  We equate “rest” with “sleep”. However, there are times when we feel tired despite getting sufficient sleep. This article gives us an insight that we perhaps, are in need of some more rest than just physical.

  It speaks of 7 types of rest-
  Physical rest- which can be active or passive, like yoga and sleeping, respectively.

  Mental rest- short breaks throughout the day to rest your mind

  Sensory rest- intentional deprivation from sensations

  Creative rest- achieved by appreciating nature and arts more often

  Emotional rest- achieved by being authentic to our emotions and cutting back on people- pleasing habits

  Social rest- achieved by surrounding ourselves with supportive, positive people

  Spiritual rest- our ability to go beyond the superficiality and connect with love, belongingness and acceptance
