The Rest Factor: The Connection Between Rest and Resilience in Fitness, Yoga, and Wellness
In this episode, Ruby & Kate explore how rest is crucial for resilience and long-term wellbeing in the fitness, yoga, and wellness (FYW) industry. Rest isn't just about doing nothing; it's about actively rejuvenating and remaining connected to yourself and others even through adversity.
Key Takeaways:
- Resilience involves staying connected to yourself and others, and healing happens through purposeful rest and communal support.
- Question the industry’s narratives around rest—"no pain, no gain" and "active rest" often reinforce burnout. Explore rest as something that truly rejuvenates.
- Set sustainable practices in your career by establishing personal rules for rest and boundaries that align with your values.
