Summary
What’s something that really helps you feel energized in the morning?
Do you ever give yourself a moment to reset during the day?
Today, Jay shares a powerful reminder, rest isn’t something you need to earn, it’s something you absolutely need. If you’ve ever felt guilty for taking a break or felt like you had to justify a vacation, this conversation challenges that mindset and offers a refreshing shift. Rest is not a luxury, it's the fuel for everything we do. Just like your phone needs to recharge, your body, mind, and soul require consistent, intentional recovery.
Jay offers simple, practical habits you can start using right away to feel more rested and centered. From scheduling micro-breaks throughout your day, trying out the box breathing method, to practicing the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique to bring yourself back to the moment, these tools are small shifts that can make a big difference. You’ll also be encouraged to create tech-free spaces, embrace short daily walks in nature, and carve out intentional pauses in your schedule.
In this episode, you'll learn:
How to Schedule Micro-Breaks Every 60–90 Minutes
How to Redefine Rest as a Need, Not a Reward
How to Release Guilt and Shame Around Taking Breaks
How to Hydrate and Refocus During Short Breaks
How to Reframe Rest as a Tool for Productivity and Creativity
Making space to breathe, reflect, and recover won’t just help you feel better, it will help you show up better, think clearer, and live more purposefully.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
