You'll hear all seven women reflect on the ways the training impacted them.

Karen's back with a short "rest check in" on the topic of deep rest, yoga nidra and inner mothering. These unrested times are calling us not only to rest, and help others, but also to not abandon our inner selves. Abandoning ourselves is perhaps the number one way we get off the rested path. Inner mothering is key. Come hang out with Karen today as she shares on the podcast about how a practice like yoga nidra can help you mother yourself while lying down. This is the kind of rest revolution we want you to be a part of - lying down to feel rested AND "do the inner work!"

Be sure to listen to the end. Tracee leads us through a profound short practice!

The struggle to feel rested is real. Is the Barbie movie the answer? After watching the film, I wanted to talk about it here at Daring to Rest because in some ways it felt like an instructive piece on creating a rested life. I also wanted to find a perspective beyond mine. So I invited Shalini Sinha, a gender professor and anti-racist specialist in Canada, onto the podcast today to speak about the film with me. Shalini brings a perspective on the Barbie movie that you probably have not heard yet.
