The Healing Power of Deep Rest Mistress Wellbeing

    • Mental Health

I’m on a pre-retreat in Bali, and I spent the morning having a full body massage. 
I didn’t feel particularly stressed to begin with but I make it my practice to have a massage every day. 

The effect always surprises me, as if my body is holding onto stress like a magnet holds paper clips, effortlessly, unconsciously. 


So I started thinking about the healing power of deep rest, the ‘Bali Glow’ we all take on after a week of group connection, yoga, singing and massage. 
The surprising thing is just how much stress floats about in my body even when I feel relatively relaxed!
Yin yoga has taught me during the pandemic just how relaxed I can get, and how good that is for my mood and my body.
Today is all about the healing power of deep relaxation.
