The resistance to the rest that we need on a soul level is real and the societal expectations that have been created that push people to the edge. It’s time to be ok with saying “I’m doing absolutely nothing” and hear your soul whisper a sigh of relief. 💫🙏
I end reading this with a very big sigh ... of relief. Because bone-felt and skin-deep I always knew this state isn't always about depression. Rest indeed is not only restorative, it has such transformational powers. So here I am at the moment, for the third time in less than 10 years, close at the edge of being burned out. The last time was only one year and a half ago.
Allowing ourselves to rest is difficult, doing "nothing" at all is hard but we can un-learn it. Sometimes that's the only real thing we can do. Thank you so much Juniper for these healing and soothing words. I'll keep them in my pocket <3
