How to get the rest your body, mind & soul ACTUALLY needs The Lifestyle First Podcast

Episode 6 of season 11 of The Lifestyle First Podcast is centred around the T in the Lifestyle First Method.
TIME OUT: WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU TAKE TIME OUT FROM YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE?
It’s so important to have some reflective space in your day, some “me” time. Focus on enjoying the moment – be mindful. Do you have space in your day to slow down your breathing? Do you journal to write down ideas, thoughts, feelings, goals and affirmations?
* * * * *
In this episode I explore the nature of rest & recuperation & answer the question what constitutes a true restorative behaviour?
I explore 7 types of ‘rest’, many of which may challenge our traditional idea of what constitutes taking time out.
* * * * *
The two references I explore are:
1. The real reason why we are tired and what to do about it (TedX with Saundra Dalton-Smith - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGNN4EPJzGk
2. Sacred Rest by Saundra Dalton-Smith - https://www.drdaltonsmith.com/publications
•••••
As always I give you three actions to take away from the episode which are:
1. Step outside every day & connect with nature to get your creative rest.
2. Reduce sensory overload by limiting your exposure to notifications, screens & sources of information.
3. Do something for someone else with no expected reward to support your spiritual rest.
