Rest is not something you need to earn, it's something you need to function and take care of yourself. Try and limit "fake rest" (scrolling, background noise) which still drains you
@daisyyhoneyy
Key Focuses:
• Hydration
• Regular and Nutritious Meals
• Consistent Sleep Schedule
• Light movement (stretching, walking)
• Focus on Rebuilding your baseline energy!!

ME TIME
Create Breathing Room
• Saying "no" to non-essential obligations and setting boundaries when it comes to planning and events
• Come up with weekly plans (meals you're gonna make, things that need to get done, etc) to plan ahead
• Pausing long-term goals as needed during this time

Follow Curiosity When it Comes
Sparks return when you play without pressure!!
If curiosity arrives, follow it, nurture it!

Embrace Boredom
Embrace the slowness. This for me is the hardest part of recovering from burnout. Boredom is what helps recalibrate our nervous system after it was in overdrive for so long!
