The Power of Rest: Why Slowing Down Is a Form of Resistance

Описание: Relaxation is misunderstood. Slowing down, taking a step back, and caring for yourself is not selfish, it's not lazy, and it is not a waste of time. In a culture that glorifies constant productivity, choosing rest is often framed as indulgent when in reality, it's essential.

If you are trying to build something impactful, help others in this world, or just live a happy, healthy life - taking meaningful, intentional rest - as often as you can and soon as you need it - is one of the most necessary and beneficial things you can do for yourself and others.

In this video, I speak about why true relaxation is so important, and also what the act of choosing rest reveals about our relationship with self worth and self love.
