Wellbeing Rx: The Imperative of Rest

The science of rest is undisputed — as humans, we need regular breaks from motion to restore energy and recover strength. And while sports athletes and coaches have long integrated rest periods into their training regimens, our output-focused knowledge work culture still largely condemns resting on the job as a sign of weakness or laziness.

Join us for the last in this series of quarterly LTEN webinars, as wellbeing coach Deborah Bonzell guides an experiential session on the science and art of rest. Together, we’ll pause to consider:

• Our entrenched reluctance to rest outside of sleep time, and its impact on work-life.
• Simple, evidence-based ways to practice rest during the workday — without taking a nap.
• Tips from the LTEN community on allowing rest during your learning offerings.
