This is why you can find yourself feeling resentful to those you give to and craving time without them, or without anyone at all. Remember, people can’t take what you won’t give. Make conscious decisions around what / when / how you will give and follow through on them. We want to ditch always giving for conscious giving. Be sure to also let others pour in to you and expand your capacity to receive. Others can’t give you what you aren’t open to receive.That’s not all, we created Rest Week for YOU to come learn how to rest, be in a room that truly celebrates rest, and leave you feeling nourished, peaceful and….

You feel like you’re not contributing and that is draining your spiritual energy.First thing you should know: you ARE making a difference already. Find how that’s true. There’s no hierarchy everything counts, from feeding your pet to smiling at the cashier at Target. And look for community, connect to others with similar values.

Sensory

We live in a world very different to the one our brains evolved in. Surrounded by lights, noise, we are always contactable and your brain is overstimulated. This has shown itself in headaches, ringing in your ears, and becoming easily agitated when you don’t mean to.What we want is a sensory detox. This doesn’t have to be long, but finding a few minutes even in your day to cut off tech, be in the dark (that can be closing your eyes) and of course spending time in nature.

6.

Emotional

You feel like you can’t express your emotions and find yourself fighting with them, hiding them, resisting them and this is creating emotional exhaustion. It’s like a pressure cooker that explodes into emotional outbursts because we can’t turn our emotions off. Hiding parts of yourself will also negatively impact your connection to others and leave you feeling distanced from the people around you. Whether you do it intentionally or your body does it for you at some point your emotions will come out, so do it on your terms. You can start with allocating 5 minutes to practice feeling your feelings (I have a podcast episode that talks you through this click here to listen)Build a simple practice around this. Also start to talk about your feelings and share with people. Remember all humans experience emotions there’s nothing you experience that others don’t, that’s why all our emotions have names!That’s not all, we created Rest Week for YOU to come learn how to rest, be in a room that truly celebrates rest, and leave you feeling nourished, peaceful and….

7.

Creative

You are experiencing creative burnout. This is why you are consuming more than you are creating, finding it challenging to be creative and even make decisions and comparing yourself to others unfavorably. You’re spending more time out of your own creative self and in other people’s creativity.To reinvigorate your creativity you want to take creative rest. This means cut consumption down, it doesn’t have to be drastic but pick one thing to cut. And then take moments in your day to pause and be present on purpose. This can be as simple as looking up to the sky and taking a deep breath. Or taking your shoes off and standing on the grass barefoot.That’s not all, we created Rest Week for YOU to come learn how to rest, be in a room that truly celebrates rest, and leave you feeling nourished, peaceful and….
