Manage episode 412647807 series 2801548
Have you ever found yourself pushing past the point of exhaustion even though you are completely overwhelmed and tired? So many of us are experiencing burnout and mental exhaustion yet we feel as if something is wrong with us for needing rest or we are scared of slowing down. Today I am joined by Jess Connolly, author of “Tired of Being Tired”, to talk about the importance of giving things over to God, ways that we can implement rest into our lives, and self-care for women (which goes much deeper than quick fixes).
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
[03:27] “Receive God's Realistic Rest for Your Soul-Deep Exhaustion”
[07:58] We Need to Be Renewed by God Before Realistic Rest Can Work
[11:51] Equating Our Spiritual Worth in How Much We Can Do - Pushing Past The Point of Exhaustion
[19:59] Giving Things Over to God - Practicing for Heaven
[23:11] You Aren’t Broken If You Can’t Carry The Weight of The World or Handle The Pace of Our Culture
[27:01] It’s Scary to Slow Down and Rest - Rest Takes Courage and Bravery
[30:19] What Are Some Real Ways That We Can Make This a First Step of Change?
[34:51] Alicia’s Reflections: Where in Our Lives Do We Need Rest in This Season?
