Great article! I also recently learned about the 7 Types of Rest and that’s been a great help!! I read a Ted Talk article about it by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith. You need mental rest, emotional rest, sensory rest (we work in loud environments under bright artificial lights and with bright screens and it wears on us), physical rest (not just sleep but also a massage or yoga or hot bath to relax ourselves physically), social rest (do you have someone in your life who doesn’t NEED things from you to spend time with?), spiritual rest, and creative rest. Since I focused on getting more of those types of rest I do feel better!
