Easy like Sunday Morning

Confession: I’m a recovering workaholic. Whether it’s climbing the corporate ladder, creating passion projects, or chasing finish lines at races, for as long as I can remember, I’ve been go-go-go. And while all of these things fulfill my heart, I’ve always battled with giving myself permission to rest, and when I don’t, I’ve fallen flat on my face. But through the years, I’ve learned that rest is just as productive and essential as pushing the needle forward— and mastering it is a key to longevity and preventing burnout.

After reading “The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry” I had a serious heart-change around my perception of rest and stillness. I realized that the busier we are, the harder it is to hear our inner voice, and most importantly, God’s voice. Sometimes you just gotta hard-stop everything, turn the phone off, and CHILL.

Now, I really try to have at least one day a week that is routine-free and rests my soul. I’m not perfect at it, but the intention is what counts. On these days, I let the day unravel as it’s meant to. I throw routine out the window and listen to whatever my heart is asking for, whether it’s a four hour nap or moose tracks ice cream.

This is what showing up for my wellness looked like today. What’s one small way you showed up for yourself this weekend? 🤍
