When Rest Feel Unfamiliar

Rest is supposed to feel natural, but for many of us .... it doesn't. It feels uncomfortable, foreign, almost wrong because we weren't raised on softness. We were raised on functioning.

I've spent years moving so fast that slowing down felt like failure. I associated rest with laziness instead of healing. I didn't know how to sit still without my mind telling me I should be doing more. At this part of my journey, I've learned that rest is a form of self-respect. A moment to reclaim space within yourself.

I'm becoming the woman who knows she must listen to her body, who allows stillness to strengthen her instead of shaming her. If rest feels unfamiliar to you.... it's okay. You're relearning peace. Take your time... just don't take too long!

Until the next page... KEEP BECOMING!
