We live in a culture that glorifies hustle, productivity, and constant motion, yet our bodies and souls are begging for rest. Note: there’s a key difference between doing restful things and actually resting.
We are told to slow down by scheduling a yoga class, taking a walk, or “self-caring” our way to balance, but often we’re still mentally running, planning, or worrying the whole time.
True rest asks more of us: presence, surrender, and the willingness to stop rehearsing the next thing. It’s less about what you’re doing and more about how fully you allow yourself to be.
In this episode of The Freedom Frequency podcast series, Ana and I explore the subtle conditioning that makes rest feel “unproductive” or indulgent, and how that belief keeps us in cycles of self-doubt and depletion.
We also share how uncomfortable rest can feel at first (hello, fidgeting and guilt), and why that discomfort is actually an invitation into intimacy with yourself and Spirit.
