A quick heads up, I recorded this episode thinking it'd lead the month of restorative practices, and then decided I'd rather give you a chance to experience the practices first, hence my sharing it at the end of the month. That said, there's no right or wrong order in this experiment!

The rotation of awareness practice can be useful when you need a rest but are short on time or would benefit from the structure that the practice offers!

This resting practice runs 11 minutes, finishing in an upright form to help you re-enter your day. Of course, you can skip that part if you want to rest longer! During the first 2 minutes of the episode, I explain the practice, which makes the recording 13 minutes in total.

Since most of us can use more rest, I truly hope this practice is helpful and that you can use it often in 2022!

Be moving, be resting, be you.

With big virtual hugs and thanks!
