Thank you! In fact I'm forced to rest as I'm having severe back pain as well as an aching left foot. Maybe the universe is trying to give me a message? 😊

Intentional rest is am important as sleep and food to fuel your body. Without carving out time for a slow start to the day, I am less patient, struggle to problem solve, and my creativity goes out the window. I have discovered what my 'must haves' are to get done before bed so that I can gift myself this space every morning.

Brilliantly put - with this social media frenzy where everything and anything is thrown at us to be better busier and the best, it’s so refreshing to have the reassurance with your words to take moments of intentional rest and to gather oneself for the good of oneself.x

You have my permission (not that you need it!) to take all the intentional rest you need! X
