Not all rest is created equal, and if you feel like you’ve been doing all the “right” things when it comes to slowing down but still feel exhausted, this episode will provide you with the missing piece.

Today, I’m diving into a different way to think about rest, and one that goes beyond just sleep or taking time off in the form of a holiday or spending an evening in front of the TV.

Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith developed a framework that breaks down the multiple types of rest your body and mind may be craving, and in this episode, I explore each of them to help you understand your fatigue in a new way and gain a fresh perspective on recovery that’s grounded in nervous system healing.

I’ll unpack why physical rest alone isn’t always enough, especially if you’re feeling chronically depleted, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns of burnout. I’ll also guide you through some questions to help you tune into your real needs and begin to shift from survival mode into deeper replenishment.
