The 7 types of rest

What if there was more than one type of rest?

I recently came across this idea from Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith in her book Sacred Rest, and it makes so much sense.

I've had many conversations with clients about how they feel exhausted even when they sleep a solid 8 hours per night. Or about how they don't feel truly recharged after a few days off.

I believe that it's possible to be physically rested, but emotionally drained. Or mentally recharged but socially exhausted.

Have a look at 7 types of rest:

  • Physical
  • Mental
  • Emotional
  • Sensory
  • Creative
  • Social
  • Spiritual

I detail the different ways you can nurture them in this week's episode of the podcast <3
