Burn out culture tells you to keep going.
Even when you’re tired. Even when you’re running on empty.

Maybe you don’t need to push harder. Maybe you need to pause.

Rest is not weakness. It’s wisdom.
You’re allowed to slow down. 🤍

🧠My latest 'Beyond the Balcony' challenges how we use the word 'lazy'.

I look at AuDHD, burnout, rest, and the need for empathy and understanding.

Taking a day to rest in bed isn’t lazy—it’s self-care. Your body and mind need time to recharge, and listening to that need is strength, not weakness. Rest is productive when it helps you heal and regain energy. Honor your limits and give yourself grace. #SelfCare #RestIsNotLazy #MentalHealthMatters
