The influence my yoga teacher and mentor Marcia Miller has had on my cannot be understated. I'm so excited to share her wisdom with you through my Just Rest Substack community on Feb. 27 on 💔 "Loving through heartbreak." DM me for more info. #Mindfulness #BraveSpace #OpenHeart #BrokenHeart

If the news feels like some unelected moron is eliminating all the good that the government manages to do, I see you. If you want to chat, let me know. We'll find a good place for that frustration and anger. #Resist #Resistance #RestisResistance #BurnoutTips

Lots of lessons from my days as a triathlete turns out to be useful in the sh*tstorm we find ourselves in. We need fuel, but not just food — you need the right mix of rest. Read more: https://bit.ly/4hxmtQq #RestIsRevolutionary #BurnoutRecovery #ResistAndRest #SelfCareButMakeItRadical

As I alluded in my last post, my recent fiction reads have been post-apocilyptic novels: Station 11 by Emily St. John Mandel The Leftovers by Tom Perrotta The Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler (my current read) You? #booksky #scifi #postapocilyptic

What is the weirdest thing you do for rest? 😴 Me: I find reading post-apocilypic novels to be strangely soothing. (So. Wierd. Since we're basically living in those times.) #Rest #JustRest #RestasLiberation #BurnoutPrevention

The world is a dumpster 🔥. We gotta learn to pace ourselves y'all. I used to race triathlons and half-marathons—very slowly. But my goals weren’t about speed; they were about endurance: 📖 Read 3 tips I learned here: https://bit.ly/4gxfQfM #MarathonMindset #BurnoutPrevention #PaceYourself

F'ing lunacy. Do kids not matter any more? I guess they are just a pawn in your political game.

I shouldn't have to say it here -- but if a person like me has a very professional bio, DO NOT drop me DMs hitting on me. But, because the patriarchy, I have to say it. Seriously. Just don't unless someone's profile indicates that dating is what they are here for. #ThePatriarchy #JustStop

When I started my business, I wanted to help people take better care of themselves. I soon realized we had to tackle your over-scheduled calendar first. #Sabbatical #Planning #WorkLifeBalance #SelfCare 🔗 Sign up here for "How to Plan a Sabbatical": bit.ly/4gSs1VE

Relentless. My 2025 guideword. You know what? Relentless goes with a lot of things. Releentless ... Humor Relentless ... Grace Relentless ... Confidence Relentless ... Hope So here's to a year of relentlessness. Are you with me? #Relentless #WordoftheYear #Guideword #NewYearsIntention

I just caught a bit of conversation on the #GoldenGlobes red carpet and could only think how annoying it must be for intelligent, accomplished artists to be making small talk on camera in high heels and other uncomfortable finery.

If you're in a part of the U.S. that's getting a decent amount of snow and you just feel like cozying up with a good book or movie. Do that. Honor what the weather is inviting you to do -- rest. #JustRest #Resist #WinterisHere #Renewal

My New Year's Eve Restorative Yoga class made an article on Yoga Journal again! It's even listed FIRST! Maybe that means Yoga with Adrienne didn't offer something this year. 😂 www.yogajournal.com/.../new-year... #RestorativeYoga #NewYearsIntentions #RestandRenew

I've had some time off so I've been watching my favorite Christmas television. Two episodes I didn't watch until a few years ago were from My So Called Life -- "So-Called Angels" and "Resolutions." They are now among my favorites. What are some of the lesser known Christmas episodes you love?

What a fantastic example of a lifetime of community service. #JimmyCarter #LifeofService

You are worthy of rest. #justrest #restrevolution #liberation #defythetrend
