As a mom, I used to think rest = laziness.
If I wasn’t checking something off my to-do list, I felt like I was falling behind.
But here’s the truth: my body wasn’t getting stronger from the workouts I was doing. It was getting stronger from the recovery I refused to give it.
The same goes for healing. Your core, your pelvic floor, your energy… none of it rebuilds without rest.
So no — you’re not lazy for needing a break. You’re human.
And sometimes the most productive thing you can do is stop hustling and let your body reset.
👉 Save this for the next time you feel guilty about resting.
