12: Take a Break: Using Stillness to Refresh & Restore
Nature reminds us that every season has a purpose—spring for new growth, summer for action, fall for reflection, and winter for rest. Yet, many of us fight against our natural rhythms, avoiding the stillness that invites us to recharge and reflect. Why do we resist the quiet moments, and what do they offer us when we finally embrace them?
In this episode, we’ll explore the gift of stillness, examine the fears that keep us from it, and surface the benefits of leaning into life’s quieter seasons. Join us to explore how relaxing into silence might boost your creativity, refresh your perspective, and help you come home to yourself.
