Permission to Rest with Tamu Thomas

Well-being coach Tamu Thomas talks with Steph about toxic productivity and our inability to stop, the enormous energy we put in to keeping going to make us feel safe (including some classic Tamu quotes through the lyrics of Chumbawamba and Bananarama). Tamu recommends a 17 second practice to help slow your body and mind and ‘take in the good’. They also discuss every day joy, abandoning ourselves to care for others, the mental load and how to better communicate with a partner when you’re feeling overwhelmed and resentful. We’d love for you to subscribe and leave any feedback, and you can send voice notes and suggestions of anything you’d like discussed on the podcast.
