Admittedly I’m terrible at taking time off and allowing myself to rest. I know rest is healthy but it’s not something I’m good at, especially when I’m feeling overwhelmed, I tend to add more to plate (mentally, physically and emotionally), like it’ll cover and mask everything else up.
So today, I thought it would be beneficial to remind ourselves that it’s okay to rest. In fact, it’s necessary and since I’m girl who loves a good motivational quote, here are four to help motivate you (and myself) to rest.

When was the last time you let yourself rest?
Lovely post! Why do we need this reminder so often?

This is such a needed post for me!
I used to be so good at this, I need to get back to it!
I love these quotes so much–that last one in particular. It’s funny, how we feel so disconnected when we remove ourselves from social media/technology… but it’s absolutely essential to our wellbeing to just be and live in the moment.
Thank you for this!

LOVE this! My favorite was the one about how we carry the load. So true!
I struggle with this lately especially now that I am trying to get this blog off the ground. I have to keep reminding myself it’s okay to break.
I am really struggling with this right now. I work from home, so the list of what I could (and feel like I should) be doing never ends. I never accomplish everything I want to in the day and feel like I should keep working until I do. I started to hit burnout levels last night and I know something’s got to change. I just don’t know what or how yet.

Love this! I think it’s so important and I think it’s something our culture brushes off and doesn’t find necessary!
