Rest + Recovery are the foundation to building strength.
It’s taken me too long to understand that in my bones. I get the science. But my mind, has had a hard time grasping that rest doesn’t need to be earned.
It’s necessary.
Non-negotiable.
We can’t pour from an empty cup. So take a timeout, listen to the birds outside, go for a stroll, or put on some music and let your mind wander into a daydream.
It doesn’t need to be go go go
all the time.
While you’re busy doing all the things, taking care of business, family, crushing those fitness goals, etc. please don’t put yourself, your rest + recovery, at the bottom of that list.
If nothing else, commit to one, five minute habit, daily, that pours back into YOU.
The world can wait.
