The Lost Practice of Rest
An Essential Element of Productivity

Yet, in today’s fast-paced world and for many who now work where you live, the notion of rest has been put on a very large backburner. I get it. It’s a struggle for me, too. In fact, as I write this journal, I have 7 minutes to complete and edit it so I can do the workout that I promised myself today.
Unfortunately, we can’t see the immediate impact of not resting because it is more of a slow burn kind of thing. Yet, if you can pursue more regular moments of rest, you will experience:
- Less stress
- A healthier body
- More creativity and productivity
- Deeper relationships
- Better balance
Please join me on the pursuit of rest and let me know how it is going for you. I promise to keep you posted, as well. In fact, I’ve made my deadline with myself with one minute to spare. I’m off to my spin class!
