In this episode of the Highly Sensitive and Strong Podcast, we explore why rest isn’t just a luxury—it’s a powerful, necessary part of healing for highly sensitive people.
If you’ve ever struggled to slow down, felt guilty for resting, or found yourself scrolling instead of truly relaxing, you’re not alone.
In this episode, we’ll unpack:
Why rest is hard (even when you’re exhausted)
How chronic stress and hustle culture train us to resist stillness
The sneaky ways distraction pulls us away from real rest
How to start building a healthier, more compassionate relationship with rest
You don’t have to earn your rest. You don’t have to prove your exhaustion to deserve it. You are worthy of deep care—right now.
