Your Mind Knows How to Sleep

Sleep problems are often caused by an overactive mind, not the body. Guided sleep hypnosis helps calm mental noise and allows the nervous system to relax naturally.

Many people find that listening to gentle sleep-focused audio before bed improves sleep quality without medication.

Today, AI-powered tools can generate custom sleep hypnotherapy audio based on your habits and preferences — and some are completely free to use. You can learn more here: 👉 https://ai-hypno.com/en/home

Let today be soft.

You’ve made it through the week.

Breathe. Reflect. Begin again gently. 🌼

There is no award for pushing through everything.

But there is peace in choosing softness.

FEELING SORRY FOR ONE'S SELF

It is an emotion. Humans are emotional beings.

Is it ok to feel sorry for yourself? Yes, it is. It is an emotion. Humans are emotional beings. It is better to look at it as taking a step back, resting and taking stock of things. It is important to recognize this state of one’s self, to be able to come out of it quickly, to bounce back stronger and better than ever before, moving forward. ~ ALAN IAN ATKINSONWriter, Author,…

Taking this day to sleep in, chill out while running errands, and taking it very slow. Sometimes you need to remember to take a mental day off. It’s nice to be out during some Sunshine.

Rest and Exercise

Although it’s important for us to exercise, we must remember to take rest. Exercise is addictive, once we start, we want more.

But exercise like everything else must be taken in moderation. Too much exercise can work against us and without rest can have catastrophic effects, such as increased susceptibility to colds and infections and weight loss. Rest days and recovery are important and necessary as part of any training programme.

When starting a new fitness regime, we’re told it’s important to take rest days between workouts. Substandard performances will be inevitable if we fail to rest. However proficient we are, we need to allow the body’s muscles to recover from any damage they may have sustained through training.

Although we think we’re being careful, with repeated exercise it is easy to sustain injury without us even thinking we have. Muscles must recover and grow.

Rest days do play an important role in helping us maintain our fitness and good health. Most studies indicate that rest and recovery between workouts are necessary for helping the body adapt and recuperate from the last workouts.

Exercise requires us to use our body’s energy stores and fluids, so rest and recovery give the body time to replenish these energy stores. Several studies have shown that the body needs at least 24 hours to fully replace our muscle’s store of carbohydrates.

Maintaining an adequate store of our body’s carbohydrate, is important for training and maintaining stable blood sugar levels. However, less time is required to recover our fluids.

Studies have found it takes only around one to two hours to replace fluids lost as sweat during exercise. But bodies still require several hours of rest following exercise to maintain hydration, due to the continued production of urine.

Training may also damage the body’s tissues. In order for muscle to recover and improve they require several weeks of cycles of exercise and recovery. Research shows our bodies require a longer rest period in order to build muscle tissue.

This morning, I asked the cards "What do I focus on today?" I drew the 7 of Wands, the 4 of Swords and the Page of Wands from The Slow Tarot. What gorgeous cards for today! 💫 The 7 of Wands shows a young man and he is clutching a ladder. The sky behind him is full of sunlit clouds and the sky looks like is is full of fire. He wears a look of determination on his face as he makes his way upward. This card is all about making haste and changing direction. Leaving behind a difficult situation is sometimes the only thing you can do. This card is letting me know that it's okay to walk away from a situation that isn't kind to my spirit. Though it may hurt to do so, sometimes it's the only outcome. 💫 The 4 of Swords shows a young woman. She is lying under the stars that hang off of four Swords. I love this card, the rocks and the land around her and the galaxy above her. This card is a mental break, a pause in the noise of the mind. I have to just embrace the calm and the serenity that this card brings and realize that sometimes it easier to just take a mental pause than to continue worrying. 💫 The Page of Wands stands with his Wand, a smile on his face. A fire is lit behind him and the sky is bright with the setting sun. He's kind hearted and enthusiastic, always looking at things with joy in his heart. There is pride here and so much light. The pride comes from the fire he has just himself and the joy comes from what wonderful things the fire will show him in the dark. 💫 I love these cards. They show a strength of spirit and mind that is much needed during this time. Awesome! 💫 #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarottribe #theslowtarot #determination #mentalrest #prideandjoy #sparkleon #shinebright #likeadiamond #cardoftheday https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fA7XzHhvC/?igshid=qs49tsm6k72z

Something I've learned the hard way... more than once.. is the importance of rest and recovery for any type of performance. Physical performance, athletic performance and mental performance. After experiencing burn out & subsequent health issues, I learned a LOT about rest and recovery. In the today's #hustle lifestyle, it can be hard to remember to rest. Being busy is worn as a badge of honor especially when you're new to your career or own your own business. While I can appreciate the hustle, I have also learned how important the rest piece is. My whole business is built around helping you feel GOOD in your body. In order to feel good, you have to treat your body good. #allaboutthatgoodgood The building blocks of recovery: 1. Hydration: whenever I'm dehydrated, I revert to being sluggish, cranky & flat out useless. 2. Nourish your body: proper nutrition can fuel your body, mind and soul 3. Sleep!! Sleep is when your body actually regenerates. Do not underestimate the value of a good night's sleep. 4. #mentalrest: Its important to unplug mentally sometimes and give your brain some time to rest. What are some of your favorite ways to rest & recover? #livegoodfeelgood #livegood #feelgood #restisin https://www.instagram.com/p/B8FY7xLgMG3/?igshid=b6wyh0z6mxun
