Rest is recalibration. Have you noticed the liberate in that word?

It gifts you time.

To be.

To process.

To reboot.

To explore.

It always surprises me how much more I can do after I have rested.

It’s also taken me a long time to be able to put into words what is restful for me. I have lived with more than 100 people now (sounds dramatic, but start counting family members, intimate relationships, and then sharemates) and found it natural to compare myself to those around me, which led me to judging and being harsh on myself for doing even resting ‘wrong’!!

Most people I’ve shared a living space with rest in very different ways to me. I’m a potterer. I love unscripted pottering. Solo. It’s a form of play for me, of rest and of meditation.

What’s yours?

Send me a sign if you fancy some tweaking to your current resting and/or pottering regime – or the opposite if you are ready to ramp things up work-wise. Your coach is ready, willing and able…
