Resetting for 2026: Evidence-Backed Rest, My Practices, and Spotify Wrapped Reflections
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As the year turns, this episode is an invitation to slow down instead of speed up.
In a culture that treats January like a starting gun, I’m choosing a different approach to resetting for 2026—one rooted in evidence-backed rest, intentional recovery, and spiritual grounding, rather than pressure or hustle.
In this episode:
- Why rest and recovery are foundational, when entering a new year
- What research actually says about rest, nervous system regulation, and sustainable performance
- The specific rest practices I’m using to reset mentally, physically, and emotionally
- How spirituality is guiding my intentions for 2026
- Reflections from my Spotify Wrapped— thank you!
Whether you’re feeling burnt out, unmotivated, or simply craving a gentler start, this episode offers permission to begin the year rested, regulated, and rooted.
If this episode resonates, consider sharing it with someone who needs a reminder that rest is productive.
As always, thank you so much for listening this year 🤍 I couldn't do it without you!
