💫 The 7 Types of Rest We All Need

Rest isn’t just about sleep — it’s about restoration. Here are the 7 kinds of rest your mind, body, and soul crave:

🧠 Mental Rest: Quiet your racing thoughts. Step away from constant stimulation.

🧍‍♀️ Physical Rest: Relax those muscles and let your body reset — whether it’s sleep, stretching, or stillness.

🗣️ Social Rest: Spend time with people who refuel you, not drain you.

🎨 Creative Rest: Give yourself space to be inspired by beauty, nature, and art.

💞 Emotional Rest: Release the need to please. Honor your true feelings.

🙏 Spiritual Rest: Connect to something greater — through prayer, meditation, or purpose.

🔇 Sensory Rest: Unplug from noise, screens, and sensory overload. Find quiet moments to simply be.

🌿 True rest restores every part of you — not just your body. Which type do you need most right now?

Supervision isn’t just for pre-licensed clinicians.
If you’re already licensed and supervising others, you still carry clinical, ethical, and legal responsibility for the work done under your guidance. Ongoing supervision (or consultation) helps you stay sharp, grounded, and aware of blind spots as you grow into leadership roles.
Let’s talk about it:

Is supervision still needed once you’re licensed?
Is it really “supervision” or is it “consultation”?
What support do supervisors need to feel confident, not just competent?
Drop a “SUPERVISE” in the comments if you’re a supervisor (or aspiring one) who wants a safe, thoughtful space to keep growing.

There is a quiet rebellion happening over here in my neck of the woods (so to speak). Last year, on March 10, a colleague and I created an entire campaign around National Day of Rest for Black Women. We planned a full day centered on self-care and spending time in spaces intentionally cultivated for Black wellness.

This year… not so much.

In fact, I am doing absolutely nothing other than allowing the day to be ordinary.

Why?

Because unless you are strategic about cultivating rest, many of us are simply recreating exhaustion in prettier settings. We schedule the massage, attend the brunch, show up to the wellness event and somehow we are still performing. Real rest, I’m learning, is quieter than that. I don’t need to post pictures for the ‘gram nor make announcements about my rest. I’m simply doing it.

But if you are intentional and strategic about making today all about you, here are 5 ways to make today meaningful and sustainable.

Here are 5 ways to make today meaningful and sustainable:

1. Don’t make this a one-day event.
Rest cannot be an annual holiday. If we are serious about wellness, this practice has to be built into our lives monthly, weekly, even daily.
2. Protect unscheduled time.
Leave space in your day where nothing is expected of you—no productivity, no caregiving, no emotional labor.
3. Choose restoration over performance.
Rest doesn’t have to be curated, aesthetic, or Instagram-worthy. Sometimes it is simply staying home, turning off notifications, and allowing your nervous system to settle.
4. Step away from spaces that drain you.
Meaningful rest often requires boundaries such as declining invitations, limiting work conversations, and disengaging from environments that keep you in “push-through” mode.
5.Let rest be strategic, not reactive.
Sustainable rest means planning your life in a way that protects your energy before burnout shows up—not after.

Because the real goal ‘flex’ isn’t just a day of rest for Black women.
It’s building a life where rest is normalized, protected, and sustainable. You know…allowing our nervous systems to rest and rest.

It’s natural to feel uncertain at times. Uncertainty is often part of growth, transition, and stepping into something new. But uncertainty does not mean you are incapable. It simply means you are moving beyond what is familiar. Yet It still amazes me how Black women can be so confident and bold in so many areas in which we operate...until it comes to how we see and feel about ourselves. The colonizers have done a job on us!

Systems built during colonization and slavery often reduced Black women to labor, endurance, and sacrifice measuring worth by how much we could carry rather than how fully we could live. That legacy still echoes today. But your worth has never been defined by how much you can endure.

Do not allow doubt to convince you to stop when you are being called to move forward. Trust the work you have done, the lessons you have learned, and the strength that has carried you this far.

Believe in yourself.
You can do it.

Eventually many people arrive in therapy with a quiet realization:

“I’ve become very good at functioning… but I’m not sure all the parts of me have been allowed to exist in the same room.”

In my work with leaders, clinicians, and high-achieving professionals, the goal is rarely to eliminate compartmentalization.

Some degree of it is necessary.

The deeper work is learning how to create safe spaces where those compartments can begin to speak to each other.

Because integration—not endless containment—is where healing and sustainable leadership begin.

I’m curious:

Where in your life have you had to compartmentalize in order to keep moving forward?

Next up…an exercise to inspire you to heal

“I just keep pushing through...”

I hear this several times a week in my sessions with Black women followed by...”well, what else am I supposed to do.”

Black women are often celebrated for our ability to push through anything.

But as a psychologist, I see the hidden cost of that narrative every day.

Pushing through grief.
Pushing through burnout.
Pushing through impossible expectations.

Over time, the nervous system begins to carry the weight of that constant endurance.

Strength is not just the ability to keep going.

Sometimes strength is the wisdom to pause, rest, and restore.

The only time I want to hear us pushing through is at the gym! 💪🏽

Today’s reminder:
You do not have to earn rest by first exhausting yourself.

Reflection:
When was the last time you gave yourself permission to stop pushing?

If you find that a struggle, it may be just the time to talk with a therapist. We hold space for those kinds of conversation! ☕️

For Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we must disrupt the dangerous myth that eating disorders are a “thin, white woman’s illness.” Research consistently shows that Black women engage in binge eating and other disordered eating behaviors at rates comparable to white women, yet they are significantly less likely to be diagnosed, referred, or receive early intervention. When Kerry Washington shared her history of bingeing, secrecy, and body shame in her memoir Thicker Than Water, she helped expand a narrative that has long excluded high-achieving Black women who suffer in silence. Disordered eating in our community often sits at the intersection of trauma, perfectionism, racial stress, and the pressure to be strong — and it does not always present as restriction or low body weight. This week is a call to screen better, listen deeper, and create culturally responsive pathways to care.

A pre licensed clinician told me she wants a new supervisor.

Her current one is “cool”… but she’s not growing and is frustrated. She feels behind her peers who really enjoy their supervision .

She’s afraid to say anything.

Here’s what I told her:

Supervision is not just about feeling comfortable. It’s about development.

Before you leave, ask yourself:

What does “not growing” actually mean?

Am I avoiding this conversation because of authority discomfort?

Have I clearly asked for stretch, feedback, and structure?

Sometimes the growth isn’t in changing supervisors.

Sometimes the growth is in using your professional voice.

And if the supervisor can’t handle that conversation?

That’s data. Have you experienced a similar dilemma?

It’s a blizzard outside! 🌨️⛄️ What are you doing? I hope you’re building your Sunday reset for the week ahead.

You don’t need a new planner.📖
You need a protected nervous system.🧠

Not just planning.

Designing.

High-achieving women don’t burn out from ambition.
We burn out from unprotected calendars.

This week I’m protecting:
• Revenue hours
• Gym mornings
• CEO time with God
• Deep work
• Visibility
• Evenings

Because I don’t scale at the expense of my nervous system.

CEO energy isn’t loud.

It’s aligned.
It’s structured.
It’s regulated.

While the snow falls, take 30 minutes and reset your week like the architect you are.

Save this.
Comment “Reset” if you’re protecting your energy this week.
