✨ Rest vs. Avoidance ✨
They can look similar on the outside—but they feel very different on the inside.

🌿 Rest is intentional. It recharges your mind and body so you can return with more clarity and energy.
🌪️ Avoidance is fueled by anxiety or fear. It gives temporary relief but usually increases stress in the long run.

💡 Ask yourself: Am I choosing this break to care for myself—or to run from something I’m afraid to face?

Both are human, but only one truly restores. Today, give yourself permission to rest—not avoid. 💛

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light” - Matthew 11:28-30

Sometimes the parts of ourselves we hide the most are the ones that need our care the most. 💛

Take a moment today to reflect:
✨ What part of myself do I try to hide from others?
✨ What might that part need from me today?

This gentle check-in can shift shame into compassion, and help you reconnect with yourself in deeper ways. 🌱

Scan your body. Where do you feel tension, butterflies, an ache, excitement, or numbness? Based on this, what do you need?

Look at your schedule. Can you build in rest? Don’t wait until all the chores are done—try placing rest before them, so you approach your checklist from a place of rejuvenation. You don’t have to earn rest.

Add in play. For adults, play is something we do with no end goal. It’s the kind of activity that makes us lose track of time and wish it didn’t have to end. How do you play?

Seek community. How can you be around people who encourage you and fill your cup? Is there a group you want to lean into—or one you need to create?

Feed your body. Nourishment is part of rejuvenation. You don’t need to earn your calories or your food. What does your body need to feel good today?

Make it a wonderful weekend, so you can begin the next week from a place of overflow.

Take a deep breath. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Take it one step at a time.

We’ve talked a lot about meeting basic needs here in previous posts. When you are able to create an environment for yourself, where these needs are met, you can go on to work on your mental and spiritual wellbeing. These all work together to produce a flourishing life. What part of this needs a little more focus in your life?
Can you give yourself some T.L.C.?
