S1 Ep10: 7 Types of Rest You Didn’t Know You Needed (It’s Not Just Sleep!)
Embrace Your Sacred Nature
✨ Are you waking up tired, even after a full night’s sleep? Feeling emotionally drained, mentally foggy, or spiritually disconnected — and not sure why?
You’re not alone. In a world that glorifies hustle and celebrates being “busy,” many of us have forgotten what true rest even means. In today’s episode, Tania invites you to explore the deeper, more sacred dimension of rest — not just physical rest, but the seven types of rest that your soul, body, and heart truly need.
Drawing inspiration from Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith’s powerful book Sacred Rest, we’ll unpack why being well-rested is a spiritual practice — and how you can begin reclaiming rest in a holistic, nourishing way.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why 8 hours of sleep might still leave you tired
- The true purpose of rest (hint: it’s more than just energy recovery)
- A deep dive into the 7 types of rest: Physical, Mental, Emotional, Social, Sensory, Creative, Spiritual
- Practical rest tips you can apply right away
- The difference between being busy vs. productive
- How your spiritual path can also benefit from intentional rest
