switch off” and decompress. But in switching off, we’re switching off from our bodies too, disconnecting from ourselves. Numbing our feelings. This might bring temporary relief, but those feelings will still be there the moment you put the screen down (and we often actually feel worse for it, rather than rested). True rest comes not by switching off or tuning out, but by tuning IN to our internal world and into the support of the space around us. Tuning into our breath. Tuning into the feeling of the support beneath us, holding us. Tuning into nature. Tuning into the sensations in our body. This is what brings the body into a state of true rest; PRESENCE! Presence tells your brain and nervous system that it’s safe to be here now. That it’s safe to slow down. There are no threats we need to run away from. If we’re not used to it, resting can feel uncomfortable. Precisely because it can bring up all of the feelings we’ve been avoiding. Or because it can bring up feelings of guilt around not being productive. So we must show our bodies and nervous system that it’s safe to rest. It’s safe to soften and be present. In small amounts. Taking small moments to be present with yourself. Even micro-moments of rest helps to build this safety. When we do, we have so much more capacity to handle life’s challenges. Beyond that, we get to reclaim our vitality. This might look like: walking without a podcast, restorative or yin yoga, yoga Nidra, being in nature, taking a bath, having a massage, putting your hands on your heart and belly and taking 5 deep breaths, lying on the floor, cuddling with a pet or loved one.

💭 rest isn’t just sitting doing nothing i learnt about this last year and it blew my mind. i used to think rest = doing nothing: cancelling plans, lying on the sofa, bubble baths, scrolling on my phone 😵‍💫 comment REST and i’ll send you my free guide on this but here’s the thing—your body, mind, and soul need so much more than this to truly feel nourished. there are actually 7 types of rest, and each one serves us in a different way: 🦋 physical rest – lying down, naps, slowing your body 🦋 mental rest – giving your brain a break from thinking, planning, decision-making 🦋 sensory rest – reducing screens, noise, and overstimulation 🦋 creative rest – exposing yourself to beauty, inspiration, or ideas that recharge you 🦋 emotional rest – being able to express your feelings without judgment 🦋 social rest – stepping back from draining interactions, choosing nourishing company 🦋 spiritual rest – connecting to something bigger than yourself, meaning, or purpose the thing i’m learning? rest isn’t always about withdrawal or stillness. some of the most nourishing rest comes from joy, play, connection, and community—our nervous systems literally co-regulate when we share, laugh, and feel safe with others. so this week, maybe ask yourself: “which type of rest am i actually craving?” ✨ your nervous system, body, and soul will thank you. #rest #slowliving #healing #burnout #mindfulness mentalhealth community yoga therapy selfawareness selfcare selflove yogatherapy

Rest isn’t about checking out. It’s about checking back in. When you slow down with awareness, Your nervous system finally gets the message. 💌It’s safe to relax. You don’t need long breaks or perfect routines. Even brief moments of presence can rejuvenate you. Start with one minute. Take a few conscious breaths. Take a slow, mindful walk. A short moment of stillness. You can find simple grounding practices, such as breathing and walking meditations, in the betterMe Mental Health app. Link in bio.

Hustle culture has took it too far, you’re not weak just because you sleep 8 hours a day. God designed us to need 8 out of every 24 hours for rest. Anyone that says otherwise is literally shortening their life, for what? Money? There is more to life than money… #venturista #travel #traveler #traveling #nomad

Let go and rest. Sleep well tonight. Let comfort find you, let your breath slow, and let yourself feel held by the stillness of the night. #sleepwell #restfulnight #soothingsleep #FYP #sleepshorts
