A place to begin
If rest only happens after everything is complete, it may never happen. The work of restoration is to build pauses into the rhythm before exhaustion makes the decision for you.
What support can make possible
Begin with a small, repeatable practice: a quiet transition between commitments, a device-free meal, a walk, or a protected hour. The aim is not escape, but enough space to return well.
