Here's the 3 takeaways:

  1.  Catch: Notice this week the urge to do more, when you decline your brain or body's request for rest because you feel like you can't until you get it "all" done.
  2.  Challenge: Notice the urge of, "I can't sit down until X, Y, Z is done" and respond with, "but what if I can? What if I can take a moment to rest and just be?" & if you're feeling spicy - "what if I can just leave that task undone? Or at least undone until tomorrow?"
  3.  Change: Do differently, take that 1 or 10 or 15 minutes to rest & let yourself be uncomfortable in that rest.
