Feminist Wellness Ep #372: Reclaim Rest: How to Rest When It Feels Unsafe (Part 2)
#372: What if the reason rest feels so hard isn’t because you’re bad at it, but because your body has learned that rest is unsafe? What if slowing down doesn’t feel peaceful, but instead sparks anxiety, guilt, or that crawling-out-of-your-skin feeling?
In this episode, I get into the real, practical side of rest, especially for those of us whose nervous systems have been shaped by emotional outsourcing. Last week, we explored why rest feels threatening. Now we’re focusing on how to actually rest in real life, when your body resists it. Because knowing you need rest and knowing how to rest are two completely different skills.
Tune in this week to learn how to identify the type of rest your body actually needs, from physical and sensory to emotional and spiritual rest, and how to meet yourself there with small, doable practices. I’ll also walk you through what to do when rest brings up anxiety, guilt, or fear, and how to work with your nervous system so rest can start to feel safe, supportive, and truly restorative.
