Spinny Brain, Do-Nothing Days & the Art of Rest

from Jenni Tooley Presents · host Jenni Tooley

Hi darlin! I’m coming at you from under a pile of cats and cosmic thoughts. Sunny and Toast are supervising while my brain goes spinny-spinny. Somewhere between “I don’t have cancer anymore” and “why is resting harder than chemo?” I realized I might actually need to relearn how to stop. Like full stop, stop.Where I went with the spinnies:🧘‍♀️ How I figured out how to “do nothing”💀 The exhaustion that lingers long after survival mode ends🐾 Lessons in rest from my animal companions🎬 Double-feature therapy: how movie marathons became my church💗 The rebellion of aligning with natural rhythms when the world’s still sprintingWhat got unwound: Sometimes I confuse exhaustion with achievement, but burnout doesn’t hand out trophies.What you might try: Maybe — after you take a listen— just… rest. Close your eyes. Breathe. Don’t even try to meditate. Just be.Would love to hear what landed!If you aren’t already there, you can find us at www.jennitooley.comTip jar lives here.Or you can become a paid subscriber to keep the spinnies in motion at on my website!Until next time!Jenni Get full access to w/Jenni Tooley at www.jennitooley.com/subscribe
