About this episode
Hey loves, welcome back to The Habit Within. In this episode, I'm coming to you from Puerto Morelos, Mexico—on a trip that unexpectedly became one of the most restful experiences I’ve ever had with my family. And it inspired today’s topic: the habit of rest.
Rest hasn’t always come easy to me. But over time, I’ve learned that rest is more than just not working—it's about allowing your body and nervous system to truly be. In this episode, I share how I moved from resisting rest to welcoming it as a healing, essential part of my everyday rhythm.
Together we’ll explore:
- Why rest is not a luxury—it’s a requirement for vitality
- How your body remembers rest just like it remembers stress
- The idea of creating a “rest cue” or ritual to train your body to relax
- 5 simple, powerful ways to weave rest into your daily life (without booking a trip)
- How stillness supports your creativity, relationships, and healing
- The importance of labeling rest while you’re in it so your body remembers how to return
Plus, I share some personal reflections from years of returning to the same resort, and how my body began to associate it with deep relaxation. And the best part? You don’t have to fly to Mexico to access this feeling.
