You crave rest. 🕯️
You finally carve out time for it — the tea is hot, the house is quiet, the list is on pause.
But instead of relaxing… you feel restless.
Your mind spins.
You reach for your phone.
You tidy that one thing.
You put on a podcast in the background.
You tell yourself you’ll rest later.
Sound familiar?
This isn’t because you’re bad at resting.
And it’s not a discipline problem.
✨ It’s often your nervous system doing exactly what it’s been trained to do:
Keep you moving, because stillness feels unfamiliar.
Sometimes even unsafe.
And here’s the truth I want to gently offer you:
👉 It’s not rest you’re resisting — it’s what it brings up.
The feelings you haven’t had time or space to feel.
The fear that everything might fall apart if you stop.
The belief that if you’re not being productive… you’re falling behind.
💛 This can shift. Slowly. Gently. One safe pause at a time.
This is exactly the kind of work I support women with in my 1:1 coaching — helping your body learn that it’s safe to soften, breathe, and rest.
If you’re curious to explore this concept for yourself, I’d love to chat on a free exploratory call. These are pressure free, no pitch calls. Simple time for you to get clarity.
