7 Types of Rest Everyone Needs
Published on

Physical Rest:

This is needed for better health and mind. In addition to sleep, physical rest can include anything that helps restore your body.

Mental Rest:

Give your brain a break. People need mental rest when they are overwhelmed and struggle to shut off their thoughts.

Emotional Rest:

This involved being authentic and honest with your feelings. People need emotional rest when they get stuck in people-pleasing.

Social Rest:

This is about pursuing positive, energizing, and supportive connections. Or sometimes simply taking a break from socialisation altogether for a while.

Sensory Rest:

It’s about giving your senses a break. People need this when they overwhelm their senses with constant stimuli, be it food, watching shows, hearing to songs, etc.

Creative Rest:

You need this when you feel stuck, uninspired, and unable to develop new ideas or solutions to your problems. Try exposing yourself to artistic, nature-based, and innovative environments.

Spiritual Rest:

It involves connecting with something larger than yourself. People need this when they find themselves so caught up in their issues that they can’t see or connect with the bigger picture.
