Reposted from @drchristinacruz Do you ever feel guilty for sleeping in?⁣ ⁣ Or feel 'lazy' for taking a break?⁣ ⁣ If so, I get it. I grew up with a military father who believed sleeping in past 5 am was late.⁣ ⁣ But here's the thing, we are not machines. We are humans who are meant to oscillate between wakefulness and sleep. Activity and rest.⁣ ⁣ We literally HAVE TO sleep in order to survive. In order to be productive, functional humans.⁣ ⁣ Rest assured, (😉) our bodies are still working for us while we sleep. Our body repairs itself when we sleep. We process emotions and absorb what we learned when we slow down.⁣ ⁣ So, join me in prioritizing sleep and rest. Take naps when you can. Give yourself a much needed mental break. Disconnect so you can reconnect.⁣ ⁣ And remember, rest IS productive!⁣ ⁣ Tell me in the comments, do you take breaks throughout your day? How do you recharge?⁣ ⁣ #restisproductive #gotakeanap #sleepin #sleep #sleeptight #rest #restisbest #resttodestress #reducestress #nap #napping #restasresistance #healwhenyousleep #napministry #thenapministry #giveyourselfabreak #mentalbreak #selfhealing #selfrepair #abetteryou #selfcare #takecareofyourself⁣ - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/B8NdJFpgoeB/?igshid=uj6ktxi4vrdp
