Rest as Resistance
Why inner peace is the work

A Transformative Tuesday Reflection
Hello Glow-Getter,
Today’s Transformative Tuesday invites a slower, steadier way of looking at rest.
Many of us learned—directly or indirectly—that rest is something you earn after exhaustion. After productivity. After proving your worth.
But what if rest isn’t a reward at all?
What if it’s how clarity returns.
How emotional steadiness is restored.
How you stay connected to the work and people you care about—without burning yourself out.
This morning’s blog explores rest as resistance. Not resistance in the loud or confrontational sense, but resistance to constant urgency. To chronic pressure. To the belief that slowing down means falling behind.
When the nervous system never feels safe enough to pause, even meaningful work can feel overwhelming. That’s not a personal failure. It’s a signal.
Inside today’s reflection, we talk about how inner peace isn’t passive—it’s protective. And why choosing rest can actually help you show up more consistently, clearly, and compassionately.
The full blog is live now, and you’re invited to read it at your own pace.
If this reflection resonates and you’d like to anchor it more intentionally, there are supportive resources available—always at your own pace.
