Description

In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring podcast, I tackle the common misconception that rest only counts if you're asleep, napping, or doing nothing. Inspired by Dr. Sandra Dalton-Smith's book, titled Sacred Rest, I introduce several often-overlooked types of rest and offer practical examples of how you can start practicing them. Join me as I explore how different forms of rest can restore your mind, emotions, relationships, and more, especially for first-gen students, including college and grad students. Stick around till the end for reflective questions that can help you identify the type of rest you need most right now.
