1808: Rest When You're Sick

from Calmer in 5 · host Thom Walters

When you're sick, does resting come naturally, or do you find yourself feeling guilty about everything you aren't getting done? Today's episode invites you to set aside the pressure to be productive and listen kindly to what your body is asking for. Giving yourself permission to pause is an act of self-compassion. Let's explore how allowing yourself to rest, without judgment or a running tally of unfinished tasks, can bring a little more calm to a day when you aren't feeling your best.
