Rest Rituals
“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
There can be a tendency to equate sleep with rest. How many hours we are getting. Trying to get to bed early to fit enough hours in. Even with a respectable number of hours sleep under your belt you may still wake up tired.
The truth is that not all rest is created equal. The kind of sleep where you practically pass out with tiredness has a very different quality from the sleep that gently descends upon you when you are in a restful state.
A Wee Retreat will introduce you to and help you create your own rest rituals. Designed to move mind, body & spirit into a resting state so you can live a well rested life.
Many of us are living with a rest deficit. Resting is not simply pausing or being idle. Resting is an opportunity to:
Replenish
Restore
Renew
Recover
Rebuild
Regenerate
Refresh
Repair
Imagine living life from that place.
Rest is often thought of as a luxury but the truth is its a necessity and we often find that when we don’t choose to take time for rest the body will choose for us and we’ll be laid low with a cold or bug of some kind.
The absolutely best time to rest is when you look at your life and think you don’t have time.
