In this episode, we chat about deep rest as a way to pause from perceived threats and recover from feelings of hyper vigilance and stress activation. Is deep rest what our bodies are crying out for when we feel exhausted and depressed? If so, how do we rest deeply when we are living with so much noise? Join us as we explore this topic and share ideas.

Quote: "Monarch butterflies don't fly when it rains, the raindrops will damage their wings. They will rest and wait it out. This is self preservation. It's okay to rest during the storms of your life- take all the time you need. You will take flight again once the storm passes."
