The value of rest

The value of rest

“Most of the things we need to be most fully alive never come in busyness. They grow in rest.” ~Mark Buchanan

When I find myself needing healing, my innate tendency is to keep myself busy by working harder and harder. Inevitably, that approach ultimately backfires. All my work and busyness keep me away from the things that bring me most alive and slow my healing. It’s only when I allow myself to rest and nurture those things that bring to life that I move toward actual healing.
