Ep. 54: How and Why to Rest Your Brain and Rest Your Body

Rest.  It's a popular topic today, especially in a world where we are often overwhelmed and overstimulated with work, with environmental stimuli, with people (or people-ing as my friend likes to say). Cherry Poon-Crowie joins me today to share with us what the seven types of rest are and why they make a powerful difference in our bodies, our emotions, and our mental state. We know we need to rest, but what if laying on the couch watching Netflix is not actually the rest our bodies need?  We may need sensory rest, physical rest, emotional rest, social rest, mental rest, creative rest or spiritual rest.  Walk through these types of rest with us and choose your top 3 that will be powerful in your life. And Cherry gives some great advice for helping people who are going through grief or trauma or major life events like a new baby. Check these out...If you love the idea of noise-cancelling earplugs that allow you some sensory and social rest like Cherry mentioned, check out Loop on Amazon.Make sure to connect with Cherry at @play.thrive.create.with.cherry and you can find her podcast, Bloom Narratives on Spotify as well.Find your glow with the Green-Gut-Glow-Plus at www.omgteachme.com/recommendations and all the podcast info, resources, book, and offers at www.omgteachme.com.  Find the GreenSynergy Elixir and Energy Fizz duo at cherylpfischer.com/greens.
