We’re often told we’re “burnt out” because we’re not sleeping enough.

But sleep is only one kind of rest.

If you’ve ever:
• slept 8 hours and still felt exhausted
• taken time off but returned feeling the same
• tried to “rest” and felt restless or guilty.

…it might be because the type of rest you need isn’t the one you’re giving yourself.

There are many kinds of rest—emotional, mental, sensory, social, creative, physical, and spiritual—and each one restores a different part of you.

Burnout doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It often means you’ve been strong in one area for too long without support in another.

As you swipe through these slides, notice:
✨ which type of rest feels unfamiliar
✨ which one you’ve been avoiding
✨ which one your body has been quietly asking for

Rest isn’t a reward.
It’s a requirement for being human.
Save this for later, or share it with someone who needs permission to rest differently

At Juniper Counselling, we often say that therapy is a journey—not a quick fix. One of the most common questions we hear is, “How often should I come?” or “How long will this take?” The answer depends on a few personal factors, but there’s one thing that research and experience agree on: consistency matters.

Why Consistency Counts
Therapy works best when it’s a regular, ongoing process. Much like going to the gym or learning a new language, real change happens over time with repetition, practice, and commitment. Showing up consistently—especially early on—helps to:

Build trust and connection with your therapist

Maintain momentum between sessions

Develop and reinforce coping skills before life throws another curveball

Work through deeper issues layer by layer, rather than just reacting to crises

It’s natural to want quick results, but emotional healing doesn’t always follow a straight path. Consistency creates the structure and space needed for meaningful, lasting growth.

Consistency doesn’t mean perfect. It means staying engaged, being honest about where you’re at, and making your emotional well-being a priority—week by week.

Ready to Begin?
Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after time away, Juniper Counselling offers a safe, welcoming space to do the work. Let’s build something lasting—together. Book a free consultation today!
