Rest is not for the weak

Rest is not for the weak. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for the courageous. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for those who are here to do life differently. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s for those who no longer give in to the societal, cultural, familial conditioning that makes them disconnect from their bodies. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s for those who are deeply aligned with their truth.⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for leaders. Change-makers. Knowers. Seers of a new and conscious world.⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for those won’t succumb to labels and judgement of others.⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for those who are here to walk their own path. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s for those who’ve stepped into their power; those who can choose self-love and compassion over harshness and criticism. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is for those who’ve realised that without taking care of themselves, there will come a time when their reserves run low. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest if for those who are intentional. With themselves, others, and their life. They’re intentional with their energy and their time on this planet. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is beautiful. Rest is sacred. Rest is powerful. Rest will reveal and teach you things constantly ‘doing’ never will. No wonder resting scares people. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀

Letting yourself rest is not being lazy.⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Letting yourself rest is WISE.⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Letting yourself rest is not being unproductive. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s being ATTUNED to self. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Letting yourself rest is not a waste of time. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s the most incredible way of SELF-PRESERVATION. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Letting yourself rest is not wanting less. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

It’s knowing that you are worthy of RECEIVING even when you need rest. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Not being able to let yourself rest is not something to celebrate. It’s a sign of imbalance in your inner world that others can’t see. Do the inner work around what rest brings up for you instead of actively avoiding rest. ⠀

⠀

Your relationship with rest will reveal what you might not like to see about your upbringing. Be willing to see it anyway. Do you truly feel worthy of rest? ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Rest is nourishment. Rest is a necessity. You can literally die without rest. ⠀⠀

⠀⠀

Your body is wise. Choose rest while rest is still a choice. Honour yourself, even if it means to rebelliously choose rest over pushing, over-working, and over-extending.

⠀
