I'm excited! Sounds like a full day of fun. Just remember to include accessible activities for those of us who can't go river rafting or climb stairs.
Need a quick nervous system reset instead of another coffee? 😴⚡
♥️💚 What happens when you choose rest before your body has to force it? 🤩 Today we played with Flow-State Deep Rest — FSDR, from Jamie Wheal. 💥 Think of it like a 20-minute pit stop for your body: not quite a nap, not another push-through, but a clean breath-centered reset when the day starts dragging. 🚀 Basic flow: 1. Lie down and do 20 quick “birthday candle” breaths 🎂 2. Exhale, hug knees to chest, hold briefly 3. Repeat the breaths, then inhale and move into happy baby 👶 4. Shift into vagal breathing: inhale about 4, long hum-exhale about 10, pause 2 🐝 5. Massage the face, jaw, eyes, and forehead 6. Rest on your back and let the breath become a wave 🌊 7. Gently return and get on with your day Try it when you hit that afternoon slump.
