Rest is often overlooked as a crucial component of well-being, be it due to societal or internal expectations. So, this week on Doing Well: The Wellbeing Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella interviews internal medicine physician Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith.

Also a work-life integration researcher, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith is the founder of the professional development agency Restorasis. The firm is dedicated to restoring well-being in the workplace through its proprietary framework, to help companies support their employees with work-life integration and burnout prevention approaches. Most of all, as a busy physician, author, and mom, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith has a first-hand understanding of life’s overwhelming demands that lead to emotional depletion and physical fatigue.

In this episode, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith reveals some common misconceptions about well-being and burnout, elaborating on the role of rest in cognitive function and performance. Additionally, she sheds light on the medical perspective of how the body benefits from adequate rest.

Together, Marie and Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith canvass various habits that may prove effective in ensuring sufficient rest on a day-to-day basis. So, tune in this week as we challenge the notion of productivity as the ultimate measure of success, and embrace the importance of rest in our lives!
