And just like that the Spring edition of the 14-Day Radical Rest Challenge is complete ✅ Let me be the first to say that "complete" looks different for each of us, and it's clearer to me now that 14 days may be "a bit much" to start. 😅 Happily accepting feedback and ideas! While the challenge technically ended last week on Thursday, April 2nd, I was in the dance of Spring Break and participating in a global certification program, which meant early mornings and late nights. One thing is for sure, I slept deeply. 😴 What I know for sure is that I'm grateful for the reset to focus on my rest need 🫶🏽 I'm curious, @Fi K and @Stacy Casson, any final reflections that you'd like to share? The good news 🗞️ our first weekly Radical Rest Live Session kicks off THIS Friday, April 10th! You can add it to your calendar here 🗓️ So we can end the week blooming into liberation 🌻

This week I facilitated a session on work boundaries for a team of veteran educators. 🍎 So much wisdom in the room and they definitely kept me on my toes. 😅 The boundary strategy I enjoyed sharing with them most was "Positive No." “A ‘No’ uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a ‘Yes’ merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble.” — Mahatma Gandhi In other words, what do you need to say no to, so you can say yes to what you really need/want? For example, I would have loved another chill day at home, which I said no to, so I could say yes to experiencing a new-to-me Bay Area trail that led to the the view below. 😍 Totally worth it!

A peek inside my digital journey today as I reflect on... 1. The prompt for my Rest Need that I was reminded of on the Quiz Results & Micro Practice page 2. The Day 2 reflection prompt What will shift in my life when I practice body rest more consistently is: - ongoing nervous system regulation  - Not feeling end-of-day and week exhaustion - Waking up feeling rested How is time scarcity impacting your ability to rest right now? Time scarcity shows up in my thoughts—reminding me of all the things I can be doing. Instead, I have to remind myself that I deserve rest. This is my time to rest and fill up my cup. There’s nothing scheduled today for a reason. And so, I’m choosing to affirm: Everything I want to get done will be at the aligned time. It’s after 3 pm and I’m now taking the time to reflect and document a day of rest while acknowledging that de-conditioning time scarcity continues to be a practice. 🙃 Let's start a conversation about how time scarcity shows up for you 👇🏽
