Have You Been Resting?

When I thought about writing this article I thought about sharing how I took a week off to do nothing but rest and share the benefits of resting.

As I sit in my bed, post labor day weekend with vapor rub on my nose, chest, feet, and in my onesie. I thought about the constant question that has been asked me over and over and over again.

That question is: HAVE YOU BEEN RESTING?

And in all honesty, I truly don't know. I thought I was. According to my current position not. I have been evaluating my weekly routine to see how can I live more intentionally and create more crowning moments in life.

Here's what I do know :

-My team of accountability partners would not allow me to constantly give and give and give (they hold me accountable when it comes to resting)

-I cannot be living my best life while being too tired or sick to even enjoy it

-I cannot fulfill the promise that God has for me if I am not resting properly

-I cannot create crowning moments in any aspect of life if I am not resting properly

and neither can YOU

How can we show up for our family, friends, careers, and purpose if we are not resting

You CAN'T and if you do, you're pouring from your cup and not your saucer!

The world is waiting for our arrival and we must make our entrance grand!

But we cannot show up beat down and tired, we must show up

(insert queen to be the picture here)

Kings and Queens do yourself a favor and take some time to rest, even Jesus took time to rest, what makes us thinks we shouldn't?

REST

Relaxing in EASE, STILLNESS, AND TRANQUILITY

Ask yourself the following questions:

When was the last time I rested?

What does resting look like for me?

Ideas for resting:

Take a hot bath

Read a book

Sit in silence

Journal

Listen to meditation music

Go get a massage

As we continue to crown the world with jewels of knowledge and wisdom, I desire that you take some time to relax and rest.

Stay Crowned Kings and Queens
